About these figures. Every number on this page comes from Dubai Land Department records: registered sales and Ejari rent contracts for Dubai Investment Park Second. We use medians rather than averages, so a few very large or very small deals don't skew the picture. Building figures are matched on the project name DLD records. Sale and rent figures are shown for the past 6 months and the past 12 months, so the latest market sits next to the longer view. Rents cover Ejari contracts registered in each period. DLD usually registers a sale about a month after it happens, so the newest weeks are always a little light. Last updated 5 October 2026.
