What each size costs in Dubai Marina
Typical size and price for every bedroom count. A size with at least 15 recorded sales is well evidenced; a size with fewer is still shown, with a red (i) and the number of sales behind it. The Dubai Land Department records the number of bedrooms on nearly every sale, so these figures come from real sales, not estimates. The main price is for the last 12 months. The typical price across every sale on record sits under it.
Rent: the typical rent on new lets, matched by bedrooms or by size.

The Land Department files these villas under its area Marsa Dubai, which this page covers as Dubai Marina. Every villa record in that Land Department area is counted.
The Land Department's buildings file lists 24 villas in Marsa Dubai; 0 of them stand alone on a plot in the land register with both sizes recorded, which is fewer than the 30 needed, so no plot band is shown.

What it returns
A year of rent compared with what completed homes of that size actually sold for in Dubai Marina over the same twelve months. Rents come from Ejari rent contracts and prices from recorded sales. Off-plan sales are left out of the price, because rent is paid on built homes and off-plan sells at a premium. A red (i) marks a figure that rests on few records, with how many.
| Size | Price now, ready homes | Rents for | Yield before costs | Ready sales, 12 months |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | AED 1.1M | AED 65,000/yrby bedroom · 763 new lets | 5.9% | 155 |
| 1 bed | AED 1.78M | AED 95,000/yrby bedroom · 4,711 new lets | 5.4% | 1,017 |
| 2 beds | AED 2.7M | AED 145,000/yrby bedroom · 3,854 new lets | 5.4% | 890 |
| 3 beds | AED 4.28M | AED 217,085/yrby bedroom · 1,397 new lets | 5.1% | 449 |
| 4 beds | AED 5M | AED 300,000/yrby bedroom · 242 new lets | 6.0% | 106 |
| 5 beds | AED 12.9M | AED 717,500/yrby bedroom · 22 new lets | 5.6% | 6 |
Among the sizes with enough sales, the highest yield before costs here is on a 4 beds at 6.0%. 4-bedroom apartments here yield more than studio apartments: 6.0% against 5.9%.
Why this is lower than yields quoted elsewhere
The usual shortcut divides today’s rent by an average price. In a market that has risen as far as Dubai’s, the average is a historical price. Worked out with the typical price across every sale on record (AED 780K), a studio here reads 8.3% instead of 5.9%. The yield in the table above uses the AED 1.1M a completed one costs today. Every figure above uses the same twelve months, and completed homes only, on both sides.
What it returns after service charges
Starting from the typical owners’ association budget in this area — AED 19/sqft across 40 projects, recorded for 2022–2026 (25 for 2026). Charges have risen since then, so replace it with your own invoice if you have one. How to check it.
| Size | Charge / year | Rent after it | Yield before costs | Yield after service charge |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | AED 9,134 | AED 55,866 | 5.9% | 5.1% |
| 1 bed | AED 15,596 | AED 79,404 | 5.4% | 4.5% |
| 2 beds | AED 25,483 | AED 119,517 | 5.4% | 4.4% |
| 3 beds | AED 37,171 | AED 179,914 | 5.1% | 4.2% |
| 4 beds | AED 56,219 | AED 243,782 | 6.0% | 4.9% |
Only the service charge is taken off.
A separate reserve-fund line appears in 40 of the 40 project budgets counted together here; the middle of those is AED 1.6/sqft.
Yield before costs: a year of rent as a share of the price.

Common questions about Dubai Marina
How much is rent in Dubai Marina?
The typical rent (the median: half of the rent contracts were above this, half below) in Dubai Marina is AED 65,000/yr for a studio, AED 95,000/yr for a 1-bedroom, AED 145,000/yr for a 2-bedroom and AED 217,085/yr for a 3-bedroom. These rents come from the rent contracts recorded in Ejari (Dubai's rent registration system) in Dubai Marina over the last twelve months. They are what tenants agreed to pay, not advertised asking rents. Each rent is matched to homes by bedroom count where Ejari records one, which most contracts do, and by floor area where it does not. Each row on this page says which.
How much do properties cost in Dubai Marina?
The typical price (the median: half sold for more than this, half for less) for residential sales in Dubai Marina was AED 1,992/sqft over the 30 days to 7 October 2026, from the 223 sales recorded so far for those days. Late records are still arriving, so that count can grow. Over the 12 months to 7 October 2026, homes here typically sold for about AED 2.73M and measured about 1,254 sqft (3,451 sales). These come from sales recorded by the Dubai Land Department. They are what buyers paid, not asking prices.
What rental yield does Dubai Marina give?
The yield before costs on ready homes in Dubai Marina is about 5.9% on a studio apartment, 5.4% on a 1-bedroom apartment, 5.4% on a 2-bedroom apartment and 5.1% on a 3-bedroom apartment. That is a year of rent divided by what completed homes of that size sold for over the same twelve months. 4-bedroom apartments here yield more than studio apartments: 6.0% against 5.9%. Service charges, agency commission and empty periods are not taken off, and in Dubai the service charge alone commonly takes a fifth to a third of the rent.
Is Dubai Marina freehold?
Yes. Every unit in Dubai Marina whose ownership type is recorded in the Land Department's register is freehold, so foreign nationals may own property here outright. The register holds 55,466 units for the area.
How have property prices in Dubai Marina changed over the last two years?
The typical price (the median: half sold for more than this, half for less) of ready homes in Dubai Marina was AED 1,997/sqft in Q3 2026 (633 sales), against AED 1,672/sqft in Q4 2024 (1,126 sales). That is a change of +19.4% across those quarters. By quarter, the typical price of ready homes was AED 1,672/sqft in Q4 2024, AED 1,816/sqft in Q1 2025, AED 1,889/sqft in Q2 2025, AED 1,859/sqft in Q3 2025, AED 2,055/sqft in Q4 2025, AED 2,079/sqft in Q1 2026, AED 1,854/sqft in Q2 2026 and AED 1,997/sqft in Q3 2026. Off-plan sales had a typical price of AED 3,788/sqft in Q3 2026 (100 sales) and are never counted together with ready homes here. These are typical prices of recorded sales, not a price index: a quarter's move against the one before it partly reflects which homes sold.
Is Dubai Marina mostly off-plan or completed homes?
22% of the 3,451 sales recorded in Dubai Marina in the 12 months to 7 October 2026 were off-plan, and the rest were recorded as existing property rather than off-plan. The two sell at different prices, so one price per square foot for both together would describe neither.
Prices by quarter, Q4 2024 to Q3 2026
Typical sale price per sqft in Dubai Marina, by calendar quarter of the sale date, with ready homes and off-plan sales kept apart. Only complete quarters are shown. A quarter with 60 or more sales is well evidenced; one with fewer is still shown, with a red (i) and the number of sales, and no change against a year earlier is worked out from it.
