Methodology

This methodology disclosure describes resale villa transactions in Al Barari for the first half of 2025 (January 1 to June 30, 2025), sourced from Property Monitor's aggregation of Dubai Land Department registration records. Year-on-year comparisons reference the same six-month period in 2024, with the average price per square foot calculated as total transaction value divided by total registered area across 39 resale deals. One limitation affects interpretation: the registration date may lag the actual sale agreement by several weeks, meaning transactions registered in H1 2025 could reflect pricing conditions from late 2024, particularly for deals finalized near period boundaries.
