What is the short-term versus long-term outlook for Dubai property?

Short term (2026-27), expect moderation: single-digit or flat growth, selective softness in over-supplied apartments, and a 2027 supply test. Long term, fundamentals look supportive - Dubai's 2033 real-estate strategy targets AED 1 trillion market value and 70% more transactions under the D33 economy plan. Analysts broadly see a mild 2026 correction, then a return to roughly 2-4% annual growth toward 2030.
