The median new annual rent changed +1.6% in the trailing 12 months against the previous 12, using 28 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 Cricket Tower pay more than sitting ones?
A new tenant pays +14.3% against a renewing one, across 34 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.
