Dubai’s real estate market achieved $18.2 billion in sales during May 2025, fueled by increasing confidence in property investment and a significant shift towards tokenization. A report from Property Finder indicated that 18,700 transactions marked a 44% year-on-year increase in transaction value, with primary market sales seeing a remarkable 314% rise compared to May 2024. The surge in sales coincided with major initiatives aimed at modernizing real estate transactions, including a $3 billion blockchain deal and new regulations from the Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority (VARA), providing clarity for tokenized assets. The trends suggest that Dubai’s market is not only thriving but also ready to embrace innovations such as fractional property ownership through tokenization. Scott Thiel of Tokinvest emphasized that this robust market activity signals a shift towards fluidity and accessible real estate investment opportunities. As regulatory frameworks strengthen, stakeholders expect tokenization to further accelerate the market’s growth, redefining property ownership dynamics.
