The exceptional Q1 performance of 2025 reveals fascinating insights that signal a new direction for Dubai’s real estate market. As many investors around the world face inflation, increase of taxation and declining living standards in their home countries, Dubai continues to offer them a world class experience to live, invest, start businesses and work.

With a growing population and increasing investment flow into the Emirate, the luxury segment of Dubai’s property market has gained significant momentum. Even though Dubai is already renowned for its luxury property market, the Q1 performance of 2025 presented a jump in the numbers when it comes to properties worth over $10 million.

A total of 111 properties, each valued over $10 million were registered this quarter. Examining the communities that are featured in the transactions, it’s easy to spot where the ultra wealthy individuals turn their attention to.

Palm Jumeirah, which is the premier destination for luxury living, maintains its top position, selling 34 properties worth $562.8 million in this first quarter of the year.

Emirates Hills Estate secured the second place with 15 properties sold worth $356.7 million. Notably this community had the most expensive property sold this quarter-a 6 bedroom villa valued at $106.3 million.

In addition, 12 properties were sold for more than $25 million each, further indicating the increasing interest of ultra-high-net-worth individuals in Dubai’s luxury property market.

Thanks to the ideal conditions to live, business friendly policies, and attractive tax benefits, Dubai continues to appeal to global investors seeking to secure and grow their wealth. In this competitive market, Dubai stands out as one of the most attractive global destinations for luxury real estate investment on the global stage.
