Deltas compare each yield with the Barsha Heights 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.

Off-plan vs resale

Units sold off-plan in Sky Central between 2013 and 2020 went for a median of AED 3,763/sqft (AED 1.18M). The same building resells today at AED 3,199/sqft (AED 1.03M) — an uplift of -13.4%.

Based on 144 off-plan sales across the building's full history.

Why this uses the full history
This comparison is deliberately not restricted to the 24-month window used elsewhere on the page — off-plan launches mostly predate it, so the window would erase the sales being compared.

Common questions

How much does a studio in Sky Central cost?
The median registered sale price is AED 1.03M (3,199 AED/sqft), from 59 Dubai Land Department sales in the last 24 months. This is a price paid, not an asking price.
What are apartments in Sky Central selling for right now?
Registered sales of ready units in Sky Central over the last 3 months have a median of 3,389 AED/sqft, across 5 sales. That is the freshest window holding at least five, and it excludes off-plan. It is a median of what traded, not a valuation of a specific unit — floor, view and condition all move a real price and none of them is in it.
Have prices in Sky Central risen or fallen?
Median price per square foot moved -2.3% over the last 12 months against the 12 before it, on 59 registered sales. On a sample this size, read the direction rather than the exact figure.
Did off-plan buyers in Sky Central make money?
Units bought off-plan between 2013 and 2020 later resold -13.4% against their launch median. Only units that actually resold can appear, so this figure skews toward the ones that performed.
How many apartments change hands in Sky Central?
59 sales were registered with the Dubai Land Department in the last 24 months. Every median on this page rests on those counts.

Where this data stops

Service charges are not in DLD's open data, so the yield above is gross. Net return needs this building's charge per sqft.
