Last 12 months. Medians of at least 5 registered sales or new rent contracts; the median price of all sales mixes ready and off-plan. Gross yield is the median new yearly rent over the ready median price, shown where a home type has at least 10 ready sales and 5 new rents (“rent only” otherwise), before service charges and other costs.

Off-plan or ready.

Off-plan premium, same home type

Apartment · 1 bed: off-plan homes sold at 95.4% above ready ones per sq ft in the last 12 months (1,565 AED/sqft against 801 AED/sqft, medians of 839 and 14 sales).

Same home type, not the same buildings: off-plan stock is often newer, so the gap is not a forecast of resale prices. Not investment advice. How this is worked out

The middle half of prices

Middle half of Apartment · Studio · Off-plan sales: AED 1,657–1,765 per sq ft (AED 582,000–611,000), 1,838 sales in the last 12 months. The full spread by home type is in the area report.

A quarter of these sales were below the band and a quarter above it. Registered sales, not a valuation. How this is worked out

Ready turnover, last 12 months

4.2%

Ready sales in the last 12 months came to 4.2% of the 856 homes in the area’s finished DLD register projects (36 sales). Dubai: 7.2%.

Ready sales count resales and a developer’s sales of finished homes alike. Not counted, homes or sales: buildings older than the DLD project register, and villa projects whose sales DLD mostly registers as land. DLD data only. How this is worked out

Sales of AED 2M or more.

5.1%

5.1% of the area’s home sales in the last 12 months were for AED 2M or more (147 of 2,900). Dubai: 32.9%.

AED 2M is the minimum total property value for the UAE’s 10-year Golden Residence (golden visa) for real-estate investors, according to ICP and GDRFA Dubai (rules checked on 5 November 2026). This count shows registered sale prices only; the authorities decide each application on their own conditions, such as the owner’s share, how the value is certified and how the home is financed.
