What the leases say about Dubailand Residence Complex
11,542 Ejari leases 16 Oct 2025–15 Oct 2026, and 2,457 adverts. Each finding has its chart below.
- New 1-bed rents rose 1.8% this year, like for like. Median new 1-bed: AED 48,000 in 2024, AED 55,000 in 2025, AED 55,000 in 2026 (1 Jan–15 Oct each year). Dubai, like for like: −5.4%. The table above (AED 56,000) 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 8% more than a tenant who renews. That is about AED 4,000 a year on a typical renewal rent of AED 49,000. The table above gives AED 56,000 new against AED 49,195 renewal. This is because the table mixes cheap and expensive buildings. The same-building figure is the fair test.
- Adverts ask 29% over signed. A 1-bed advert asks AED 88 a sq ft; the 1,214 new 1-bed leases of 16 Oct 2025–15 Oct 2026 were signed at AED 68. Offer at the signed figure.
- Cheapest 1-bed for its size: Ajmal Sarah, AED 47 a sq ft, the median of its 78 1-bed leases (typical rent AED 44,500). The median 1-bed lease in Dubailand Residence Complex is AED 61 a sq ft.
- Same size for less nearby: a new 1-bed in Liwan, 2 km away, costs AED 55,000 for 746 sq ft. That is AED 1,000 a year less than in Dubailand Residence Complex.

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 11,542 in Dubailand Residence Complex, and 5,007 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 Dubailand Residence Complex by the building or community name in the advert. There are 2,457 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.
