Market Insights & Outlook |
||||||||||||
| Week 8 shows a broad cooling versus last week, with declines in both value (-27.9%) and transaction count (-23.7%), suggesting lower throughput, not just fewer large-ticket deals. Off-plan remained the market’s anchor at 64.4% of total value, and activity was highly concentrated: the top three off-plan areas (Trade Center Second, Al Yelayiss 1, Dubai Islands) delivered 30.9% of off-plan value, while the top three ready areas (Business Bay, Burj Khalifa, Dubai Marina) made up 24.7% of ready value. Palm Jumeirah featured in both segments’ top 10, reinforcing continued appetite for prime/coastal demand even during a softer weekly print. |
