September wasn’t about hype. It was about where the money actually moved.
Dubai recorded 10,301 residential transactions worth AED 23.18B in September.
Apartments dominated activity with 8,825 transactions, while villas remained the premium end of the market at an average AED 2,154/sq.ft.
The split between new launches and resale was also telling:
7,144 transactions came from the secondary market versus 3,157 from the primary market.
On the rental side, Dubai recorded 51,326 contracts, with an average annual rent of AED 96,181.
And the highest average rents were concentrated in ultra-prime communities such as Jumeirah Bay Island, Palm Jumeirah, Emirates Hills and Bluewaters Island.
The message is simple: Dubai is still active, but the market is becoming more selective.
The opportunity today is not “buy anything in Dubai.”
It is:
buy the right asset, in the right segment, at the right entry price.
