EYWA Business Bay — five investor questions

Canal-side EYWA unit sales, answered as questions. Benchmarked against Binghatti Skyhall/Skyrise + Business Bay canal peers. Property Finder sales reconciled to DLD.

Data policy: DLD wins for official price/date when matched; PF wins for unit/floor (area from PF). Core EYWA excludes land plot 57 (2 transfers) and unit 274 (37,282 sqft plot-sized record, no beds, no DLD match). Units 503 / 604 are related-only (Eywa Way of Water / DLD #3890): shown flagged, not in core KPIs. Peer set: canal-strip comps only — Viewz JLT and St Regis Downtown are out of area — not in peer set.

Q1. What did this unit sell for, when, and on which floor?

Every EYWA row with policy flag. Latest core sale is called out first; DLD price/date when matched.

Q2. Is that dear or cheap vs similar sales nearby?

Faded bars = related-only units 503/604 (not in core statistics). Red = above peer median, green = below. Peers = Binghatti Skyhall/Skyrise + canal strip only.

Closest to peer: lowest premium

Farthest above peer: highest premium

Core sales with the highest AED/sqft premium over their canal-peer median.

Peer building medians (context)

Q3. How has EYWA AED/sqft moved vs peers over time?

Gold points = EYWA sales. Line = quarterly median of the tightened canal-peer set; band = IQR. Quarters with fewer than 5 peer sales omitted.

Q4. Which comps are fair?

In-peer buildings used for medians vs buildings labelled out of area / not in peer set, with why.

In peer set — used for medians

Canal-side / canal-adjacent Business Bay product. Binghatti Skyhall & Skyrise preferred; remaining are canal-strip peers.

Excluded — not in peer medians

Out of area (wrong district) or older / different product. Still visible in the raw table.

Q5. What’s still off-plan vs ready, and how thin is the sample?

Core EYWA sample size, beds mix, off-plan/ready counts, and a small-n warning.

Canal-side. Waterfront vs inland — AED/sqft, yields, and do they sell faster?

EYWA sits on the Dubai Water Canal. Answers below separate (a) what this extract can measure from canal peers, from (b) Dubai market citations — with honesty where data is thin.
