“Under 3”: fewer than 3 registered records, so no figure is shown (no figures from single transactions). Gross yield needs enough ready apartment sales and apartment rent contracts in the same months.

Not enough data: sales, median price, median per sq ft (under 3 sales with a bedroom count for each unit type).

Not enough data: 5 bedrooms or more (under 3 sales and under 3 rent contracts each).

Without a bedroom count in the DLD data: under 3 sales and 3 rent contracts (villas, whole buildings, land, offices and shops). They count in all figures above and in the table by property type.

Gross yield by unit type: median annual rent per sq ft divided by the median price per sq ft of ready properties. The price columns also include off-plan sales, so dividing them by the rent gives a different number.

Figures based on fewer than 3 records are not shown. Indicative figures from registered transactions and rent contracts, not a valuation of any unit.
