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

Prive by DAMAC is two towers, A and B, and the Land Department keeps a register for each. This page is tower A, and every figure on it is scoped to that register — a price quoted for "Prive" without a tower letter could belong to either.

Tower A is a studio building. Studios account for roughly three in every four sales ever recorded here, with a much smaller one-bedroom tier and a thin two-bedroom tier above. That concentration is what makes the studio figure on this page unusually dependable: it draws on most of the building's whole history rather than a slice of it.

The larger tiers are the opposite. The two-bedroom tier trades so rarely that its row has to reach back well beyond the current year to find a sample, and it prints the period it used. Read it as a long-run figure, not as this quarter's price.

The studio rate per square foot sits well above the one-bedroom rate here — the ordinary Dubai pattern, where the smallest unit has the lowest total ticket and therefore the widest pool of buyers.

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

Prive A sale prices by bedroom

Median recorded prices for Prive by DAMAC Tower A 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 792 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 Prive A

  • An investor-held studio register. Studios in Business Bay are bought for yield and short-let income, not to live in, and a yield decision is reversed as soon as the numbers change.
  • Short-let dependence. Where a studio was bought on holiday-let returns, a softer season or a change in the rules moves an owner toward selling faster than a change in long-term rents would.
  • Supply of near-identical units. Where most apartments in a building are the same product, a seller who needs to move quickly competes directly against neighbours selling the same thing.
  • Service-charge sensitivity. On a studio the annual charge takes a large share of net return, so a rise pushes a marginal holder toward the exit.

What to check before you offer on Prive A

  • Confirm the tower letter before comparing prices. Prive A and Prive B are separate registers with separate histories.
  • Use the studio row for a studio and the window label on every larger row. The one and two-bedroom tiers trade far less often here, so their figures may describe an older market than the studio figure does.
  • 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.

Prive A — common questions

Does this page cover both Prive by DAMAC towers?
No. The Land Department keeps a separate register for tower A and tower B, and this page is tower A only. Every figure here is computed from that tower's own recorded sales.
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 two-bedroom row priced on an older period?
Because this is a studio building and its two-bedroom units trade rarely. Rather than quote a rate off too few recent deals, the row steps back until it finds a publishable sample and prints the period that covers.
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.
