James Paul Booth
The agent's view
“Portside by Samana is off-plan, due in 2029, so no owner has sold a completed home here yet. Buyers took 70 homes here in the 12 months to 22 Oct 2026, at about AED 1,681 per sq ft. Demand is there. Your return depends on the handover date and on the price of the completed towers next door on that day.”

Three views of the same place, from the same direction. The other towers we cover are on all three: click one to open its page.

The map loads when you reach it.

3D: AI picture models of our towers (height and position from the map, detail approximate) and blocks from OpenStreetMap heights.

Construction progress: not found

We found no public progress record for this tower. Ask the developer for the latest inspection report from the Land Department.

Payment plan: not found

We checked the pages we hold for this tower and found no payment plan that passed our checks. We do not guess one. Ask the developer for the current plan.

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 22 Oct 2026. Asking and rent = live listings on 7 Oct 2026. Counts are in brackets. A sold median needs 10 sales, an advert median 3 adverts.

TypeOff-plan: soldOff-plan: per sq ftMedian asking
1-bedAED 1,157,853 (56)1,750– (1)
2-bedAED 1,414,000 (14)1,426– (0)

Sold prices: Land Department sale records to 22 Oct 2026, BUY DUBAI facts cube. Asking and rent are adverts, not contracts.

Sales we leave out of every median, count and chart (0 of 70 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.

Too few off-plan sales to state a yearly change

Median AED 1,681 per sq ft in the 12 months to 22 Oct 2026 (70 off-plan sales). A yearly change needs at least 30 sales in each of the two 12-month periods.

2026-Q3: AED 1,673 per sq ft, 39 sales1,67326 Q32026-Q4: AED 1,749 per sq ft, 31 sales1,74926 Q439 sales3931 sales31Median AED per sq ftNumber of sales

Bars: median AED per sq ft by quarter. Blue line and blue numbers under the bars: number of sales in the quarter. Last 16 quarters at most; Land Department records, quarters with 10 or more sales. Off-plan sales are 100% of sales in the last 12 months, so the bars can mix launch and resale prices.

Every sale since 2026: 70 sales of 70 units

The direction of each landmark from Portside by Samana, and the towers within 150 m that can stand in the way. What a home really sees depends on its floor and its side of the building. We do not have the unit positions for this tower yet, so we cannot tell you the view of one unit.

No resident reviews: the tower is not built

Nobody lives in Portside by Samana yet, so there is nothing a resident can tell you. Reviews you see elsewhere under this name are about the sales office, the developer or another building. What we can show is below: what the developer and the documents say about the project. We add resident reviews after handover.

Method, sources and what we did not find

  • Sales: unit-level Dubai Land Department sale records, 22 Sep 2026 to 21 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 (binayah.com, dubaihousing-ae.com, live adverts: community guide, propsearch.ae, providentestate.com), read by an AI model on 23 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, a floor plan document, unit positions on a floor, the side and view of each unit, a licensed photo.
