Methodology & weights

Composite of five drivers, each converted to 0-100 percentile rank across all 87 Dubai communities, then weight-blended. Weights: 25% yield (gross rental), 25% growth (6mo forecast), 20% liquidity (12-month transaction volume, log-scaled), 15% sentiment (Reddit r/dubai sentiment percentile), 15% stability (inverse of quarterly psf coefficient of variation). Investor-leaning. Communities with insufficient data on a driver have that weight redistributed.

A composite. NOT a buy/sell signal. High-yield areas often score well — but yield correlates with affordability, not capital appreciation. Cross-reference with the per-driver percentiles before making decisions.
