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
No off-plan sales are registered for this project since 2020, so there is no launch price.
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.
Service charges
What owners pay a year in completed buildings of the project’s master community, from their owners’ association budgets. A building’s own charge is set by its own budget.
Median AED per sq ft a year of residential owners’ association budgets, each development counted once, in the newest budget year with at least 10 developments. Plots, shared areas and hotel rooms are left out. A budget is not any one owner’s bill.
