Dubai Real Estate — DLD open data, cleaned and aggregated

Registered property sales, rent contracts and the project registry of the Dubai Land Department (DLD), cleaned and aggregated by Dubai Data — the same numbers that are published on the portal, exported from its nightly build.

• Data through: 2026-10-22 (DLD publishes with a lag of a few working days)
• Updated: weekly from the portal's nightly build
• Methodology: https://datadubai.ae/methodology/ — outlier trimming, minimum samples, how yields are computed
• Sources and row counts: https://datadubai.ae/sources/
• Every row links back to its page on the portal (url column) with charts, context and the latest figures.
• Mirrors: Hugging Face · GitHub — identical files.

Files

File	Rows	What it holds
data/market_monthly.csv	120	Dubai-wide monthly medians: price per sqft (median, q1, q3), median price, number of registered sales. Built homes, outliers trimmed per the methodology.
data/market_yearly.csv	17	Dubai-wide yearly totals since 2010: sales count, median price, median price per sqft, total registered value (AED).
data/market_bedrooms.csv	6	Last 12 complete months by bedroom count: median price, price per sqft, size, annual rent and gross yield.
data/communities.csv	111	113 master communities, last 12 complete months: sales, median price and price per sqft, year-on-year change, off-plan share, data quality flag.
data/community_monthly.csv	5,722	Monthly price-per-sqft medians and IQR for every community (5 years).
data/community_yearly.csv	1,403	Yearly sales and medians for every community since 2010.
data/community_bedrooms.csv	418	Community × bedroom count: median price, price per sqft, annual rent, gross yield.
data/rents_by_community.csv	102	Ejari rent contracts, last 12 months: contracts and median annual rent (AED) per community.
data/yields_by_community.csv	75	Gross rental yield per community, computed inside property-class × bedroom segments (never as the ratio of two community-wide medians).
data/areas.csv	97	DLD land-registry areas: sales, medians, off-plan share.
data/developers.csv	367	Developers active in the DLD project registry: projects, units, sales, medians. Company records only — no contact details.
data/projects.csv	770	Registered projects: developer, status, construction completion %, completion date, units, escrow bank, and sales medians. Coordinates only where the registry has a real point.

Notes on the numbers

• Medians, not averages; price per sqft uses built homes only; outliers outside P1–P99 are removed.
• A figure is published only when the sample is large enough; quality marks thin samples.
• Gross yield = median annual rent / median price within the same property class and bedroom count, then the median across segments for a place — dividing two place-wide medians would mix villas with studios.
• Sales data: DLD transactions (2010 →). Rents: Ejari contracts (2023 →). Projects: DLD project registry.
