Off-plan dominates: Dubai property sales hit 66,900 with off-plan at ~74% of deals

By the offplans.com Research Desk · Dubai

Off-plan has cemented its place at the centre of Dubai’s market. Reporting from Arabian Business puts Dubai property sales at around 66,900 transactions with off-plan capturing roughly 74% of the total — continuing the trend seen through Q1, when off-plan represented the majority of activity.

Why it matters

Buyer preference for off-plan is being driven by extended payment plans, lower entry prices, modern product and — increasingly — mortgage access and Golden Visa eligibility. For sellers and investors, it reinforces the importance of choosing developments with strong fundamentals and credible completion timelines.
