UAE residents remain highly motivated to buy homes despite Dubai’s record-breaking property prices, according to Property Finder’s Market Pulse for September and October 2025. Across both months, 69% of respondents expressed plans to purchase a property within six months, reflecting strong confidence in the real estate market. Price expectations shifted only slightly, with no major anticipation of a sharp correction. This steady sentiment aligns with Dubai’s exceptional market performance—November alone saw 19,019 property transactions, pushing total 2025 deals to a record 197,263. Sales value surged to Dh624.1 billion, significantly surpassing 2024 levels. Key areas driving transactions included Jumeirah Village Circle, Wadi Al Safa 5, Business Bay, Dubai South, and Mina Rashid. High-end sales remained robust, with luxury apartments and villas setting new benchmarks. Developers also led with strong first-sale volumes. Experts say Dubai’s growth is driven by population expansion, strong investor inflows, and global capital migration, placing the market in a phase of maturity rather than speculation.
