How to Use the Dubai Smart Rental Index to Check Fair Rent

Dubai has launched the Smart Rental Index, an innovative tool designed to help both tenants and landlords determine fair rental values.

Developed by the Dubai Land Department (DLD), this AI-powered index evaluates residential properties based on various factors, including construction quality, design, maintenance, and available facilities.

As tenants prepare to renew their rental contracts, the index provides insights into whether proposed rent increases are justified.

It offers a comprehensive assessment of each building, helping users understand current market rates and ensuring transparency in rental agreements.

The 2025 update of the Smart Rental Index includes more detailed building evaluations and annual data updates based on actual rental contracts.

This new version aims to standardize rent values across the city, reducing disputes between landlords and tenants.

The index covers all residential areas in Dubai, excluding the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), and is updated annually to reflect market changes.

By leveraging this tool, renters can negotiate lease renewals with data-backed evidence, ensuring they are not overpaying for their homes.
