Abu Dhabi’s real estate market in 2025 is characterised by record transaction values and volumes, reflecting deep liquidity and growing confidence from both end-users and investors. Residential demand is consistently outpacing new supply, particularly in prime districts and investment zones, resulting in sustained price appreciation for apartments, luxury schemes and high-end off-plan projects.
Foreign capital plays a central role, with expatriate and non-resident buyers accounting for a significant share of sales and bringing diversified investment from Europe, Asia and other global markets. At the same time, rising mortgage activity, an expanding pipeline of new developments and a larger base of licensed real estate professionals are strengthening market infrastructure and reinforcing real estate’s growing contribution to Abu Dhabi’s non-oil GDP.
