Dubai real estate records 4,049 new activities in H1 2025

August 11, 2025 (MLN): Dubai’s real estate market recorded 4,049 new activities in the first half of 2025 indicating the emirate’s growing appeal as a leading investment destination and the breadth of opportunities available to investors and service providers.

The growth was supported by an advanced regulatory framework that facilitates smooth real estate operations and enhances market transparency, as APP reported.

Central to this framework is the Dubai Land Department’s (DLD) ‘Trakheesi System,’ the official platform for registering and activating a wide range of sector activities.

Registration in the Trakheesi System is mandatory for several real estate activities including brokerage for buying and selling properties, leasing brokerage, property management supervision, valuation services, buying and selling land and real estate management of jointly owned properties, consultancy, mortgage brokerage and mortgage advisory services.

Certain activities require pre approval from the Trakheesi System such as real estate development, leasing and property management for private and third-party properties as well as services provided by real estate service trustees and real estate promotion trustees.

Real estate brokerage for property sales led the activity list with 2,301 registrations, followed by leasing brokerage services with 1,279.

Land and property trading accounted for 273 activities, while property management supervision services and mortgage brokerage each recorded 43 activities.

Other registered activities included real estate consultancy (40), leasing and property management for private properties (24) and for third parties (nine), property valuation (14), jointly owned property management (nine), real estate development (11) and mortgage advisory services (three).

The diversity of registered activities underscores DLD’s focus on fostering a flexible business environment that meets the evolving needs of investors and stakeholders across all real estate segments. This approach supports market competitiveness, population growth, and economic expansion.

The H1 data also shows streamlined procedures introduced by DLD through an integrated digital ecosystem, enabling clients to issue and renew licences efficiently.

This aligns with the Dubai Real Estate Strategy 2033 which aims to enhance the emirate’s position as a premier global real estate destination and ensure a secure sustainable business environment.
