Two factors have contributed to the rise in demand for apartments in Dubai over villas.
One is the return to normalcy following COVID-19, which has resulted in a renewed sense of community and the return of people to apartment living in recent years.
The other factor is, of course, rising property prices, which have caused some people to downsize their living arrangements. For someone living in a three- or four-bedroom villa in a community like Dubai Hills Estate or Arabian Ranches, a three-bedroom apartment is the next logical step. As a result, demand for apartments in Dubai Hills, a previously quiet area of the community, has increased significantly.
