How these figures are produced
Recorded sales only, from the Dubai Land Department transaction register, covering 6 Nov 2025 to 5 Nov 2026. Mortgage and gift registrations are excluded because their recorded value is a loan or a nominal amount rather than a market price, and partial-ownership transfers are excluded so figures reflect genuine market sales. Medians are used for prices and averages for rates per square foot. Rents are registered Ejari lease contracts for homes, counted by the month the lease starts. Published records may lag the market.
