Common questions

What is the registered annual rent for a 1 bedroom in Manara 1?
The median new annual rent is AED 45,121, from 43 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 Manara 1 risen or fallen?
The median new annual rent changed +2.5% in the trailing 12 months against the previous 12, using 43 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 Manara 1 pay more than sitting ones?
A new tenant pays +14.2% against a renewing one, across 105 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.

1 sale was registered with the Dubai Land Department in the last 12 months, alongside 43 Ejari rental contracts. Every median on this page rests on those counts.
