Dubai real estate hits AED142 billion in Q1 2025
From 10% ROI on budget homes to 21% price jumps in luxury villas — 2025 is a win for every type of investor.
AED142B in just three months — Dubai’s property market isn’t slowing down.
Dubai’s property market kicked off 2025 with over AED142 billion ($38.7B) in sales across 45,000+ transactions, according to Bayut's analysis of Dubai Land Department data.
Prices are rising across the board — from affordable to luxury — fueled by steady demand, ample inventory, and the city’s growing appeal to high-net-worth individuals.
Luxury villa prices saw the biggest spike, especially in DAMAC Hills, with a surge of up to 21%. Affordable areas like Dubai Silicon Oasis and Dubailand saw apartment prices climb by as much as 10%, while Business Bay was the only area to see a slight dip in apartment prices.
Rental yields remain strong. Affordable apartments in areas like International City delivered 9–11% returns. Luxury units in Al Sufouh and DAMAC Hills offered yields nearing 8%. Mid-tier villas in JVC and Mudon brought in 5–8% returns.
Bayut CEO Haider Ali Khan said the momentum continues in 2025, with a notable shift toward master-planned, all-inclusive communities.
