Luxury Properties
The Q2 2023 Trends Report for Dubai Real Estate reveals some interesting insights into the state of the market. According to the report, average villa valuations surpassed peaks seen in 2014 by 1.2%, with villa prices increasing by 15.8% YoY and 4.3% QoQ. The highest quarterly performers were Jumeirah Islands (5.5%), Palm Jumeirah (5.2%), Dubai Hills Estate (5.1%), and Arabian Ranches (4.6%).
There could be several reasons for the changes observed in the Dubai real estate market. One possible explanation for the growth in the luxury segment could be an increase in demand for high-end properties, driven by factors such as economic growth, rising incomes, and favorable investment conditions.
Affordable Housing Segment
The affordable segment of the market also witnessed evident growth for the first time since the pandemic. Lower-priced and high-yield areas observed notable quarterly growth, such as Discovery Gardens (4.5%), Motor City (4.3%), The Greens (3.9%), and Dubai Production City (3.4%).
On the other hand, the growth observed in the affordable segment of the market could be attributed to a number of factors, including government initiatives to promote affordable housing, an increase in supply of lower-priced properties, and improving economic conditions for lower-income households.
Upcoming Projects
Based on developer completion schedules, the number of new build units entering the market this year was estimated at 53,332 homes. Total project completions as of the first half of this year stood at 12,599 apartments and 1,213 villas, equivalent to only 26% of preliminary estimates for the whole of 2023.
Notable apartment completions included Beach Isle at Emaar Beachfront with 412 units, Azizi Rivera 14 with 215 units, Forte at the Opera District with 817 units, and Riviera Azure at Azizi Rivera in Meydan with 133 units.
In terms of future developments, there are currently 87,661 apartments and 21,653 villas under construction with promised handovers by 2028. More than half of those projects are located in Mohammed Bin Rashid (MBR) City (21%).

The Q2 2023 Trends Report for Dubai Real Estate provides valuable insights into the current state of the market. With strong growth in both the luxury and affordable segments, as well as a healthy pipeline of new developments, the future looks bright for Dubai real estate.
