The Downtown Dubai Desk

Downtown Dubai registered 1,058 resales in the twelve months to 8 September 2026, across 35 buildings and projects.

The Downtown Dubai desk reports the registered resale record of the Land Department's Downtown Dubai register, building by building, as the register itself names them, with each one's twelve months split by bedroom count. No single Downtown Dubai figure appears on this page: a studio in one tower and a four-bedroom apartment in another do not average, and one blended number would describe neither. Registered prices, not asking prices. The desk carries no listings.

The buildings and projects, as the register itself names them

In the twelve months to 8 September 2026, 35 Downtown Dubai buildings and projects registered resales. The register holds a resale record on 51 buildings and projects in all, 12,199 registered resales since November 2007; the 16 with nothing in the current window follow below. The most active is BURJ KHALIFA TOWERS at 117 registered resales, median AED 5 million. It is followed by 29 BOULEVARD at 74 and THE ADDRESS DUBAI OPERA at 65. The largest record on the desk belongs to BURJ KHALIFA TOWERS, 1,583 registered resales since June 2010. Each has its own page, carrying its own window split by bedroom count and its registered rent record.

Every one of these has its own page of record. See every building or project in Downtown Dubai. Or find any building or project across the Desk.

With a thin sample, the honest number is the range. Publication thresholds are the Desk's standard: median at eight or more sales in that time, the range at three to seven, the count below three. Buildings and projects are reported separately and never combined into a district figure.

The window by bedroom count

Downtown Dubai is an apartment district, and the register types a bedroom count on most of its registrations, so the desk publishes each one's window split that way rather than only as one number per tower. Across the district the 1,058 registered resales in that time read Studio on 75 registered resales, 1 B/R on 376 registered resales, 2 B/R on 422 registered resales, 3 B/R on 159 registered resales, 4 B/R on 19 registered resales. The thresholds apply here as they do everywhere else: a tower with fifty resales in that time can still owe a count and not a median on its four-bedroom stock, and their own pages print it that way. The column on the right counts the buildings and projects where that bedroom count cleared the median threshold on its own.

Buildings and projects awaiting a first registered resale

The register carries 9 further Downtown Dubai project tags with no registered resale yet: Baccarat Hotel and Residences, Dubai, BD BOULEVARD PLAZA, BURJ PARK V, THE ADDRESS RESIDENCE - SKY VIEW, THE ADDRESS RESIDENCE FOUNTAIN VIEWS II, THE ADDRESS RESIDENCE FOUNTAIN VIEWS III, THE RESIDENCE | Burj Khalifa, The St. Regis Residences, Downtown Dubai, VIDA RESIDENCE DOWNTOWN DUBAI. A building or project joins the tables above when its first resale registers. The register decides; the desk waits.

The records beyond the buildings and projects

The commercial and hospitality record holds 3,841 registered transactions. The whole-building record holds 28 registered transactions. Each of these is a different product from an apartment resale, so each is counted here and enters no figure above.

The scope of this desk, stated plainly

The Land Department does not file Downtown Dubai under the name a resident would use. Its area is Burj Khalifa, area 390, and the district itself is a master record the register writes as DownTown Dubai. That distinction is the whole scope rule of this desk, because the area is not the district. Area 390 also carries 2 other master records, 209 registered resales in all, and none of them appears in any figure on this page: Business Bay (203), Burj Khalifa (6). They are other markets with their own registers; they are censused and stated, never added together, and they are not in the awaiting roster. It also carries 25 registered resales that the register files under NO master record at all - among them VOLTA TOWER, HYDRA TOWERS, and none of them appears in any figure on this page. A row the Land Department does not file under this district's master record is not this district's to publish: an empty match leaves the figure out, and no other figure is put in its place. The master record decides what belongs on this desk, everywhere on it.

One further note on names, and it matters for anyone checking a figure against the register. Inside the district the Land Department writes tower names as the developer registered them, which is not always the name on the building or the name a buyer would type. The desk publishes the register's own name for every building or project, verbatim, including its spelling and spacing, so that any figure here can be traced back to the register row it came from. A building the register does not name is not published under a name the desk has invented for it.

What homes in Downtown Dubai actually let for

Contract typeRegistered · 12 moAnnual rentPublished as
New tenancies5,504AED 145,000median
Renewals3,821AED 140,000median

9,325 registered tenancies of a home in Downtown Dubai started in the twelve months to 9 September 2026, out of 85,699 on the register all told.

New tenancies, 5,504 of them, register at median AED 145,000 a year. Renewals, 3,821 of them, register at median AED 140,000.

This is the district's whole registered letting record. The Land Department's rent register names a project on only 51,847 of these 85,699 tenancies. 40% carry no project tag at all, where the sale register tags every one, so 35 of the 60 buildings and projects with a sale record can carry a rent figure of their own, and the rest are reported here at district grain only.

Registered tenancy contracts from the Dubai Land Department's Ejari register, counted by contract start date in the twelve months to 9 September 2026; residential villas and apartments only; excluding 14,806 commercial registrations, 98 at a nominal amount below AED 12,000 a year, 144 with a start date still in the future; New and renewal contracts counted separately and never blended; registered rents, never asking rents.

In the twelve months to 9 September 2026, 9,325 registered tenancies of a home in Downtown Dubai began, across 35 buildings and projects the rent register names.

A studio rented at a middle of AED 73,103 a year and a four bedroom home at AED 1.35M, on 632 and 67 registered tenancies.

A further 2,381 tenancies in the twelve months to 9 September 2026 carry no project name in the rent register at all, so they are counted in the district's own figures above and can be put against no building.

One caution the desk will not hide. The top of each range above is the highest rent the register holds for that size, and the register carries a small number of contracts at rents no home commands: the desk tests the bottom of the rent register and does not yet test the top. A middle rent is barely moved by a few such rows, which is why the middle is the figure to read.

Registered tenancy contracts from the Dubai Land Department's Ejari register, counted by contract start date in the twelve months to 9 September 2026; residential villas and apartments only; excluding 14,806 commercial registrations, 98 at a nominal amount below AED 12,000 a year, 144 with a start date still in the future; New and renewal contracts counted separately and never blended; registered rents, never asking rents.

The Downtown Dubai Registry Index

The desk's registry index publishes as paired CSV and JSON files: downtown-dubai-registry-index_YYYY-MM for the trailing windows, with the annual file alongside. Files are versioned monthly and never silently rewritten, under the family scheme of The Dubai Registry Index.

The index publishes when the desk opens: after the production extract passes completeness verification, the aggregates clear the publication thresholds, and a month of figures survives the audit chain.

Method, this desk

Source and completeness

Sole source: the Dubai Land Department's open register. The extract is built by repeated retrieval and unioned on transaction identity until successive retrievals add nothing new, then de-duplicated on transaction identity; an extract whose passes disagree on length is refused rather than published. Area 390 is retrieved in full, 73,533 unique registered transactions, and the desk's universe is the DownTown Dubai master record within it. Every other master record in the area is enumerated and routed to the scope record, so a transaction under a new master record fails the build until it is ruled.

Basis

Completed resales only: sale procedure, existing-property registration, duplicates removed on transaction identity. Off-plan sale registrations, delayed sales, payment-plan sales and lease-to-own financing registrations are not counted as resales here, and are counted separately every time the register is read. Registered below-market transfers remain in all counts and medians; published ranges note their presence.

Buildings, projects, bedrooms, records and thresholds

The desk reports as the register names each project: every project tag with a registered resale record is its own row, named exactly as the Land Department writes it, including its own spelling variants. Inside each one the current window is split by the register's own bedroom field. Registers that are not residential resale product route out before any figure is computed. Publication thresholds are the Desk's standard and they bind at every level, building and bedroom alike: median at eight or more sales in that time, the range at three to seven, the count below three. No unit, floor, plot or party identifier is published anywhere on this desk.

Rents

Registered rents come from the Land Department's Ejari contract register, on a separate basis from the sale figures and never mixed with them: contracts are deduplicated on contract and building identity, windowed on the contract's own start date, and New tenancies and Renewals are reported apart and never added together. Contracts registered at a nominal consideration below AED 12,000 a year are excluded as a stated basis and counted in the method note. A tenancy whose start date is in the future is excluded from the window and counted.

This edition

Built from the Dubai Land Department register as read on 8 September 2026; the method is on the method page. Every figure on this page traces to that gated registry.

The Desk-wide contract for source, verification, thresholds and corrections is set out in the method page of The Dubai Desk.


Questions the desk answers

What is the most active building or project in Downtown Dubai?

BURJ KHALIFA TOWERS: 117 registered resales in the twelve months to 8 September 2026, median AED 5 million, at a median AED 2,972 per square foot. Every other one reports on its own row above, and the desk publishes no figure that averages across them.

How many apartments change hands in Downtown Dubai?

1,058 registered resales in the twelve months to 8 September 2026, across 35 buildings and projects, on the Dubai Land Department register. All time the register holds 12,199 registered resales since November 2007.

What does a one-bedroom apartment cost in Downtown Dubai?

The desk publishes that figure per tower rather than as one district number, because the towers do not average. In the twelve months to 8 September 2026 the register carries 1,058 registered resales read Studio on 75 registered resales, 1 B/R on 376 registered resales, 2 B/R on 422 registered resales, 3 B/R on 159 registered resales, 4 B/R on 19 registered resales. Each page prints its own bedroom split, and a bedroom count with fewer than eight resales in that time publishes a range or a count instead of a median.

Why is there no single Downtown Dubai figure?

The register writes the district as 51 separate project tags of very different product, from studios to penthouses across towers built years apart. One blended number would describe none of them. The desk reports each building or project as the register itself names them, compared but never added together.

What is the highest price ever registered in Downtown Dubai?

AED 690,416,104, registered in November 2025 under the Lands without a project tag name.

Are these asking prices?

No. Every figure on this page is a registered price from a Dubai Land Department transaction, aggregated monthly under the desk's published method. The desk carries no listings.

The Desk-wide contract for source, verification, thresholds and corrections is set out in the method page of The Dubai Desk.

Homes sold before they were built, in Downtown Dubai. The Land Department records a sale from a plan separately from the resale of a finished home, and this desk never mixes the two in one figure. It holds 22,709 of them in Downtown Dubai, over 55 projects with enough of a record to publish, and the register read to 4 September 2026.
