What did apartments in this area sell for?

Recorded sales in the same published DLD area MEYDAN ONE give the purchase side of a yield check. Each bedroom group carries its own count: a group with fewer than 30 registered sales is descriptive only and is marked as such.

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 Meydan One

The calculator starts from Meydan One: 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.

Questions before you buy

What are recorded rents in Meydan One?

The published DLD rent data records 6,029 apartment rent observations for Meydan One, spread across 56 source projects, with a median of AED 127 per square foot per year, the same publication also records 279 villa observations here, the published sale medians for the same area run from AED 1,733 per sq ft for a 2-bedroom to AED 1,891 for a studio, averaging 108 observations per project, under the source label Al Merkadh. Meydan One is a mixed-use district within Meydan City, developed by Meydan Group between Meydan Road and Al Khail Road, and engineered around the Meydan One Mall super-regional shopping centre that opened in 2025. The master plan covers roughly 3.67 million square feet and is designed to house up to 83,000 residents, with a planned 711-metre Dubai One residential tower, a Grand Plaza for events, a four-kilometre canal and marina, a one-kilometre indoor ski slope and a 380-metre dancing fountain.

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.
