Madinat Dubai Almelaheyah, 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 3,084 / sq ft in Q2 2026, up 5% 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.
