The agent's view
“Look first at the communities and towers with the most sales. Busy places give you a fair price to work from, and an easier sale later.”

How these figures are made

Source: our record of unit sales registered in Dubai, read to 13 October 2026. A sale is counted on its registered date.

Left out: land, whole buildings and bulk transactions. AED per sq ft is the median of the sales with a size.

Before 24 September 2026 our record holds about 84% of sales, so a figure before that date reads low and a change across that date reads high.

A week is Monday to Sunday.
