Dubai’s real-estate sector continues to demonstrate remarkable strength, with AED 326 billion in transactions recorded in the first half of 2025—a 39 percent increase compared to 2024. Nearly 95,000 investors contributed to this surge, reflecting sustained confidence in the emirate’s economic trajectory and long-term vision.

According to Badar Rashid AlBlooshi, Chairman of Arabian Gulf Properties, Dubai’s growth is rooted in decades of strategic planning, strong governance, and investments that prioritize stability and sustainability. He noted that the emirate has evolved into a mature global hub for innovation-driven and strategic real-estate investment, rather than speculative activity.

The luxury property segment remains a key contributor to market performance, with more than 1,300 homes valued above AED 10 million sold in Q1 2025. This trend highlights Dubai’s continued appeal among high-net-worth individuals seeking enduring value and quality.

Dubai’s expanding population—now exceeding 3.8 million—has helped create genuine end-user demand, reinforcing the stability of the housing market. This demographic growth aligns with ongoing economic diversification efforts and sustained confidence from both residents and international investors.

AlBlooshi emphasized that developers now face a pivotal moment as the city anticipates 73,000 new residential units this year. He said the focus must shift from merely constructing buildings to delivering high-quality, sustainable, and inclusive living environments. Arabian Gulf Properties continues to conceptualize its developments as integrated ecosystems designed to support long-term resilience.

Dubai’s real-estate sector is poised for continued evolution, driven by leadership, innovation, and an unwavering commitment to trust and sustainability—elements that will shape the emirate’s next chapter of growth.
