Return Drivers

  1. High Rental Yields Dubai residential rental yields average 7%–9%, among the highest globally.

  2. Diversified Asset Pool Returns are aggregated across multiple properties, diluting the impact of individual vacancies or defaults.

  3. 5R Operational Model Through Rehab, Rent, REY-ize, Refinancing, Recycling, overall yields can be enhanced by 15%+.
