Driven by the UAE’s ongoing urban development initiatives, the country’s residential real estate market is projected to see stable and sustained growth in the coming years, according to Arabian Gulf Properties.

Residential real estate transactions in the UAE are forecast to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.66% from 2025 to 2029, according to a global study by Statista. 

This steady upward trend signals a strong outlook for the UAE’s property market, supported by growing investor confidence, supportive government initiatives, and the nation’s continued appeal as a leading destination for both business and high-quality living. 

Arabian Gulf Properties interprets this trend as a strong indication of the market’s resilience and ongoing development.

“This sustained market growth is a positive indicator for the real estate sector of the UAE. As demand matures and diversifies, developers must continue to innovate and deliver communities that serve the long-term aspirations of residents and investors alike,” noted Chairman Badar Rashid Alblooshi,.

The developer emphasised that, with a growing portfolio focused on livability, connectivity, and strong architectural design, it is well-equipped to contribute to the UAE’s next phase of national development.
