The number of sales matters
A single inexpensive transaction should not define your expectations for a neighbourhood. Where fewer than three comparable sales fall under the ceiling, the table does not suggest a typical size or price. A larger group gives you more homes to inspect in the individual records.
The area shown includes whatever is included in the registered apartment area. It is not a measurement of usable living-room and bedroom space. For a terrace-heavy layout, ask for the apartment and terrace areas separately.
Keep the purchase budget separate from the moving budget
If AED 2 million is your total available cash rather than the property-price limit, reserve room for the costs of acquisition and the first year. Request an itemised estimate for your own transaction. Furniture, repairs and a deposit on utilities can also change the cash needed to move in.
Use the budget comparison to change the ceiling and bedroom count. Shortlist buildings where several relevant apartments have sold, then check asking prices and availability with a licensed broker. Past sales help frame the discussion; they do not create an offer today.
