Per property type
Apartment vs villa yield in Dubai South Residential District
The headline 4.49% above is a contract-weighted blend of the types below — each type's own rents divided by its own comparable sales, then weighted by how many rent contracts each type actually has. We match per type first on purpose: pooling the raw medians would divide an apartment-heavy rent sample by a villa-heavy sale sample and invent a yield that neither type has.
| Type | Gross yield | Rent /sqm | Sale /sqm | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| unit | 4.73% | AED 866 | AED 18,316 | 827 / 10,534 |
| house | 3.67% | AED 666 | AED 18,154 | 240 / 7,642 |
