The value of residential and commercial apartments’ deals topped Dh17 billion, while land purchasing transactions amounted to Dh14 billion and villas deals stood at Dh3 billion, stated data released by DLD.
This growing number of real estate purchasers came as a result of the attractiveness of the real estate market in Dubai thanks to a number of recently issued decisions by the UAE government, it stated.
The real estate transactions over the past five-month period included completed and ongoing deals.
The apartments market came in the first spot in terms of transactions, beating the lands market, while the villas market maintained its third-place position it stated.
