What does the data show?
Palm Jumeirah combines international recognition with an active sales and rental market. The 226 quarterly resale transactions and 780 tenancy contracts provide a useful comparison base. Individual buildings should still be assessed separately because the view, service charges, unit size and building quality can materially affect performance.
