    Move or Wait? Dubai’s 20 September 2025 Property Signal
    • Market Watch

    The Central Bank of the UAE reduced its base rate to 4.15% in mid-September, easing local borrowing costs while average home-financing rates remain within the 4%–6% range.

    According to CBRE, residential prices to June 2025 rose about 14% year-on-year — apartments +13% and villas +16% — with 18,564 transactions recorded in August totalling AED 50.7 billion.

    Rents increased 7.2% annually, supported by solid leasing demand, while developer launches exceeded 50 projects in July. Overall, Dubai’s market signals a balanced phase amid resilient activity and moderate financing conditions.

    How These Numbers Affect You

    Is getting a mortgage in Dubai easier or more competitive now? Will my monthly payment drop?

    The base-rate cut indicates a modest easing in funding costs, while advertised mortgages broadly remain in the mid-single digits.

    First-Time Buyers: this suggests borrowing conditions may be marginally more accommodating.

    Investors: it indicates financing remains available at 4%–6%, which may support leveraged acquisitions if other terms are acceptable.

    Are Dubai property prices rising or cooling?
