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 matched it.
