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.
| Type | Off-plan: sold | Off-plan: per sq ft | Median asking |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2-bed | AED 18,879,000 (7) | 10,138 | – (1) |
| 3-bed | AED 29,347,820 (6) | 10,083 | – (0) |
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 (0 of 27 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.
Off-plan price per sq ft fell 10% in a year
Median AED 10,138 per sq ft in the last 12 months (13 off-plan sales, all sizes) against AED 11,276 in the 12 months before (14 off-plan sales, all sizes).
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. Off-plan sales are 100% of all sales in this tower, so the early quarters show launch prices.
Every sale since 2025: 27 sales of 27 units
Newest first. Each sale is marked Resale or Off-plan. The last column shows the change from the same unit's sale before.
