What are apartments in Orion Building selling for right now?

That uses the same trailing year as the rent and yield figures, requires at least five sales, and excludes off-plan. Floor, view and condition move a specific unit's price around it.
Have prices in Orion Building risen or fallen?
Median price per square foot moved +7.5% over the last 12 months against the 12 before it, on 9 sales with a price per square foot. On a sample this size, read the direction rather than the exact figure.
How does Orion Building compare with Arjan?

Gross yield divides the median annual rent from new registered Ejari contracts starting in the last 12 months by the median price of the building's registered sales in the last 12 months (at least 3 sales) for the same bedroom type, with ready and off-plan sales counted alike.
