Ajman’s real estate sector witnessed an impressive upswing in July 2025, recording AED 1.48 billion in valuation transactions.

A total of 220 valuation transactions were carried out during the month, highlighting increasing investor confidence in the emirate’s property market.
Commercial Sector Takes the Lead
Among the sectors evaluated, commercial properties claimed the largest share of the total valuation value, reaching AED 943 million. Residential properties followed, with a valuation of AED 198 million, while industrial properties secured AED 336 million. This distribution indicates a strong preference for commercial real estate in Ajman, likely reflecting ongoing economic activity and business expansion within the emirate.
Golden Visa Impact on Valuation Growth
A major contributor to the July performance was the increase in valuation activity related to long-term Golden Residency permits. Out of the total 220 valuation transactions, 195 were linked to Golden Visa applications for investors. These transactions alone accounted for over AED 1.3 billion in value, representing a dramatic increase of 273 percent. This surge underlines the growing popularity of Ajman as an investment destination for long-term residents and international investors seeking stability and opportunity in the UAE.
Types of Valuation Activity
The valuation transactions conducted in July encompassed a variety of purposes, including personal valuations, institutional and court-related valuations, and those tied to Golden Residency applications. This variety reflects a dynamic and maturing real estate ecosystem, where activity spans across individual needs, legal requirements, and strategic investment planning.
Ajman’s Position Strengthens
The July report showcases Ajman’s growing relevance in the UAE’s real estate landscape. With commercial properties driving valuations, and investor interest soaring through the Golden Visa initiative, the emirate continues to strengthen its position as a competitive and forward-looking market for property investment. The sharp rise in both transaction volume and value is a clear signal of confidence, as Ajman builds momentum for the second half of the year.
