Skyloov's 'Broker Connect' drives new era of real-time collaboration in UAE real estate
Dubai, United Arab Emirates: With the UAE's real estate sector experiencing historic levels of activity and competition, broker collaboration has never been more crucial. At the heart of this shift is Broker Connect, a feature first launched by Skyloov in July 2024, which has rapidly reshaped how agents communicate, negotiate, and close deals across the market. In a landscape where speed and agility often determine success, Broker Connect provides brokers with an instant, app-based messaging tool that allows them to coordinate directly with other agents, align on listings, and respond to client needs in real time, all from within the Skyloov platform. The tool was the first of its kind introduced by a UAE property portal, reflecting an industry-wide move toward embedding communication directly into the professional ecosystem, eliminating the fragmentation and delays that can stall deals. 'There's been a clear shift in what real estate professionals need in this market—faster communication, fewer silos, and greater control over the negotiation process,' said Dr. Abdulaziz Albwardi, Chairman of the Board at Skyloov. 'Broker Connect was built to support that evolution. It's designed to make agent collaboration more fluid and intuitive, so brokers can focus on what matters most: delivering results for their clients.' Since its rollout, Broker Connect has seen steady adoption and positive feedback from across the brokerage community, and its influence has extended beyond the platform. Several other portals have launched similar features in recent months, signalling a broader trend: agent-to-agent tech is becoming an industry standard. Industry observers say the emergence of integrated communication tools marks a turning point in proptech adoption, especially in markets like Dubai, where real-time responsiveness can significantly impact deal velocity and client satisfaction. While Broker Connect is currently exclusive to the Skyloov app, its broader significance lies in the conversation it has helped spark: how can technology better support brokers on the ground? As the real estate industry becomes more digital, tools that enhance professional connectivity are increasingly seen as essential infrastructure, not just nice-to-have features.

Dubai's Emerges the Most Searched Area in UAE Real Estate
An analysis of over 149 million property views and 12 million search queries has shown that International City in Dubai is the UAE's most searched-for community. According to data revealed by UAE real estate portal Skyloov, International City was followed by Al Reem Island in Abu Dhabi and Muwaileh in Sharjah. Skyloov used the data generated from its 3.1 million monthly users to provide insights into the most sought-after communities for property seekers in 2025. It highlights the regions where buyers, renters, and investors are focusing their attention. Dubai continues to dominate the market, with 42 per cent of total inquiries. Abu Dhabi followed closely with 36.6 per cent, reflecting the capital's growing appeal for high-end residential living. Skyloov's findings show a balanced demand for both affordable housing and premium investment properties, illustrating the evolving preferences of buyers and renters alike. In Dubai, the most in-demand areas include International City, Meydan, and Jumeirah Village Circle, while Abu Dhabi's top-searched locations are Al Reem Island, Mohammed Bin Zayed City, and Khalifa City. A closer look at buyer and renter behaviour highlights distinct market trends. For renters, affordability remains the primary driver. On the purchasing side, Jumeirah Village Circle, Business Bay, and Yas Island are emerging as investor hotspots, fuelled by high rental yields, strategic locations, and long-term capital appreciation.
