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 22 Oct 2026. Asking and rent = live listings on 7 Oct 2026. Counts are in brackets. A median needs 5 sales or 3 listings.

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 62 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 rose 1% in a year

Median AED 3,048 per sq ft in the last 12 months (9 resale sales, all sizes) against AED 3,009 in the 12 months before (6 resale sales, all sizes).

What owners made: +16.2% a year, 10% sold at a loss

10 owners bought a home in Emerald 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.

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 22 Oct 2026.

Every sale since 2020: 62 sales of 50 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: 253 registered sales since 2009

Dubai Land Department register for "EMERALD", 25 Feb 2009 to 12 Feb 2026: 253 apartment sales, plus 74 mortgages and 21 gifts. This source has every year and every unit type, but no unit numbers.

Median AED per sq ft is shown for 3 or more sales in a year. 57 of these sales were off-plan and 196 were of completed units. What our unit list above does not have: sales before 2020; mortgages and gifts. For homes from 2020 to 12 Feb 2026 the register has 51 sales and our unit list has 59.

Which side faces what

The direction of each landmark from Emerald, 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.
