Tilal Al Ghaf market reports use published Dubai Land Department transaction records as their starting point. The figures are considered at community and property-type level, alongside the timing and type of each transfer.
A single transfer can distort an average in a low-volume segment. Sample size, atypical transfers, handover timing, and differences between properties all affect how the figures should be read. Use each report as market context, not as an automatic valuation of an individual property.
