- Too few sales on record to say.
“There are too few recent sales in Urbana for me to quote a return. I would price it from the last sale of the same layout, and I would not pay more for a promise.”

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 | Rent a year |
|---|---|
| 2-bed | – (1) |
| 3-bed | – (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 (0 of 0 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 resale sales to state a yearly change
0 resale sales in the last 12 months and 0 in the 12 months before. Each period needs at least 5.
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. Grey bars have fewer than 3 sales.
Every sale since 2020: 0 sales of 0 units
Newest first. Each sale is marked Resale or Off-plan. The last column shows the change from the same unit's sale before.

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.

Which side faces what
The direction of each landmark from Urbana, 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.

|---|---|
| North | Dubai Marina skyline 24.1 km · Burj Al Arab and the sea 31.2 km · Sheikh Zayed Road 38.3 km · Jumeirah beach and the sea 39.2 km · Burj Khalifa 39.3 km · DIFC 41.0 km |
| North-east | Meydan racecourse 36.1 km · Dubai Design District 39.1 km · Dubai Creek and Ras Al Khor 41.0 km |

Where sources disagree
- Completion year: FazWaz and Zeus Capital give Feb 2020 for Urbana; the Zeus Capital Urbana II page lists Dec 2019 and another listing there lists Urbana (I) as Dec 2019, so cluster dates vary.
- Place scope: the Google place is titled 'Urbana III - Emaar South' so its 4.4 rating and reviews may cover only that cluster, not all of Urbana.
- Pool floor: FazWaz tags the communal pool '1st Floor' while another source describes ground-level community pools in the clusters.
- Unit count: FazWaz lists 324 units for Urbana, while Zeus Capital lists a separate 324 for Urbana III and 1 unit for Urbana II, so the 324 may refer to a different cluster.

Own a unit here?
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, 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 (fazwaz.ae, live adverts: community guide, zeuscapital.ae), 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: sales, a floor plan document, unit positions on a floor, the side and view of each unit, a licensed photo.
