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.
