Our RAK Waterfront Pulse: PropertyFinder RAK sale listings (asking prices, deduped sample of 405) — RAK publishes no open transaction registry; this is an asking-price index and says so. Ras Al Khaimah publishes no open transaction registry, so RAK figures are asking prices and are labelled as such; Dubai figures are transactions registered with the Dubai Land Department.
