Our stock as of 28 August 2026. The per-square-foot spread within the belt is 1.7x, while the gap between the belt and Bluewaters (6,717) is sixfold. The median and the price per square foot diverge: a high median means large lots, not an expensive district.
AED 720,000 for an apartment
Sports City in our database has 5 lots at a price per square foot of AED 1,083 and a median of AED 700,000.
AED 720,000 is about $196,000. That's the floor of the market for a whole apartment in Dubai.
The building is fourteen years old, the district has no metro, and the developer works in the hospitality and mass-market segment. Each of those factors alone brings a discount; together, they bring a price roughly half even the affordable belt's level.
The association's records need checking: in a dense fourteen-year-old building, upcoming repairs are only a matter of time, and owners foot the bill.
The propsearch passport: 19 storeys, 386 residences, developer The First Group, handover 2012. Our own stock as of 28 August 2026: the project's lot (size, price, price per square foot), medians and prices per square foot for the affordable belt.

Emirates Golf Club, Montgomerie, Dubai Creek, The Els Club, Dubai Hills, Arabian Ranches and Jumeirah Golf Estates: when each opened, who designed it and which communities surround it. A buyer's guide for people choosing the home, not the membership.
A master development built around sports venues and academies. Themed districts age in a specific way, and this one is old enough to show how — which makes it unusually easy to assess.
A developer selling rooms in operating hotels rather than apartments. What a hotel unit is legally and financially, and the questions that decide whether it makes sense.
Where this project stands today
I will tell you which layouts are available now, what entry really costs and what the people who live in or let the building think of it — no marketing language.
