SO FAR, 3,634 PROPERTIES SOLD ABOVE AED 10 MILLION
Dubai’s ultra-luxury property market achieved a record milestone in the first half of 2025, with 3,634 transactions above AED 10 million, reflecting a 63.85% year-on-year increase. This growth underscores the emirate’s rising appeal as a global hub for ultra-high-net-worth investors, supported by visionary regulation, demand-led development, and sustained international inflows.
The performance of this segment highlights how Dubai is expanding its influence in the global real estate landscape. Activity was balanced across off-plan and ready properties, with villas, branded residences, and penthouses driving momentum. This expansion is not only contributing to the AED 431 billion in total market transactions recorded in H1 2025 but also shaping Dubai’s evolution as one of the world’s most competitive investment destinations.
Farooq Syed, CEO of Springfield Properties, said: “These record-breaking numbers show that Dubai has entered a new chapter in global luxury real estate – one defined by vision, speed, and scale. The strength of this segment reflects both the depth of international demand and the maturity of Dubai’s regulatory and development frameworks.
Dubai is not only competing with the world’s top real estate hubs but setting new benchmarks for them. The alignment between policy foresight, demand-led development, and investor confidence is creating a market that is both resilient and extraordinary in its momentum”. Added Syed.
Dubai currently ranks among the world’s top 20 wealthiest cities, with over 80,000 millionaires choosing to live, invest, and build their futures here. With 81,084 new homes scheduled for delivery in 2025 and more than 300,000 units planned by 2028, the city is well positioned to sustain this trajectory of growth.
