The citywide median of new flat leases went from AED 72,000 in Jan 26 to AED 75,000 in Sep 26. Rent per sq ft went from AED 96.9 to AED 97.6 (+0.7%). Flats under 600 sq ft moved −6.2%.
So what: the citywide median is not one building. Underwrite the unit. If it already has a tenant, the rent can only move within the RERA rental index.

Median ready-flat price per sq ft moved from AED 1,425 in Jan 26 to AED 1,373 in Sep 26. The months in between were uneven. Off-plan moved −7.8%.
So what: that is a lower entry than in January. Compare an asking price with ready sales of the same type. Off-plan launch prices are a different market. Use the registered sales band and set the status to Ready.

Registered home sales went from 14,536 in Jan 26 to 9,593 in Sep 26. Off-plan was 75% of the year's total. This is the same year, not a comparison with 2025.
So what: September was quieter than the January peak, which is when buyers have more room to negotiate. It is not, by itself, a cut in the price of a finished home. Most of this year's sales were off-plan.

Off-plan was 79,582 of 106,172 registered home sales from Jan 26 to Sep 26.
So what: a ready-flat gross yield is not the yield on an off-plan price. There is no rent until handover. Check the developer's delivery record and that payments go into the project escrow account.

Registered DLD home sales. Bar length relative to the top area.
Where off-plan is 50% or more of 2026 sales, the first figure is the gross yield at the median sale price, the price people are paying, and the ready-flat yield is the second figure. Otherwise the figure is the ready-flat yield. Before service charge, vacancy and management. Dubai South is 4.9% at the sale price and 7.6% on ready flats.
