Marina Quay West — sale prices & transaction history

Marina Quay West sale prices by bedroom

Median recorded prices for Marina Quay West 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 580 secondary-market sales. 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 Marina Quay West

• Several layouts under one bedroom count. Two-bedroom sales here sit at several different sizes and one-bedroom sales at more than one, so a smaller unit can sell for less than its row's median price without being cheap for its size.
• Rental arithmetic. Where a one-bedroom apartment has been bought as a rental, it tends to be sold when the rent stops covering the service charge and any mortgage, whatever the market is doing.
• Rarely traded unit types. Studios and three-bedrooms change hands so seldom here that a seller has little recent evidence to price against, and a seller who must move quickly is more exposed to a low offer.
• Loan pressure. An owner whose mortgage repayments have become hard to meet often has to sell on the lender's timetable rather than the market's.

What to check before you offer on Marina Quay West

• Confirm which Marina Quay register the unit is on. Marina Quay West, Marina Quay North and Marina Quay East are separate registers, and a price quoted for 'Marina Quay' without the tower name could belong to any of them.
• Compare two-bedroom and one-bedroom units per square foot. Two-bedrooms here have sold at a higher rate per square foot than one-bedrooms in every period where both can be priced, so the larger apartment is not the cheaper option on that measure.
• Check the period printed beside each row before using its figure. Rows are priced on the most recent period that holds enough sales, so a figure from an older period can sit well away from today's market.
• 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.

Marina Quay West — common questions

Does this page include Marina Quay North or Marina Quay East?

No. The Land Department keeps separate registers for Marina Quay West, Marina Quay North and Marina Quay East, and this page covers Marina Quay West only.

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 does the table stop at three bedrooms?

Because the Land Department has recorded no sale of a larger apartment in Marina Quay West, and the table shows a row only for a bedroom type that has sold.

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.
