The value of real estate transactions in Ajman exceeded AED 25 billion ($6.8 billion) by November 2025. The emirate has been steadily developing its property sector, with results visible quarter after quarter. In November alone, activity rose by almost one third year-on-year, reaching AED 2.42 billion across 1,552 transactions, according to the Ajman Department of Land and Real Estate Regulation, cited by state news agency Wam.
Total transaction value for the year surpassed AED 25.3 billion. Ajman had already exceeded its full-year 2024 result of AED 20.5 billion back in September, when monthly transactions reached AED 2.97 billion.
Transaction structure
Trading activity across 1,302 transactions generated AED 1.82 billion. Al Rumailah 2 recorded the single largest sale, valued at AED 110 million. Mortgage transactions amounted to approximately AED 370.4 million across 186 deals. “Strong demand across all property types reflects investor confidence and growing interest in opportunities throughout the emirate,” said Omar Al Muhairi, Director General of the department, in comments to Wam. Government initiatives continue to support the market:
- visas for retirees and remote workers,
- the expanded 10-year Golden Visa programme,
- ongoing diversification of the UAE economy.

Ajman, located between Sharjah and Umm Al Quwain, is increasingly becoming part of the nationwide property upswing. Last month, the department held a meeting with the Federal Tax Authority. The agenda focused on three key areas:
- unifying registration and transaction procedures,
- strengthening coordination between government entities,
- simplifying access to documentation for residents and investors.
A broader UAE real estate market overview confirms sustained growth momentum across the region. Earlier this year, Ajman introduced a new law aimed at fostering sector development and attracting investment, enhancing investor protection and transaction transparency.

Tourism potential
Simplified access to documents such as a UAE lease agreement PDF format is easing transactions for international buyers. The emirate is also strengthening its tourism position: Canadian luxury hotel brand Four Seasons has announced its seventh property in the UAE – Four Seasons Resort Ajman at Al Zorah, scheduled to open in 2026. Located on the Arabian Gulf with views over the Arabian Sea, the resort will add a premium hospitality segment to Ajman’s offering.
