Mixed sizes and bedrooms. Exact source project labels are not a verified match to a marketing building. Medians use the same post-filter observations. No current asking rents, short-stay revenue or predicted rent growth are included.
How should I use this in a rental yield check?
Start with the actual apartment: purchase price, internal area, bedroom count, condition and occupancy. Obtain comparable signed rents for that same building and layout. The project figures help you judge whether a proposed rent needs more evidence; they do not supply an automatic rent for the unit.
Keep gross rent separate from money left after costs. Enter the supported rent, service charges, vacancy allowance, maintenance, management and financing in the calculator. Change uncertain inputs to see how the result moves.
Run the numbers for Al Karama
The calculator starts from Al Karama: enter the agreed price and the rent you can actually support, and it shows the gross yield next to the estimated net yield after service charge, management and vacancy. The community name travels with the link, so the purchase-price field can be prefilled from the DLD building median when a verified comp exists.

What are recorded rents in Al Karama?
The published DLD rent data records 11,094 apartment rent observations for Al Karama, filed under the source area Al Karama, with a median of AED 67 per square foot per year. Al Karama is one of Dubai's oldest planned residential districts, a dense grid of mid-rise apartment blocks in Bur Dubai developed in the 1970s. It is bounded by Zabeel Park to the south and BurJuman Mall to the west, with Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Street running along its edge.
Can I calculate rental yield from these medians?
Not reliably. A project rent median combines different apartment sizes and bedrooms. Divide a supported annual rent for the actual apartment by its purchase price for a gross-yield scenario; include acquisition costs and recurring expenses for the investment decision. These project medians are not matched sale-and-rent pairs.
Are these unique rental contracts?
No. Counts describe deduplicated source observations after the existing publication checks. The source does not provide an official unique-contract identity for these aggregates. A count of one remains visible and describes only that observation.
Source, scope and methodology
Source: DLD open rental data. Counts are deduplicated source observations, not unique contracts. The existing publication applies its outlier policy and groups exact source area and project labels. Mixed apartment sizes and all source room values remain in scope. A small sample is descriptive evidence only. Project figures have no financial authority and are not used to manufacture a yield.
