Methodology

The Project Launch Tracker is compiled from verified multi-source data, including regulator records, developer disclosures, and brokerage networks. It captures residential projects at launch based on confirmed developer announcements. Each project is validated for status, pricing, unit mix, and timing prior to inclusion. Units reflect announced inventory at launch, while projects represent distinct developments. Pricing is expressed in AED per sq.ft, applied uniformly across all unit types and locations to enable direct comparison. Projects are classified into five fixed price segments: Affordable, Mid- Market, Upper-Mid, Luxury, and Ultra-Luxury, using thresholds consistent across all reporting periods. Supply is analysed across three dimensions: Scale (units launched and project count), Structure (price positioning), and Distribution (developer concentration and community allocation).
