Dubai’s commercial property market continues to demonstrate resilience, with transaction value reaching AED 65.23 billion during the first half of 2026, up 8.5% year on year, according to an analysis by ANAROCK Middle East. The office segment emerged as the key growth driver, supported by strong demand for Grade A space and limited premium supply.
The momentum is also spreading across other commercial segments, with retail gaining traction while investors increasingly show interest in income-generating assets rather than simply land acquisitions. The latest figures reinforce Dubai’s reputation as an attractive destination for businesses, investors and commercial property owners, despite a more challenging regional environment.
For Dubai’s real estate story, this is an important sign of diversification: the market is not relying solely on residential property, with offices, retail and other commercial assets adding strength to the wider property ecosystem.
