Off-plan townhouses: AED 3,664,500 median

Records count unit rows, projects count schemes, and one scheme can publish more than one type. The type label is the developer's own, so a serviced tower and a plain tower both file as apartments.

Every emirate publishing at least one townhouse record, largest book first. A thin book moves on very little, so read the record count before the median.

43% of the townhouses in the book sit on the 4 BR rung, which is what the headline median is really describing. Rungs with fewer than 20 priced records inside this type are dropped. The same rungs across every type are compared in the property type note. How this product sits against the addresses that sell it: the community median is priced for the flat next door.

2028 is the heaviest year for townhouses, carrying 31% of the 300 projects that publish a completion date between 2026 and 2030. Plan shares keep only published instalment tables whose steps sum to between 90% and 110%. Handover dates are the developer's own target and are frequently revised.

15 communities publish at least 25 priced townhouse records. On price per sqft rather than ticket, the range runs from AED 1,021 in Dubai Investments Park to AED 4,294 in Al Raha Beach, a 4.2x spread on the same type.

Each of these reads townhouses inside one community: the distribution, which schemes still sell them, what the same address charges for a different product, and how it compares with its peers. A community appears only where townhouses are a real slice of its book rather than the whole of it.

Largest published book on this type first, capped at 20. A developer selling one large scheme can outrank a developer with a dozen small ones, because this counts unit records rather than projects.
