Last year, the market recorded 68,405 sales transactions, with transaction values reaching an unprecedented AED 423.36 billion (USD 115.31 billion) — the highest in the city’s history.

 According to the data, this is 30% higher than the total transaction value and 40% more in transaction volume compared to the previous year.

These impressive results underscore investor confidence and steady demand, solidifying Dubai’s position as a global leader in the real estate sector. 

Reflecting on another year of remarkable growth and transformation, experts highlight what makes Dubai’s real estate market truly exceptional. It’s not just skyscrapers or record-breaking transaction volumes — it’s the vision, resilience, and innovation that define the emirate.

 2024 was a landmark year, and looking ahead to 2025, all market participants continue to collectively create long-term value.

The off-plan property market has become a significant driver of this growth, accounting for 63% of total transactions and showing an impressive 66% year-on-year increase. 

Meanwhile, the secondary market also made a positive contribution to the sector’s development, recording a 14% year-on-year growth, effectively catering to end-users seeking immediate housing options.

The luxury real estate segment also reached new heights. In 2024, the number of transactions involving properties valued at over AED 15 million (USD 4.08 million) rose sharply, with a total of 1,938 transactions in the secondary market, marking a 63% increase compared to the previous year.

The most expensive villa in the secondary market was a mansion priced at AED 240.5 million (USD 65.49 million) on Jumeirah Bay Island, while the priciest apartment was sold for AED 275 million (USD 74.88 million) in The One Palm Jumeirah.

Furthermore, 40 ultra-premium property transactions exceeding AED 100 million (USD 27.23 million) were recorded, further strengthening Dubai’s appeal to affluent individuals seeking a luxurious lifestyle.

Analysts stated that, with the impressive performance in 2024, Dubai’s real estate market is well-prepared for further growth and transformation. They note that, by overcoming upcoming challenges and opportunities, the market remains an attractive destination for investors and homebuyers, offering diverse opportunities in a vibrant and dynamic environment.
