Net yield for every home type and every project is in the area reportOff-plan or ready.
Off-plan premium, same home type
Apartment · 1 bed: off-plan homes sold at 83% above ready ones per sq ft in the last 12 months (1,149 AED/sqft against 628 AED/sqft, medians of 757 and 722 sales).
Same home type, not the same buildings: off-plan stock is often newer, so the gap is not a forecast of resale prices. Not investment advice.
