How to read the prices
For Dubai, the price range is what buyers actually paid in the 12 months to 25 September 2026, from Dubai Land Department records. It leaves out the cheapest and dearest tenth of sales, so it shows what most homes cost. Where it says "from", that is the developer's own starting price unless the card says otherwise. Handover dates, home counts and amenities are from each developer's own website. A payment plan is shown only where the developer publishes it or two sales sources agree; it still differs by phase, so ask me for the current offer on the exact home. Typical rent is the middle rent on new Dubai tenancy contracts over the past year.
