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 9 Oct 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

APARTMENTS AND TOWNHOUSES AROUND PARKS AND GREEN PATHS IN EXPO CITY DUBAI

Terra Woods is a residential development by Emaar within Expo Living, the developer's residential collection at Expo City Dubai — the former Expo 2020 site in Dubai South. The community is set among lush parks and tranquil gardens, a short walk from Expo City and the Dubai Exhibition Centre, with the wider city reached via the adjacent Expo Metro line and Al Maktoum International Airport nearby.

The development comprises 824 residences: 1, 2 and 3-bedroom apartments across a cluster of mid-rise buildings, together with a small number of townhouses. Homes are designed with floor-to-ceiling windows and balconies that open onto green pathways and courtyards, with views across the community's parks, ponds and the future Central Park on one side and the city on the other. Apartments run from 741.85 to 1,676.05 square feet and the six townhouses from 2,581.29 to 2,701.63 square feet, with starting prices from AED 1.6 million.

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 100% completion, scheduled for March 2030.

THE INVESTMENT CASE

LOCATION: A CONNECTED COMMUNITY IN EXPO CITY DUBAI

Expo City Dubai is the master-planned district built on the Expo 2020 site in Dubai South, anchored by the Dubai Exhibition Centre and Al Wasl Plaza and served by its own metro station on the Dubai Metro. Terra Woods sits within this district, a five-minute walk from Expo City and Dubai Expo Mall, with the Expo Metro station alongside. Al Maktoum International Airport is around ten minutes' drive, Dubai Marina around fifteen, and Downtown Dubai around thirty-five. The position pairs a green, low-density residential setting with direct access to a growing exhibition, business and events hub.

APPLICABLE STRATEGIES

  • Pre-handover resale — the construction-linked plan means a buyer commits limited capital ahead of the 2030 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 — apartments and townhouses beside a metro station, an airport and a major exhibition district support long-let demand.
  • Owner-occupation — a primary home in a green, amenity-led community within an emerging Dubai South district.

RISKS & WATCHPOINTS

  • Off-plan completion risk — delivery is scheduled for March 2030; timelines can move, and returns depend on the market at handover, not today's.
  • Emerging district — Expo City Dubai is a maturing community; the surrounding retail, transport and amenity base is still being built out, which affects near-term rental depth and resale liquidity.
  • Service charges — amenity-led communities carry service charges that affect net yield; confirm the applicable rate.
  • Supply — Expo Living and the wider Dubai South area have a substantial delivery pipeline; concurrent handovers can affect near-term resale and rental pricing.

Pricing against the market

Registered evidence · as at 9 Oct 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 Terra Woods is dated 9 Oct 2026. Medians are of AED per square foot across all unit types unless stated otherwise.

Premium and discount compare Terra Woods’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.
