What the government values it at

The Land Department's own valuers assessed 224 properties here over the last two years at a median of AED 2,294/sqft, against AED 3,098/sqft actually paid.

These are different measurements, not a discount. Valuations are commissioned for a purpose — a mortgage, a transfer, a dispute — so they sample different properties than the open market does. Across Dubai they sit consistently below transacted prices.

How buyers split here

36% of sales in the last 12 months were off-plan and 64% were completed properties. A high off-plan share means prices here reflect launch pricing on future delivery as much as the resale market.

Reading the yield

Gross yield compares this community's median annual rent to its median sale price. Both are medians of different property mixes, so treat it as a community-level indicator rather than the return on any one home — and note it is gross, before service charges, agency fees and vacancy.
