Every community, by registered sales

172 communities inside those districts, each with its own price record, and the gross yield the registered record actually supports where there is enough of both sides to settle it. A district can hold several markets: Marsa Dubai contains both Dubai Marina and JBR, and they do not trade at the same price.

Highest registered rental yields in Dubai

Gross yield from registered Ejari rents set against registered sale prices, for communities with at least 300 registered sales in the last 12 months. Not asking rents, and not an advertised return.
