Methodology
This analysis of City Walk apartment resales during Q3 2025 (July 1 through September 30, 2025) draws on transaction data from Property Monitor, which aggregates Dubai Land Department registration records. Year-on-year comparisons reference the corresponding quarter in 2024 to measure changes in average price per square foot, transaction volume, and total transacted value. Readers should note that registration dates may lag actual sale agreement dates by several weeks, meaning transactions recorded in Q3 2025 could reflect market conditions from earlier months; this temporal offset can affect period-to-period comparability, particularly when interpreting short-term trends or comparing resale activity against off-plan sales, which follow different registration and reporting timelines within the Dubai Land Department system.
