Dubai sees 95 project launches in Q1 2025, adds 29,000 units
Nearly 95 new projects were launched in Dubai in the first quarter of 2025, which are expected to add 29,000 residential units to the market, according to a report by real estate consultancy firm Cavendish Maxwell. Approximately 9,300 residential units were completed in the first quarter of 2025, with apartments accounting for 79 percent of the total and the remainder comprising villas and townhouses, the report said. This marks the second-highest quarterly completion volume in the past two years, surpassed only by the fourth quarter of 2023. Dubai's housing supply is expected to see substantial growth, with nearly 300,000 units projected to enter the market by 2028. A significant portion of this new supply is anticipated in 2026 and 2027, indicating a potential surge in completions during those years, the report said. Over the rest of 2025, 73,000 units are forecast for delivery. However, actual completions may be impacted by shifting market dynamics, evolving buyer preferences, and potential delays in construction timelines. 'Given these factors, it will be crucial to observe how developers adjust their strategies to manage this increased supply, respond to market demand, and ensure timely delivery,' the consultancy stated.

Dubai home sales surge to record $18.2bln amid population boom
Dubai's property deals reached a record AED 66.8 billion ($18.2 billion) last month, marking a staggering 44% increase over a year ago amid a population boom. One of the major growth drivers, the primary ready segment of the market saw total sales quadrupling to AED17.9 billion in May 2025, while the secondary ready segment logged AED 24 billion in sales, representing a 21% year-over-year growth in value, according to Property Finder. Overall, the value of primary ready and off-plan sales rose by 65% to AED 37 billion, while total secondary sales grew 23% to AED 29 billion, achieving a new record. The latest figures indicate strong sentiment in the market and sustained appetite for Dubai real estate. Property Finder noted that Dubai has recently seen a huge influx of new residents and visitors, a trend that drives strong demand for housing. 'With the remarkable growth in population this year, welcoming nearly 1,000 new residents each day – double last year's daily visitor arrivals, demand for housing is poised to reach peak levels,' said Cherif Sleiman, Chief Revenue Officer at Property Finder. '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.'

Dubai: Gold prices rise a day ahead of Eid Al Adha
Gold prices slightly rose at the opening of markets in Dubai on Thursday ahead of key US economic data. The Dubai Jewellery Group data showed 24-carat trading at Dh406 per gram on Thursday morning, up from Dh404.5 per gram at the close of the markets on Wednesday. Among the other precious metal variants, 22-carat, 21-carat and 18-carat opened higher at Dh376, Dh360.5 and Dh309 per gram, respectively. Many gold jewellers and analysts expect gold to maintain its appeal as a safe haven and stay above Dh400 per gram in the medium to long term due to strong demand from central banks, geopolitical tensions and tariffs row. Gold jewellers in Dubai are expecting an increase in sales during Eid Al Adha holidays, which will be celebrated in the UAE from Friday to Sunday. Spot gold was trading at $3,367.62 per ounce, down 0.22 per cent amidst ongoing global economic and political uncertainties, while looking ahead to US payroll data for further economic cues. Ole Hansen, head of commodity strategy at Saxo Bank, said technically, gold has now broken above the downtrend from its April 22 record high at $3,500, with that former resistance line now turning into support near $3,325. 'Additional layers of support are seen at $3,280 and the 55-day moving average at $3,223. While we remain cautious about declaring an imminent charge to fresh all-time highs, the macro setup is shifting in favour of precious metals,' said Hansen. 'A potent mix of post-stimulus fiscal drag, tariff-induced supply shocks, waning consumer confidence, a weakening labour market, and deteriorating real spending power may soon warrant a dovish and potentially stronger-than-expected policy pivot from the US Federal Reserve, potentially then sending bullion prices higher towards $4,000,' he added.
