Questions
DIFC — questions
What is the rental yield in DIFC?
DIFC has a gross rental yield of 2.84%, computed from 308 real Ejari rent contracts against 96 real DLD dwelling sales, per square metre. It is gross, not net — service charges are not deducted.
Are property prices falling in DIFC?
We do not have enough real resale transactions in DIFC across both comparison windows to call a price move. We would rather say nothing than call a move off a handful of sales.
Where does this data come from?
Dubai Land Department transaction records and Ejari rent contracts — Dubai's official open data. Rents are new residential contracts only (renewals are rent-cap suppressed below market). Sales are built dwellings only (land plots and whole-building sales have a different price-per-sqm basis). Nothing here is an estimate.
Do you list properties for sale here?
No. We show real transactions — what actually sold. Listings are the portals' own data and we do not copy them; the links on this page open their live search for this community.
