Per property type
Apartment vs villa yield in Dubai Sports City
The headline 6.62% 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| house | 8.67% | AED 1,225 | AED 14,132 | 314 / 1,441 |
| unit | 6.22% | AED 868 | AED 13,964 | 1,603 / 1,846 |

Questions
Dubai Sports City — questions
What is the rental yield in Dubai Sports City?
Dubai Sports City has a gross rental yield of 6.62%, computed from 1603 real Ejari rent contracts against 1846 real DLD dwelling sales, per square metre. It is gross, not net — service charges are not deducted.
Are property prices falling in Dubai Sports City?
Resale prices fell 5.3% over the last 90 days versus the 90 before, measured on median AED per square metre of real DLD resale transactions (191 sales then, 238 now). Off-plan launches are excluded — developer pricing would move the median without any existing home re-pricing.
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.
