Deltas compare each yield with the Hessyan 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 Manara 3 between 2010 and 2016 went for a median of AED 1,245/sqft (AED 872,700). The same building resells today at AED 722/sqft (AED 440,000) — an uplift of -49.6%.

Based on 37 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.
