The Department of Municipalities and Transport (DMT) has revealed that the UAE capital's real estate market recorded 19,033 transactions, reaching a total value of AED77.6 billion in 2022.

As per the Department's reports, the emirate's real estate sector recorded 9,010 sales transactions worth AED23.5 billion and 10,023 mortgage transactions worth AED54.1 billion

The real estate market in Abu Dhabi saw significant growth and strong performance in 2022 compared to 2021. The value of real estate transactions rose by 8.5 percent, while the number of transactions jumped by 27.2 percent in the same period. This progress demonstrates the Emirate's resilience and reinforces the key role of Abu Dhabi's real estate sector in diversifying the UAE's economy.

DMT has also announced seven new real estate investment areas in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi for 2022. These investment areas have been chosen for their diversity in project offerings, unit designs and affordability, making them appealing to a wide range of investors with varying preferences.

The recently announced investment zones constitute a significant expansion to the emirate's total number of investment zones, reaching 25 by the end of 2022. These zones will be open to foreign investors, providing them with an extended range of investment opportunities.

Due to their prime location, these investment zones offer a competitive edge, flexible markets, and outstanding infrastructure. Moreover, they provide a secure and stable environment that makes them ideal for those who seek to live, work, or invest in the region.

Dr. Adeeb Al Afifi, Executive Director of the Real Estate sector at DMT, said, "In 2022, the real estate market in Abu Dhabi has sustained positive outcomes and high growth rates, thanks to a range of government policies and measures. This has not only broadened investment options in the real estate market but has also increased transparency in this vital sector. As a result, investor confidence in the real estate market has strengthened, enhancing Abu Dhabi's position as one of the most attractive global destinations for real estate investment."

Al Afifi added, "At the Department of Municipalities and Transport, we are committed to investing in resources and devising necessary solutions to provide a sustainable, developed, and integrated infrastructure that meets the societal needs for facilities and services, while also enhancing the overall style and quality of life. Our focus is to establish and implement standardised procedures and laws, which are an extension of our leadership's vision, and contribute to the growth of the real estate sector while enhancing economic growth in Abu Dhabi."
