Why Short-term vs Long-term
The best part about Dubai’s real estate market is its diversity, as short term letting has grown exponentially in popularity, offering unique, economical, and appealing places to stay vs traditional accommodations such as hotels. Demand for short-term lets in Dubai growing '10 times faster' than for hotels. In many cities short-term lets are seen as cheaper than local hotels, but Dubai is ranked the fifth most expensive place in the world to rent a holiday home, according to a Bloomberg index last year
Some of the benefits investors can expect from a short-term rental property include
- Higher rental rates than long-term rentals, which can lead to higher returns on investment.
- Increased occupancy due to a higher turnover of tenants, and results in more rental income flowing to investors as the unit is occupied for a greater portion of the year.
- Ability to take advantage of peak seasons when demand for rental properties is high.
- Increased rental income and reduced occupancy rates in peak seasons that would even out any dips during the low season – and still generating potentially higher income than long-term rentals.
- Potential for a diverse tenant base including tourists, business travelers, and those looking for temporary accommodation – all of who will be asked to leave reviews of the property and thus boost the rental performance
