Dubai property prices by area in 2026: the 110 registry areas
Dubai property prices by area: not the listings, but the sales registered by the Dubai Land Department in 2026.
Dubai property prices by area: the official registry areas
The Dubai property prices by area you find here are not advertised prices: they are the sales recorded by the Dubai Land Department. From January 1 to October 10, 2026 the registry counts 107,836 residential sales across 110 areas with at least 60 sales; the median price of apartments across Dubai is AED 18,442 per m² (about €4,481 per m²). For 15 areas we have a dedicated page (bedrooms, month-by-month trend, projects and rental yield): they are the underlined names in the tables.
“m” stands for millions; “median” is the middle value: half of the sales are below, half above. The registry uses area names that do not always match commercial names: where there is no dedicated page the name is the registry’s. Euro values are an indicative conversion (USD 1 = AED 3.6725; EUR 1 = USD 1.1206, ECB October 9, 2026).

Price per square metre compares similar apartments well; between villa areas and studio areas the comparison makes no sense. Before an offer, look at the sales in the same building, not just the area median.
