Dubai’s off-plan property market continued to shine in March 2025, with sales soaring 19.3% year-on-year, despite a 7.4% dip from February, according to ValuStrat. Off-plan deals still dominated the scene, making up nearly 70% of all residential transactions.

Jumeirah Village Circle led the charge, followed by Business Bay, Damac Island City, Dubai Production City, and Dubai Maritime City. Notably, Dubai Production City and Uptown Motor City hit record highs in off-plan volumes.

On the other hand, ready home sales slipped 2.4% from the previous month but remained up 1.1% year-on-year—showing buyers still have an appetite for secondary properties.

ValuStrat’s Price Index reflected a cooling trend, rising just 1.6% in March—its slowest pace in nearly two years.

Villa prices climbed 2% month-on-month and a stunning 30.3% over the year, with Jumeirah Islands, Palm Jumeirah, Emirates Hills, and The Meadows leading gains. Apartment values also saw steady growth, up 1.2% monthly and 21.4% annually, with The Greens, Dubailand Residence Complex, Palm Jumeirah, Town Square, and The Views seeing the highest returns.
