The reminders
A payment: 7 days before it is due, on the day, and 3 days overdue. The notice window: 120 and 100 days before the contract ends, and on the last day to give notice. The renewal: 60 and 30 days before the contract ends.
The notice reminders move with your contract's own notice period (90 days unless it says otherwise) and stop once you record that notice was given. A payment marked received gets no reminder.

An estimate, not the binding figure
About this estimate
The estimated maximum increase comes from our own estimate of the average rent of similar units. The binding figure is DLD's Rental Index for your building. DLD's index answers per building in its own service, and is not open data. Look your building up there before you decide. You can type the figure DLD's index shows for your home, and it replaces ours. The decree sets a ceiling. It is not the rent to ask.
Within 1 point of a band edge, the figure of DLD's index may fall in the next band, and the block says so.

On your lease this average is our estimate, from new DLD-registered contracts of the last 12 months: the project if it has 10 or more of the same bedroom count, else the community. Here it is a sample figure.
Where the dates and the estimate come from
Texts checked on 11 Nov 2026.
The Arabic text of each law prevails over these summaries. This is not legal advice.
Where the rules do not apply
The dates and the estimate are for yearly residential lets in Dubai, on freehold and leasehold title alike. A holiday home or a home in DIFC gets value and income tracking without the rules panel, with the reason in one line.

Questions landlords ask
Does the lease block cost anything?
No. It is free on your free home, with its reminders. Home Tracker holds up to 3 homes, each with its own lease.
Is the estimated maximum increase the figure I can use at renewal?
It is our estimate, for planning. The binding figure is the one DLD's Rental Index shows for your building. Type that figure into the lease block and it replaces ours.
What happens to my tenant's details?
They show only to you, inside your own lease block. They are never in a link, a mail subject or a share card, and removing the lease erases them and the uploaded files.
Do you write an eviction or non-payment notice?
No. For those the block shows the dates and a checklist only: such a notice goes through a notary public or by registered mail.
Can I work out a rent increase here without an account?
This page has no calculator. The lease block works the estimate out from your own lease, once the home and the lease are added.
