Questions about Downtown Dubai

What is the price per square foot in Downtown Dubai?

The median registered sale in Downtown Dubai was AED 3,108 per square foot over the last twelve months to 3 September 2026, across 2,995 registered sales. That is 80 per cent above the city-wide median of AED 1,728, and ranks 17 of 95 reportable communities. This is the price registered with the Land Department once a sale completed, not an asking price.

Are property prices in Downtown Dubai rising or falling?

The median price per square foot in Downtown Dubai rose 11 per cent over the last twelve months, measured against the equal period immediately before it. The city-wide median rose 8.3 per cent over the same window. A large swing in a community where most sales are new launches usually reflects a change in what is being sold there rather than a repricing of the same homes.

How much does a two-bedroom home cost in Downtown Dubai?

The commonest size registered in Downtown Dubai over the last twelve months was a two-bedroom, and its median was AED 3,900,000 across 1,039 such sales, at a typical 1,348 square feet. Median rather than average, because a small number of very large sales pulls an average upward.

How much of the Downtown Dubai market is off-plan?

Over the last twelve months, 36 per cent of registered sales in Downtown Dubai were off-plan, meaning bought from a developer before completion rather than from an existing owner. Across Dubai the share was 69 per cent. Mortgage registrations equalled 36 per cent of sales here, against 22 per cent city-wide; a developer payment plan is not a mortgage and never reaches the mortgage register.
