What Motor City rents for, by layout
Every residential tenancy registered with Ejari in the last twelve months, read from Motor City. Annual rents, medians.
| Layout | Typical size | Median rent | New lease | Renewal | Year before | Contracts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 641 sqft | 50,000 | 54,000 | 45,045 | 43,197 | 227 |
| 1 B/R | 1,022 sqft | 72,000 | 75,000 | 67,000 | 63,525 | 901 |
| 2 B/R | 1,529 sqft | 115,000 | 120,000 | 110,000 | 99,000 | 561 |
| 3 B/R | 2,580 sqft | 180,000 | 187,500 | 175,000 | 170,000 | 206 |
| 4 B/R | 3,373 sqft | 267,500 | 290,000 | 263,750 | 260,500 | 34 |
| 5 B/R | 6,617 sqft | 447,500 | 500,000 | 405,000 | 405,000 | 10 |
A renewal is held to the RERA rental index; a new lease is what the market asked that month. Layouts with fewer than ten contracts in the year are left out — too few to quote a median, so we do not guess at one.
Rent against price
Gross yield in Motor City
The recorded rent per square foot a year over the recorded resale price per square foot, for the same layout in the same twelve months. Both sides from the register — neither is an asking figure.
| Layout | Rent / sq ft / year | Sale / sq ft | Gross yield | Contracts · sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 76 | 984 | 7.7% | 227 · 119 |
| 4 B/R | 77 | 988 | 7.8% | 34 · 17 |
| 3 B/R | 70 | 1,003 | 7% | 206 · 72 |
| 1 B/R | 72 | 1,012 | 7.1% | 901 · 460 |
| 2 B/R | 72 | 1,029 | 7% | 561 · 254 |
Gross: before service charges, agency fees and any months empty between tenants. Completed homes only on the sale side — an off-plan price has no tenant yet.
