A typical residential sale here is AED 2,200,000 for about 2,789 sqft, from 4,748 recorded sales.

Prices here have moved +343.5% across the 229 months (Jul 2007 – Aug 2026) of Land Department records we hold — a pace of +8% a year if it continued.

That is the whole 229 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 Wadi Al Safa 6 are completed homes, so the median above describes ready stock rather than the area as a whole.

What each size costs in Wadi Al Safa 6

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.

What it costs to rent here

Median annual rent, by size of home.

  • 2 bedsAED 174,996/yr
  • 3 bedsAED 250,000/yr

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.

What it returns

A year’s rent against what that size of home actually sold for in Arabian Ranches I over the same twelve months — both from registered records.

SizeCosts nowRents forGross yieldSales behind it
2 bedsAED 3.88MAED 174,996/yrby bedroom · 99 new lets4.5%40
3 bedsAED 5MAED 250,000/yrby bedroom · 278 new lets5.0%98

The best gross yield here is on a 3 beds at 5.0%. 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 9.5% instead of 4.5%, because it prices the home at AED 1.84M — the median across every sale on record — rather than the AED 3.88M 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.

SizeCharge / yearRent after itGrossNet
2 bedsAED 33,285AED 141,7114.5%3.7%
3 bedsAED 51,923AED 198,0775.0%4.0%

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.

Common questions about Arabian Ranches I

How much is rent in Arabian Ranches I?

a 2-bedroom rents for a median AED 174,996/yr, a 3-bedroom for AED 250,000/yr. These are medians of tenancy contracts registered with Ejari in Arabian Ranches I 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.

The median residential sale price in Arabian Ranches I is AED 1,426/sqft, which works out at about AED 2.2M for a typical 2,789 sqft home. That is a median of 4,748 sales actually registered with the Dubai Land Department, not of asking prices.

What rental yield does Arabian Ranches I give?

Gross yields in Arabian Ranches I run about 4.5% on a 2-bedroom, 5.0% 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.

Is Arabian Ranches I freehold?

Mostly, but not entirely. 47 of the 68 units with a recorded tenure in Arabian Ranches I are freehold, so foreign ownership is possible in most buildings here and not all — check the specific title before committing.

Is Arabian Ranches I mostly off-plan or completed homes?

0% of the 4,748 registered sales in Arabian Ranches I 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.
