Dubai, UAE, 17 February 2021:  According to the 11th edition of Mo’asher, Dubai’s official sales price index that was launched by Dubai Land Department (DLD) in cooperation with Property Finder, Dubai’s real estate market recorded 3,300 sales transactions worth AED 6.74 billion in January 2021, a growth of 15.5% in terms of transaction number and 37% in terms of value compared to January 2020.
 
The index data, which is taken from the base year 2012, base month for the monthly index January 2012, and the base quarter for the quarterly index Q1 2012, shows that Dubai’s real estate market continues its upwards trend. This is due to the proactive measures and incentive packages launched by the Dubai Government to address the effects and consequences of the outbreak of COVID-19. This will enhance customer trust and happiness in the sector by supporting the efforts made towards recovery and adapting to the new normal.
 
Overview
 
The trend throughout 2020 was that secondary/ready properties started transacting more, and this trend has continued into this new year. 72% of all transactions in January 2021 were for secondary/ready properties, and 28% were for off-plan properties. When looking at the volume of transactions, the secondary market transacted 2,373 properties worth a total of AED 5.43 billion, the highest number of secondary/ready properties transacted in a single month since March 2014. In terms of sales transactions, 70% were apartments and 30% were villas/townhouses.
 
Q4 2020 was the strongest quarter in 2020 and helped the year recover the most in terms of volume and value, with 11,065 sales transactions worth AED 22.07 billion. This quarter kept the momentum going for the year to start strong, and we are most likely going to see this going forward into February, where we have already seen more than AED 3.3 billion in sales transactions in the first week. This included an AED 38 million Villa in Emirates hills and an AED 25.2 million villa in Jumeirah Golf Estates.
 
11.5% of all sales for villas/townhouses in January 2021 took place in Nad Al Sheba, followed by DubaiLand (11.4%), Meydan (7.5%), Dubai Hills Estate (6%) and Tilal al Ghaf (4.8%).

As for apartments for the same period, the top areas of interest were Dubai Marina, Downtown Dubai, Palm Jumeirah, Business Bay, and Jumeirah Beach Residence.
