James Paul Booth
The agent's view
“Owners who sold in Reef Residence made 14.5% a year, and 6% 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. For me that is a strong record for Jumeirah Village Circle. Pay for the right view and layout.”

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 yearGross yield
StudioAED 540,000 (8)1,083– (2)– (2)–
1-bedAED 860,000 (7)971– (0)AED 63,999 (6)7.4%
2-bedAED 1,450,000 (7)943– (1)AED 120,000 (5)8.3%

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 (5 of 198 here): bulk transfers, meaning 5 or more completed homes sold within two days at prices per sq ft within 25% of each other (5); 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 did not change in a year

Median AED 1,023 per sq ft in the last 12 months (22 resale sales) against AED 1,022 in the 12 months before (36 resale sales).

What owners made: +14.5% a year, 6% sold at a loss

32 owners bought a home in Reef Residence and sold it again as a completed home 6 months or more later. Half of them held it for 2.1 years or more. A gain is the change in the price for each year held, before fees, service charge and rent.

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%.

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.

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.

Mortgage: what Reef Residence costs a month

The numbers start from the median sold price in this tower. Change any of them. The rate starts at 3.99%, the most common 3-year fixed rate in two bank comparison lists dated 5 October 2026. Fixed rates in those lists run from 3.75% to 4.69%. Three-month EIBOR, the base for variable rates, was 4.19% on 9 Oct 2026.

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, 13 Jan 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 (Building guide from live adverts (facts and resident opinions; rewrite in your own words; cite as "live adverts")., live adverts: community guide, propertydigger.com, propertystellar.com, propsearch.ae), 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.
