HOW WE WRITE THESE

Sourced, dated, updated.

Every number has a source

Land Department releases, Bayut and Property Finder reports, the portals’ own indices, the press. Each figure links to the page it came from, with its date.

Nothing estimated

Where sources disagree we show both. Where no figure exists we say so instead of guessing — drive times, service charges and school ratings included.

Our own listings, separately

Each guide ends with what we hold in the area, clearly marked as ours. Globex owns and builds The Stars Villas in Ajman and brokers everywhere else under RERA ORN 33521.
