5242 Tower 1, Dubai Marina: asking prices vs. registered sale prices

23 live resale listings, 7 registered sales in the last three months.

Area: Dubai Marina (Marsa Dubai). Data as of 17 September 2026. Listings collected 20 September 2026.

Asking prices in 5242 Tower 1 run +26.7% against what buyers paid in this building. The comparison is the median asking price per square metre of the 23 live listings against the median of 7 registered sales in this building (all unit sizes in the building, last 3 months). There is room to negotiate: the gap is wide enough that the registered price, not the asking price, is the number to start from.

Months of stock: 10. 23 live resale listings against 7 sales registered in this building in the last three months, so neither side has much leverage.

By bedrooms

Paid AED/sqft: median of the sales registered in this building with the same number of bedrooms, last three months where there are at least three, otherwise six months, otherwise every unit size in the building. Where the registry has no recent sale in the building at all, the difference falls back on area comparables and the reliability drops to low.
