Dubai Property Market November 2025 Sets New Deal Record

Dubai, UAE — The Dubai property market November 2025 data from fäm Properties shows 19,019 transactions in November, up 30.9% year-on-year, taking year-to-date deals to 197,263 and surpassing the previous annual record of 180,900 set in 2024.

The same data indicates that total sales value reached AED 624.1 billion by the end of November, after November alone recorded AED 64.7 billion in deals, a 49.6% jump from a year earlier, following October’s earlier break of the 2024 full-year value record of AED 522.1 billion, according to the brokerage’s report based on DXBinteract and Dubai Land Department figures.​

Apartments continued to anchor activity, with 15,905 apartment sales worth AED 32.1 billion in November, a 37.4% year-on-year increase in volume, while villa transactions dipped 6.6% in volume to 2,078 deals, totalling AED 13.2 billion. 

Commercial property sales rose sharply, with AED 2.3 billion in transactions and a 79.7% leap in volumes to 647, while plot sales worth AED 17.1 billion were up 3.6% in volume to 377 deals; across the market, the average price per square foot climbed 16.1% to AED 1,755.​

“What we’re seeing here isn’t momentum, this is the market maturity meeting global demand,” said Firas Al Msaddi, CEO of fäm Properties. “When a market grows this aggressively and stays stable, it’s not speculation, it’s migration plus capital allocation.

“The value run is even stronger than the volume run. We’ve seen a 20% value growth on what was a record year in 2024 with one month of this year still to go. This tells us price per sqft is rising, buyers are deploying more per purchase, and higher-ticket assets are moving.”

According to the company, first sales from developers remained dominant, with 13,374 off-plan transactions in November totalling AED 41.4 billion, compared with 5,645 resale deals valued at AED 23.3 billion, reflecting a pattern seen through 2025 where new launches capture around two-thirds of activity.​

Market context and structural drivers

Independent consultancies echo the view that the Dubai property market November 2025 figures are part of a longer expansion phase rather than an isolated spike. 

Knight Frank’s Q3 2025 residential review reported that average home values were 10% higher than a year earlier, with 56,854 home sales in the quarter and year-to-date residential transactions already exceeding 2024 totals by the end of September. 

A separate analysis by fäm Properties and DXBinteract put Q3 2025 transaction value at around AED 138 billion, up 18% year-on-year, underlining how liquidity has broadened across both luxury and mid-market stock.​

Several research houses, including Savills and other advisory-led platforms, highlight that off-plan sales have accounted for around 70% of residential deals in 2025, fuelled by flexible payment plans and a large launch pipeline, reinforcing why first-sale transactions in November significantly outpaced resales.​

Area performance and asset mix

The Dubai property market November 2025 numbers show that mid-priced, high-density and emerging communities led transaction activity. Jumeirah Village Circle topped the list with 1,426 deals worth about AED 1.9 billion, followed by Wadi Al Safa 5 with 1,133 transactions and AED 1.8 billion in sales, while Business Bay registered 1,055 deals with a higher aggregate value of AED 3.6 billion, reflecting its mix of prime residential and commercial towers. Dubai South, closely linked to Expo City and logistics demand, saw 903 transactions worth AED 2.1 billion, and Mina Rashid recorded 899 deals totalling AED 3.1 billion as waterfront projects continued to gain traction.​

At the top end of the market, the highest-priced home sold in November was a luxury apartment at Jumeirah Residences Asora Bay in Jumeirah First, which fetched AED 203 million, while the most expensive villa changed hands on Palm Jumeirah for AED 110 million, underscoring ongoing strength in ultra-prime stock that Knight Frank says remains the world’s busiest market for homes over USD 10 million. 

However, the broader activity profile skewed toward mid-ticket assets: properties priced AED 1–2 million accounted for roughly 37.03% of November sales, 24.85% of deals were below AED 1 million, 16.66% in the AED 2–3 million band, 12.79% in the AED 3–5 million range, and 8.67% above AED 5 million, pointing to sustained demand from end-users and yield-focused investors seeking attainable price points.​

Best-selling projects and pricing signals

Project-level data for the Dubai property market November 2025 highlight strong absorption in new apartment launches aligned with the AED 1–2 million and sub-AED 1 million brackets. Among first-sale apartments, Binghatti Flare led in volume with 369 transactions worth AED 470 million at a median price of AED 1.3 million, followed by DAMAC Riverside with 229 deals totalling AED 306.1 million and a AED 1.2 million median, and Sobha Solis with 205 sales valued at AED 261.1 million and a AED 1.1 million median price; Chelsea Residences by DAMAC and Azizi Mirage 1 also ranked among the top five, the latter at a median AED 505,000 that caters to budget-conscious buyers.​​

In the villa segment, first-sale activity ranged from community townhouses to higher-end estates: Grand Polo – Selvara 2 recorded 66 villa sales worth AED 438.9 million at a median AED 6.6 million, Dubai Investment Park Second logged 62 transactions at a median AED 2.8 million, and Nad Al Sheba First saw 56 sales worth AED 704.1 million with a median of AED 13.9 million, indicating healthy depth in the upper mid-market. Bay Villas – Dubai Islands and Reportage Village 1 rounded out the top five, with median prices of AED 7.1 million and AED 1.4 million respectively, illustrating how developers are targeting a range of budgets within master-planned communities.​

On the resale side, Azizi Riviera led apartment resales with 95 transactions worth AED 76.1 million and a median price of AED 720,000, while Creek Beach – Canopy and Sobha Hartland – The Crest both posted median prices around AED 2.4 million, signalling robust demand for established waterfront and master-community stock. For resale villas, Rukan 3, Mudon Al Ranim 3 and The Valley – Talia were among the busiest, with median deal sizes from around AED 1.4 million to AED 4.4 million across the top performers, reflecting a maturing secondary market in family villa and townhouse communities.​

Multi-year November surge and trend table

Historical DXBinteract data compiled by fäm Properties show how the Dubai property market November 2025 figures cap a five-year climb in November sales. In November 2020, the market recorded around AED 7.4 billion from 3,900 transactions, rising to AED 18 billion (7,000 deals) in 2021 and AED 31 billion (11,100 deals) in 2022. That momentum pushed November volumes and values to AED 42.5 billion (12,300 deals) in 2023, AED 42.7 billion (14,500 deals) in 2024, and finally to November 2025’s AED 64.7 billion from 19,019 transactions, with both ticket sizes and price per square foot rising over the period.​

Dubai November Sales Trend (2020–2025)

Analysts note that the combination of rising volumes and higher average prices suggests the current cycle is driven by population growth, wealth migration and structural reforms such as long-term visas, rather than heavy leverage or speculative flipping, aligning with Knight Frank’s and other consultancies’ assessments of fundamentals-led growth. 

International property briefings add that Dubai remains a top global market for ultra-prime sales while still offering relatively low price points per square foot versus other financial hubs, which helps explain why higher-ticket assets such as the AED 203 million apartment and AED 110 million villa can transact alongside strong mid-market absorption.​

Indian investors: implications and entry points

For Indian buyers, the Dubai property market November 2025 data reinforces a trend that has been building over several years, with various broker and advisory reports indicating that Indian nationals have been the top foreign buyer group, accounting for roughly 22% of foreign purchases and investing more than AED 30–35 billion in 2024 alone. 

Analysts and brokerage-led reports cite factors such as tax-free rental yields often in the 6–8% range in prime and emerging communities, proximity to India and a large resident Indian population in Dubai as key drivers that continue to make the emirate competitive against domestic Indian property and other global markets.​

From an investor perspective, the dominance of AED 1–2 million assets and strong off-plan absorption suggests that Indian buyers looking at Dubai now may find more depth and liquidity in mid-priced apartments in communities such as Jumeirah Village Circle, Dubai South, Business Bay and waterfront regeneration areas, where long payment plans and high occupancy potential support yields. 

At the same time, the firming of the ultra-prime segment, including trophy homes on Palm Jumeirah and branded waterfront schemes, indicates that Indian high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth investors treating Dubai as a second home or wealth diversification hub are entering a market that is more mature, data transparent and regulated than in previous cycles, but where selectivity on project quality, developer track record and community fundamentals will be increasingly critical.
