the answer is that the market is no longer pricing the area based only on what Al Ghadeer looks like today.

It’s increasingly being priced based on what the entire Abu Dhabi, Dubai corridor could look like over the next 10–15 years, keep in mind that al Ghadeer 1 was launched long time ago.

A few major things happening around the area:

Al Maktoum International Airport expansion (AED 128B project)
Dubai South growth and employment expansion
Etihad Rail passenger network
Palm Jebel Ali
Expo City Dubai
Al Jurf and Ghantot coastal developments

Major infrastructure corridors means change in nearby real estate demand over time, so that means.

Better connectivity usually means:

More population movement, Higher rental demand, More businesses, Stronger resale activity Better infrastructure and services.

That doesnt automatically mean prices only go up of course, but it explains why developers are launching newer phases at higher prices even when older ready units exist nearby.

The buyers are also different.

Ready unit buyers usually focus on:
Immediate rental income
Immediate move in
Lower risk

Off plan buyers usually focus on:
Long term appreciation
Flexible payment plan
Future infrastructure growth for the area
Newer layouts and positioning

I think many people are underestimating how much this entire corridor could change over the next decade.

Thats why we will start seeing in the near future expanding to other areas across Abu Dhabi, Yas is almost full, Saadiyat as well, Reem still got plots but I think the prices per SQFT in the near future will go higher due to Yas and Saadiyat being full.

Always open to respectful discussion and different perspectives.
