Sample: 4-bedroom townhouse | DAMAC Lagoons. The presentation compares 2021–2022 launch-period price inputs with a 2026 value range. It does not provide a matched unit sale record.
| Earlier price range | AED 1.65–1.75 million |
|---|---|
| Earlier range midpoint used | AED 1,700,000 |
| Later source range, 2026 | AED 2.80–3.30 million |
| Later range midpoint used | AED 3,050,000 |
| Difference between midpoints | AED 1,350,000 |
| Increase on earlier midpoint | 79.41% |
| Value multiple | 1.79 times the earlier midpoint |
| Gross rent included in this calculation | None |
A range comparison needs careful wording
These are averages of two source ranges. They illustrate the price movement described in the presentation, rather than establishing the gain realised on a specific townhouse. Condition, plot, cluster, payment status and transaction timing can change the outcome.
Correcting the AUD interpretation
At the same illustrative rate of AUD 0.388 per AED, AED 1.7 million becomes AUD 659,600 and AED 3.05 million becomes AUD 1,183,400. The increase is AUD 523,800, also 79.41%. It is below a doubling, and the constant rate contributes no separate currency gain.
Use completion information at unit level
The presentation says “just handed over” in 2026. That description is not adopted as a current status for the whole community. Check the actual unit and cluster before making handover, rental-readiness or availability statements.

DAMAC Lagoons: growth with clear assumptions
Correction to the original slide
The presentation wording “more than doubled” is inconsistent with 79.4% growth. A doubling requires 100% growth. The constant AED/AUD rate in both columns shows property-price movement only, not an added foreign-exchange gain. No rental income or net investment return has been established.
