AED 466.4M— City of Arabia

Dubai's residential property market logged 2,645 sales worth AED 8.56B over the past week, with off-plan homes accounting for 69% of transactions and ready (secondary) property the remaining 31%.

Buyers committed AED 3.26B across 1,814 off-plan deals versus AED 5.30B over 831 ready-home transactions, and the citywide median came in at AED 1,694 per square foot — a useful yardstick when weighing asking prices this week. The week's standout transaction was a AED 466.4M sale at City of Arabia.

On a 30-day price-per-square-foot basis, Bluewaters Island leads at AED 4,955/sqft (-0.5% month-on-month). Prices are firming in Barsha Heights (Tecom), Dubai Marina, Palm Jumeirah, while Palm Jumeirah eased over the month. These shifts help buyers spot where value is holding and where negotiating room may be opening up.

Developers added 5 new off-plan projects to the Dubai pipeline this week, including OR1ON SKY in Jumeirah Village Circle, Oceara Park View Residence in Dubai Islands, Marea Residences in Dubai Islands. Early-release pricing and staged payment plans on new launches like these are a key reason off-plan continues to capture the majority of buyer demand across the emirate.

What this means for buyers & investors

For buyers, an off-plan-led market keeps entry prices and payment plans flexible, and the AED 1,694/sqft median is a fair benchmark for judging value.
