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.

In response, off-plan strata office sales have surged, with strong transactional activity driven by investor and end-user demand.
