What the numbers mean if you own here

Median prices in Dubai (all areas) are -5% against last year across 112,237 registered sales. Fewer units are changing hands (-26% in volume), which means buyers have more choice and price your unit against the last registered sale, not against the listing next door.

Over the last three months apartments traded at AED 1,690 per sqft, -5% against the previous quarter. My recommendation to an owner: list within 3% of the current registered rate and expect an offer within the first month. Holding out for last year's asking prices is what creates 90-day listings.

  • Sellers: a listing priced on registered transactions sells faster and rarely needs a reduction.
  • Landlords: a 7.0% gross yield is the area median; a unit renting below it is under-priced.
  • Buyers: ask for the last five registered sales in the building before you offer. We send them on request.
