For instance, let's say you invest in a property that costs AED 1,000,000, and there are additional buying expenses of AED 100,000. Your total investment amount comes to AED 1,100,000.

Now, imagine the property is sold a few years later for AED 1,500,000 (after deducting selling costs). In this case, the capital appreciation would be AED 400,000, or 36.4% (calculated as AED 400,000 / AED 1,100,000).
For example, the properties on our platform typically offer a total ROI of around 50% over 5 years. When this is averaged out on a yearly basis, it equates to an annualized return of approximately 10%.
To illustrate, consider a scenario where 10 investors jointly own a property. The dividend is the amount each investor receives, calculated by dividing the total rent generated by the property by 10 (after deducting all relevant costs).
For example, if a property is valued at AED 1,000,000 and generates an annual rental income of AED 100,000, the gross income would be AED 100,000, and the gross yield would be 10%.
For instance, if a real estate fund plans to purchase a property for AED 1,000,000, and the transaction costs amount to an additional AED 50,000, the funding target would be set at AED 1,050,000.
To illustrate, consider a property valued at AED 1,000,000 that generates an annual rental income of AED 100,000. If the annual costs associated with the property are AED 25,000, the net income would be AED 75,000, and the net yield would be 7.5%.
For example, if a property generates AED 100,000 in annual rental income, this amount is considered the gross rental income, as it does not account for any expenses related to the property.
For instance, if a property generates AED 100,000 in gross rental income and has associated expenses of AED 30,000, the net rental income would be AED 70,000. This is the amount the investor would receive after accounting for all costs.
For example, if a property is purchased for AED 1,000,000 and generates an annual rental income of AED 80,000, the rental yield would be 8% (calculated as AED 80,000 / AED 1,000,000 * 100).
For instance, if a property is purchased for AED 1,000,000 and is expected to be worth AED 1,200,000 at the end of a 5-year investment term, the expected appreciation would be AED 200,000, or 20%.
For example, if a property is expected to generate a total return of 50% over a 5-year investment term (considering both rental income and capital appreciation), the projected annual return would be approximately 10% (calculated as 50% / 5 years).
For instance, if a property is expected to generate a rental yield of 30% and appreciate by 20% over a 5-year investment term, the total expected return would be 50% (calculated as 30% + 20%).
For example, a residential apartment complex may offer amenities such as a fitness center, landscaped gardens, and a children's play area to attract tenants and command higher rental rates.
For instance, when purchasing a property, investors may need to pay stamp duty, land registration fees, and legal fees in addition to the property's listed price. These transaction costs can add a significant amount to the overall investment.
For example, if a property is rented out for 11 months in a year, its occupancy rate would be approximately 92% (calculated as 11 months / 12 months * 100).
For instance, when evaluating an investment opportunity, the real estate crowdfunding platform may provide an expected rental income figure based on the property's location, size, amenities, and the prevailing rental rates in the area.
