What the leases say about Arabian Ranches 2
3,310 Ejari leases 16 Oct 2025–15 Oct 2026, and 430 adverts. Each finding has its chart below.
- New 1-bed rents rose 1.0% this year, like for like. Median new 1-bed: AED 57,500 in 2024, AED 55,000 in 2025, AED 56,000 in 2026 (1 Jan–15 Oct each year). Dubai, like for like: −5.4%. The table above (AED 55,000) covers the 12 months to 15 Oct 2026.
- Renewing a 1-bed is cheaper than moving. We compare a 1-bed in the same building with a size within 15%. A new tenant pays a median 4% more than a tenant who renews. That is about AED 1,970 a year on a typical renewal rent of AED 52,000.
- Adverts ask 2% under signed. A 1-bed advert asks AED 94 a sq ft; the 119 new 1-bed leases of 16 Oct 2025–15 Oct 2026 were signed at AED 96. Recent tenants signed for more than adverts ask now, so an advert at the asking price is not dear here.
- Cheapest 1-bed for its size: Rukan, AED 91 a sq ft, the median of its 141 1-bed leases (typical rent AED 55,650). The median 1-bed lease in Arabian Ranches 2 is AED 96 a sq ft.

Same weeks each year so the season does not skew it. New leases only: renewals follow the market with a lag. The change compares the same building, bedrooms and size band in both years; the medians can move differently because the mix of homes changes.

1 bed flats: median rent per sq ft by building, buildings with 10+ 1-bed leases, 16 Oct 2025–15 Oct 2026

- Dearest per sq ft: Rukan Residence, AED 100 for a 1-bed

How we worked it out, and the limits
Updated 21 Oct 2026. Leases to 15 Oct 2026; adverts of 16 Oct 2026.
Leases. Source: Dubai Land Department Ejari rent contracts. We use homes only, one unit for each contract, starting 16 Oct 2025–15 Oct 2026. There are 3,310 in Arabian Ranches 2, and 1,504 of them are new. Bedrooms come from the Ejari unit type. "3 bed" means 3 or more. Every rent is a median: half the leases are above it.
New and renewal. "New" is a new tenant or a new contract. "Renewal" is the same contract, renewed. Renewals are often registered weeks late. Thus the latest month shows too few renewals. Like for like means the same building, the same bedrooms and a size band 15% wide. Leases with no building name are left out of this test. A group needs 5 or more of each: new leases and renewals.
Adverts. We use active yearly rent adverts from listing sites on 16 Oct 2026. We put each advert in Arabian Ranches 2 by the building or community name in the advert. There are 430 adverts after we remove repeats. A repeat has the same building, bedrooms, size and price. One home can still show more than once. Thus "for rent now" is approximate. Adverts are matched to a building by name.
Not used. The Ejari nearest-metro field names a station but no distance, so we do not compare metro and non-metro homes here. Floor, view, parking and furnishing are not in the lease record.
