Dubai Real Estate Market Set for a Record-Breaking Summer

Dubai’s real estate market is heading into what could be its busiest summer yet, with transaction volumes forecasted to surpass USD 40 billion between June and August 2025. Recent figures from Elite Merit Real Estate reveal that the market reached AED 142.7 billion (approximately USD 38.9 billion) in Q1 2025, marking a 22% year-on-year growth. This strong momentum is expected to push total transactions to AED 150–160 billion (USD 41–44 billion) this summer, representing a nearly 30% increase compared to last year.



Why Is Dubai’s Property Market Surging This Summer?

There are a few main reasons why the market is so active right now:

  • High Buyer Interest: Many people are looking to buy both off-plan and ready-to-move-in homes, especially in well-located residential buildings across cross key areas, such as Business Bay, Downtown Dubai, Dubai Marina, and Jumeirah Village Circle.
  • More People Moving to Dubai: The city’s population is growing fast, which means more demand for housing and residential buildings, both for living and renting.
  • Attractive Financing: Flexible payment plans, and competitive mortgage rates continue attracting end-users and investors.


If you're considering entering the Dubai real estate market, this could be the time to act.



Is There a Dubai Real Estate Bubble?

With prices rising and transaction volumes climbing, many are asking: Is the city heading toward a Dubai real estate bubble?

Experts believe the market is still strong. Unlike past real estate bubbles, today’s growth is based on real factors like:

  • Clear property rules
  • Big projects supported by the government
  • More investors from other countries
  • High demand for homes


This means the market is growing in a healthy and stable way, not just from short-term hype.



What the Summer Boom Means for Buyers and Investors

This summer is a great time to buy property in Dubai. Apartment prices could increase by 6 to 9%, which is good for buyers who want quick returns. Villas are also a smart choice, with prices expected to rise 7 to 10% because more people want larger homes. If you're interested in off-plan properties, now is a good time. Developers offer better prices, easy payment plans, and early access to the best units.
