How these are counted
459 apartments are planned in International City from 2026 to 2028, equal to 2% of the 24,476 homes let there today.
Ready prices per sqft fell in 5% of 39 buildings (counted once per bedroom type) in International City with sales in both years; the typical one moved +7.3%.
The pooled median moved +4.3%: 3.0 points less than the typical building, because different buildings traded in each year.
New-lease rents fell in 8% of 26 buildings (counted once per bedroom type) with leases in both years; the typical one moved +3.6%.
Planned completions are apartment units in projects the Land Department register lists as neither complete nor cancelled, by the year of the registered completion date. Projects already past that date and projects without one are counted separately, not spread over future years. Leases are every registered new and renewed apartment lease in the area in the last 12 months. A planned date is not a delivery forecast.
Each building counts once per bedroom type when it has at least five ready sales (or five new leases) in both the last 12 months and the 12 before. Its change is its own median price per sqft (or annual rent) now against then, so the mix of buildings that happened to trade cannot move it. Off-plan sales are left out.

About the International City figures
This record covers the 197 International City buildings with enough registered sales for a median to mean anything; 1 more has recorded activity but too little to report. Gross yields inside the area run from 6.2% to 12.0%, so the 8.6% median says much less about any one building than the building table does. The Dubai Land Department registers International City as Al Warsan First. The Dubai median for comparison is 6.8%, over the same 12-month window of Dubai Land Department and Ejari records to 2026-10-12.

Back to top ↑Common questions
- What is the rental yield in International City?
- As of 2026-10-12, the median apartment building in International City returns 8.6% gross, +1.9 pts against the Dubai median of 6.8%, across 197 buildings with enough registered Dubai Land Department sales and Ejari contracts to report (1,743 registered sales in the last 12 months). Gross means before service charge, fees and vacancy.
- What does an apartment in International City cost per square foot?
- The median is 649 AED/sqft, over registered Dubai Land Department and Ejari records to 2026-10-12.
- Are prices in International City rising?
- The median building moved +6.7% over the last 12 months against the 12 before it. That is a median across 197 buildings, so individual towers move further in both directions.
- Which building in International City yields most?
- Emirates Cluster Building EMR-11, at 12.0% gross. A top row is an outlier by construction — the sample size beside it on the table is the check.
- What do apartments in International City rent for?
- The median building rents at AED 36,000 a year, across 51 buildings with enough registered Ejari contracts to report. New contracts only, so a renewal capped by RERA is not read as the market rate.
