Dubai Diligence MCP Server

Ask ChatGPT or Claude about the Dubai property market and get answers from the Dubai Land Department registered record, not from asking prices and not from a guess.

No API key. No sign-up. No installation.

https://dubaidiligence.com/api/mcp

Add that URL as a remote MCP server in any MCP-compatible client.

Why this exists

Every price you see advertised in Dubai is an asking price. The portals' inventory comes from agents, so they structurally cannot tell you what a home actually sold for. The Land Department publishes what it sold for, but its own portal puts a CAPTCHA on every query and offers no bulk download.

This server puts the registered record one question away.

The split nobody gives you free

74% of registered Dubai home sales are off-plan. So the single blended median that every data source publishes is mostly an off-plan price wearing a neutral label.

Palm Jumeirah, last 12 months of registered sales:

A buyer of a ready apartment is shown a figure 31% above their market. A buyer off-plan is shown one far below theirs. The same number is wrong for both of them, in opposite directions.

dubai_price_split returns both sides, free and without a subscription. PropertyIndex carries an "Off-plan : ready" ratio behind its Pro tier at AED 500 a month; this gives you the actual price on each side instead of the ratio, and costs nothing.

Tools

Read only. There is no tool here that writes anything.

Setup

Claude Desktop / Claude.ai — add a custom connector with the URL above.

Cline, Cursor, Windsurf and most clients — add to your MCP settings:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dubai-diligence": {
      "url": "https://dubaidiligence.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Anything else — it is plain JSON-RPC 2.0 over HTTP POST, protocol version 2025-06-18, and it negotiates older versions. Try it with curl:

curl -s -X POST https://dubaidiligence.com/api/mcp \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'

What the numbers mean

• Homes only. Land, whole buildings, offices, shops and hotel inventory are excluded, because somebody asking about a community is asking about homes. They are real markets with real prices; they are simply not the market the question is about.
• Sales only. Mortgage and gift registrations are excluded. A mortgage records a loan, not a price, and a gift is often nominal. They are about one registration in four.
• Gross yield, from registered Ejari rent contracts against registered sale prices. Service charges, agency fees and vacancy are not deducted.
• As registered. These are facts from the public record, not an assessment or a valuation by Dubai Diligence. We do not publish forecasts, because a forecast is an opinion and the whole claim of this dataset is that it only contains what actually happened.
