Description as recorded by DLD

The Cosmopolitan is a freehold residential & commercial development located in Business Bay area. The building consists of 3 Basement floors + Ground + Health Club + 18 Typical Floors.

Reproduced from the register verbatim, including its own abbreviations. It is the developer’s filed description, not our assessment of the project.

Project escrow account
Escrow trustee bankAbu Dhabi Commercial Bank
Escrow account632247159001

Under Dubai Law No. 8 of 2007 every payment on a registered off-plan project goes into that project’s escrow account, held at a DLD-approved trustee bank and released to the developer against verified construction progress — not to the developer direct and not to a broker. Check these details in DLD’s own Dubai REST app against the project number above before you transfer anything, and treat any account number that differs from the one DLD shows as a reason to stop. Substituted account details are a known fraud in this market. Reproduced from the DLD register as at 4 Oct 2026; account details can change, and DLD’s record is the authority, not this page.

Source: Dubai Land Department project register. The developer, area, counts and filed dates are as recorded at 4 Oct 2026; the project status and escrow details as at 4 Oct 2026. Construction progress carries the date of the DLD site inspection that produced it, which is a different date again and is stated on the row — where the register holds no dated inspection, no percentage is published rather than an undated one. “Registered completion date” is the completion date on file at DLD; it is a date on record, not a guarantee of handover, and where that date has already passed it means only that the register has not been updated, not that the project handed over. Homes counted as registered apartments plus registered villas. Figures on this panel are the registry’s, and are stated as at different dates from the transaction figures elsewhere on the page. Registered completion: Mar 2014.

REGISTERED SALE PRICES

990 sales were registered against The Cosmopolitan between 24 Mar 2008 and 29 Sep 2026 — a span of 222 months. Those are completed registrations at the Dubai Land Department, not asking prices or listings.

Business Bay: 1,909 AED/sqft, 2,308 sales, resale only, 12 months to 5 Oct 2026

The two figures behind that percentage are not drawn on the same population. This project’s median covers every registration type across the whole register we hold (28 Apr 2025 to 5 Oct 2026). The area figure covers resale only in Business Bay over the 12 months to 5 Oct 2026, pooled on the transaction register’s own area name, which does not always match the project register’s name shown above. Unit mix, floor level and view are not controlled for on either side, and neither is use class: DLD registers offices and shops as units, so registered retail and office sales are pooled into both figures, and retail trades at a materially higher rate per square foot than residential stock in the same building. In sectors where commercial space is a large share of what registers, the area figure sits well above the residential rate. Read it as an indication of where this project sits in its area, not as a like-for-like comparison.

A quarter with fewer than 20 registered sales is drawn hollow, with its sale count underneath. The change between quarters is quoted only between quarters that reached 20. Points are spaced evenly rather than by date.

Every band shows its median with its sale count. A band with fewer than 5 registered sales is shown in a lighter tone: read it as those sales, not as the rate for that unit type.

Registration timing
Registration typeSalesMedian AED/sqft
Registered before completion0—
Registered after completion371,576

DLD splits registrations by timing: an off-plan registration is entered before the unit legally completes, an existing registration after. Where both appear, the gap between them reflects that difference as much as any movement in value. A side with fewer than 5 registered sales is shown in a lighter tone: read it as those sales, not as a rate.

Basis: Dubai Land Department transaction register, arm’s-length sales of units and villas only. Gifts, mortgage registrations, zero-price rows, land plots and whole-building transfers are excluded, as are AED/sqft values outside 100–20,000. Figures are medians, not averages. The medians, trend and quarterly table above are drawn on the part of the register we hold in full detail, which runs from 28 Apr 2025 to 5 Oct 2026; 28 Apr 2025 is the earliest date there, not the date this project started selling. The sale count and date span in the opening sentence cover all registered history to 2 Oct 2026, from the transaction feed below. This page is a dated extract taken on 6 Oct 2026, not a live query. Past registered prices are evidence of what has been paid, not a forecast of future value.

Source: Dubai Land Department sales register, every registered sale held against this project, as at 2 Oct 2026. The count is every registered sale, of any property type, over the project’s whole history. The median is a separate measure: it covers the 6 months to that date and uses only apartment and villa sales in that period that carry a price and an area. Offices, shops, land and other non-residential sales are listed above but never enter it. Areas are DLD’s square metres converted to square feet.
