Sharjah achieved a total real estate trading value of AED 5.5 billion during May 2025, recording 8,415 transactions across the emirate. The total area traded reached 13.2 million square feet, underlining the emirate’s advancing market strength.
Investors conducted 1,574 outright sales deals, accounting for roughly 18.7 per cent of activity, alongside 381 mortgage registrations totalling AED 1.1 billion—4.5 per cent of the transactions. Additionally, 1,486 initial sale contracts were signed, and 3,619 ownership certificates issued, followed by 1,355 ownership deeds, according to data. These metrics reflect growing confidence in long-term investment within Sharjah’s regulatory and economic framework.
Sharjah’s trend mirrors broader national momentum. UAE-wide real estate dealings across the five emirates reached AED 239 billion in the first quarter of 2025, with Sharjah alone recording AED 13.2 billion in Q1—up 31.9 per cent from the same period a year earlier. That figure encompassed nearly 24,600 transactions.
Market observers attribute the upswing to enhanced regulations, expanding infrastructure and investor-friendly policies. The introduction of expanded foreign ownership and digital processing platforms has particularly encouraged participation from both domestic and international buyers. Sharjah’s growing reputation as a smart-living hub—in developments such as Aljada and the forested Masaar and Masaar 2 communities by Arada—is also playing a key role.
Aljada, covering 24 million square feet in Muwaileh, and Masaar, with over 1,500 completed smart homes, exemplify the emirate’s emphasis on integrated, sustainable neighbourhoods. Arada’s newer masterplans also signal ongoing demand for eco-friendly and lifestyle-led residential projects.
