A 44-storey Deyaar tower in Dubai Marina with 159 residences, complete. Seven lots in our own stock in a narrow range of AED 4.35–5.45 million (~$1.18M–$1.48M).
Al Seef Tower is a residential skyscraper in Dubai Marina by Deyaar Development, designed by DAR Consult. 44 storeys, 159 residences, complete. The building record confirms a pool, gym, spa and parking.
159 apartments over 44 storeys works out to around four units per level. That's a large cut: spacious layouts, few neighbours per floor. For Marina, where towers with dozens of apartments per level are common, that's a real point of difference.
Our seven listings all fall within AED 4.35–5.45 million — a spread of only a quarter. For a 44-storey tower that's unusual: floor and view normally stretch prices within a building by a factor of two.
That reads as uniformity: apartments of similar area and class, with the difference between them driven by floor rather than format. That's convenient for a buyer — comparison is simple. It's harder for a seller: the only way to stand out among neighbours in the building is price.
The entire range sits above the district median of AED 3.8 million (~$1.03M), which is expected for a building with large layouts.
Dubai Marina in our database is 214 lots, with a median of AED 3.8 million and roughly AED 2625 per square foot (~$715/ft²). The city's second-deepest market: metro, tram, promenade, an established environment.
Forty-four storeys in a dense part of the district works in the view's favour: the upper levels get Marina and the sea, the lower ones get the neighbouring tower twenty metres away. The gap between those two situations matters more for resale price than the difference in finishes, and it has to be checked from the specific apartment.
