Market Insights & Outlook

Overall activity shows continued off-plan dominance driven by apartment sales, while the ready market reflects broader demand across villas and income-linked assets (commercial/hotel). If this mix persists, expect developers to keep prioritising apartment-led launches, with ready communities supporting steadier, diversified liquidity.
