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 20 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.
| Type | Off-plan: sold | Off-plan: per sq ft | Median asking |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-bed | AED 2,956,190 (20) | 3,664 | AED 2,842,000 (3) |
| 2-bed | AED 4,638,667 (29) | 4,204 | – (1) |
Sold prices: Land Department sale records to 20 Oct 2026, BUY DUBAI facts cube. Asking and rent are adverts, not contracts. 52 sales are hotel apartments and are marked in the list below.
Sales we leave out of every median, count and chart (0 of 52 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 4,064 per sq ft in the 12 months to 20 Oct 2026 (54 off-plan sales). A yearly change needs at least 30 sales in each of the two 12-month periods.
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: 52 sales of 52 units
Newest first. Each sale is marked Resale or Off-plan. The last column shows the change from the same unit's sale before.

Sellers ask 7% more than buyers paid
5 homes are for sale in Villa Del Garda. The median advert asks 7% more per sq ft than the median off-plan sale of the same type in the last 12 months. 1 of 4 adverts ask the sold level or less. The median advert has been listed for 3 days; the oldest for 3 days.
| Type | For sale | Median asking | Asking per sq ft | Sold per sq ft (sales) | Asking over sold | Median time listed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1-bed | 3 | AED 2,842,000 | 4,031 | 3,710 (19) | +9% | 1 days |

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.
The official record
Checked, not found. We could not match this tower to a building name in the Dubai Land Department register, so sales before 2020, offices, shops, mortgages and gifts are not shown.
Sales, price cuts, new adverts and news, on WhatsApp. You choose what and how often.
Which side faces what
The direction of each landmark from Villa Del Garda, 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.
| Side | What lies that way |
|---|---|
| South | DIFC 10.6 km · Burj Khalifa 12.3 km · Dubai Creek and Ras Al Khor 12.4 km · Dubai Design District 12.8 km · Meydan racecourse 16.2 km |
| South-west | Jumeirah beach and the sea 13.3 km · Sheikh Zayed Road 13.4 km · Burj Al Arab and the sea 22.2 km · Dubai Marina skyline 30.4 km |
No resident reviews: the tower is not built
Nobody lives in Villa Del Garda 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.
The project: what the developer and the documents say
The tower is not complete, so these are plans and claims, not facts you can check on site. Each one names its source.
- Developer
- Mr. Eight Development (via subsidiary Riviera Vista Real Estate Development, per Propsearch)
- Handover due
- 2028
- Floors

- Apartments

- Parking levels

- Unit mix
- 1-, 2-, 3- and 5-bedroom apartments plus 2- and 4-bedroom duplexes (per Propsearch, La Foret, Luxhabitat); our sales data for the last 12 months shows 18 one-bed, 28 two-bed, 3 three-bed and 1 four-bed sales

Where sources disagree
- Handover: Propsearch, La Foret and Luxhabitat say Q1 2028, while dubai-islands.org and one social search results say Q4 2027, and one site search results says 4 March.
- Unit count: Propsearch, La Foret, dubai-islands.org and Luxhabitat say about 135 units, while search results say 134 or 136, and one search results says 49 homes.
- Payment plan: La Foret and dubai-islands.org say 35/65, Propsearch says 20/15/65 and Luxhabitat shows 20/15/65. These are equivalent, as 20+5+5+5=35, but are described differently.
- Master area: Propsearch's transaction records place the project in Palm Deira, while the guides say Dubai Islands. The guide says Dubai Islands, Deira.

Method, sources and what we did not find
- Sales: unit-level Dubai Land Department sale records, 8 Apr 2026 to 19 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 (dubai-islands.org, laforet.ae, luxhabitat.ae, propsearch.ae, refty.ai), read by an AI model on 21 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.
