See the market
before you decide.
Owners, Agents and Investors want to know their options. See registered rents and current asking rates across Dubai on one chart.
What tenants signed, and what the market is asking.
Registered Dubai tenancy contracts against current advertised rates. The gap between the two is where your area is heading for long term and short/mid-stays.
Where these numbers come from
Dubai Land Department open data — registered Ejari tenancy contracts, and property sale transfers used only for the yield calculation. Live asking rates from major Dubai property portals and short‑stay platforms. Asking rates are advertised, not agreed.
The chart above is the quick look.
Ask the assistant about your own building and it will tell you what that building itself registers, not just the area around it. It can also send you a written report for communities well beyond the ones on this chart. Start chatting in whatever language you prefer.

Three lines, one story
Registered Ejari rentals
Every residential tenancy in Dubai is registered. These are signed contracts — what tenants actually committed to pay, not what someone hoped for. They are the solid ground on the chart, and they look backwards: a contract registered today may have been agreed a month ago.
Asking rates
What landlords and operators are advertising right now, annualised so they sit on the same scale. Nobody has paid these yet — they are what the market is reaching for. They move first, which is exactly why they are worth watching.
The gap between them
Asks above registered rents means the market is pushing for more than tenants have been signing. Asks below means owners are cutting to fill. Which way that gap is travelling over time is the read. How wide it is, is your market opportunity.
Rent and price, on one basis
The gauge also carries property sale transfers — actual registered sales — over the same window as the rents, aligned per square foot. That is the only honest way to put the two together: a rent and a price only mean something against each other when they cover the same period, the same segment and the same amount of floor.
It is also why the yield figure is worth reading. It is not a projection and it is not our estimate — it is what has been signed, over what has been paid, in that segment, in that window.
Ask about your own building or community — the assistant has figures beyond the areas on this chart, in whatever language you prefer.
What it answers, depending on who you are
If you own an apartment
Before anyone quotes you anything, you can see the range yourself: what your segment has actually been signing on a year tenancy, and what is being asked now. That is the number a long lease has to beat — and the number we have to beat to be worth your while.
Owners →If you are investing
Rent and price on the same per-square-foot basis, over the same window, tells you where yield sits today rather than where a brochure says it will sit. Watch the gap move over time and you are reading direction, not a snapshot.
Investors →If you are an agent
Your client asks what a unit will earn while you are still in the meeting. Answer it there, with registered figures for that area, and you look like the person who knows the market — because you are. No forms, no waiting on a report.
Agents & partners →The gauge is the market.
Your unit is the question.
The Market Gauge is where the conversation starts, not where it ends. Tell us the building and the unit type and we will show you what yours should be doing.
