Dubai, UAE
Arada, a master property developer in the UAE, has achieved Dh9.15 billion in sales during the the first half of 2025 – a threefold increase from the same period in 2024. The master developer saw a 336 percent uptick in the value of property sold at its projects in Dubai and Sharjah, driven by major launches and increasing interest in existing master planned communities.
As many as 2,382 properties were sold in H1 2025, a 247 percent gain on the same period in 2024. Arada’s best-performing projects during this period included wellness destination Akala, which was launched in Dubai in May, and the 2,000-villa and townhouse community Masaar 2, which was launched in Sharjah in February and sold out in just three hours.
The developer is targeting full-year sales totalling Dh15 billion. It is also on track to complete and deliver 2,000 homes this year.
Ahmed Alkhoshaibi, Group CEO of Arada, said, “We’re looking to build on the excellent sales results from the first six months of the year by launching a further three projects across the UAE in the second half of 2025, which will together total around 5,000 new homes. In addition, as we gear up for the launch of our first projects in Australia, we will continue to identify new opportunities and partnerships not just in the UAE but overseas as well.”
Earlier this month, the company successfully concluded its latest visit to the global financial markets with the closure of a US$450 million sukuk.
Arada’s sales figures have been bolstered by the strong performances of property markets in both Sharjah and Dubai. Recent data issued by the Sharjah Real Estate Registration Department showed a 48 percent rise in the value of property sold in the six months of 2025 to Dh27 billion, compared to the same period a year previously. Meanwhile Dubai continued to cement its position as a global property hotspot, with a 25 percent increase in the value of real estate sold to Dh431 billion.
