Dubai’s property market displays positive sentiment, with buyer enquiries rising 38% week-on-week following a brief period of softer activity. According to new insights from leading brokerage betterhomes, this suggests buyers are taking a measured and considered approach to purchasing decisions rather than stepping back from the market.
Viewings and transactions are continuing across a range of communities, with much of the activity being driven by buyers already based in Dubai and those focused on longer-term property ownership.
Louis Harding, CEO of betterhomes, said the latest data reflects a market that remains active, even as buyers and sellers take more time to assess their options.
“Even in a more cautious environment, the market is still moving,” Harding said. “What we’re seeing is buyers and sellers taking a more measured approach to decision-making, but the underlying interest in Dubai property remains strong.”
The supply of new properties remains broadly in line with levels seen at the same time last year, reflecting ongoing participation from sellers. Online engagement also indicates sustained interest from long-term buyers, with website search traffic rising 14% week-on-week, despite a slight dip last month.
Harding added that Dubai’s property market has historically demonstrated resilience during periods of regional and global uncertainty. “With more than 40 years in the market, we’ve seen the property sector navigate many global events and cycles,” he said. “The key for both buyers and sellers is to take a measured view, consider their options carefully, and make decisions that align with their longer-term plans.”
