Despite a small decrease in the number of property transactions (18,339), Dubai’s sales value soared 4.2% MoM to AED 46.47 billion ($12.65 billion) in October. This financial jump signals that high demand, particularly for luxury prime and ultra-prime homes, is driving up average prices. The market’s heavy reliance on off-plan deals (69%), spearheaded by developers like EMAAR and Binghatti, confirms strong long-term investor confidence.
Meanwhile, the rental market is active, registering 48,656 contracts, with nearly half (43%) being new leases. While DLD average rents sit at AED 76.5k (apartments) and AED 272.5k (villas), specific areas like JVT and Nad Al Sheba are seeing the most dynamic rent appreciation. The market is expected to maintain its Q4 momentum, buoyed by population inflow and investor appetite.
