According to Metropolitan Capital Real Estate (MCRE), luxury deals of AED 7 million and more increased by 5% in Abu Dhabi’s real estate market, hitting AED 6.30 billion in the first four months of 2025.
Rising demand from long-term residents, foreign investors, and high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) supported the noteworthy performance.
Evgeny Ratskevich, CEO of Metropolitan Capital Real Estate, commented: “We have witnessed investors initially seeking to purchase a single property, ultimately expanding their portfolios due to a strong belief in the market’s potential.”
“We are also seeing an increase in the number of long-term residents who are opting to purchase properties in Abu Dhabi instead of renting, reflecting the growing confidence in the city’s real estate market,” Ratskevich added.
Regarding the branded homes, developers established brand-new, lifestyle-focused communities on Mariah Island, Al Reem, and Saadiyat Island. In the meanwhile, it is anticipated that at least 25 branded homes would be revealed in 2025.
With super-luxury properties making up over AED 2.60 billion, or 60% of the overall secondary market turnover, the luxury sector saw an annual increase of 158%, reaching approximately AED 3 billion in resale activity till April 2025.
