Real Estate Boosts UAE Economic Growth

Real estate has become a key driver of UAE economic growth. The sector recorded strong performance in the first half of the year. Both Dubai and Abu Dhabi witnessed a surge in property deals. Investors, buyers, and developers played a major role in this rise.

Off-plan properties dominate transactions

Off-plan properties dominated sales in both major cities. These are properties sold before construction is complete. Buyers prefer them because they offer flexible payment plans.
