Pricing Analysis
vs Dubai Marina Area Average
The Dubai Marina area average for H1 2026 was AED 2,058 per sqft, and the 12-month median was AED 2,160 per sqft. At AED 1,432 per sqft, this listing is approximately 30% to 34% below these benchmarks. However, the area average is heavily influenced by premium towers (Marina Gate, Cayan, Damac Heights, Princess Tower) that trade at AED 2,000 to AED 3,000+ per sqft. Escan Marina Tower is a mid-tier building, and its pricing reflects that market segment.
DLD Transactions (2BR, Escan Marina Tower)
One 2BR DLD transaction found: AED 1,550,000 for 1,128 sqft (February 2026, AED 1,374 per sqft). At AED 1,432 per sqft, the asking price is 4% above the DLD transaction rate. The listed unit is 59 sqft larger, which partially explains the higher total price.

- AED 1,900,000 for 1,127 sqft (high floor, furnished, AED 1,686 per sqft)
At AED 1,700,000, this listing sits in the mid-range of active asking prices. A cheaper unit at AED 1,450,000 exists (2nd floor, unfurnished), and a comparable unit at AED 1,650,000 (high floor, furnished, marina view) offers arguably better value. At least 9 active 2BR listings exist in this building, indicating significant supply.
Missing Information
The agent brief is sparse. Floor, view and furnishing status are not disclosed. In this building, these factors create a price spread of approximately AED 450,000 between the cheapest 2BR (AED 1,450,000, 2nd floor, unfurnished) and the most expensive (AED 1,900,000, high floor, furnished). Without knowing these attributes, the competitiveness of AED 1,700,000 cannot be fully assessed. Buyers should request the floor level, view direction, furnishing status and any rental history before proceeding.
