Per property type
Apartment vs villa yield in Wadi Al Safa
The headline 4.06% 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 | 4.08% | AED 812 | AED 19,900 | 436 / 1,076 |
| house | 4.05% | AED 817 | AED 20,178 | 482 / 799 |

Questions
Wadi Al Safa — questions
What is the rental yield in Wadi Al Safa?
Wadi Al Safa has a gross rental yield of 4.06%, computed from 482 real Ejari rent contracts against 1076 real DLD dwelling sales, per square metre. It is gross, not net — service charges are not deducted.
Are property prices falling in Wadi Al Safa?
Resale prices fell 14.2% over the last 90 days versus the 90 before, measured on median AED per square metre of real DLD resale transactions (25 sales then, 23 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.
