Market Insights & Outlook
Apartments remained the market’s principal driver, generating a combined AED931.94 million across off-plan and ready properties and representing approximately 75.0% of total transaction value. Land transactions were close to AED 700 million.
The day was particularly characterised by the strength of the off-plan segment, which captured almost two-thirds of total activity. Within that market, the exceptionally high 82.6% contribution from flats points to a highly concentrated demand profile.
The ready market, while smaller overall, showed greater diversification. Villas and commercial properties together contributed 37.5% of ready transaction value, compared with just 15.2% for the same categories in the off-plan segment.
Overall, the day reflected a market firmly led by off-plan apartment activity, complemented by a more diversified ready-property segment and significant separately reported land transactions.
