![](https://www.meteoradevelopers.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/meteora-blog-feature-april-17.webp)
The Dubai real estate market continues to exhibit resilience, showing no signs of a downturn. Sales volumes in the first three months of the year have witnessed a significant increase of 19.3% compared to Q1 of 2023, according to statistics released by Allsopp & Allsopp.
This upward trajectory has continued, with sales between January and March exceeding the record-breaking levels set in Q4 2023 maintaining a robust momentum as asserted by the property specialists.
The analysis has also revealed that 30% of all properties sold were priced under AED1 million ($272,000), while a substantial 80% of sales fell below the AED3 million ($817,000) threshold.
This surge is poised to lead to the largest real estate boom in the past decade!
Two of the main catalysts to this boom are the tourism sector and the removal of the UAE from the FATF “grey list”.
As Dubai’s tourism sector flourishes, the city’s real estate market has experienced a transformative surge with the demand for housing options for both tourists and industry professionals expected to remain robust, driving the real estate market to even greater heights.
The removal of the UAE from the FATF “grey list” has bolstered investor confidence, solidifying its position as an attractive and secure investment destination for international entities and investors which is also fuelling investments in affordable housing.
Allsopp & Allsopp’s formal declaration indicated a correlation between the growing number of finance buyers compared to cash buyers and the elevation of interest in properties characterized by affordability.
There has been a significant increase in the frequency of new project launches, with an average of one launch every 17 hours, a substantial improvement from the previous average of 36 hours per launch.
Off-plan property preferences continue to dominate the market, evidenced by the increased proportion of sales attributed to such developments. In order to meet this growing demand, Allsopp & Allsopp have noted a significant increase in the frequency of new project launches, with an average of one launch every 17 hours, a substantial improvement from the previous average of 36 hours per launch.
