Dubai Land Department transaction register, records through 8 September 2026. Recomputed on every page load.

Burj Vista is two towers and the Land Department keeps a register for each. They are not the same size and they are not the same market: tower one has recorded several times as many sales as tower two, so it is the only one of the pair with enough depth to price by bedroom count. This page is tower one, and every figure on it is scoped to that register alone.

Its unit mix is unusual for Downtown. Most towers in the district are built around studios and one-bedroom stock; here the three-bedroom tier is the largest on the register, with two-bedrooms close behind and one-bedrooms a clear third. There is no studio tier at all.

That mix matters because of what the rate per square foot does across it. In this tower the three-bedroom tier trades at a marked premium per foot over both smaller tiers — the reverse of the pattern in most of Dubai, where the smallest unit carries the firmest rate because it has the widest pool of buyers. A buyer pricing a large unit here on the building's overall figure will be low, and a seller quoting the building's overall figure on a small unit will be high.

Every figure is computed from the Land Department register at the moment you load the page, four-month window first. These are recorded sale prices, not asking prices.

Burj Vista 1 sale prices by bedroom

Median recorded prices for Burj Vista Tower 1 by bedroom count. Each row is priced on the last 4 months wherever that period holds enough sales, and steps back only as far as it has to — 12 months, then 3 years, then the whole record. The period each row actually covers is named beside it, with the number of sales behind it, so you can see exactly how thin or deep the figure you are reading is. Every row also shows what has traded in the last 4 months, including when that is nothing — set against the full record of 1,186 recorded transactions. These are the prices buyers actually paid — not asking prices, and not a district average.

A bedroom type with fewer than five recorded transactions keeps its count and loses its median: below that sample a middle value is arithmetic, not a market rate. A median taken across the whole register mixes prices from every year the building has traded, so each row above is priced on the most recent period that clears that threshold. Rows can sum to less than the building total — very large units are held out of the table for the same reason.

Why below-market resale shows up in Burj Vista 1

  • A long pre-handover sales period. Most of what this register holds was sold before completion, and buyers who committed years ahead of handover have had years for their circumstances to change.
  • A large-unit weighting. Three-bedroom apartments carry the highest ticket in the building and the thinnest pool of buyers, and a thin pool is where a seller with a deadline meets a discount.
  • Payment-plan exposure. Where a purchase was funded on a developer plan or on finance taken at a cycle peak, a change in income or rates puts the unit on the market on the owner's timetable rather than the market's.
  • Holding cost. Service charges in this part of Downtown are levied per square foot, so a large apartment that is no longer lived in runs up a bill that moves an owner faster than a small one does.

What to check before you offer on Burj Vista 1

  • Confirm which Burj Vista tower the unit is in before you compare anything. Tower one and tower two are separate registers with separate histories, and the two are very different in depth.
  • Read the three-bedroom row on its own rather than through the building median. In this tower the large tier carries a premium per square foot, so the building-wide figure understates it and overstates the smaller tiers.
  • Ask for the current service charge per square foot and the last two years of it. In Dubai it is set per building and reviewed annually, and a rise of a dirham or two per square foot moves a mid-size flat's running cost by thousands a year.
  • Ask which register the unit sits on. A completed home changes hands on the secondary register at the Land Department; a pre-handover unit is an assignment of the original sale contract, needs the developer's no-objection certificate, and carries whatever is left of the payment plan.

Burj Vista 1 — common questions

Does this page cover both Burj Vista towers?
No. The Land Department keeps a separate register for tower one and tower two, and this page is tower one only. Tower two is a much smaller register, so blending the two would dilute the figures rather than strengthen them.
Is the price data on this page asking prices or actual sales?
Actual sales. Every figure comes from the Dubai Land Department's record of completed transactions — the price recorded when ownership legally changed hands.
Why is the three-bedroom rate per square foot higher than the smaller units?
Because this tower's premium sits in its large stock. In most Dubai buildings the smallest unit carries the firmest rate per square foot, since the lowest total ticket has the widest pool of buyers. Here the recorded sales run the other way, and the register is the evidence for it rather than an explanation of it.
Can I tell from this data whether a unit is selling below its original price?
No. The Land Department records a developer's first sale and a pre-handover resale under the same code, and the export carries no unit identifier, so an original price cannot be traced to a later sale of the same apartment.
How current is this register?
The page states the date of the most recent recorded sale it holds and recomputes every figure on load. Records arrive in batches, so the newest few days are typically not yet included.
