What are Dubai's property transaction volumes like in 2026?
Activity remains historically high but is normalising. Q1 2026 saw nearly 48,000 residential deals worth about AED 176.7 billion, up roughly 23% in value year-on-year, and January alone set a record AED 72.4 billion month led by a 90% jump in off-plan sales. Volumes are up modestly year-on-year but eased from 2025's record pace.
Figures here are indicative as of July 2026 and set by third parties (government, banks, developers) — confirm the current amount before relying on it.
