Common questions

What is the rental yield in Zenith Tower?
Zenith Tower returns 8.4% gross: a median new-contract rent of AED 80,000 a year (7 Ejari contracts in 12 months) over a price benchmark of AED 950,000 (median of 7 sales in the last 12 months, latest Jul 2026), before service charge, agency fees or vacant months.
How much does a 2 bedroom in Zenith Tower cost?
The median registered sale price is AED 950,000 (751 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 Zenith Tower selling for right now?
Registered sales of ready units in Zenith Tower over the last 12 months have a median of 751 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.
How does Zenith Tower compare with Dubai Sports City?
Its 8.4% gross yield sits +0.7 pts against the Dubai Sports City median of 7.7%, 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.
What is the registered annual rent for a 2 bedroom in Zenith Tower?
The median new annual rent is AED 80,000, from 7 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.
