Market Insights & Outlook
The day’s performance points to a balanced Dubai property market, with off-plan only slightly ahead of ready properties. Off-plan accounted for 51.2% of total value, while ready assets captured 48.8%, showing that buyer demand remained active across both future supply and completed properties.
Apartments were the clear engine of the market, contributing AED946.9 million across both off-plan and ready transactions. This made flats the dominant property type on 13 July 2026, supported by strong off-plan demand and solid ready-market activity.
The data shows a clear off-plan apartment-led market, with flats carrying almost nine-tenths of the segment’s value. Villas played a secondary role, while hotel and commercial activity remained relatively small.
The ready market was more diversified than the off-plan segment, with villas and commercial properties making a more visible contribution. However, flats still dominated overall activity with more than 75% of the market activity.
