Individual arm’s-length sales as registered with the Dubai Land Department. Sizes are as recorded on the title deed; price is the registered consideration, which excludes transfer costs and any agency or developer charges.

Registered DLD transactions for this project. Only arm's-length 'Sales' of homes are counted; intra-family 'Gifts' transfers, zero-price rows, and land, building and villa transfers are excluded. Offices, shops, showrooms and other non-residential units in the same building are also excluded — they price far above the apartments above them and would otherwise set the top of the price-per-square-foot range. Where the register holds the same sale twice, the duplicate is removed before anything is counted. A project is published at any count, down to a single sale; below 30 qualifying sales it is marked as a small sample, and no percentage or purchase-price seed is derived from it. The registered-sales count in the headline is every sale registered against the project over its whole history, of any property type, from the DLD transaction feed; the headline median is the last six months of apartment and villa sales only, from the same feed. The remaining figures on this page (range, quarterly and monthly series, bedroom table, recent sales) are apartments and villas since the first sale in the extract. Period and bedroom figures are medians of AED per square foot, which are robust to the outliers that skew a mean on a thin sample. A bedroom row or quarter resting on a handful of registered sales is shown with its sale count and marked as a small sample, because a median over one or two sales describes those sales and not the market. Benchmarks are medians over the trailing 12 months for the same area and registration type. This is a dated extract, not a live query: it changes only when the extract is regenerated with `npm run data:dld`. Dates are the Dubai Land Department's own registration dates. Where a sale reaches us twice — once in DLD's bulk export and once in its daily feed — we keep the bulk record, and DLD registers on working days, so a sale agreed at a weekend carries the following working day. Source: Dubai Land Department (DLD) transaction register, via Mitchell's DLD pipeline. Data as at 22 Jun 2026; extract generated 10 Oct 2026.

The brief

About this project

GOLF-FRONT APARTMENT BUILDINGS AT THE HEART OF EMAAR SOUTH

Golf Hills and Golf Hills 2 are twin residential releases by Emaar at Emaar South, the master community in Dubai South laid out around an 18-hole championship golf course and close to Al Maktoum International Airport and Expo City. The two adjacent plots sit at the heart of the community, overlooking the golf course, with an infinity-edge pool framed by the fairways and a landscaped podium of parks and play areas.

The brochure describes 1, 2 and 3-bedroom apartments finished in wood, textured stone, metal and glass, with full-height glazing facing the greens. Each building has a ground floor, a podium floor and ten floors above. Homes at Golf Hills and Golf Hills 2 share the same design and amenity offer across the two buildings.

This is a single brief covering both Golf Hills and Golf Hills 2. Emaar publishes a separate fact sheet for each phase, and both carry an identical unit table: 204 homes per phase, in the mix set out below.

AMENITIES

Per the brochure, shared amenities across Golf Hills and Golf Hills 2 include:

  • 18-hole championship golf course
  • Infinity-edge pool and kids' pool
  • BBQ area
  • Padel court
  • Indoor and outdoor yoga area
  • Indoor and outdoor gym
  • Kids' play area

THE INVESTMENT CASE

LOCATION: THE HEART OF A GOLF-COURSE COMMUNITY IN DUBAI SOUTH

Emaar South is a master community in Dubai South built around an 18-hole championship golf course, with hotels, retail, healthcare, education and recreation on the master plan. The brochure positions Emaar South within reach of key destinations in under 45 minutes, citing a 5-minute drive to Al Maktoum International Airport, 30 minutes to Dubai Marina, 35 minutes to Downtown Dubai and Burj Khalifa, and 45 minutes to Dubai International Airport, with Expo City and Dubai Hills Estate also nearby. Golf Hills and Golf Hills 2 sit at the centre of the community, beside the golf course and clubhouse.

APPLICABLE STRATEGIES

  • Pre-handover resale — the construction-linked plan means a buyer commits limited capital ahead of the 2029 completion; any exit before handover depends on market conditions at the time and should be checked against live DLD data.
  • Buy-and-hold for rental — golf-front apartments at the heart of a growing Dubai South community support family long-let demand.
  • Owner-occupation — a primary or second home overlooking the golf course in a masterplanned community.

RISKS & WATCHPOINTS

  • Off-plan completion risk — according to the Dubai Land Department register, construction began in December 2025, and delivery is estimated for September 2029; timelines can move, and returns depend on the market at handover, not today's.
  • Two phases, one release — Golf Hills and Golf Hills 2 launched with identical unit tables, payment plans and completion dates on adjacent plots. That doubles the stock reaching the market at the same moment, which matters for any pre-handover exit.
  • Emerging location — Dubai South is still developing; commute times to central districts and the pace of community build-out should be weighed against the entry price.
  • Supply — Emaar South has a substantial pipeline of concurrent phases, including neighbouring golf-course releases; overlapping handovers can affect near-term resale and rental pricing.

Pricing against the market

Registered evidence · as at 22 Jun 2026

Every figure below is derived from arm’s-length sales registered with the Dubai Land Department — completed transactions, not asking prices. The register was read on 10 Oct 2026. The most recent qualifying sale at Golf Hills is dated 22 Jun 2026. Medians are of AED per square foot across all unit types unless stated otherwise.

Premium and discount compare Golf Hills’s median AED/sqft with each benchmark median from the same extract; n is the number of registered sales behind each median. A premium is neither good nor bad in itself — it reflects specification, unit mix, floor level and how recently the sales were registered. Bar length is proportional to the median shown.

The developer

Emaar

One of Dubai’s largest and longest-established master developers.

Emaar Properties is the developer behind a substantial share of Dubai’s best-known destinations, including Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall. It builds at master-community scale — Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai Creek Harbour, Emaar South, The Valley, Downtown Dubai, Emaar Beachfront and Rashid Yachts & Marina among the communities covered on this site — so an Emaar project usually sits inside an established masterplan with its own retail, schools and parks.

Emaar reports a delivery record stretching back to 2002 across Dubai and international markets.
