Emaar has recorded AED30.6 billion in residential sales transactions in Dubai so far this year, 83.2 per cent ahead of second-placed DAMAC at AED16.7 billion, according to a market analysis published by fäm Properties on July 23.
The top ten developers by total sales volume have combined for 36,808 transactions worth AED86.8 billion as of July 22.
In volume terms, Azizi led all developers with 8,411 transactions, followed by DAMAC with 6,387 and Emaar with 5,550.
Azizi’s dominance is concentrated at the affordable end: 8,053 of its deals, worth AED6.6 billion, were in properties priced below AED2 million, placing it ahead of Binghatti (4,268 transactions, AED4.5 billion) and DAMAC (2,247 transactions, AED2.5 billion) in that segment.
In the luxury tier above AED15 million, Emaar recorded 387 transactions worth AED8.4 billion, ahead of Omniyat with 212 deals at AED6.5 billion and H&H with 178 deals at AED6.9 billion.
Emaar also led on delivery, completing nine projects and 3,819 units this year, and has 150 active projects under construction. DAMAC sits second on both counts, with seven projects and 2,591 units delivered and 113 projects under construction.
Reportage has launched the most projects in 2026 at 16, and also ranks among the top ten in both overall sales and the sub-AED2 million segment.
“The fact that Dubai’s leading developers have been driving sales across both the luxury and affordable segments throughout the year is clear sign of market strength. This shows that demand is not concentrated in one area, and points to a healthy, diversified market with steady demand from both investors and end-users,” Firas Al Msaddi, CEO of fäm Properties said in a statement.
Data for the affordable segment came from DXBinteract, while the broader analysis was produced by fäm Properties.
