How this is built
Project price history uses official residential DLD sales from 2020 through 2026-11-02, grouped by registered project ID where available. PSF is computed as price ÷ (procedure area × 10.7639), with at least three sales required for each annual median.
Developer cost and escrow analytics combine RERA Oqood observations dated 2026-04-23–2026-10-05, retaining each project's source date. Project value is the declared development cost at registration, not a transaction price.
Growth figures are first-year to most-recent-year median PSF, so single-year noise is smoothed. Projects with fewer than 2 years of data are excluded from growth rankings.
