Methodology
The resale market data for DAMAC Hills 2 townhouses and villas presented in this report derives from Property Monitor's aggregation of Dubai Land Department transaction registrations covering the period from 1 January 2026 to 31 March 2026. Year-on-year comparisons reference the corresponding quarter of the previous calendar year (Q1 2025), with metrics including average price per square foot, transaction count, and total transaction value computed from completed resale registrations only. Off-plan transaction figures are reported separately and reflect sales of properties not yet completed at the time of registration. Readers should note that Dubai Land Department registrations typically lag actual sale agreements by several weeks, meaning transactions registered in Q1 2026 may reflect purchase agreements concluded in late 2025, and some agreements signed during the quarter may appear in subsequent reporting periods.
