ADREC's average annual rent against its average sale price, Q3 2026, the median across 3 layouts, each confirmed by the register's finished-home sales. ADREC's averages are for finished homes; under each price, how many the register shows sold in the 12 months and their median size. The middle layout is the figure.
Gross yield is a year's rent over the price, before service charges, fees and empty periods, for Khalifa City as a whole; our arithmetic on the register's figures, as of 10 Nov 2026. Source: ADREC / DARI. Not investment advice.
