A mostly completed area, led by its own developer

Of the 24 buildings and communities with pages on our site, 17 are completed and 7 are off-plan or under construction. Al Barari, the developer, has 18 of the 24 projects, so the area is shaped largely by one company, with a handful of other developers adding single projects.

The sales figures cover a wide range of home types. In the latest 12 months, Dubai Land Department recorded 241 apartment sales, 85 villa and townhouse sales and 35 land sales. By bedroom count, there were 14 studios, 90 one-bedroom units, 104 two-bedroom units, 28 three-bedroom units, 55 four-bedroom units and 4 five-bedroom units. Two-bedroom and one-bedroom units lead, but four-bedroom homes are the next largest group, so the area serves buyers of very different sizes. Five-bedroom sales are so few that they give little to compare against.

What Dubai Land Department recorded in 12 months

Over the latest 12 months, Dubai Land Department recorded 363 sales in Al Barari. Of those, 232 were ready and 131 were off-plan. The median sale price was AED 5,800,000 and the median price was AED 2,709.59 per sq ft. The most recent sale in the figures was on 12 May 2026. You can browse the registered transactions and read how these figures are counted.

An area median is the middle value: half of the sales were priced below it and half above. In Al Barari it blends studios with five-bedroom homes, apartments with houses and plots, so the median will not match any single home. With only 363 sales in the year, one or two very large sales can also move it. Use it as a reference point and then compare the home you like with homes of the same type, size and building.

Asking prices by bedroom count

These are asking prices from sale listings, not sale prices. The final figure depends on negotiation, the building and the condition of the home. In October 2026:

• One-bedroom homes were listed at typical asking prices of AED 3,459,000 to AED 4,100,000, with a median of AED 3,528,000 across 49 listings.
• Two-bedroom homes were listed at AED 5,102,000 to AED 6,360,000, with a median of AED 5,518,000 across 71 listings.
• Three-bedroom homes were listed at AED 7,081,000 to AED 12,388,000, with a median of AED 8,454,000 across 56 listings.
• Four-bedroom homes were listed at AED 7,900,000 to AED 10,500,000, with a median of AED 8,800,000 across 97 listings.

The three-bedroom range is the widest, from AED 7,081,000 to AED 12,388,000. A range like that means the label "three-bedroom" covers very different homes, so compare built-up area, plot size and building before you compare prices.

Developers with the most projects here

Al Barari has 18 projects here on our site. Five other developers each have 1 project: Elevate Group, Five Holdings, Range Developments, Seven Mayfair Development and Tiger Properties.

When the area's own developer built most of what you are comparing, look at how its earlier buildings have been maintained. A 2009 building tells you how the same developer's work ages, which is useful when you are looking at a 2025 one.

How to choose between buildings here

Begin with ready or off-plan. The sales lean towards ready, with 232 ready sales against 131 off-plan, so you have a resale market to compare against. A ready home lets you inspect the finishing, check the service charge bill and meet neighbours. An off-plan home gives you a payment schedule and a handover date, but until handover that date is the developer's target.

Then compare by area, not by label. Ask for the built-up area and the plot size in sq ft, and divide the asking price by the built-up area. Because the asking ranges are wide, particularly for three-bedroom homes, a price per sq ft tells you more than a bedroom count. Ask for the annual service charge and what it covers, which parking comes with the home and what the owners' association spends on common areas. View a ready home at different times, once on a weekday morning and once at the weekend, and ask about the view from the actual unit, not from a similar one.

A checklist for buying in Al Barari

Most sales here are ready, so the steps start with the title and the owners' association, then cover off-plan.

1. Decide between a ready home and an off-plan one, and fix a maximum price for the bedroom count you want.
2. For a ready home, ask to see the title deed and confirm that the seller named on it is the person selling.
3. Ask the seller for the latest service charge statement and the owners' association budget, and make sure no balance is outstanding.
4. Confirm the built-up area, plot size, number of bedrooms and parking in writing, and match them to what you viewed.
5. Complete the transfer through Dubai Land Department and keep copies of every document.
6. Before accepting a newly finished home, do a snagging inspection and list every defect in writing.
7. For off-plan, check that the developer and the project are registered with Dubai Land Department and ask for the escrow account details.
8. Get the dated payment schedule in writing and read the sale and purchase agreement in full, including the handover date and the terms if it is delayed.
9. Check that an off-plan purchase is registered on Oqood in your name, and pay only into the escrow account named in the contract.
10. If you will let the home, register the tenancy contract on Ejari.
