Zaabeel Second, year by year

How prices, sales, rents and yield have moved here, each year against the one before.

The median price per square foot rose to AED 2,645 / sq ft in Q4 2023, up 30% on the same quarter a year earlier.

What this means for you: rising prices with steady yield suggest rents are keeping pace; prices rising faster than rents mean yield is thinning. Past movement is a record, not a forecast.
