This strong performance shows high investor confidence, increasing business activity, and a growing demand for premium office spaces in key areas like Business Bay, Jumeirah Lakes Towers (JLT), and Barsha Heights (Tecom).

The number of office transactions rose 19% from the previous quarter and 45% from the previous year, highlighting continuous demand from business owners, investors, and multinational firms looking for strategic locations and long-term growth.

The Dubai office market remained exceptionally strong throughout Q3 2025, fueled by record demand for Grade-A and ESG-compliant office towers. With vacancy rates at historic lows, both fitted and vacant commercial spaces continue to draw unprecedented interest from investors.

Business Bay continued to be Dubai’s most active office hub, recording 328 office transactions in Q3 2025. It was followed closely by:

Jumeirah Lakes Towers (JLT): 277 transactions
