Dubai's real estate prices have dropped for the first time since the global pandemic. The home price index by ValuStrat fell 5.9% in March compared to the previous month. The decline is attributed to reduced demand due to regional conflict and geopolitical tensions, including missile and drone attacks from Iran's retaliation for US and Israeli actions. Residential sales value in Dubai fell nearly 20% to $10.1 billion in March from February. The number of transactions dropped from nearly 16,000 to about 13,000. Despite the decline, developers continue to launch new projects and offer incentives to support demand. Property companies listed in Dubai are recovering from declines after the war began on February 28.
