A typical residential sale here is AED 551,772 for about 678 sqft, from 5,031 recorded sales.
Prices here have moved +60.1% across the 204 months (Aug 2009 – Aug 2026) of Land Department records we hold — a pace of +3% a year if it continued.
That is the whole 204 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.
Comparing a launch price against a resale price without separating them is the most common way Dubai price-per-square-foot figures mislead.

Off-plan trades 42% above completed homes here. A single blended figure would sit between the two and describe neither.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 423 sqft | AED 400,000 | AED 903/sqft | AED 40,000/yr 1,402 tenancies | 1,932 |
| 1 bed | 769 sqft | AED 660,000 | AED 835/sqft | AED 56,000/yr 2,281 tenancies | 2,533 |
| 2 beds | 1,026 sqft | AED 928,765 |
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 International City Ph 2 & 3 over the same twelve months — both from registered records.
| Size | Costs now | Rents for | Gross yield | Sales behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | AED 492.42K | AED 40,000/yrby bedroom · 1,402 new lets | 8.1% | 539 |
| 1 bed | AED 849K | AED 56,000/yrby bedroom · 2,281 new lets | 6.6% | 741 |
| 2 beds | AED 1.24M | AED 71,000/yrby bedroom · 400 new lets | 5.7% | 178 |
| 3 beds | AED 1.3M | AED 100,000/yrby bedroom · 27 new lets | 7.7% | 27 |
The best gross yield here is on a studio at 8.1%. Smaller homes almost always yield more than larger ones — they cost proportionally less and rent for proportionally more.
a studio rents for a median AED 40,000/yr, a 1-bedroom for AED 56,000/yr, a 2-bedroom for AED 71,000/yr, a 3-bedroom for AED 100,000/yr. These are medians of tenancy contracts registered with Ejari in International City Ph 2 & 3 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 Warsan 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 22% less per sqft than someone signing a new lease here.
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 studio here reads 10.0% instead of 8.1%, because it prices the home at AED 400K — the median across every sale on record — rather than the AED 492.42K 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | AED 6,344 | AED 33,656 | 8.1% | 6.8% |
| 1 bed | AED 11,535 | AED 44,465 | 6.6% | 5.2% |
| 2 beds | AED 15,387 | AED 55,613 | 5.7% | 4.5% |
| 3 beds | AED 28,946 | AED 71,054 | 7.7% | 5.5% |
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.
The median residential sale price in International City Ph 2 & 3 is AED 1,212/sqft, which works out at about AED 551.77K for a typical 678 sqft home. That is a median of 5,031 sales actually registered with the Dubai Land Department, not of asking prices.
Gross yields in International City Ph 2 & 3 run about 8.1% on a studio, 6.6% on a 1-bedroom, 5.7% on a 2-bedroom, 7.7% 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.
Yes. Every unit in International City Ph 2 & 3 whose tenure is recorded in the Land Department's register is freehold, so foreign nationals may own property here outright. The register holds 19,057 units for the area.
42% of the 5,031 registered sales in International City Ph 2 & 3 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.
