See the market
before you decide.
Registered rents, current asking rates and sale transfers for the areas we operate in — on one chart, refreshed every week. The same figures we use before we quote anybody.
Closed rents. Asking rents. Direction.
Registered Ejari rental contracts show what tenants actually signed in past 90 days. Live asking prices indicate where the market wants to go next for annual tenancies and short and mid-term stays. The gap between them is the direction your area is going.
Dubai Marina
Three lines, one story
Every figure on the gauge carries the count behind it. A thin count is information too — it never gets hidden or smoothed.
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 this week 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 week to week is the read. How wide it is, is your negotiating room.
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.
Apartments only, and only the areas we work in. We would rather be right about eight areas than vague about forty.
These are the areas that work for short and mid-term stays, so they are the areas we manage in, and the only ones we publish figures for. If your apartment is somewhere else, tell us anyway — we will say honestly whether it is one we can serve.
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 this week. 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 a few weeks 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.
An area median 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.
