What homes let for in Dubai Harbour
Registered tenancy contracts from the Dubai Land Department (DLD), divided by what finished homes sold for: the gross rental yield, worked out rather than quoted.
Apartments
4.7% gross
A median rent of AED 153 per sqft a year on 699 new tenancy contracts in the community's own buildings, last 6 months, against AED 3,264 per sqft paid across 105 finished sales in the same buildings, last 6 months. Half of those contracts fell between AED 138 and AED 175 per sqft.
At today's off-plan prices (AED 4,612 per sqft, off-plan sales, last 6 months, in the register's Marsa Dubai district) the same rent would be 3.3%, before anything changes by handover.
Gross yield is a year's rent over the price, before service charges, fees and empty periods; our arithmetic on the register's figures, as of 2 Oct 2026. Source: Dubai Land Department open data. Not investment advice.
