A typical residential sale here is AED 1,850,000 for about 2,745 sqft, from 10,710 recorded sales.
Prices here have moved +457.6% across the 232 months (Apr 2007 – Aug 2026) of Land Department records we hold — a pace of +9% a year if it continued.
That is the whole 232 months of records for this area, expressed as an annual pace. It averages across every cycle in that period, so it describes the long run rather than the market today. Treat it as history, not a forecast.
Nearly all recorded sales in Al Thanayah Fourth are completed homes, so the median above describes ready stock rather than the area as a whole.
Median size and price for every bedroom count with at least 15 recorded sales. Dubai Land Department records a room count on nearly every sale, so this is a breakdown of real transactions rather than an estimate.
Rent is matched by size here, not bedroom count, so the column is what homes of that sizeactually let for — the question behind the question, answered from real contracts. Ejari does also carry a bedroom count on most tenancies, and the rent-by-bedroom figures on this page read that field directly.
| Size | Typical home | Typical price | Per sqft | Typical rent | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 beds | 2,118 sqft | AED 1,600,000 | AED 673/sqft | AED 165,000/yr 457 tenancies | 4,519 |
| 3 beds | 3,436 sqft | AED 2,300,000 | AED 669/sqft | AED 250,000/yr 482 tenancies | 6,161 |
| 4 beds | 6,729 sqft | AED 2,006,344 |
Every other figure on this page is about homes that sold. This is the standing stock, from the Land Department’s unit register.

What it costs to rent here
Median annual rent, by size of home.
A year’s rent against what that size of home actually sold for in Emirate Living over the same twelve months — both from registered records.
| Size | Costs now | Rents for | Gross yield | Sales behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 beds | AED 3.6M | AED 165,000/yrby bedroom · 457 new lets | 4.6% | 212 |
| 3 beds | AED 5.8M | AED 250,000/yrby bedroom · 482 new lets | 4.3% | 168 |
The best gross yield here is on a 2 beds at 4.6%. Smaller homes almost always yield more than larger ones — they cost proportionally less and rent for proportionally more.
Why this is lower than yields quoted elsewhere
The usual shortcut divides today’s rent by an average price — and in a market that has risen as far as Dubai’s, the average is a historical price. On that arithmetic a 2 beds here reads 10.3% instead of 4.6%, because it prices the home at AED 1.6M — the median across every sale on record — rather than the AED 3.6M it costs today. Every figure above uses the same twelve months on both sides.
What it returns after service charges
We hold no filed budget for this one, so this starts from a placeholder rather than a measurement — it’s on the service charge invoice, or on RERA’s Service Charge Index. How to check it.
| Size | Charge / year | Rent after it | Gross | Net |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 beds | AED 31,777 | AED 133,223 | 4.6% | 3.7% |
| 3 beds | AED 51,547 | AED 198,453 | 4.3% | 3.4% |
Still not the final number: agency commission on re-letting, and any month the home sits empty, both come out of net rent too. This subtracts the service charge only, because it is the one cost that is the same every year whether or not the home is let.
Gross yield: rent before costs. Service charges, agency commission, and any month the home sits empty all come out of it — in Dubai the service charge alone is commonly a fifth to a third of the rent, so treat these as the ceiling rather than the return.
a 2-bedroom rents for a median AED 165,000/yr, a 3-bedroom for AED 250,000/yr, a 4-bedroom for AED 430,000/yr. These are medians of tenancy contracts registered with Ejari in Emirate Living over the last twelve months — what tenants agreed to pay, not advertised asking rents. This table matches rent to homes by floor area, which every Ejari contract records. Ejari carries a bedroom count on most contracts too, and the rent-by-bedroom figures on this page read that field rather than inferring it from size.
Closest to Al Thanayah Fourth on median price per square foot. Areas with fewer than 10 recorded sales are left out, because a median drawn from a handful of deals is not worth comparing against.

Matched to tenancies by floor area, so this is what homes of each size actually let for. Ejari does also record a bedroom count on most contracts — the rent-by-bedroom table below reads that field directly. Renewing tenants pay about 13% less per sqft than someone signing a new lease here.
The median residential sale price in Emirate Living is AED 1,402/sqft, which works out at about AED 1.85M for a typical 2,745 sqft home. That is a median of 10,710 sales actually registered with the Dubai Land Department, not of asking prices.
Gross yields in Emirate Living run about 4.6% on a 2-bedroom, 4.3% on a 3-bedroom, dividing a year of registered rent by what that size actually sold for over the same twelve months. Smaller homes yield more. These are gross figures: service charges, agency commission and void periods are not deducted, and in Dubai the service charge alone commonly takes a fifth to a third of the rent.
Mostly, but not entirely. 251 of the 316 units with a recorded tenure in Emirate Living are freehold, so foreign ownership is possible in most buildings here and not all — check the specific title before committing.
0% of the 10,710 registered sales in Emirate Living were off-plan, and the rest were completed homes. The two trade at different prices, so a single blended price per square foot for the area would describe neither.
