Dubai's property market posts an all-time high of Dh62.1 billion in April 2025, driven by luxury off-plan sales in Palm Jebel Ali and The Oasis.
In April 2025, Dubai's real estate market witnessed a historic milestone with total transaction values reaching Dh62.1 billion—a staggering 94% increase year-on-year. This surge highlights a robust investor appetite, particularly for premium off-plan developments that offer long-term value and brand-backed assurance.
Both projects, while comprising less than 6% of overall off-plan volume, captured over 30% of value, affirming the market's shift toward high-end, branded, and strategically located developments.
April saw Dh34.2 billion in direct-from-developer sales, up 124% from April 2024. This trend reflects strong confidence in Dubai's development pipeline, particularly in areas with advanced connectivity, lifestyle integration, and ESG-aligned design principles.
A Dh1.45 billion land acquisition at DMCC-EZ2 for Sobha Central in Jebel Ali adds further momentum. This master-planned commercial and residential hub is set to integrate smart city technology, offering a strong case for long-term capital appreciation.
Dubai’s April performance underlines a strategic pivot toward ultra-premium, future-ready real estate. Investors seeking growth, yield, and resilience are increasingly aligning with developments that combine branded architecture, sustainability, and proximity to evolving urban corridors like Expo City Dubai and Jebel Ali.
With branded coastal projects and smart urban nodes gaining traction, investors should monitor upcoming allocations in Palm Jebel Ali, The Oasis, and Jebel Ali’s innovation corridor. These zones are poised to benefit from integrated transport networks, AI-powered infrastructure, and strong tourism spillovers—securing both lifestyle and ROI advantages.
