Dubai real estate market shatters records with historic AED66.8 bn of transactions in May 2025, Property Finder reveals

Dubai's real estate market delivered AED66.8 billion in sales transactions across 18,700 deals last month, solidifying the emirate's position as a global real estate powerhouse Primary ready sales reached AED17.9 billion, a 314% increase in value over last year, across 2,400 transactions, clocking up 145% growth. Secondary ready sales also reached a new peak, with 6,078 transactions worth AED24 bn, representing 8% growth in volume and 21% year-over-year growth in value, underscoring strong and sustained demand in the resale market. DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES,June 2025: Property Finder, the leading property portal in the MENA region, has released its market performance highlights for May 2025, highlighting yet another month of record-breaking activity. Dubai's real estate market witnessed AED66.8 billion in sales transactions across 18,700 deals last month, Property Finder's proprietary data reveals. This historic achievement represents a staggering 44% year-over-year surge in transaction value and a solid 6% increase in volume, signalling robust market confidence and sustained investor appetite for Dubai properties. The performance was driven by strong growth in ready transactions, for both primary and secondary segments. Primary ready sales more than quadrupled compared to May 2024, reaching AED17.9 billion. This represented a 314% increase in value across 2,400 transactions and a 145% growth. Secondary ready sales also reached a new peak, with 6,078 transactions worth AED24 billion, representing 8% and 21% year-over-year growth in volume and value, respectively, underscoring strong and sustained demand in the resale market. Key data highlights: Primary market continues its dominance: Overall, primary ready and off-plan sales skyrocketed, rising by 65% year-over-year to reach AED 37 billion in May 2025. Secondary market shows resilience: Overall, the secondary sales market set a new record in May 2025, with AED 29 billion in transaction value and 8,471 transactions, up 23% and 15% year-over-year, respectively. Strategic investment hotspots: Business Bay emerged as a premium investment magnet, capturing 5% of total primary transaction value despite representing only 3% of volume, indicating high-value, sophisticated investment activity. Al Barsha demonstrated broad market appeal, accounting for 2% of total value while commanding 5% of transaction volume, showcasing strong demand across price points. A notable AED 1.5 billion land transaction in Palm Deira further underscored institutional confidence in Dubai's long-term growth trajectory, bolstered by strong resale activity in key communities such as Business Bay, Al Barsha, and Wadi Al Safa 3. Consumer behaviour trends: Consumer preferences have stayed steady for the past one year, with apartments dominating demand from home seekers, representing 78% of rental searches and 60% of buyer interest. While studios attracted 21% of rental searches and only 15% of purchase interest, one-bedroom units commanded 35% of purchase searches and 38% of rental searches. This imbalance could potentially suggest that while studios are more attractive for budget-conscious renters, buyers tend to prioritise larger units, due to perceived long-term value, livability, or investment potential. Cherif Sleiman, Chief Revenue Officer at Property Finder, said, 'Just when we thought April was Dubai's most significant month in terms of transaction value at AED62.1 bn, May eclipsed this with AED66.8 billion in transaction value. This underscores the sustainability of the trends driving current growth. Dubai continues to lead real estate innovation by example, as evidenced by the recent launch of the region's first licensed tokenized property investment platform by Dubai Land Department. With the remarkable growth in population this year, welcoming nearly 1,000 new residents each day – double of last year's daily visitor arrivals, demand for housing is poised to reach peak levels. Against this backdrop, the real estate market is enjoying positive momentum, fuelled by digital transformation, international investor appetite, and a surge in demand for premium living. Real estate leaders who participated in Property Finder's recent roundtable are confident of transaction activity picking up throughout 2025, buoyed by unprecedented interest from international investors, alongside a strong off-plan performance and vibrant luxury resale activity. These trends speak to the city's enduring appeal and resilience, even amid global uncertainty. As Dubai shapes the future of real estate, Property Finder remains committed to empowering buyers and investors with the insights they need to move with confidence.'

Al-Mashat Holds Bilateral Discussion with OECD Secretary General during Visit to Paris

SEENEWS Press Release Minister of Planning, Economic Development, and International Cooperation Holds Bilateral Discussion with Secretary General of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) During Her Visit to Paris * 'Al-Mashat': The joint relations with the OECD enhance evidence-based policymaking and institutional reform to drive development efforts. •⁠ ⁠Egypt's chairmanship of the MENA Governance and Competitiveness for Development Initiative is an opportunity to enhance regional dialogue and exchange experiences. •⁠ ⁠We look forward to developing the Country Program to provide more tools and operational plans that strengthen development efforts. •⁠ ⁠OECD Secretary-General: Egypt's OECD country program is a step towards formal membership. •⁠ ⁠OECD Deputy Secretary-General praises Egypt's experience in enhancing private sector access to development financing. H.E. Dr. Rania Al-Mashat, Minister of Planning, Economic Development, and International Cooperation, held a bilateral meeting with Mr. Mathias Cormann, Secretary-General of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), to discuss ways to strengthen cooperation between the two sides, as part of the OECD Ministerial Council Meetings in Paris, which are being held this year under the theme: 'Leading the Way towards Resilient, Inclusive, and Sustainable Prosperity through Rules-Based Trade, Investment and Innovation'. During the meeting, H.E. Dr. Rania Al-Mashat affirmed deep appreciation for the strong and evolving relationship with the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), whether through the bilateral cooperation program between Egypt and the OECD, or through the OECD's MENA Initiative on Governance and Competitiveness for Development, noting that this cooperation reflects a shared commitment by both sides to support evidence-based policymaking, enhance institutional reform, and advance the sustainable development agenda. H.E. pointed to Egypt's co-chairmanship of the OECD MENA Initiative on Governance and Competitiveness for Development. This new mandate provides a unique opportunity for active participation in regional dialogue, strengthening mutual learning mechanisms, and exchange experiences based on real-life reform applications. Al-Mashat praised the continued constructive cooperation within the framework of Egypt-OECD Country Program, which has been extended through 2025. The program is a key pillar of the joint corporation framework, serving as a vital tool for integrating international expertise into Egypt's national development strategy, particularly 'Egypt Vision 2030' and the National Structural Reform Program. The program includes 35 projects distributed across five main pillars, designed through a broad participatory process, reflecting Egypt's commitment to ownership of reforms and policy coherence. H.E. explained that the program witnesses coordination and collaboration with various relevant parties in Egypt to implement it, expressing her aspiration to further develop cooperation within the framework of the Country Program beyond the stage of issuing recommendations, toward providing tools and actionable plans that can reflect on development efforts in a more impactful manner, noting that the program strengthens partnership with the OECD and is an effective step towards Egypt's accession as a member country of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. For his part, the OECD Secretary-General pointed to the OECD's openness policy toward admitting more member countries, explaining that the Country Program with Egypt is an important step for Egypt to become the first Arab and African country to join the OECD. In the same context, H.E. Dr. Rania Al-Mashat met with Ms. Mary Beth Goodman, OECD Deputy Secretary-General, where the meeting addressed the Organization's preparations to finalize the new development strategy. Ms. Goodman praised Egypt's effective contribution in providing feedback on the strategy, emphasizing that it is prepared through a participatory framework to develop solutions to development challenges, especially in light of the efforts of many countries to reduce development funding, which underscores the need for emerging economies to strengthen their domestic resource mobilization. H.E. Dr. Al-Mashat emphasized that Egypt has a pioneering experience in leveraging development financing for the private sector, which has become the main beneficiary of such financing, rather than the government. The Deputy Secretary-General praised this experience and stressed the importance of highlighting it so that other OECD member countries can benefit from it. H.E. Dr. Al-Mashat also met with Mr. Andreas Schaal, Director for OECD Global Relations and Co-operation. The meeting addressed the future of joint relations between the two sides, the general framework for countries to become members of the OECD, the mechanisms for evaluating the OECD Country Program applied in member states, and how to benefit from these experiences. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan
