All asset classes, including apartments, villas, plots, and commercial properties, have seen consistent year-on-year growth since 2021, according to DXBinteract data. The growth in property values has consistently outpaced transaction numbers, showing strong overall market momentum.
Firas Al Msaddi, CEO of fäm Properties, stated that while apartments continue to dominate, every asset class has seen significant increases in value and volume, demonstrating the depth and resilience of Dubai's real estate market. He noted that this balance between rising prices and growing transaction numbers is encouraging for investors seeking long-term stability.
Over the past five years, apartments led growth with total value rising 451.7 % from AED43.6 billion to AED240.5 billion and transaction volume increasing 339.1 % from 28,100 to 123,400 deals.

The report highlights that this broad-based growth across all property segments reflects both rising demand and confidence among investors. It also suggests that the market is not driven by a single segment but by a balanced growth across apartments, villas, plots, and commercial spaces, supporting the long-term stability and sustainability of Dubai's real estate sector.
