    Dubai's residential property market logged 2,774 sales worth AED 8.49B over the past week, with off-plan homes accounting for 68% of transactions and ready (secondary) property the remaining 32%.

    Buyers committed AED 3.34B across 1,897 off-plan deals versus AED 5.15B over 877 ready-home transactions, and the citywide median came in at AED 1,687 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 (-26.3% month-on-month). Prices are firming in La Mer, Palm Jumeirah, while Bluewaters Island, Dubai Marina, Barsha Heights (Tecom) 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 1,687/sqft median is a fair benchmark for judging value. Investors tracking Bluewaters Island should weigh the current trend against achievable rental yields before committing.
