“Agua Residences Tower 1 is off-plan, due in 2027, so no owner has sold a completed home here yet. Buyers took 39 homes here in the 12 months to 25 Oct 2026, at about AED 2,189 per sq ft. Sales are slow. Ask for a better payment plan before you sign, and compare the price with a completed tower next door.”

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 25 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 1,900,000 (21)2,433– (2)
3-bedAED 3,099,080 (10)1,947– (1)
4-bed+– (under 10)–– (1)

Sold prices: Land Department sale records to 25 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 39 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 2,189 per sq ft in the 12 months to 25 Oct 2026 (39 off-plan sales). A yearly change needs at least 30 sales in each of the two 12-month periods.

Too few quarters with sales to draw a chart.

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 2025: 39 sales of 39 units

Newest first. Each sale is marked Resale or Off-plan. The last column shows the change from the same unit's sale before.

Adverts: one reading on 7 Oct 2026. Sold prices: off-plan sales in this tower in the last 12 months, 5 or more of the type. An advert has no unit number, so we compare the price per sq ft with the type, not with the same unit. An asking price is not a sale price. Days listed is from the date on the advert: an agent can place a home again as a new advert, so the real time for sale can be longer. 1 adverts have the same type, size and price as another advert: they are probably the same home with a second agent. We cannot show price cuts over time or the time to sell yet: these need more than one reading.

Mortgage: what Agua Residences Tower 1 costs a month

The tower is off-plan. A bank can lend at most 50% of the price of an off-plan home, and most buyers use the loan for the payment at handover. The rate starts at 3.99%, the most common 3-year fixed rate in two bank comparison lists dated 5 October 2026. Fixed rates in those lists run from 3.75% to 4.69%. Three-month EIBOR, the base for variable rates, was 4.19% on 9 Oct 2026.

Method, sources and what we did not find

  • Sales: unit-level Dubai Land Department sale records, 29 Oct 2025 to 22 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 (continentalclub.ae, datahabibi.ae, houseoforange.ae, live adverts: community guide, propertystellar.com), read by an AI model on 26 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.
