The Dubai property market in March 2025
In March 2025 the Dubai Land Department registered 13,345 residential sales worth AED 32.9bn — 13% more than in March 2024, when it registered 11,774, and 17% more by value. Most were homes not yet built: 8,775 off-plan against 4,570 completed. A completed home changed hands at a median AED 1.50M, AED 1,370 a square foot — 12% more a foot than in March 2024.

March 2025 against the twelve months before it

Completed homes
What a completed home sold for in March 2025
Resales of completed homes, by layout — a layout prints at ten sales. Off-plan is kept out: a launch price is a developer’s schedule, not a market, and the month’s off-plan sales have their own line beside the table.
| Layout | Sales | Median price | AED/sqft |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 770 | AED 574K | 1,325 |
| 1 B/R | 1,421 | AED 1.00M | 1,317 |
| 2 B/R | 987 | AED 1.92M | 1,476 |
| 3 B/R | 530 | AED 3.20M | 1,582 |
| 4 B/R | 166 | AED 4.22M | 1,489 |
| 5 B/R | 12 | AED 6.47M | 2,201 |
Medians of what buyers paid at transfer, never an asking price. Each is a month’s sales, so a layout’s figure moves with which buildings happened to sell as well as with prices; the year-long reading of the same register is on Dubai property prices.
- Registration days
- 21, 3 March to 31 March. The busiest was 24 March: 1,127 sales, AED 2.3bn.
- Off-plan
- 8,775 sales at a median AED 1,764 a square foot — its own line, never blended into the completed-home medians.
- Villas
- 1,505 of the 13,345, as the register files them. A house sold with its plot is filed as land and is not counted here.
- Payment plans
- 818 registered under the Land Department’s payment-plan and delayed-sale procedures.

A community counts the sales of every building and villa project in it that has a page here. A sale the register files where we have no page — a plot, a tower not yet placed — is in the month’s total and in neither table. The busiest table’s price is completed homes only, so a community that sold nothing but launches has none; the dearest table ranks completed homes alone.

Every sale the tower registered in the month. The price is its median a square foot where it sold one kind of home — off-plan or completed — and a dash where it sold both, because the two are never averaged together. All 15 sold only off-plan in March.

Apartments and villas as the register files them. A house registered with its plot is filed as land, so a mansion can be missing here; it is read apart, with every year’s record since 2015, on the most expensive homes sold in Dubai. A home with no page here is named by the Land Department’s area.
Questions people ask
The Dubai property market in March 2025, answered
How many properties were sold in Dubai in March 2025?
13,345 residential sales were registered at the Dubai Land Department in March 2025, worth AED 32.9bn: 8,775 off-plan and 4,570 completed homes. That is 13% more than in March 2024, when 11,774 were registered. The count is of transfers the Land Department registered in the month; mortgage registrations, gifts, lease-to-own conversions, developers' own filings and transfers recorded at a fraction of what a home sells for are left out, because none of them is a price a buyer paid.
What was the most expensive home sold in Dubai in March 2025?
The dearest apartment or villa registered was an AED 73M off-plan four-bedroom home at AVA at Palm Jumeirah By Omniyat, Palm Jumeirah — 16,164 sq ft at AED 4,539 a square foot, registered on 20 March. Next came AED 73M at Amali Island, The World Islands, and AED 62M at The Alba Residences by Omniyat, Palm Jumeirah. A house registered with its plot is filed as land rather than as a villa, so it is read apart, on the page for the most expensive homes sold in Dubai.
Which area of Dubai had the most property sales in March 2025?
Jumeirah Village Circle, with 1,293 registered sales, 895 of them off-plan; then Business Bay (975) and Dubai Production City (IMPZ) (586). The dearest, by the median price of a square foot of completed home, was Dubai Harbour at AED 3,531 across 37 resales. A community counts every building and villa project in it that has a page here.
The same register read as a year rather than a month: what every community and building sells for now is Dubai property prices, and how far prices have moved since 2020 is the Dubai property price index. Rents are read from the Ejari register as a year, with a new lease kept apart from a renewal, on Dubai rent prices.
