What the transaction data says
Dubai South is still a thin resale register — just 47 DLD sales in 90 days at a median of AED 1.66M (AED 1,463/sqft) — so each closing carries real pricing weight. Dubai South's transacted base a year ago was too small for a meaningful year-on-year price comparison, so we deliberately publish none.
On the rental side, 46 tenancy contracts registered in the window, the median annual rent runs at AED 88,595 (AED 75/sqft). That works out to a moderate 5.3% gross yield on Dubai South transacted values, compressing to roughly 5.8% at today's asking prices.
There are 21 live listings on the portals right now marketed by 14 different agencies, against a register of 47 closed sales in 90 days.

About this data
Transacted prices, rents, yields and transaction counts from DLD (Dubai Land Department) data via the dld-market service, 90-day window ending 2026-07-02, resolved to 'Dubai South (Dubai World Central)'. Asking prices and comps from live Bayut listings via the listings service, scraped 2026-07-02. This area's story is off-plan-led — pair with the off-plan pipeline data for a complete page. Snapshot refreshed monthly by the data-harvest agent.
What this snapshot can't tell you (yet):
- All DLD signals LOW confidence — Dubai South is early in its handover cycle (47 sales, 46 rent contracts in 90 days); most activity is off-plan and not in the resale/rent registers yet
- YoY trends omitted (prior-year base too small to be meaningful)
- Only 2 live asking listings found under the parent Dubai South community (inventory sits under sub-district slugs) — spread not derivable
- Comps sample limited to 2 rows; occupancy and service charge unavailable
