Figures are indicative and for discussion only. Gross yields reflect recent community averages and exclude service charges, management and vacancy. Off-plan assumes rental income begins at handover, about three years out, so the five-year rent line reflects that wait. Golden-Visa eligibility is subject to current DLD and ICP rules.
