Dubai Residential REIT has reported a net profit of AED 622 million for the first half of 2025, reflecting a 10% increase compared to the same period last year. This growth was supported by a 10% rise in total revenue, which reached AED 958 million, and an 11% increase in EBITDA, amounting to AED 718 million.

The REIT maintained exceptionally high occupancy rates of 98% across its residential portfolio, underscoring the sustained demand for quality rental properties in Dubai’s thriving real estate market. This strong performance highlights the continued resilience of the rental sector, driven by steady population growth, inflow of expatriates, and a stable investment climate.

To reward investors, the trust announced an interim dividend of AED 550 million, which is scheduled for distribution in September. The combination of healthy revenues, cost efficiency, and near-full occupancy positions the REIT to maintain its growth momentum for the remainder of the year.

With Dubai’s property market continuing to experience strong rental demand and competitive yields, the REIT’s strategy of focusing on well-located residential assets appears to be delivering consistent value for both tenants and investors.
