Dubai Property Watch Q3 2026
Dubai’s property market showed signs of rebalancing in Q3 2026, with residential sales cooling and prices easing slightly as new supply increased. Apartment deliveries rose by 23% year-on-year, while off-plan properties continued to dominate, accounting for around 70% of residential transactions. Rental demand remained firm, with villa leasing growing faster than apartment leasing. The office sector also gained momentum, supported by rising sales prices and premium rents. Land Sterling’s Q3 2026 Property Watch examines these shifts across sales, leasing and supply, highlighting how changing demand and more flexible developer payment plans are shaping the market.
