Price Analysis, Extra Costs & Other Considerations

Explore a detailed price analysis of rental properties in Dubai, including average rates across popular areas. Understand additional costs such as utility bills, security deposits, and agency fees, along with key considerations like tenancy contracts, maintenance responsibilities, and community features.

How to Evaluate Property Prices Before Renting a Property in Dubai

Combine Bayut’s Dubai Transactions feed, Market Trends dashboard, and TruEstimate™ insights to benchmark asking rents against real-time deals. These tools reveal whether a listing sits under, at, or above the neighbourhood average, giving you solid grounds for negotiation.

What are the Fees for Renting a Property in Dubai

  • Security Deposit: 5% of annual rent for unfurnished units, 10% for furnished.
  • Agency Commission: Typically 5% of the annual rent.
  • Ejari Registration: AED 120 including fees.
  • DEWA Setup: AED 2,000 for apartments, AED 4,000 for villas, plus AED 130 activation.
  • Chiller Charges: Varies by provider (e.g. Empower, Emicool).
  • Maintenance: Minor repairs may be the tenant's responsibility, based on contract.
  • Move-in Permit: Required in many buildings, usually free but needs approval.
  • Housing Fee: 5% of annual rent, billed monthly via DEWA.
  • VAT: Applies to services like Ejari and cooling, based on provider.
  • Post-dated Cheques: As per agreed payment schedule.
  • Moving Costs: AED 1,500 to AED 2,500 for a 1–2 bedroom unit.

Understanding Rental Increases in Dubai

Rental increases are governed by RERA regulations. Landlords can only raise rent if it aligns with the official RERA Rental Index, which compares current rent with market benchmarks. Any increase must be communicated at least 90 days before renewal. Tenants can check eligibility for rent hikes using RERA’s rental calculator or through agents listed on Bayut.

How to Resolve Disputes Between Landlord and Tenant in Dubai

If informal talks fail, file a case at the Rental Dispute Centre. Submit your Ejari certificate, tenancy contract, correspondence and receipts. Mediation or tribunal hearings typically conclude within weeks, covering repair obligations, deposit deductions or eviction claims.

Can You Terminate a Lease Before It Expires in Dubai?

Early termination is allowed only when the contract contains a cancellation clause specifying notice and penalty. Without such a clause, breaking the lease risks loss of deposit or legal action. Negotiate clear terms before signing, especially if job circumstances could change.

Rights and Responsibilities of Tenants in Dubai

Tenants are entitled to a safe, well-maintained residence, reasonable privacy, and timely major repairs. Obligations include punctual rent payment, responsible use of the property, and adherence to community rules.

Can You Rent a Shared Property in Dubai?

Yes, shared accommodation is allowed in many areas, especially among working professionals. However, it must comply with Dubai Municipality guidelines, and all occupants must be registered. Always check with your landlord or building management before subletting or sharing.
