The strong performance mirrors the UAE's strength, which entered this period of global tension from a position of strength, backed by strong fiscal buffers, supply chain flexibility, and healthy consumer demand, said the CEO of Deyaar, Saeed Mohammed Al Qatami.
"The fundamentals of Dubai's real estate market remain robust, supported by high demand and favourable economic conditions, allowing us to effectively capitalize on emerging opportunities. We are also dedicated to sustaining profitability while strategically launching select projects that address our customers' evolving requirements," he added.
The recent handover milestone, well over 1,400 units, was a key driver in showcasing Deyaar's operation efficiency and dedication to delivering quality project, Al Qatami said.
