Methodology
This methodology disclosure draws on Property Monitor's transaction register, which aggregates Dubai Land Department resale registrations for apartments in Dubai Creek Harbour over the period 1 July 2025 through 30 September 2025. Year-on-year comparisons reference the corresponding quarter in 2024, with percentage changes computed on both average price per square foot and transaction count. One important caveat is that registration dates may lag actual transaction closings by several weeks, meaning late-quarter deals can appear in subsequent reporting periods and affect period-to-period comparability. Off-plan transactions, while reported for context, are excluded from resale price calculations because they reflect developer list pricing rather than secondary-market valuations, and mixing the two categories can distort true resale price trends.
Glossary
- PSF
- Price per square foot, calculated by dividing the transaction price by the property's built-up area. PSF is the standard unit for comparing property values across different sizes and locations in Dubai.
- Off-plan
- Properties sold by developers before construction is complete, typically purchased through payment plans tied to construction milestones. Buyers commit to units based on plans, renders, and model apartments.
- Secondary market
- The resale market where existing properties change hands between private parties, as opposed to initial purchases from developers. Secondary transactions occur after a property has been previously owned.
- Ready property
- Completed, habitable properties available for immediate occupancy or rental. Ready properties have received completion certificates and connection to utilities.
- Resale
- Transactions where a property is sold by an owner to another buyer, rather than purchased directly from the original developer. The category includes both completed units and off-plan units being flipped before handover.
- Resale Off-Plan Origin
- Properties originally purchased off-plan from a developer that are being resold by the buyer before construction completion and title transfer. The new buyer assumes the remaining payment obligations to the developer.
- Dubai Creek Harbour
- A waterfront mixed-use development located adjacent to Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary, featuring residential towers, retail spaces, and marina facilities. The community is developed by Emaar Properties in partnership with Dubai Holding.
- Built-up area
- The total floor area of a property unit measured in square feet, including internal walls and typically excluding balconies and terraces. Built-up area is the standard measurement used in Dubai transaction records for PSF calculations.
