Ready or off-plan? They are not the same price
Off-plan in Deira Islands register about 24% above ready, per square foot. Most places publish one blended figure, which is nobody’s actual market.
Ready
AED 2,225/sqft
Median AED 2.34M · 24 registered sales
Off-plan
AED 2,754/sqft
Median AED 2.85M · 4,354 registered sales
Blended, the way it is usually published: AED 2,751/sqft across all 4,378 registered sales. Useful for a trend, misleading for a purchase.
We measured this across every community busy enough to test: off-plan versus ready in Dubai, and which actually costs more.
A gap does not mean one is overpriced. Off-plan stock skews towards newer developments and a payment plan has its own value. These are two markets, priced differently.
