What this means if you are buying or selling

Prices per sq ft moved up in October. For a seller in Palm Jumeirah that is the moment to get a valuation grounded in registered sales rather than asking prices; for a buyer it is a reason to look at what actually closed before agreeing a number.

Where does this data come from?

From the Dubai Land Department's open data on sales registrations, refreshed daily by ERE Homes and summarised here once a month. Figures are registered sale prices, not asking prices; an off-plan registration is the contract price. Registrations can be added or corrected by the DLD after the month closes, so small revisions appear in the next update.
