MARKETBEAT- Office Q1 2025, Dubai, UAE

Dubai continues to experience a supply shortage, with only 0.89 million sq. ft. of new office stock expected in 2025. Major upcoming projects include the Innovation Hub (2025), DIFC Square (2026), and Aldar’s Office Tower (2027). However, strong pre-leasing activity is absorbing much of this future supply. The market is expected to remain undersupplied through 2026, maintaining upward pressure on rents and occupancy. A potential rebalancing may occur from 2027–2028 as more projects are delivered. In response, off-plan strata office sales have surged, with strong transactional activity driven by investor and end-user demand.
