Let’s break down this cinematic tale of growth, glamour, and a dash of real estate magic.
Significant Growth in Sales Volume and Value
In June 2024, Dubai’s property market broke all records with an astounding 14,370 transactions, marking a 37.4% increase compared to June 2023. The total sales value soared to a magnificent AED 46.4 billion, a hefty 52.3% rise from the same month last year. It seems everyone wanted a piece of Dubai, and who can blame them?
Dominance of Apartment and Villa Transactions
The apartment segment stole the show with 10,644 units sold, contributing a whopping AED 20 billion to the total sales value, up 29.7% from last year. Villas also played a significant role, with 1,615 units sold, amounting to AED 8.5 billion in sales value, a modest 1.5% increase from June 2023. These homes are not just bricks and mortar; they are dreams turned into reality.
Performance of Commercial Properties and Plots
Commercial properties accounted for 298 transactions, generating AED 794.1 million, an 11.2% increase from last year. But the real surprise came from plot sales, with 1,813 transactions totaling an impressive AED 17 billion—a jaw-dropping 363.7% surge compared to June 2023. It looks like everyone wants their own piece of Dubai soil!
Trends in Property Prices
Despite the glitz and glamour, property prices saw some intriguing twists. Apartment prices averaged AED 1.2 million, reflecting a 6.3% decrease from June 2023. On the flip side, villa prices rose significantly to AED 3.6 million, a 29.1% increase. Commercial property prices averaged AED 1.4 million, up 20.3%, while plot prices increased by 7.7% to AED 5.5 million. It’s a mixed bag, much like a Bollywood masala film.
Rental Market Trends
The rental market had its own story to tell. The average annual rent for apartments climbed to AED 76.9K, a 22.1% increase from last year. Villas saw a modest 3.1% rise, averaging AED 165K per year. However, commercial property rents took a nosedive, dropping by 36.3% to AED 60.6K annually. It’s all about location, location, location!
Leading Areas and Projects
June 2024 saw high demand in several star-studded areas. Notable transactions included Bulgari Lighthouse Dubai on Island 2, with an apartment selling for a cool AED 148 million, and The Waterside Villas by Ellington in Wadi Al Safa 3, where a villa sold for AED 39 million. Other headliners included Six Senses Residences on Palm Jumeirah and Serenity Mansions in Tilal Al Ghaf.
Off-Plan vs. Ready Properties
Off-plan properties continued to be the hot favourites, with projects like Bayz 101 by Danube, Sobha One, and Cove Living Residence by Imtiaz leading the charge. The ready property market also held its own, with Remraam, Lakeside, and Downtown Views II shining bright in apartment sales.
Increase in Mortgage Transactions
Mortgage transactions also saw a notable increase, with 3,345 transactions worth AED 12.1 billion, representing a 23.2% increase in volume and a 7.8% rise in value compared to June 2023. It’s clear that Dubai’s love affair with real estate financing is far from over.
June 2024 has set a new benchmark for Dubai’s real estate market, showcasing the city’s resilience and attractiveness as a global property hotspot. As Dubai continues to evolve and expand, it remains a top choice for investors seeking stability, growth, and unparalleled luxury.
