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 Dubai Creek Harbour
The calculator starts from Dubai Creek Harbour: 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.

The published DLD rent data records 3,819 apartment rent observations for Dubai Creek Harbour, spread across 17 source projects, under the source label Al Khairan First, with a median of AED 124 per square foot per year, the same publication also records 2 villa observations here, the published sale medians for the same area run from AED 2,273 per sq ft for a 3-bedroom to AED 2,315 for a 1-bedroom, averaging 225 observations per project.

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.
