The desk · updated 7 October 2026

Everything moving through the desk.

What we are holding and what buyers are asking for — in one place, with this week's additions first. Opportunities are verified against the developer's statement of account and registered DLD transactions before they are shown. Nothing here identifies a party, and full detail is released to registered buyers through their appointed agent only.

Off-market stock held directly with owners and their agents — not on any portal. 58 opportunities currently open for introduction, drawn from the desk book of 224 registered deals and grouped by area — new this week at the top.

New this week

Added to the desk in the last seven days. Everything new carries a gold New tag.

ATH-01 New

Urgent sale — ask for the unit

3-bedroom townhouse — Athlon by Aldar, Dubailand

AED 3,050,000 · AED 167,000 under the 2024 purchase price · handover 2028

TypeThree-bedroom townhouse in Aldar and Dubai Holding's Athlon, the active-living community in Dubailand
Built-up / plot2,300 sq ft built-up on a 2,000 sq ft plot — larger than the 1,700–1,800 sq ft plots most Athlon townhouses sit on
Asking priceAED 3,050,000 · c. AED 1,326 per sq ft built-up
What the owner paidAED 3,217,000 from Aldar in 2024 — the asking price is 5.2% below it, a real loss on the purchase, not a sticker discount
The market nowThree-bedroom Athlon townhouses of the same size and plot are listed at AED 3.05M to 3.15M on the portals this week, with the typical three-bedroom ask around 3.3M (Property Finder, 6 October 2026)
PlanThe balance of Aldar's payment plan runs to handover in 2028; the paid-in position and unit are released to registered buyers

The owner needs out before handover and is taking a loss on a 2024 purchase to do it — the bigger-than-standard plot at the bottom of the current asking range, which is exactly the shape of deal this desk exists for.

Talay at Marsa Al Saadiyat — Aldar render

Launch radar · checked this week

New launches — priority broker access

We hold direct relationships with the agents and developers behind priority launch allocations in Dubai and Abu Dhabi — first access before public release.

Every current launch — what is open, what is at registration stage and what has already sold out — is tracked on the launch radar, checked against developer announcements rather than repeated from portals.

Open the launch radar →

This is a selection. We hold far more off-market — exact unit, price, statement of account and evidence are released to registered buyers through their appointed agent, on agreed terms. Tell us the brief and we'll match it.

DealDeed acts as an introducer. All transactions are conducted by RERA-licensed agents representing each party.

Live briefs from registered, cash-verified buyers. Agents: if you hold matching stock, on- or off-market, submit it. Introduction terms are agreed in writing before any parties are connected.

R-009 New

Live

Ready 3-bed apartment at or below original price — Dubai Marina, Emaar Beachfront or Palm Jumeirah

Completed, ready stock only. Three bedrooms preferred; a four-bedroom is considered if that is what it takes to get the layout. At least two of the bedrooms must be en-suite. The asking price must be at or below what the current owner paid — this buyer is paying for a seller's reason to sell, not a view. High-net-worth, with room above the band where the price and the value are properly justified. To submit: asking price, original purchase price, size, a floor plan showing the two en-suite bedrooms, and occupancy status.
