The year 2023 has emerged as a monumental year in the history of sales within the Dubai Real Estate market. As we transition from 2023 into 2024, it is evident that while demand and sentiment are experiencing a modest respite in certain sectors, they are concurrently accelerating in others.
It is pertinent to examine the shifting dynamics of buyer sales inquiries in the context of recent developments.
Notably, there has been a resurgence in inquiries in the Marina following a period of dormancy over the summer. Conversely, it is observable that interest in Dubai Hills is experiencing a marginal decline.

Dubai Marina vs Al Furjan
Al Furjan did well over the summer slow down however as you can see enquires are slowing down.
Why is Dubai Marina seeing strong interest?
It appears to be a confluence of two distinct trends. Firstly, Dubai Marina may have been somewhat overshadowed due to the fervor surrounding off-plan purchasing throughout the year.
Secondly, as property values have significantly increased in other communities, it is undeniable that Dubai Marina continues to present authentic value for money. This proposition of value appears to have been recognized recently by both investors and end-users, leading to an uptick in inquiries.
As evidenced by the accompanying chart, Marina still offers great value with the Median transaction price remaining steady throughout the year, whereas Downtown and Palm Jumeirah prices have risen.
Its also clear to see Marina offers savings of up to 1,000,000 AED based on median transactions.
The value for money on offer is even more compelling when you are reminded of all the benefits available;
Unrivaled Waterfront Views
The number one reason most flock to Dubai Marina is the breathtaking waterfront views of the vast azure sea, yacht-filled marina promenade, and stunning Dubai skyline from Dubai Marina's residences. These signature vistas can be enjoyed from lofty penthouse apartments or spacious master bedrooms. They epitomize the opulence Dubai Marina has become renowned for. Whether relaxing on your private balcony or lounging by building infinity pools, you'll never tire of the picturesque landscapes.
Dining, Shopping & Leisure Galore
Beyond residences, Dubai Marina boasts one of Dubai's busiest retail & hospitality districts along the buzzing Marina Walk. From al fresco cafes to Michelin-starred eateries, the neighborhood dining scene is one of the most vibrant. High-fashion boutiques, art studios, yacht charter companies plus a bustling promenade - Dubai Marina endlessly stimulates and entertains. Additionally, there are tailor-made amenities for kids including trampolines, gaming zones and fun learning activities, making Dubai Marina family-friendly.
Accessible, Walkable Community
Unlike many sprawling Dubai districts, Dubai Marina has an intimate community feel with most attractions walkable, including the nearby beach. Alternatively, the Dubai tram and multiple Metro stations make venturing out easy. Dubai Marina provides true island/peninsula-like living with two-way access points. With nearly every possible lifestyle amenity enveloped across a compact area, Dubai Marina is essentially a self- contained all-in-one luxury destination.
With its thriving restaurant district, off-the-charts amenities, prodigious skyline views and overall luxury, Dubai Marina sets a new precedent for ultra-upscale waterfront living. It's not hard to see why it's become one of Dubai's most coveted addresses.
