Annual budget
Set aside 1–1.5% of property value a year. For a AED 936,000 unit in Arjan that is a realistic reserve for AC servicing, plumbing, white goods replacement and repainting between tenancies.
Short-let adds
Hosted units need deeper cleaning cycles, linen replacement roughly every 12–18 months and faster wear on soft furnishings — budget an extra 3–5% of revenue.
