Monthly price report

What homes let for in The Valley

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.

Villas and townhouses

4.9% gross

A median rent of AED 67 per sqft a year on 349 new tenancy contracts, last 6 months, against AED 1,365 per sqft paid across 55 finished sales, since 1 Jan 2026.

At today's off-plan prices (AED 1,329 per sqft, off-plan sales, last 6 months, in the register's Al Yufrah 1 district) the same rent would be 5.0%, 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 1 Oct 2026. Source: Dubai Land Department open data. Not investment advice.
