Strong Demand and Smart Investments Will Boost UAE Real Estate in 2025
The UAE real estate market is set to grow even stronger in 2025. According to a recent report by JLL, smart investments and limited supply will continue to drive demand across the country. At DreamDwell Properties, we’re excited to help our clients make the most of these opportunities.
Key drivers of growth
- Limited Supply: With fewer properties available, demand is high. This will keep prices strong and encourage developers to launch more projects.
- Infrastructure Development: New roads, public transport, and other major projects are making different parts of the UAE more attractive for investment.
- Alternative Assets: Growth in areas like last-mile logistics and data centers is also boosting the market.
- Non-Freehold Conversions: The government is allowing more properties to become available for purchase in areas that were previously restricted. This is opening up new options for buyers and investors.
Dubai leads the way
Dubai’s real estate market ended 2024 on a high note. Sales jumped 32% from the previous year, reaching AED 367 billion. Off-plan properties made up most of these sales, showing that buyers are confident in the market’s future.
A record 157,000 new units were launched in 2024 — the highest ever in one year. This shows strong confidence from developers as well.
Rent growth steady
Rental prices in Dubai rose by 15.7% in 2024, but the pace of increase has slowed. Experts believe rental rates may start to stabilize in 2025.
Construction leads the region
Even though construction slowed in other parts of the Middle East and Africa, the UAE was the top performer. In 2024, it accounted for 47% of all major construction projects in the region, valued at $34 billion.
Looking ahead
At DreamDwell Properties, we believe 2025 will be another great year for real estate in the UAE. Strong demand, large investments, and ongoing development will create exciting opportunities for homeowners and investors alike.
