Common questions
- What is the rental yield in Reef Residence?
- Reef Residence returns 8.89% gross: a median new-contract rent of AED 48,000 a year (74 Ejari contracts in 12 months) over a price benchmark of AED 540,000 (median of 11 sales in the last 12 months, latest Sept 2026), before service charge, agency fees or vacant months.
- How much does a studio in Reef Residence cost?
- The median registered sale price is AED 540,000 (1,041 AED/sqft), from 11 Dubai Land Department sales in the last 12 months. This is a price paid, not an asking price.
- What are apartments in Reef Residence selling for right now?
- Registered sales of ready units in Reef Residence over the last 12 months have a median of 1,041 AED/sqft, across 11 sales. That uses the same trailing year as the rent and yield figures, requires at least five sales, and excludes off-plan. It is a median of what traded, not a valuation of a specific unit — floor, view and condition all move a real price and none of them is in it.
- Have prices in Reef Residence risen or fallen?
- Median price per square foot moved -2.7% over the last 12 months against the 12 before it, on 11 registered sales. On a sample this size, read the direction rather than the exact figure.
- How does Reef Residence compare with Jumeirah Village Circle?
- Its 8.89% gross yield sits +0.6 pts against the Jumeirah Village Circle median of 8.26%, 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.
