The real estate sector in the United Arab Emirates continues to attract strong interest from both local and international investors, holding on to its appeal despite the exceptional challenges facing the region.
In a sign that has even gone beyond analysts’ expectations, the market continues to reflect steady confidence. Dubai’s real estate sector, in particular, is maintaining its solid momentum, supported by consistent demand and growing trust among investors. During the fourth week of Ramadan, total real estate transactions in the emirate reached around AED 16.11 billion.
At the same time, developers are continuing to move ahead with their projects, helping keep the market stable and reliable. Dubai Investments, through its real estate arm “Dubai Investments Real Estate,” confirmed that construction work across its projects is progressing according to approved delivery timelines.
The market is also seeing the launch of new projects, further showing the strength of investment activity. National Properties, the real estate arm of National Bonds Corporation, announced a new commercial tower project valued at AED 500 million, adding to the sector’s growing pipeline.
In Abu Dhabi, demand has been especially strong. Ohana Development reported impressive results for its residential project “Manchester City Yas Residences by Ohana,” located along the Yas Canal waterfront, where sales reached AED 6 billion in just 72 hours.
The breakdown of investors in the project also highlights the UAE’s wide appeal. Emirati investors accounted for 35% of buyers, while residents and international investors made up the remaining 65%, reflecting a healthy and diverse investor base.
