Rental math on 2028 handover projects

Across the 107 projects in this year that publish both an entry price and an estimated gross yield, the implied gross monthly rent is:

• Median: AED 12,000/month
• Range: AED 3,185 – AED 169,167/month

Numbers are entry-price × published yield ÷ 12. Actual net rent typically lands 15–25% lower after annual service charges, DEWA connection, agency letting fees and management. Use it as an ordering signal across projects in the same slice, not as an absolute cash-flow forecast.
