How this list is built One published number, in the order the table shows
Ranked by gross yield: median annual rent from new Ejari contracts over last 12 months, divided by the median of the building's sales in the same 12 months (at least 3), with the same cutoff and no older-sale fallback. Ready and off-plan sales count alike. Buildings whose rent is pooled across a project, or whose price base is below AED 300,000, are excluded: both distort the ratio.
Gross: before service charge, vacancy and fees. A high yield on few sales is often a cheap or unusual unit, not a rule.
