- The market says
- 6 resales of all sizes in 12 months at AED 2,566 per sq ft (-7% in a year); a higher price than 82% of Dubai Marina towers; owners who sold gained 16.5% a year and 11% sold at a loss; 7 homes for sale now.
“Owners who sold in 5242 Tower 2 made 16.5% a year, and 11% of them sold at a loss. There are about 14 months of homes for sale, so the buyer can negotiate. 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.
| Type | Resale: sold | Median asking | Rent a year |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-bed | under 5 (2) | – (2) | – (2) |
| 2-bed | under 5 (4) | – (2) | AED 175,000 (5) |
| 3-bed | – (0) | – (2) | AED 280,000 (7) |
| 4-bed | – (0) | – (1) | – (0) |
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 (1 of 162 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 (1); 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 fell 7% in a year
Median AED 2,566 per sq ft in the last 12 months (6 resale sales, all sizes) against AED 2,760 in the 12 months before (21 resale sales, all sizes).
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. Grey bars have fewer than 3 sales.
What owners made: +16.5% a year, 11% sold at a loss
35 owners bought a home in 5242 Tower 2 and sold it again as a completed home 6 months or more later. Half of them held it for 2.0 years or more. A gain is the change in the price for each year held, before fees, service charge and rent.
By what the owner paid
| Price paid | Gain a year | Sold at a loss | Owners |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cheapest third | +18.2% | 18% | 11 |
| Middle third | +16.8% | 9% | 11 |
| Dearest third | +9.3% | 9% | 11 |
Each owner is ranked by the price per sq ft paid, against the same unit type in the tower in the year of purchase. Across Dubai apartments the cheapest third gained +16.0% a year and the dearest third +7.9%.
By unit type, and bought off-plan or completed
| Unit type | Gain a year | Sold at a loss | Owners |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-bed | +13.2% | 15% | 13 |
| 2-bed | +18.5% | 13% | 15 |
| 3-bed | +31.5% | 0% | 7 |
| Bought as | Gain a year | Sold at a loss | Owners |
|---|---|---|---|
| Off-plan | +17.2% | 10% | 10 |
| Completed | +16.5% | 12% | 25 |
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.
Every sale since 2020: 162 sales of 111 units

Adverts: one reading on 7 Oct 2026. Sold prices: resale 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. We cannot show price cuts over time or the time to sell yet: these need more than one reading.
