What is 租金收益率?
年度净租金收入占房产价值的百分比，是衡量迪拜投资性房产每年现金回报的核心指标。公式为：年净租金收入 ÷ 房产价值 × 100%。迪拜住宅租金收益率通常在5-8%之间，商业地产为7-10%。
Description
Rental yield is one of the most fundamental metrics in real estate investing. It tells you how much income a property produces each year compared to what you paid for it. A higher yield means better cash-on-cash returns.
There are two common forms: gross rental yield (annual rent divided by purchase price) and net rental yield (annual rent minus operating expenses, divided by purchase price). Net yield gives a more realistic picture because it accounts for service charges, maintenance, and vacancy.
In real estate investment, this concept directly affects return calculations and due diligence analysis for any property acquisition.

How to interpret
A gross yield above 7% in Dubai is considered strong, especially in areas with stable tenant demand. Yields between 5% and 7% are average for established communities. Below 5% suggests the property is priced at a premium relative to its income potential.
Always compare yield with the property risk profile. A high yield (above 9%) can signal either a genuine bargain or an area with elevated vacancy risk and tenant turnover.
迪拜市场背景
Dubai rental yields rank among the highest globally, typically ranging from 5% to 8.5% depending on the area and property type. This compares favorably to London (2-3%), New York (3-4%), and Singapore (2.5-3.5%).
Areas like Jumeirah Village Circle and International City deliver the highest yields due to lower entry prices, while premium locations like Palm Jumeirah offer lower yields but stronger capital appreciation potential.
UAE has no personal income tax on rental earnings, which means the gross-to-net gap is smaller than in most countries. This makes Dubai particularly attractive for income-focused investors.
