Dubai Land Department records for this building: closed transaction prices, not asking prices or estimates. Figures are medians, so a single expensive sale does not move them.
The yearly figure compares the last 12 months with the 12 before them: calendar years would not work, the current one is unfinished. The district moved 0% over the same period, so the building grew faster.
| Type | Size, m² | Price, AED | Per m² | Deals |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 bedroom | 68 | 2 538 000 | 37 324 | 111 |
| 2 bedrooms | 146 | 3 630 000 | 24 863 | 118 |
| 3 bedrooms | 179 | 6 875 000 | 38 408 | 23 |
Median across all recorded deals in this building. Rows with fewer than five deals are omitted: there is nothing to average there.
From 2023 to 2025 — +5% on the price per square metre in this building. The district moved +12% over the same period, so the building lagged the market.
Top to bottom: purchase price per m², year, annual rent per m², gross yield.
All figures are medians. Years with fewer than eight deals are skipped; rent is shown where there are at least twenty contracts. The yield is gross — service charges are not published in the register.
