Dubai’s real estate market showed broad-based strength in 2025, with strong sales recorded across both luxury and affordable segments, underlining sustained confidence among investors and end users, according to newly released market data.
Transactions for properties priced above Dh15 million as well as those below Dh2 million posted solid volumes and values during the year, reflecting balanced demand across the market rather than concentration in a single segment.
An analysis by fäm Properties shows that Emaar maintained its position as the city’s leading developer by sales value, project deliveries and new launches. Data from DXBinteract indicates that Emaar recorded sales worth Dh65.8 billion in 2025, followed by Damac Properties with Dh35.9 billion and Binghatti with Dh26.0 billion.
Emaar also ended the year with the highest number of homes under construction at 51,032 units. During 2025, the developer delivered 27 projects comprising 7,318 units and launched 54 new projects.
Binghatti recorded a standout year by climbing four places to become Dubai’s top developer by total transaction volume. The company completed 17,061 property sales, ahead of Damac with 15,393 transactions and Emaar with 13,149.
In the luxury segment, properties priced above Dh15 million were led by Nakheel, which achieved Dh16.9 billion in sales from 672 transactions. Emaar followed closely with Dh15.7 billion from 680 deals, while Meraas recorded Dh9.5 billion across 289 luxury transactions.
The affordable housing segment also remained active, with Binghatti leading sales below Dh2 million, generating Dh16.2 billion from 14,627 transactions. Damac followed with Dh8.4 billion in sales from 6,828 deals.
Commenting on the data, Firas Al Msaddi, CEO of fäm Properties, said the strong performance across both high-end and affordable segments highlights the depth and resilience of Dubai’s property market. He added that steady demand from both investors and end users points to a healthy and diversified real estate environment.
