Rents are registered Ejari contracts in the same building over the last 24 months, matched to each bedroom count by floor area, because Ejari records size rather than bedrooms. A yield is shown only where both sides have a real sample.

What the registered record shows for The Distinction is 588 registered sales on file, 21 of them in the last 12 months, and a gross yield of about 5.3%. Transaction volume matters as much as price, because it tells you how easily you could sell again.
