Deltas compare each yield with the City Walk median for the same unit type. How these yields are computed

How these yields are computed

Each yield divides the median rent by the median of the last 3 months of sales — or of the last 5 sales where the last 3 months hold fewer than three. Off-plan and ready sales count alike, and each bedroom type is priced off its own sales.

Short-let rates around Citywalk Residential Building 22

Median nightly rate on Airbnb for a 7-night stay, priced across the coming year.

How short-let rates are measured

Rates are sampled for every month of the coming year, so the figure carries the full season rather than a winter or summer slice. Listing counts are what those searches returned on the first page — a floor on what the building actually lists, not a count of it. Airbnb publishes approximate coordinates, so even the tightest set — listings within 50 metres — is the building and its immediate neighbours. Where that set is too small to measure a bedroom type, the row widens to the surrounding 500-metre cluster and is marked “500m”.

Type	Nightly (AED)	AED/night/sqft	Net revenue at 80%	Long-let rent	Uplift	Short-let yield	Listings seen
1 bed500m	925	0.80	AED 208,720	AED 170,000	1.2×	7.35%	7+
2 bed500m	1,618	0.95	AED 370,745	AED 275,000	1.3×	7.42%	2+
3 bed	1,168	0.40	AED 239,738	AED 375,000	0.6×	3.07%	1+

Net revenue assumes 80% occupancy — an assumption, not a measurement.

What the net revenue deducts

Occupancy is an assumption because no Dubai source publishes it per building — at half the occupancy, halve the revenue and the yield. From the nightly rate a guest sees, net revenue deducts Airbnb's 15.5% fee, then cleaning at 2 turnovers a month and utilities, both scaled to the unit's measured floor area. Service charge and mortgage are deliberately not deducted: neither comes out of the long-let rent beside it, and a service charge is owed whichever way the unit is let, so taking it off one side only would break the comparison. Neither figure is net of income tax or furnishing. Rows marked 500m widen to the surrounding cluster, because Citywalk Residential Building 22 itself had too few listings of that type to measure.
