- The median registered sale price is AED 3.35M (2,764 AED/sqft), from 3 Dubai Land Department sales in the last 12 months. This is a price paid, not an asking price.
- How does La Rive - Building 1 compare with La Mer?

- The median new annual rent is AED 185,000, from 32 Ejari contracts in the trailing 12 months to 2026-10-12. These contracts cover the project, not this tower alone. Compare the same bedroom type; floor, view and condition can change an individual rent.
- Have registered rents in La Rive - Building 1 risen or fallen?
- The median new annual rent changed -7.5% in the trailing 12 months against the previous 12, using 32 new Ejari contracts in the current period to 2026-10-12. Different homes can appear in the two periods; this is not the change on an individual tenancy.
