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.

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 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 (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.

Resale price per sq ft rose 5% in a year

Median AED 990 per sq ft in the last 12 months (25 resale sales, all sizes) against AED 946 in the 12 months before (36 resale sales, all sizes).

What owners made: +13.6% a year, 6% sold at a loss

17 owners bought a home in Royal Residence 1 and sold it again as a completed home 6 months or more later. Half of them held it for 2.7 years or more. A gain is the change in the price for each year held, before fees, service charge and rent.

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 130 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 12% more than buyers paid

5 homes are for sale in Royal Residence 1. The median advert asks 12% more per sq ft than the median resale sale of the same type in the last 12 months. 0 of 5 adverts ask the sold level or less. The median advert has been listed for 5 days; the oldest for 7 days.

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. 3 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.
