How each factor was measured
Each factor with what it was measured on. Its score and the reasoning are in the full breakdown.
- Price against what buyers actually paid
- 99 registered off-plan sales here, against the median of 1,153 off-plan sales in Dubai Islands · DLD
- Developer track record
- Our rating, 15 delivered projects, how its 11 finished buildings resell and who stands behind it

- Our rating of Dubai Islands, and 5 kinds of places measured from the pin · OpenStreetMap
- How big the resale market is
- 24 resales of finished apartments in Dubai Islands this year · DLD
- Construction on schedule
- Not assessed yet: needs the completion % and handover date, or the owner's assessment
- How much is still being built nearby
- 3,857 homes sold in Dubai Islands this year, 99% off-plan · DLD
- The basics on file
- Not assessed yet: needs the project's DLD registration or escrow account number
Confidence medium: what buyers paid here is a median of 99 registered sales, against 1,153 in the area; the developer's record is not on either register under the names we hold, so its rating rests on its own pages and the press.
