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 The Hills — 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 The Hills 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 The Hills itself. The rest are homes of the same size in The Lakes, used where Ejari did not name the building. A red (i) marks a figure that rests on few records, with how many.

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 1.8M), a 2 beds here reads 9.4% instead of 5.8%. The yield in the table above uses the AED 2.91M 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 this building’s own owners’ association budget for 2026 — AED 20/sqft, as recorded with the Land Department. Charges have risen since then, so replace it with your own invoice if you have one. How to check it.

Common questions about The Hills

How much does a home in The Hills 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 The Hills was AED 2.91M for a 2-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 The Hills?

The typical rent (the median: half of the rent contracts were above this, half below) in The Hills is AED 170,000/yr for a 2-bedroom (45 new tenancies recorded in The Hills 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 The Hills itself.

What rental yield does The Hills give?

The yield before costs on completed homes in The Hills is about 5.8% on a 2-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 The Hills selling off-plan or as resales?

0% of the 30 home sales recorded in The Hills in the 12 months to 30 Jul 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 The Hills start selling?

The Land Department's register holds 1,006 home sales in The Hills. The earliest was recorded in Aug 2013 and the newest in Jul 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

Low competition

When The Hills handed over in April 2019, no other project in The Lakes 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 1 other project in The Lakes as not yet finished.

Buying in The Hills?

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.
