Cayan Tower — sale prices & transaction history

Cayan Tower sale prices by bedroom

Median recorded prices for Cayan Tower 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 1,257 recorded transactions. These are the prices buyers actually paid — not asking prices, and not a district average.

Rows marked “older sales” use a longer period because recent sales were few — prices may have moved since, so compare them with care. 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.

Most recent Cayan Tower transactions

The newest individual recorded transactions on the register, exactly as recorded. A median is a claim we vouch for; these are facts you can check against the Land Department yourself.

Why below-market resale shows up in Cayan Tower

• A studio and one-bedroom weighting that skews ownership toward investors, whose exits follow their own circumstances rather than the market cycle.
• Yield-sensitive ownership: where a purchase was underwritten on rental return, a change in achievable rent or a service-charge rise can force a sale quickly.
• Age. Units first recorded in 2009 reach refurbishment cycles now, and discounting is sometimes cheaper for an exiting owner than the work.
• Mortgage exposure among units financed at cycle peaks, the fastest category to reach the market when payments stop working.

What to check before you offer on Cayan Tower

• Check the studio row separately if that is what you are buying — in most Marina towers there is no studio sample worth reading, and a district average is not a substitute.
• Confirm floor and outlook. Even in a flat-rate building these move the price of an individual unit.
• 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.

Cayan Tower — common questions

Is the price data on this page asking prices or actual sales?

Actual sales — the Dubai Land Department's record of completed transactions, meaning the price recorded when ownership legally changed hands.

Can I check studio prices for Dubai Marina here?

For this building, yes. Cayan Tower is one of the few Marina towers with enough recorded studio sales to show a building-level figure. Most Marina towers have too few to publish honestly, which is why studio pricing in the district is usually quoted as an area-wide estimate instead.

Can I tell from this data whether a unit is selling below its original price?

No. A developer's first sale and a pre-handover resale share the same procedure code in the register, and the open export carries no unit identifier, so an original price cannot be matched 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.
