Dubai just printed a record year: AED 842bn in traded value and 263,835 transactions
But the real story is where the money moved, what buyers actually bought, and which segments are now overheating quietly.
What’s inside the full report
One category of transactions carried the year’s value — and most people aren’t talking about it.
Residential demand shifted in a way that explains why H2 felt different (month-by-month evidence inside).
The market’s “sweet spot” is narrower than most investors think, the report shows exactly where liquidity clusters.
The top areas by transactions and the top areas by value are not the same list (and that gap is the opportunity).
Commercial pricing tells a story most residential buyers are missing, and it’s setting up 2026.
This report shows where buyers actually traded, not where people think they traded, and which areas and ticket sizes still have real exit liquidity.
