What is the difference between gross and net rental yield in Dubai?
Gross yield is annual rent divided by price; net yield subtracts service charges, maintenance, management fees, insurance and vacancy periods. Adverts quote gross figures like 8-10%, but net returns are often 2-4 percentage points lower. Always calculate net yield before deciding whether a deal actually performs.
Figures here are indicative as of July 2026 and set by third parties (government, banks, developers) — confirm the current amount before relying on it.
