Common questions
- What is the registered annual rent for a 1 bedroom in Dunes?
- The median new annual rent is AED 60,500, from 56 Ejari contracts in the trailing 12 months to 2026-10-12. These contracts cover the project, not this tower alone. Compare the same bedroom type; floor, view and condition can change an individual rent.
- Have registered rents in Dunes risen or fallen?
- The median new annual rent changed +10.0% in the trailing 12 months against the previous 12, using 56 new Ejari contracts in the current period to 2026-10-12. Different homes can appear in the two periods; this is not the change on an individual tenancy.
- Do new tenants in Dunes pay more than sitting ones?
- A new tenant pays +15.2% against a renewing one, across 88 renewal contracts in the last 12 months. This compares different new and renewal contract groups, not the same tenancy before and after a move. It is not a permitted rent increase or a guaranteed gain.
- How many apartments change hands in Dunes?
- 14 sales were registered with the Dubai Land Department in the last 12 months, alongside 56 Ejari rental contracts. Every median on this page rests on those counts.
- What is the rental yield in Dunes?
- Dunes returns 9.1% gross: a median new-contract rent of AED 60,500 a year (56 Ejari contracts in 12 months) over a price benchmark of AED 662,500 (median of 14 sales in the last 12 months, latest Aug 2026), before service charge, agency fees or vacant months.
