What would this size cost?
Enter the size from the brochure or the floor plan. We price it against what homes of that size actually sold for in Al Habtoor City — not an asking price, and not this project’s overall typical price, which mixes every size together.

What it returns
A year of rent compared with what completed homes of that size actually sold for in Al Habtoor City over the same twelve months. Prices are this project’s own recorded ready-home sales. Off-plan sales are left out because rent is paid on built homes. Rents marked this building are new rent contracts recorded in Al Habtoor City itself. The rest are homes of the same size in Business Bay, used where Ejari did not name the building. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 bed | AED 1.67M | AED 107,000/yrthis building · 141 new lets | 6.4% | 26 |
| 2 beds | AED 2.6M | AED 145,000/yrthis building · 208 new lets | 5.6% | 34 |
| 3 beds | AED 3.72M | AED 210,000/yrthis building · 51 new lets | 5.7% | 10 |
| 4 beds | AED 5.68M | AED 309,999/yrsame size in Business Bay · 25 new lets | 5.5% | 4 |
| 6 beds | AED 27.05M | AED 1,700,000/yrsame size in Business Bay · 5 new lets | 6.3% | 2 |
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 1.55M), a 1 bed here reads 6.9% instead of 6.4%. The yield in the table above uses the AED 1.67M 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 18/sqft across 41 projects, recorded for 2019–2026 (16 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 bed | AED 16,051 | AED 90,949 | 6.4% | 5.4% |
| 2 beds | AED 27,518 | AED 117,482 | 5.6% | 4.5% |
| 3 beds | AED 36,161 | AED 173,839 | 5.7% | 4.7% |
Only the service charge is taken off.
A separate reserve-fund line appears in 39 of the 41 project budgets counted together here; the middle of those is AED 1.1/sqft.

Common questions about Al Habtoor City
How much does a home in Al Habtoor City cost?
Over the last twelve months, the typical price (the median: half sold for more than this, half for less) of a completed home in Al Habtoor City was AED 1.67M for a 1-bedroom (26 ready sales), AED 2.6M for a 2-bedroom (34 ready sales) and AED 3.72M for a 3-bedroom (10 ready sales). These come from sales recorded by the Dubai Land Department. They are what buyers paid, not asking prices. Only completed homes are counted: off-plan sales are left out, because they sell at a premium and are not the same purchase.
How much is rent in Al Habtoor City?
The typical rent (the median: half of the rent contracts were above this, half below) in Al Habtoor City is AED 107,000/yr for a 1-bedroom (141 new tenancies recorded in Al Habtoor City itself), AED 145,000/yr for a 2-bedroom (208 new tenancies recorded in Al Habtoor City itself) and AED 210,000/yr for a 3-bedroom (51 new tenancies recorded in Al Habtoor City itself). These rents come from the new rent contracts recorded in Ejari (Dubai's rent registration system) over the last twelve months. They are what tenants agreed to pay, not advertised asking rents. Ejari names the building on these contracts, so every figure above is a tenancy recorded in Al Habtoor City itself.
What rental yield does Al Habtoor City give?
The yield before costs on completed homes in Al Habtoor City is about 6.4% on a 1-bedroom, 5.6% on a 2-bedroom and 5.7% on a 3-bedroom. That is a year of rent divided by what completed homes of that size sold for over the same twelve months. Rent and price both come from the same period, which is why these read lower than yields quoted against an all-time average price. 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 Al Habtoor City selling off-plan or as resales?
0% of the 77 home sales recorded in Al Habtoor City in the 12 months to 30 Sep 2026 were off-plan, and the rest were recorded as existing property rather than off-plan. That period ends at this project's own newest recorded home sale rather than today, so a development that finished selling years ago still reports the year it was actually trading.
When did Al Habtoor City start selling?
The Land Department's register holds 1,705 home sales in Al Habtoor City. The earliest was recorded in Jun 2016 and the newest in Sep 2026. That is when a home sale here was first recorded. It is not the same as when the project launched or completed: the register of sales carries no build date, so we do not publish one.

Handover competition
Moderate competitionWhen Al Habtoor City handed over in February 2022, 5 other projects in Business Bay had a handover date on record within six months either side — a reference point for how crowded that period was. The Land Department's projects file of 15 Jun 2026 lists 49 other projects in Business Bay as not yet finished. None of the 5 listed below is among them.

Buying in Al Habtoor City?
Everything above is free and stays free. What this page cannot tell you is what your unit is worth — the typical price here covers every size at once, and a two-bedroom can be 1,062 or 1,558 sqft. Our report matches comparable sales to one unit's size, and adds the three checks that need a person to look things up in the Land Department's own systems on the day: the agent's licence, the project's escrow, and its registered status.
