World Islands, year by year
How prices, sales, rents and yield have moved here, each year against the one before.
Registered sales fell to 106 in 2025, down 25% on 2024.
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.
