Common questions

What is the rental yield in Cinderella?
Cinderella returns 8.2% gross: a median new-contract rent of AED 50,000 a year (35 Ejari contracts in 12 months) over a price benchmark of AED 611,168 (median of 140 sales in the last 12 months, latest Oct 2026), before service charge, agency fees or vacant months.
How much does a studio in Cinderella cost?
The median registered sale price is AED 611,168 (1,453 AED/sqft), from 140 Dubai Land Department sales in the last 12 months. This is a price paid, not an asking price.
How does Cinderella compare with Living Legends?
Its 8.2% gross yield sits -0.2 pts against the Living Legends median of 8.4%, 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 studio in Cinderella?
The median new annual rent is AED 50,000, from 35 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.
How many apartments change hands in Cinderella?
140 sales were registered with the Dubai Land Department in the last 12 months, alongside 35 Ejari rental contracts. Every median on this page rests on those counts.
