Source: Dubai Land Department rent registrations (Ejari), new contracts and renewals together, lease starts in the 12 months to 14 Oct 2026. Renewals usually sit below new leases, so both are shown. The typical range holds the middle half of the contracts. A bedroom count with fewer than 30 contracts is left out. Size and rent per area use the contracts that record a credible size; a bedroom count where fewer than half do shows none.
