The agent's view
“In Ellington Beach House, landlords ask 25% over what tenants sign. That is your opening argument. Bring the signed figure, and ask which units have been empty longest.”

How it works, and where the numbers come from

1. What tenants signed

Median new Ejari lease for the building and home type, 16 Oct 2025–15 Oct 2026, from the Dubai Land Department. Also the renewal median.

2. What landlords ask

Median advert for the same building and home type, listing sites on 16 Oct 2026. The gap is your first argument.

3. How much choice

Homes for rent now against leases signed in a year, and leases ending in the next 60 days. More choice, more room to push.

4. Your offer

Points from 1–3 set the room to negotiate (high, medium, low) and an opening offer 1–6% under the signed figure.
