The week on the register: seven days to 20 August 2026
In the seven days to 20 August 2026 the Dubai Land Department registered 131 resales across the eleven registers this desk reads. One of them registered nothing at all, which is reported here as what it is. What follows is chosen by rule, not by eye: a resale above its line’s previous high, the first resale ever registered in a line, each district’s highest registered price of the week, and its most traded line. The register publishes with a short lag; the extract behind this note runs to 20 August 2026.

How these were chosen
Four rules, applied to the registered resales the desks already publish, at the same community and building grain and from the same archived extract. A record is computed against the line’s own registered history, never typed. Registrations the desks hold outside their lines — whole buildings, part interests, plot registrations and sub-threshold rows — are held out of this note entirely, and a record claim that would rest on a margin too small to mean anything is not made. Nothing here is an asking price and nothing here is a listing.
The desks themselves carry the twelve-month figures: Arabian Ranches, Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai Sports City, Emirates Hills, Jumeirah Golf Estates, Jumeirah Village Circle, Jumeirah Village Triangle, Motor City, Palm Jumeirah, Tilal Al Ghaf, Victory Heights.
