The short answer

Jumeirah Village Circle rents at 7-9% gross in 2026 market data - the highest gross yield band of the six. After service charges, voids and management, expect roughly 4.3-6.5% net.

Gross to Net, Worked

On an AED 2,000,000 purchase - the Golden Visa line - 7-9% gross means AED 140,000 to AED 180,000 a year in rent before costs. Service charges, void periods between tenancies and management fees typically absorb a quarter to a third of that, which is why we quote roughly 4.3-6.5% as the net band. The exact figure depends on the building's service charge per square foot - a number that varies widely and that we will publish per community once the DLD open-data feed is connected.
