Dubai property valuation research
This module supports valuation work; it does not perform it. What it gives you is the evidence base a valuation rests on — recorded transactions, comparable sets and price context — organised for research rather than for a single automated number.

Key capabilities
Evidence-led research
Work from recorded transactions and comparable sets rather than from a single opaque estimate. Every figure you use can be traced back to the records behind it.
Price context at three levels
Set a subject property against its building, its community and the wider market, because a unit can be cheap for its building and expensive for its community at the same time.
Documented research trail
The research path — which comparables, which period, which filters — is visible, which matters when a conclusion has to be explained to a client, a committee or a credit file.
Business use cases
What people actually use this module for, rather than a list of what it contains.
- 1
A valuer or appraiser
Assemble and review the recorded evidence relevant to a subject property as part of a professional valuation process.
- 2
A lender reviewing a submitted valuation
Sense-check a figure against the recorded market evidence for the same building and community.
- 3
An investor forming a price view
Develop an independent view on value before negotiating, grounded in what the market has recorded.
How the analysis works
- 1
Identify the subject property
Building, community, property type and size.
- 2
Assemble the evidence
Comparable recorded sales and the price context around them.
- 3
Form and document a view
The conclusion is yours; the platform makes the basis for it explicit and reviewable.
Filters and metrics
The filters that define what a figure is computed from. Setting them before reading a number is the difference between an answer and a coincidence.
- Community
- Building
- Property type
- Size
- Comparable period
Data limitations
- PropertyMetric provides valuation research and decision support. It does not issue certified valuations, bank-approved valuations, or a live automated valuation model.
- A formal valuation for a regulated purpose requires an appropriately qualified professional and is outside what this platform does.
- Recorded transaction data does not capture every factor relevant to value, particularly unit-level condition and non-price contract terms.
Metrics used on this page
- Comparable transactions
- Recorded sales of properties similar enough to a subject property — in location, type, size and recency — to inform a view on its value. Comparables are evidence for a judgement, not a substitute for one.
- Price per square foot (AED/sqft)
- A recorded sale price divided by the property’s recorded area, expressed in AED per square foot. It allows properties of different sizes to be compared, but only compares fairly within a similar property type, location and condition.
- Median sale price
- The middle recorded sale price in a set of transactions: half sold for less, half for more. The median is used instead of the average because a small number of very high-value sales can pull an average far away from what a typical buyer paid.
- Asking price versus recorded sale price
- An asking price is what a seller advertises. A recorded sale price is what a completed transaction was registered at. The two can differ materially, and only the second is evidence of what the market paid.

Frequently asked questions
No. This module provides valuation research and decision support built on recorded market evidence. It does not produce certified valuations, bank-approved valuations, or an automated valuation model output. Where a formal valuation is required, engage a qualified valuation professional.
Yes — that is what it is for. Valuers and appraisers use it to assemble and review recorded transaction evidence and comparable sets as an input to their own professional process.
