Prices

What buyers paid, not what listings ask

Each price below is what a buyer paid on the day the Land Department registered the sale, not a listing price.

Flats and villas are counted apart, because a square metre of a villa and a square metre of a flat are not the same thing to buy. An area enters a table only when it has enough sales for a median to mean something; the threshold is the same for every row and is written in the caption.

The areas are the Land Department's own. A marketing name like Dubailand or Mohammed Bin Rashid City is not an area in the register, so a community you know may sit under a name you do not; where a community has a page here, its name stands beside the area its sales are registered under.

Flats

Flat prices per square metre, by area

Median price per square metre in each area with the middle half of sales around it, off-plan and ready apart where each has enough sales, then the median price of a whole flat.

Flat sales registered with the Land Department, 1 January – 17 September 2026: areas with at least 30our count sales, most sales first.

Villa prices per square metre, by area

The same columns for villas; fewer areas appear, because most villa sales are concentrated in a handful of master communities.

Villa sales registered with the Land Department, 1 January – 17 September 2026: areas with at least 30our count sales, most sales first.

Method

Registered sales only: not asking prices, not valuations

The price per square metre is the registered sale value divided by the registered size, for this calendar year's sales only.

The Land Department publishes every registered transaction of the year on its open-data page: date, procedure, off-plan or ready, area, property type, the transaction value and the property size. We take the sales group only, keep flats and villas, and leave out the procedures that register a development or a plot rather than a sale to a buyer. Rows that repeat field for field are counted once.

The price per square metre of each sale is the transaction value divided by the property size the register gives. The median is the middle sale; the lower and upper quartiles bound the middle half of the sales, so a wide gap between them means the area mixes very different buildings. For a villa the register does not say whether the size is the plot or the built area, so compare villas with villas only.

These are not asking prices, not valuations and not an index. They cover this calendar year only, because the open data serves no earlier year, and they move as sales are registered: check the date at the top of the page.

Check a figure

Rents—
the Land Department's rent feed has timed out at its own gateway on every request so far
Earlier years—
the open data covers this calendar year only, and the archive for older years does not answer
Asking prices—
a portal's asking price is not a registered sale, so it is not used here
Valuations—
a bank or a surveyor values one property on one day; nothing here is a valuation
Per building—
the register names projects, not buildings, and one building has too few sales for a median; ask and we send its sales
Buyer nationality—
the register has no field for it, and the shares that circulate cite no document
