Deltas compare each yield with the Dubai South 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 The Pulse Residence Icon between 2017 and 2020 went for a median of AED 779/sqft (AED 600,000). The same building resells today at AED 936/sqft (AED 720,000) — an uplift of +20.0%.

Based on 79 off-plan sales across the building's full history.
