• 2024–2025:
• Most launches and current transactions:
• 3-bedroom: AED 2.7M–3.0M for mainstream units, AED 2.4M–2.9M for new off-plan clusters[2][5][7][1]
• 4-bedroom: AED 3.6M–3.7M; new launches often at AED 2.8M upward for base models, up to AED 3.9M+ for larger or upgraded homes[2][6][1][5]
• Average price/sq.ft: AED 1,100–1,400 (monthly peak observed May 2024)[1]
• Some prime releases (such as Elva, Velora, Venera) now launch 3-bedroom townhouses above AED 2.8M–2.93M, 4-bedrooms start at AED 2.95M and go much higher for large plots[2][1].

• The average price per square foot nearly doubled from AED 600 in 2020 to AED 1,100–1,300 in 2024/2025, with some clusters peaking above AED 1,400[1].
• The project has achieved healthy, stable annual price growth, alongside strong occupancy and demand for newer phases[1][6].

Launch Prices and their Resales for Each Townhouse Phase

Value growth reflects both appreciation and the premiumization of new phases, positioning The Valley by Emaar among Dubai’s most desirable family-friendly townhouse communities in the current property cycle[1][6][2][5][7].

Final Opinion:

• The entry price of 1285PSF is 15-20% lower than the independent secondary market of Valley 1 (Eden, Nara & Talia). Extremely fair-priced.
• ⁠ Competition has smaller plots, higher PSF and higher density communities. Emaar leaving huge value on the table for investors due to the first launch in a new community.
• Never bet against Emaar.
