Methodology
This report analyzes resale transactions for townhouses and villas in DAMAC Hills 2 during Q1 2025 (January 1 to March 31, 2025), drawing on Property Monitor's transaction register, which aggregates Dubai Land Department resale registrations. The average price per square foot of AED 825 and the transaction count of 200 are derived from completed resale deals recorded in this period, with year-on-year comparisons calculated against Q1 2024 data. Readers should note that the resale dataset captures only secondary market transfers and excludes the 976 off-plan transactions totaling AED 2,007,572,077 in value during the same quarter; because off-plan deals register at different lifecycle stages than ready property resales, direct price comparisons between the two segments may not reflect equivalent market conditions or buyer profiles.
