Introduction

When someone asks you how much a property is worth, how do you come up with an answer?

To begin with, you'd probably start trawling through listings and historical sales. Then, you'd want to come up with some way to prioritise that data:

• Recent transactions in nearby developments or older transactions in the same development?

• Asking prices of advertised properties or actual prices of sold properties?

• How much do views and renovations really impact the price?

Conclusion: property valuation is hard! At the end of the day, a property is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it, and how we predict this number is too often an art and not a science. Here at YallaValue we're finally changing that.

What is YallaValue?

At the heart of this website is a series of machine learning models that predict property values. Each day, we work with the latest Dubai Land Department data and thoroughly clean it to filter out the noise and outliers. Once this is done, we refresh our models and are able to generate an estimate for each property, along with a confidence level.

The estimates are completely free and always will be. However, they are still just estimates and do not take everything into account that could possibly impact a property's price. That's why we give users the option to "boost" their estimates by purchasing a report.

The reports include an updated estimate based on more data, giving you a much clearer picture of what the property is worth and why. Each report is checked by a licensed valuations company with years of experience in the Dubai property market. And the best thing is, we'll have the report ready for you in a matter of minutes.

What are we trying to achieve?

We want to help make Dubai the most transparent and efficient property market in the world. Estimating a property's value in the 21st century should be as easy as ordering a takeaway or streaming a movie.

Our goal is to give people everything they need in order to make a quick, rational and informed decision when it comes to buying or selling a property.

Our story

Wanting to purchase a property, the founder of YallaValue naturally did what most people do - he combed through listings and spoke to agents. Each agent described their listing with the highest possible praises and usually alluded to it being undervalued - "You'll want to act fast because if you don't, someone else will!"

Verifying their claims took time, especially when looking at various buildings and projects. He wished there was an app that could give instant estimates, so he put together a team and set out to build one.

So, how much is a property in Dubai really worth?
