Apartments and villas for sale in Dubai, ranked by gross yield on all-in acquisition cost — with occupancy and nightly rates measured from Airbnb calendars, and the net figure after costs and tax on every card. Prices in USD.
Dubai holiday-home permits sit in an operator portal with no public register, so Brixfox never states that a Dubai listing is licensed for short lets — the permit numbers portals print are brokerage and advertising permits, not letting authorisation. What we can show is the opposite pair: a warning where a community is known to restrict short lets, and measured Airbnb activity within a stated radius of the listing. Coordinates are tower or project centroids, so every proximity figure is a vicinity measure, not a building match.
Regulation overview only, not legal advice — verify with a local lawyer before purchase.

Gross yield is modelled from the comparable Airbnbs around each property at its bedroom count. Occupancy and ADR are measured from calendar diffs. Net yield on each card is after management, running costs and non-resident tax; it unlocks with a free account, as on every listings page. Listings with an implausible stored yield are withheld, not ranked.
