About the Investment Scanner
How the investment scanner works
We match your property to the Dubai Land Department registry and score five areas with fixed rules: developer track record (25), location (25), price per sqft (20), facilities (15) and surrounding supply (15). No AI model decides a score. Missing data is left out rather than counted for or against the property, and we only show an overall score when at least 70% of the weighted evidence, including a price comparison, is available.
How Dubai property prices are compared
Your price per square foot is compared with the median of registered sales — not asking prices on listing portals. We first look for the same unit type in the same project, then the whole project, then the community. The number of sales and the period are shown so you can judge how reliable the comparison is.
Why developer track records matter
With off-plan property you rely on the developer to finish the building as promised and to stand behind it afterwards. We score five parts: completed projects (5), delivery reliability (5), construction quality (7), complaints and aftersales (5) and experience (3). Completions, delays and years active come from the DLD registry. Quality and aftersales are only scored with independent evidence such as inspections or documented defects; without it they show as not independently verified and lower the evidence coverage. Many completed projects alone cannot produce a high score.
How amenities affect property value
Pools, gyms and parks make a building more attractive to tenants, but they also raise service charges. We compare the number of facilities the developer publishes with other new projects in the same community, and treat this as one factor rather than a measure of quality.
How surrounding supply affects investments
When many units complete in the same area at the same time, rents and resale prices can come under pressure. We compare the units in registered projects under construction with the number of sales in the community over the last year. Announced but unregistered projects are not counted.
Limitations of automated assessments
The scanner does not inspect the unit, the floor, the view or the contract. Transport, schools and shops are not scored yet. Market data runs up to the date shown and figures change. Use the result as a first screen and check the details with an advisor before buying.
