The Residences 7, Downtown Dubai · by Emaar Properties

7, The Residences: an apartment sold for about AED 2,732 per sq ft in 2025

Median of 23 apartment sales in 2025, median price AED 3,950,000. Source: Dubai Land Department register, to 12 Feb 2026. 6 market sales in the 12 months to 24 Oct 2026; 91 sales on record since 2020. That is too few for a home price.

The market says
6 resales of all sizes in 12 months at AED 2,656 per sq ft (+6% in a year); a higher price than 56% of Downtown Dubai towers; owners who sold gained 20.5% a year and 12% sold at a loss; 2 homes for sale now.
James Paul Booth
The agent's view
“Owners who sold in The Residences 7 made 20.5% a year, and 12% of them sold at a loss. That is a steady record. I would buy for rent and a long hold, not for a quick resale.”

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: soldMedian askingRent a year
1-bedunder 5 (1)– (0)AED 120,000 (4)
2-bedunder 5 (4)– (2)AED 217,990 (5)
3-bedunder 5 (1)– (0)– (1)

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 (2 of 91 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 (2). They stay in the list below with a label.

Resale price per sq ft rose 6% in a year

What owners made: +20.5% a year, 12% sold at a loss

16 owners bought a home in The Residences 7 and sold it again as a completed home 6 months or more later. Half of them held it for 1.3 years or more. A gain is the change in the price for each year held, before fees, service charge and rent.

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, 22 Jan 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.
