The decision layer
Not a property portal.
A decision layer.
Dubai already has the largest listing databases on earth. What it lacks is the layer that tells you which 3 of 500 units actually warrant your time. Here's exactly how we read a deal.
Illustrative — how the score reasons about two units
Dubai Marina · 2BR
- Asking price 18% below the district median for the same unit type (4+ comps)
- Estimated gross yield 7.6% — top quartile for Marina 2-beds
- Liquid location: strong resale depth, short days-on-market
- Ready unit, complete listing record — low data-confidence risk
Off-plan · outer district
- Asking price 12% above the district median — paying a premium, not a discount
- Estimated yield 4.9% — below the area average
- Long days-on-market — the unit isn't moving at this price
- Off-plan in a thinner district — higher exposure, lower data confidence
Same market. Same listings everyone else sees. The difference is that you instantly know which one deserves a viewing — and why, in four lines, not four hours.
What every score is made of
A weighted blend of six dimensions. The weights are proprietary; every dimension is published. You always know what the number reflects.
01 · Price vs district
How $/sqft compares to the unit's district benchmark.
02 · Location score
Liquidity, demand depth, resale strength.
03 · Rental yield
Estimated gross yield, adjusted for how it's priced.
04 · Growth potential
Location strength, days-on-market, development status.
05 · Risk index
Penalises off-plan exposure, weak districts, thin data.
06 · Source confidence
How complete the underlying listing record is.
Beyond the listing
Building DNA — the canonical read on a tower
A single unit's score is only half the picture. Building DNA decodes the whole tower — five years of DLD transfers, service-charge drift, stack-level price spread, and an honest no-go verdict for three buyer mandates. The artifact we'd hand a family-office analyst before any conversation.
Explore the Building DNA libraryThe score is never for sale. REAISALE is free for buyers — we're paid on the broker side (qualified-lead fees + referral commission from licensed Dubai partners). The methodology is fixed and partners cannot move a ranking. If they could, the number would be worthless — and so would we.
