Forecast Rationale
City Walk apartments are projected to achieve gross rental yields of 5.9–8.04% in 2026, underpinned by sustained demand from ultra-high-net-worth residents, constrained premium supply and Dubai's continued emergence as the world's pre-eminent luxury residential market. Capital value appreciation of 5.51–10.69% is anticipated, driven by global capital inflows, residency-by-investment programmes and elevated infrastructure investment across the emirate.
Investment Thesis
Premium apartments in City Walk represent an exceptional opportunity for yield-focused capital allocation in 2026. With net yields of 4.84–6.59% and a projected five-year total return of 55–99.1%, the risk-adjusted profile compares favourably against global trophy real estate markets. Acquisition at today's pricing establishes an optimised cost basis ahead of projected appreciation.
