What the leases say about Dubai Science Park
1,608 Ejari leases 16 Oct 2025–15 Oct 2026, and 839 adverts. Each finding has its chart below.
- New 1-bed rents fell 5.9% this year, like for like. Median new 1-bed: AED 65,000 in 2024, AED 70,000 in 2025, AED 70,000 in 2026 (1 Jan–15 Oct each year). Dubai, like for like: −5.4%. The table above (AED 72,000) 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 5% more than a tenant who renews. That is about AED 3,500 a year on a typical renewal rent of AED 66,500. The table above gives AED 72,000 new against AED 65,000 renewal. This is because the table mixes cheap and expensive buildings. The same-building figure is the fair test.
- Adverts ask 13% over signed. A 1-bed advert asks AED 105 a sq ft; the 384 new 1-bed leases of 16 Oct 2025–15 Oct 2026 were signed at AED 93. Offer at the signed figure.
- Cheapest 1-bed for its size: Montrose, AED 88 a sq ft, the median of its 100 1-bed leases (typical rent AED 67,250). The median 1-bed lease in Dubai Science Park is AED 89 a sq ft.
- Same size for less nearby: a new 1-bed in Remraam, 7 km away, costs AED 58,000 for 689 sq ft. That is AED 14,000 a year less than in Dubai Science Park.
Finding

Median rent on new leases, 1 Jan–15 Oct of 2024, 2025 and 2026, by bedrooms

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.

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 1,608 in Dubai Science Park, and 953 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 Dubai Science Park by the building or community name in the advert. There are 839 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.
