Al Muhairi noted that the July report included a wide range of activities, such as personal valuations, court and institutional valuations, as well as assessments tied to the long-term Golden Residency programme for investors.

This marks a 273% increase compared to June, highlighting Ajman’s growing appeal to investors seeking long-term residency benefits alongside real estate ownership.

The surge in valuations demonstrates continued confidence in Ajman’s property sector, which benefits from affordability, accessibility, and attractive investment incentives. With demand rising across commercial and residential categories, the emirate is positioned to sustain its growth trajectory as both local and international investors explore opportunities outside Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

Industry experts suggest that Ajman’s real estate market will remain buoyant through 2025, supported by investor-friendly regulations, infrastructure expansion, and competitive yields compared to regional peers.
