We analyzed price changes over the past six months across key Dubai districts of interest to investors. The review covers both the primary and secondary markets.

The market continues to grow, but at uneven speeds, depending on district maturity, building stock, and buyer profile.

Price growth in 2025 is no longer uniform — it is increasingly location- and asset-specific.

Al Furjan — Apartments

  • 🏗 Average price: USD 3,685 per sq. m
  • 📈 Growth: +24.0%

One of the fastest-growing areas in the first half of 2025.

Key growth drivers include:

  • Modern housing stock (mostly under 5 years old)
  • Relatively low entry price compared to central districts
  • Strong transport connectivity, including metro access and major highways

Al Furjan is increasingly selected by families and expatriates as a practical alternative to overheated locations.

Dubai Marina

  • 🏙 Average price: USD 5,147 per sq. m
  • 📈 Growth: +10.9%

Dubai Marina is experiencing a surge in secondary market activity.

Typical dynamics include:

  • Owners exiting older assets
  • Buyers leveraging accessible mortgage financing
  • Stable demand supported by brand recognition and lifestyle appeal

Proximity to the sea, mature infrastructure, and strong liquidity keep Marina among the most resilient districts.

Palm Jumeirah — Apartments

  • 🌴 Average price: USD 7,259 per sq. m
  • 📈 Growth: +7.0%

Palm Jumeirah remains a prime, supply-constrained location.

Apartments here are typically acquired with a long-term horizon, both for personal use and stable rental income, rather than short-term speculation.

Downtown Dubai

  • 🏛 Average price: USD 7,339 per sq. m
  • 📈 Growth: +5.3%

Downtown shows moderate but stable price growth.

Buyer interest is gradually recovering after a period of relative stagnation, supported by limited new supply and renewed end-user demand.

Jumeirah Lakes Towers (JLT)

  • 🌆 Average price: USD 4,055 per sq. m
  • 📈 Growth: +4.7%

JLT remains one of the most balanced districts in terms of price, infrastructure quality, and rental yields.

The area continues to attract tenants and investors seeking predictable performance rather than aggressive appreciation.

Dubai Hills Estate

  • 🌳 Average price: USD 6,527 per sq. m
  • 📈 Growth: +0.7%

After rapid growth during 2021–2023, the district has entered a phase of price stabilization.

Some assets became overvalued, but transaction volumes remain stable, indicating a healthy adjustment rather than a correction.

Business Bay

  • 🏢 Average price: USD 5,179 per sq. m
  • 📈 Growth: +0.6%

Business Bay remains one of Dubai’s most heterogeneous districts.

Luxury towers coexist with aging stock, and following price overheating in 2023–2024, growth has slowed significantly amid elevated supply levels.

Key Takeaways

  • 📌 Districts with overheated pricing have largely entered a stabilization phase
  • ➡️ Growth is now driven by asset quality, building age, and buyer profile
  • 🏦 Mortgage availability and renewed interest in the secondary market are acting as stabilizing forces for resale transactions

Pro Tip

The strongest growth in 2025 is concentrated in districts offering modern stock, reasonable entry prices, and functional livability.
