Off-Plan Market Performance

Total Value: AED 1.88 billion
  • Flats: AED 699.1 million (37.3%)
  • Villas: AED 92.3 million (4.9%)
  • Hotel Apts & Rooms: AED 22.5 million (1.2%)
  • Commercial: AED 1.06 billion (56.6%)
Off-plan activity was heavily shaped by the commercial segment, specifically Lumena by Omniyat, which contributed AED 1.02 billion to the off-plan office sales which accounted for more than half of all off-plan value. Flats remained the second-largest contributor, while villas and hotel apartments played a smaller role in the day’s total.

Ready Market Performance

Total Value: AED 515.8 million
  • Flats: AED 354.6 million (68.8%)
  • Villas: AED 104.5 million (20.3%)
  • Hotel Apts & Rooms: AED 14.5 million (2.8%)
  • Commercial: AED 42.1 million (8.2%)
Ready-market activity was led by flats, which made up more than two-thirds of ready transaction value. Villas provided a meaningful secondary contribution, while commercial and hotel apartment transactions remained comparatively limited.

On The Micro Level

Market Insights & Outlook

The day’s activity shows a market still strongly tilted toward off-plan transactions, with off-plan accounting for nearly four-fifths of total value. However, the composition was not typical residential-led growth. Commercial off-plan transactions drove the bulk of activity, suggesting that investor appetite remains active beyond standard residential assets.
Ready demand remained more balanced and residential-focused, led by flats and supported by villas. Overall, the figures point to a liquid market, but one where daily performance can be significantly influenced by large-ticket off-plan commercial deals.
