- Gross yield shown before costs (management fees, utilities, cleaning, platform fees, and service charges).
- Yields above are gross. Net yields can be 30–50% lower after operating costs.
Short supporting notes with sources
- Short-term yields in Dubai averaged about 8.1% (citywide) in 2025 studies. This supports the yields above.
- Market listings show hotel apartments in Al Jaddaf rent from AED 95k–350k per year, implying strong short-term demand for serviced units.
- Day-rate listings for furnished units in Al Jaddaf commonly show ~AED 450–650 per night for 1-BR to 2-BR apartments, which aligns with the nightly rates used.
- Branded penthouse pricing and prestige projects (e.g., Azizi David) support the higher psf ranges used for premium units.
How to use these numbers
- Treat the table as a planning tool. Adjust nightly rates and occupancy to match your expected options.
- Subtract operating costs (management, utilities, cleaning, platform fees). Then calculate net yield.
- Compare short-term yield vs long-term rent to decide the best strategy for each unit type.
- For branded penthouses, expect higher service costs and lower occupancy volatility. But they can command premium nightly rates.
Tips for Buyers
- Choose apartments with creek or skyline views for higher value.
- Invest in serviced apartments for short-term rental income.
- Buy at early launch stage to secure best prices.
