Mid-range residential tower built by Emaar Properties, handed over in 2009, with 39 floors, 174 units and 89 resales since 2020

The Lofts West, Downtown Dubai · by Emaar Properties

West, The Lofts: a resale 2-bed sells for about AED 2.69m

Median of 6 resale 2-bed sales in the 12 months to 24 Oct 2026 (10 resale sales of all sizes). Last sale in the tower: 19 Aug 2026.

The market says
10 resales of all sizes in 12 months at AED 2,085 per sq ft (+6% in a year); a higher price than 23% of Downtown Dubai towers; owners who sold gained 18.2% a year and 0% sold at a loss.
James Paul Booth
The agent's view
“Owners who sold in The Lofts West made 18.2% a year, and none of the 14 on record sold at a loss. A 2-bed gives a gross yield of about 6.7% on the median signed Ejari rent for a 2-bed in Downtown Dubai (AED 180,000 a year), against the median sold price. For me that is a strong record for Downtown Dubai. Pay for the right view and layout.”

Resale and off-plan prices by bedroom

Resale = a completed home sold on. Off-plan = a home sold before the tower is complete, by the developer or by an earlier buyer (a Land Department "delayed sell"). The two are different markets, so we never mix them in one price. Sold = median price of sales in the 12 months to 24 Oct 2026. Asking and rent = live listings on 7 Oct 2026. Counts are in brackets. A median needs 5 sales or 3 listings.

TypeResale: soldResale: per sq ftRent a year
1-bedunder 5 (4)–AED 105,000 (5)
2-bedAED 2,687,500 (6)2,085– (2)

Rents in this table are asking rents (adverts). The yield in the headline is the signed Ejari rent divided by the median resale price, before service charge.

Sales we leave out of every median, count and chart (0 of 89 here): bulk transfers, meaning 5 or more completed homes sold within two days at prices per sq ft within 25% of each other (0); a sale at exactly the same price as that unit's sale before (0); a size more than 1.6 times the usual size for the recorded type, or a "studio" above 750 sq ft (0). They stay in the list below with a label.

Resale price per sq ft rose 6% in a year

What owners made: +18.2% a year, 0% sold at a loss

Round trips: the same unit number sold twice, bulk transfers and same-price transfers out, 5 or more owners for each line. Only owners who sold are counted: an owner who waits for a better price is not here. An owner who bought off-plan paid in stages, so the gain on the cash paid in is higher than the gain on the price. Dubai figures: 55,901 round trips by the same rule, all areas, to 24 Oct 2026.

Ask for a report on your unit: its sales history, the same type's sales in the last 12 months and the homes for sale against it. A licensed partner agent, named on the report with the registration number, sends it. BUY DUBAI is not a broker and takes no part in the sale.

Method, sources and what we did not find

  • Sales: unit-level Dubai Land Department sale records, 29 Jun 2020 to 24 Oct 2026, checked by year against Dubai Land Department open data. Our unit list does not hold every sale, so some sales are missing.
  • Listings: one snapshot, 7 Oct 2026. Asking prices and asking rents.
  • Residents and building facts: Google Maps reviews and guide pages (Building guide from live adverts (facts and resident opinions; rewrite in your own words; cite as "live adverts")., Resident and public material found on the open web (one passage per block; source and date under each)., live adverts: community guide), read by an AI model on 27 Oct 2026 with a fixed question list. A script checks that each answer names its source.
  • Nobody visited the tower. Every fact is from a document, a map or a resident's review.
  • Checked, not found for this tower: a Google Maps place, resident reviews, guides, a floor plan document, unit positions on a floor, the side and view of each unit, a licensed photo.
