Is Town Square a good place to invest?
It depends on the building, but the area numbers are a fair starting point. Town Square returned a gross yield of 5.7% in the September 2026 DLD data. Price per sq ft is down 6.1% on a year earlier, which can mean a better entry point if rents hold. Before you commit, get the service charge and recent rents for the specific tower, since those decide your net return.
DLD records Town Square under the official district name Al Yelayiss 2. Figures on this page cover that whole district.
Rental yield in Town Square
The gross rental yield in Town Square was 5.7% in the September 2026 report. That's the median annual rent divided by the median sale price, using 1,968 Ejari contracts from the three months to the end of September 2026. The median contract in that window was AED 85,000 a year.
Gross yield ignores service charges, vacancy and letting costs. Your net return will be lower, and it varies a lot from one building to the next.

Before you invest in Town Square
- Work out the net yield: take off service charges, maintenance and a month or so of vacancy.
- Look at recent rents in the exact building, not just the district median.
- If you plan short-term lets, confirm the building allows holiday homes.
- Check how many new units are due to hand over nearby, since new supply can hold rents down.
