What the transaction data says
Over the last 90 days, 524 sales transacted in Dubai Marina through the DLD register, with the median deal at AED 1.66M — equivalent to AED 1,695/sqft. Transacted Dubai Marina prices are down 16.1% from the same window last year — a repricing that widens the entry window for buyers. Volume has cooled from 681 sales in the same window last year to 524 now (-23.1%), which tends to hand negotiating leverage to committed buyers.
Rentals underpin the Dubai Marina story: 795 tenancy contracts registered in the window, with the median contract at AED 118,000 a year (AED 101/sqft). New lettings are being signed around 11.3% above renewal rates (AED 128,000 vs AED 115,000) — the direction of travel for landlords re-letting at market. Dubai Marina rents have edged up 2.6% year on year. Put together, that prices Dubai Marina as a genuine cash-flow market: a 7.1% gross yield on DLD transacted values, compressing to roughly 5.4% at today's asking prices.
A note on pricing: sellers in Dubai Marina are currently asking a median 22.6% above what actually transacts — real negotiation headroom if you buy on DLD evidence rather than portal prices. Median building occupancy is 92% across 128 sampled buildings, and stable — homes here are lived in, not parked. Live supply stands at 1,009 portal listings marketed by 308 different agencies — set that against 524 actual closings in the last 90 days to gauge how fast stock clears.
