Nothing is under construction in La Mer today, so the stock is what it is: 22 buildings and about 1,477 homes. 17 of them handed over in the last five years, so the newest stock is still settling into the rental market. The figures on this page refresh monthly as new sales and contracts are registered.
The line is the monthly median of every sale and rental contract, smoothed over three months; a month with fewer than ten records sits between its neighbours, and the latest such months are read together. The changes compare 12-month medians: the last 12 months against the 12 before. Source: YallaValue analysis of Dubai Land Department records.

On a typical one-bed at AED 2.3M, that is AED 460,000 down and AED 92,000 in transfer fee.
