The market says
8 resales in 12 months at AED 1,004 per sq ft (-19% in a year); a higher price than 16% of Jumeirah Village Circle towers; owners who sold gained 13.4% a year and 16% sold at a loss; 2 homes for sale now.
James Paul Booth
The agent's view
“Owners who sold in Crystal Residence made 13.4% a year, and 16% of them sold at a loss. Few homes are for sale against the pace of sales, so a home at the right price sells quickly. 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 19 Oct 2026. Asking and rent = live listings on 7 Oct 2026. Counts are in brackets. A median needs 5 sales or 3 listings.

TypeResale: soldResale: per sq ftMedian askingRent a year
Studiounder 5 (3)–– (2)AED 46,000 (4)
1-bedAED 750,000 (5)967– (0)– (0)
2-bed– (0)–– (0)AED 85,000 (7)

Rents are asking rents, not registered contracts. Yield = asking rent divided by the median resale price, before service charge.

Sales we leave out of every median, count and chart (1 of 128 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 19% in a year

Median AED 1,004 per sq ft in the last 12 months (8 resale sales) against AED 1,247 in the 12 months before (17 resale sales).

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: +13.4% a year, 16% sold at a loss

19 owners bought a home in Crystal Residence and sold it again as a completed home 6 months or more later. Half of them held it for 2.4 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 19 Oct 2026.

2 of 27 reviews (2025-05 and 2026-09) mention noise: one says you can hear everything including hallway noise and the neighbour's TV, the other says 'noise all the time'. Few reviews, so treat as a possible issue, not a confirmed one.

Security staff
Mixed. 6 of 27 reviews (2025-07 to 2026-08) praise security, mostly one named guard as helpful and polite. 5 reviews (2024-12 to 2026-09) complain security guards or building staff were rude, raised their voices or made offensive remarks (2024-12 to 2026-09). One review also says the guard defended the rules against tenants who break them.

7 of 27 reviews (2025-05 to 2026-09) complain about AC: units not working or not repaired for weeks or months. 3 of them say the building does not allow outside technicians, and 2 say approval (an NOC) takes 3 to 5 days. 6 of the 7 are from 2026-06 to 2026-09, so the issue looks recent. One review mentions the management company by name and others name building managers.

Who is the developer?
Myra Real Estate Developments (Myra Properties), per Propsearch, PropQA and search results. Propertystellar says Crystal Group; that page is treated as wrong.

Delivery record (on time or late)
Not found for certain. A 2016 news search results expected completion by April 2018 and Propsearch records completion in December 2018, so roughly 8 months later than that target. Sources differ on start and end dates.

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, 23 Feb 2020 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 (binayah.ae, live adverts: community guide, propertystellar.com, 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 floor plan document, unit positions on a floor, the side and view of each unit.
