Understanding rental yields

How much rent
would you keep?

6.8%

Dubai’s average gross residential
rental yield in 2025

Engel & Völkers · FY 2025 ↗

Gross yield is annual rent divided by the purchase price. What you keep also depends on service charges, vacancy, maintenance, management, finance and tax.

This citywide average gives you some context, but it doesn’t predict the income from a particular home.
