Dubai’s May 2026 unit and villa transactions were led by a small cluster of developers. AVENEW Real Estate Development recorded 21 transactions, Damac Prime Development 14 and Marquis Home Developer 10, while the top three together totalled 45 transactions and $181,028,326 in transaction value.
May 2026
Madinat Al Mataar finished May 2026 with 1,060 unit and villa transactions, putting it ahead of the next-highest area by count in Dubai's monthly area table. The same ranking also shows that activity concentration did not move in lockstep with value concentration: some lower-volume areas carried larger transaction totals than the leader.
November 2025 – April 2026
Dubai’s unit and villa market over November 2025 to April 2026 is best read through concentration: Business Bay leads the area table on both transaction count and transaction value, and the monthly trend visual shows how the market moved across the six months, with April naturally carrying a partial-month caution. SOBHA L.L.C also features in the broader market context, giving the snapshot an identifiable developer reference without stretching beyond the evidence.
