Unit counts and starting prices per the Emaar fact sheet; areas are total areas (suite plus balcony) per the Emaar floor-plan pack, spanning every drawn layout. The two documents agree: the minimum BUA the fact sheet publishes for each type — 788, 1,158, 1,649 and 2,651 sq ft — is the smallest layout drawn in the plans. The fact sheet states no maximum, so the upper figures come from the floor plans alone. Townhouse types 1 and 1A are both 2,799.26 sq ft, type 2 is 2,730.48 and type 2A is 2,651.37. Townhouses are duplex homes.

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 17 Aug 2026; extract generated 10 Oct 2026. Past registered prices are evidence of what has been paid, not a forecast of future value.

The brief

About this project

GOLF-SIDE APARTMENTS AND TOWNHOUSES IN EMAAR SOUTH

Grove Ridge is a residential development by Emaar at Emaar South, the Dubai South master community set around an 18-hole championship golf course, near Al Maktoum International Airport and Expo City. The development is arranged as two apartment towers and a row of townhouses around landscaped grounds and pools, with homes designed around open-plan layouts and green views across the course and community.

The development comprises 193 units: 1, 2 and 3-bedroom apartments together with 3-bedroom townhouses. Apartments run from 788 to 1,754 square feet, with starting prices from AED 1.27 million; the townhouses are laid out as duplex homes of 2,651 to 2,799 square feet.

Emaar has structured the launch around a construction-linked payment plan — a 10% down payment followed by further instalments tied to construction milestones, with the final payment due on completion, estimated for September 2029.

THE INVESTMENT CASE

LOCATION: 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 retail, hotels, healthcare, education and recreation planned across the neighbourhood. Per the Emaar fact sheet, Grove Ridge is a 5-minute drive from Al Maktoum International Airport, around 30 minutes from Dubai Marina, 35 minutes from Downtown Dubai and Burj Khalifa, and 45 minutes from Dubai International Airport. The position pairs a golf-side, low-density setting with proximity to the new airport and Expo City.

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-side apartments and townhouses near Al Maktoum International Airport and Expo City support long-let demand.
  • Owner-occupation — a primary or second home in a golf-course community with a full amenity set.

RISKS & WATCHPOINTS

  • Off-plan completion risk — delivery is estimated for September 2029; timelines can move, and returns depend on the market at handover, not today's.
  • Location trade-off — Emaar South sits toward the southern edge of the city; commute times to central districts should be weighed against the value on offer, though proximity to Al Maktoum International Airport is a longer-term driver.
  • Supply — Dubai South and Emaar South have a substantial delivery pipeline; concurrent handovers can affect near-term resale and rental pricing.
  • Service charges — golf-community and amenity-led developments carry service charges that affect net yield.

Pricing against the market

Registered evidence · as at 17 Aug 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 Grove Ridge is dated 17 Aug 2026. Medians are of AED per square foot across all unit types unless stated otherwise.

Premium and discount compare Grove Ridge’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.

A change between two period medians, not a compounded annual rate and not a forecast. Period medians move with the mix of units sold as well as with price, so read this alongside the sample sizes in each period.

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.
