Not included in the figures above. A plot and an office are different markets with different buyers — blending them drops the commercial median from 3,302 to 1,919 AED/sqft and the number stops meaning anything.

Commercial against residential
—
An office at 1,900 AED/sqft is neither cheap nor expensive on its own. It only becomes a number you can act on when you put it next to the apartment across the street, and next to what the residential market did three months ago. That comparison is the whole product.
Price of a commercial foot vs a residential foot

Does residential turn first?
Correlation between monthly residential deal count and commercial deal count, shifted by 0–3 months. A stronger figure at a lag means housing moved first and commercial followed.
How commercial is this district, really
Share of registered sales value that is commercial. A district can log a handful of office deals and still be a housing estate — or run the other way.
