Dubai property price growth eases in August, report says

The significant price rises recorded earlier in the year are slowing against a backdrop of rising interest rates and new supply



Dubai property prices experienced their slowest monthly growth rate in 18 months in August, according to a report by property consultancy ValuStrat.

“The villa submarket continued to perform, albeit at a slower 1.3 per cent month-on-month expansion,” its August report said.

Apartments, which represent the majority of Dubai's residential market, “gradually approached possible price ceilings with a modest 0.7 per cent monthly rise”, it said.

The residential ValuStrat Price Index (VPI) rose 1 per cent monthly to 83.1 points last month. The 100 base points were set in January 2014.

The VPI for the villa segment was up more than 28 per cent annually to 101.9, while the apartment VPI stood at 71.4 points, an increase of about 8 per cent year on year.

Dubai property prices, particularly in prime areas, have increased over the past 12 months on the back of the wider economic recovery in the UAE from the coronavirus-induced slowdown.

The city has reported an influx of high-net-worth individuals and its market has also been buoyed by the success of the UAE's golden visa programme.

In July, Dubai also recorded the highest number of sales transactions in the past 12 years, according to Property Finder.

However, rising interest rates are expected to taper price growth in the latter part of the year.

“Demand for residential properties has reached an all-time high this year, but this trend could change due to the rising cost of living, increasing mortgage rates and anticipated new supply,” Haider Tuaima, director and head of real estate research at ValuStrat, told Reuters.

Average villa prices were up 28.1 per cent annually in August, ValuStrat said. The top performers were Arabian Ranches (33.3 per cent), Jumeirah Islands (31.9 per cent), Palm Jumeirah (29 per cent) and the Meadows (28.8 per cent).

Meanwhile, apartments recorded a more moderate 7.9 per cent average annual increase, with the highest growth registered on The Palm Jumeirah (18.2 per cent), Burj Khalifa (16.7 per cent) and Jumeirah Beach Residences (13.7 per cent).

The volume of residential sales transactions also jumped 80.4 per cent annually and 40.8 per cent monthly in August, ValuStrat said.

A total of 25 transactions valued at more than Dh30 million ($8.16m) were recorded last month. One transaction involved a villa located in Jumeirah Bay Island, which sold for Dh115m, while the largest penthouse at Atlantis The Royal Residences on The Palm Jumeirah sold for Dh163m.

The top off-plan locations for transactions in August included projects located in Damac Lagoons (14.3 per cent), Business Bay (12.1 per cent), Jumeirah Village (10.4 per cent), Arjan (8.8 per cent) and Downtown Dubai (7.2 per cent).

Industry experts told The National last month that demand in the UAE’s mortgage market is being driven by “Fomo [fear of missing out] buyers”, as potential home owners rushed to the market amid rising prices.

Shaikhani Group is working in Dubai since 1993, there was a time where 2000 Companies came and enlisted themselves as Genuine Designers, in today’s time exceptionally company survived, since of rules and controls of Dubai, Shaikhani is one of them who are still working in Dubai, this step which our pioneer of Dubai took it.

That’s the leading since it'll control the request and supply, also, it would be exceptionally advantageous for the client to have a variety of his choice within the same cost plan.

Dubai may be an endless city where each culture life in and Dubai’s government is taking actions to create beyond any doubt it'll be useful to all societies. They have distinctive ventures which are still in advance before long it'll be handover, those ventures are Gardenia, Champions Tower 3, Cambridge Trade Middle, and others are in pipeline. Usually the benchmark and trustiness of the company that in case you contribute with them, it'll be secure and productive in future. Encourage points of interest to visit their site www.shaikhanigroup.com
