Common questions

What is the rental yield in Executive Bay-A?
Executive Bay-A returns 7.5% gross: a median new-contract rent of AED 75,000 a year (17 Ejari contracts in 12 months) over a price benchmark of AED 995,000 (median of 7 sales in the last 12 months, latest Oct 2026), before service charge, agency fees or vacant months.
How much does a 1 bedroom in Executive Bay-A cost?
The median registered sale price is AED 995,000 (1,432 AED/sqft), from 7 Dubai Land Department sales in the last 12 months. This is a price paid, not an asking price.
What are apartments in Executive Bay-A selling for right now?
Registered sales of ready units in Executive Bay-A over the last 12 months have a median of 1,432 AED/sqft, across 7 sales. That uses the same trailing year as the rent and yield figures, requires at least five sales, and excludes off-plan. Floor, view and condition move a specific unit's price around it.
Have prices in Executive Bay-A risen or fallen?
Median price per square foot moved +8.8% over the last 12 months against the 12 before it, on 7 sales with a price per square foot. On a sample this size, read the direction rather than the exact figure.
How does Executive Bay-A compare with Business Bay?
Its 7.5% gross yield sits +0.9 pts against the Business Bay median of 6.6%, computed the same way at the same bedroom grain. Gross yield divides the median annual rent from new registered Ejari contracts starting in the last 12 months by the median price of the building's registered sales in the last 12 months (at least 3 sales) for the same bedroom type, with ready and off-plan sales counted alike.
