Dubai Market Index — Free DLD-Based Property Data
A free, regularly-updated index of the Dubai property market: rental yields by community, price-per-sqft trends, transaction volume, and the BreadCapital market-health score. Built from Dubai Land Department data — free for journalists and researchers to cite.
A free, citable read on the Dubai market
The REMAP Dubai Market Index distills millions of Dubai Land Department transaction records and live listings into a small set of honest, aggregate signals — the same numbers REMAP uses internally to flag over-priced listings and high-yield communities. It is published here for free, with no login, so journalists, analysts, and researchers can cite real market data instead of asking-price noise.
Everything below is district-level aggregate data. No individual listings, no personal data — just the market.

What this index measures
Methodology
Transaction aggregates are computed directly from Dubai Land Department records. Rental yields divide the latest area rental snapshot by the matching sale-price band. The BreadCapital Index is a 0–100 weighted score — volume growth (30%), price growth (30%), off-plan demand (20%), and rental-yield potential (20%) — where above 60 is bullish, 40–60 neutral, and below 40 bearish.
Listings are cross-referenced against transaction history to strip duplicates and bait listings, so reported averages track real settled value rather than aspirational asking prices. Figures are district-level aggregates only.
