Changes in the DLD register
No change to the end date, status or % built across the register exports we hold.
Source: DLD projects register exports, compared by CraneScore. Planned dates against DLD's completion date. In 69% of completed projects in the register the completion date and the DLD end date are the same day, which suggests DLD sets the end date at completion, so this comparison can show no gap where there was one.

Price historyRegistered sale prices for this project, in AED per sq ft, with the number of sales in each figure.
AED · sqft
Dubai Statistics Center residential price index (flats), 2024-Q2 to 2026-Q2: +10.2%.
Prices are over apartments, the type most sales in this project are.
| Bedrooms | Sales, 24 months | Latest median AED/sqft | Latest sales |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 BR | 41 | — | — |
| 2 BR | 37 | — | — |
| 3 BR | 14 | — | — |
Launch price: median AED/sqft of the project's off-plan home sales in the 90 days from its first one, for a first sale on or after 1 March 2020; Skyline Index uses the same rule. Latest: home sales of the last 12 months after the launch window, ready and off-plan; the change compares the same home types. The bedroom table compares the launch window with the last 6 months (12 when 6 have fewer than 5 sales). Off-plan registrations include developer sales and resales; DLD open data does not tell them apart. Sales more than 4 times off the median are left out.

What launch buyers got
The launch price against the registered resales after completion, same home types on both sides.
Too few ready sales in DLD area Madinat Dubai Almelaheyah in both windows for a comparison over the same span.
Launch: the 90 days from the first off-plan sale (2020 onward). Resales: ready sales in the 12 months after the DLD completion date, or 24 when 12 hold fewer than 5. A price change is not a return: it leaves out fees, service charges, rent and the payment plan.
Rents and gross yield
New Ejari rent contracts for apartments in this project, 12 months to 5 November 2026, against the 12 months before. Fewer than 10 ready sales per bedroom count in those 12 months, so no yield is shown.
| Bedrooms | Median annual rent | New contracts | Change on a year earlier |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 BR | AED 75,000 | 20 | — |
| 2 BR | AED 120,000 | 13 | — |
New single-unit contracts only; renewals and contracts over several units are left out. A bedroom count shows from 5 contracts, a change needs 5 in both years and a yield 10 ready sales.
