Category Off-Plan (AED millions) Ready (AED millions) Flat 5,146.8 2,332.6 Villa 908.4 711.2 Hotel Apt. & Rooms 21.0 224.6 Commercials 265.1 339.8 Total 6,341.3 3,608.2 Off-Plan Market Performance Total Value: AED 6.34 billion (63.7% of Weekly Total) Category Value (AED billions) % of Off-Plan Flat 5.15 81.2% Villa 0.91 14.3% Hotel Apt. & Rooms 0.02 0.3% Commercials 0.27 4.2% Off-plan activity this week was overwhelmingly driven by flats, which made up just over four-fifths of all off-plan value. Villas were the clear second pillar at 14%, reflecting continued appetite for villa communities. Top Performing Off-Plan Areas Area Value (AED millions) Palm Deira 448.4 Nad Al Shiba First 384.0 Business Bay 356.1 Al Yufrah 1 275.8 Jumeirah Village Circle 267.3 Palm Deira and Nad Al Shiba First together cleared more than AED 800 million in off-plan value, signalling intense absorption in large-scale masterplan launches. JVC continue to act as volume engines for investors targeting mid-ticket stock with rental yield stories. Ready Market Performance Total Value: AED 3.61 billion (36.3% of Weekly Total) Category Value (AED billion) % of Ready Flat 2.33 64.6% Villa 0.71 19.7% Hotel Apt. & Rooms 0.22 6.2% Commercials 0.34 9.4% Ready trading is still led by flats, which drove nearly two-thirds of all ready value this week. Villas remain strong at just under 20% of total ready activity, showing continued owner-occupier and upgrader demand for established villa communities. Top Performing Ready Areas Area Value (AED millions) Business Bay 452.5 Burj Khalifa 295.5 Jumeirah Lakes Towers 191.3 Jumeirah Village Circle 188.3 Dubai Creek Harbour 170.7 The ready market remains highly concentrated in core high-rise investment districts. Business Bay, Downtown (Burj Khalifa), and JLT alone accounted for well over AED 900 million in secondary activity, reinforcing central Dubai towers as highly liquid assets. JVC’s presence in both off-plan and ready tables shows it is a dual-market hub for investors: pre-handover and immediate rental stock. On the micro level Below is the sales distribution based on the number of bedrooms Weekly Comparison Metric Last Week This Week Change Total Volume AED 10.00 bn AED 9.95 bn −0.5% Number of Transactions 4,882 5,225 +7.0% Market Insights & Outlook This was a liquidity-driven week. Headline value was slightly lower, but total deals were higher. That usually means the market is not slowing, it’s broadening. Activity is spreading into mid-ticket and yield-led communities rather than only chasing ultra-prime. Off-Plan is still the main engine at 63.7% of total value, with flats alone representing 81.2% of that segment. Ready deals remain dominated by high-rise apartments in Business Bay, Downtown, JLT, Marina, and JVC, confirming that investors are still comfortable recycling capital into dense rental stock.

Hospitality and commercial remained limited. Ready Market Performance Total Value: AED 627,335,555 In the ready market, demand focused on lived-in apartments, but ready villas still accounted for over one-fifth of daily value. On The Micro Level Market Insights & Outlook The market is still being driven by off plan, which captured almost 69% of all value. That tells you investors are still comfortable with future delivery risk. Ready villas and hotel-style assets remain active, indicating end-user and yield-driven demand alongside speculative off-plan buying. Data Source: Dubai Land Department

Off-plan contributed AED 6.15 billion (61.5%), while Ready accounted for AED 3.85 billion (38.5%). Category Off-Plan (AED millions) Ready (AED millions) Flat 5,085.2 2,716.2 Villa 778.0 745.8 Hotel Apt. & Rooms 16.1 108.5 Commercials 269.0 283.5 Total 6,148.2 3,854.0 Off-Plan Market Performance Total Value: AED 6.15bn Share of Weekly Total: 61.5% Category Value (AED bn) % of Off-Plan Flat 5.09 82.7% Villa 0.78 12.7% Hotel Apt. & Rooms 0.02 0.3% Commercials 0.27 4.4% Off-plan sales were led by apartments, which are still the main liquidity engine. Villas remained active at scale, while hotel units and commercial deals stayed niche. Top Performing Off-Plan Areas (by value traded) Area Value (AED millions) Business Bay 472.6 Palm Deira 315.4 Jumeirah Village Circle 295.8 Al Thanyah Fifth 292.0 DIP Second 280.5 Ready Market Performance Total Value: AED 3.85bn Share of Weekly Total: 38.5% Category Value (AED bn) % of Ready Flat 2.72 70.5% Villa 0.75 19.4% Hotel Apt. & Rooms 0.11 2.8% Commercials 0.28 7.4% The ready/secondary market is still apartment-led.

Top Performing Ready Areas (by value traded) Area Value (AED millions) Business Bay 570.6 Burj Khalifa 448.5 Jumeirah Village Circle 319.1 Palm Jumeirah 240.5 Dubai Marina 179.0 On the micro level Below is the sales distribution based on the number of bedrooms Weekly Comparison Metric Last Week This Week Change Total Volume AED 9.74 bn AED 10.00 bn +2.7% Number of Transactions 4,760 4,882 +2.6% Market Insights & Outlook Liquidity edged higher this week: total value is up 2.7% and deal count rose 2.6%. The increase was almost entirely driven by off-plan, which jumped 4.7% week-on-week and now represents just over 61% of all AED traded. Ready volumes were broadly stable (down 0.3%), which suggests no slowdown in the secondary market, just that off plan pulled more capital. High-ticket resales in Business Bay, Burj Khalifa and Palm Jumeirah continue to clear, supporting pricing at the top end. Takeaway: buyers are still paying upfront for future product and still paying premiums for delivered trophy stock. The market is not rotating out of one segment into the other, it is funding at the same time. Data Source: Dubai Land Department
