Dubai Land Department transaction register, records through 8 September 2026. Recomputed on every page load.
Sulafa Tower sits at the accessible end of the Dubai Marina price ladder, and its register reflects that: recorded continuously since 2009 and weighted heavily toward one-bedroom apartments, which account for the clear majority of every sale ever filed here. Where a tower's sales concentrate in one tier, that tier's middle is a genuine market rate rather than an artefact of a few deals.
There are no studios in this building. Every unit the register files sits at one bedroom or above, which is worth knowing before comparing it against Marina towers whose cheapest entry point is a studio — the two are not the same product and a district average blends them anyway.
The complication here is the opposite one. What the register files as a one-bedroom in this tower spans a very wide range of floor areas, from units smaller than some studios elsewhere in the Marina up to apartments larger than a two-bedroom in a neighbouring building. A one-bedroom median therefore describes a spread, not a layout.
Every figure is computed from the Land Department register when you load the page, four-month window first. These are recorded sale prices, not asking prices.
Sulafa Tower sale prices by bedroom
Median recorded prices for Sulafa 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 966 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 Sulafa Tower
- A very high concentration of one-bedroom stock. Small units in the Marina are bought by investors far more than by residents, and investor-owned units come to market on the investor's timetable.
- Position on the price ladder. Entry-level Marina stock turns over faster than trophy stock, and faster turnover produces a steady supply of motivated sellers rather than an occasional one.
- Age. Stock first recorded in 2009 has reached the point in its life where kitchens, bathrooms and air conditioning need replacing, and some owners prefer to discount rather than fund the work.
- Yield sensitivity. Where a purchase was underwritten on rental return, a service-charge rise or a softer achievable rent can turn a held asset into a sold one quickly.

- Check the recorded floor area of the specific unit against the typical size shown on its bedroom row. In this tower the one-bedroom label covers layouts of very different sizes, so an apartment well under or well over that typical figure is not the unit the median describes.
- Do not compare this building against a Marina studio price. It has no studio tier, so the cheapest genuine comparison here is a small one-bedroom.
- 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.
Sulafa Tower — common questions
- 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, not what a seller is advertising.
- Why is there no studio row for this building?
- Because the Land Department has never recorded a studio sale here. The tower's smallest units are filed as one-bedroom apartments, so a studio row would be empty and we do not print empty rows.
- Why can one-bedroom apartments here differ so much in size?
- Because the tower contains several different one-bedroom layouts and the Land Department files them all under the same bedroom count. The row shows the typical size behind its median, and comparing the specific unit's floor area against that figure matters more here than it would in a tower built on one repeated plan.
- 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.
