Market Insights:

• Strong Week-on-Week Growth: Total volume climbed nearly AED 1,847 million (+19.8%), while transaction count rose by 460 deals (+10.6%). The acceleration suggests buyer confidence.
• Off-Plan Dominance Continues: Off-plan’s 60.2% market share (versus 39.8% for ready) indicates that developers and early-stage investors remain active. The fact that off-plan flats alone account for nearly 90% of off-plan value shows that apartment launches are the principal growth drivers.
• Ready Segment Resilience: With ready flats contributing 70.2% of the ready total, established communities (e.g., Business Bay, Burj Khalifa, Dubai Marina) remain magnet markets. Business Bay’s AED 696 million in ready sales is the standout performer, reflecting sustained demand for immediately deliverable units.
• Emerging Area Momentum: In off-plan, Jumeirah Second and Jumeirah First lead, showing strong uptake in premium family communities.
• Comparative Dynamics vs. Last Week:
  • Last week’s total of AED 9,316 million jumped to AED 11,163 million, a sign that pent-up demand is materializing.
  • Transaction count also increased materially, underscoring broader market participation rather than a handful of large trophy trades.
