In the seven days to 26 August 2026 the Dubai Land Department registered 211 resales across the twelve 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 the previous high under its name, the first resale ever registered under a name, each district’s highest registered price of the week, and its most traded tower or community. The register publishes with a short lag; the extract behind this note runs to 26 August 2026.

How these were chosen

Four rules, applied to the registered resales the desks already publish, for the same towers and communities and from the same archived extract. A record is computed against that name's own registered history, never typed. Registrations the desks hold outside their own rows (whole-tower transfers, 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 Marina, Dubai Sports City, Emirates Hills, Jumeirah Golf Estates, Jumeirah Village Circle, Jumeirah Village Triangle, Motor City, Palm Jumeirah, Tilal Al Ghaf, Victory Heights.
