Real estate trading volume in Qatar exceeds USD 84.6 million in one week

Doha, Qatar - August 29, 2025 - The volume of real estate trading in sales contracts registered with the Real Estate Registration Department at the Ministry of Justice during the week of August 17 to August 21 reached USD 70.1 million (QR 255.2 million). In addition, the total value of sales contracts for residential units amounted to USD 14.5 million (QR 53 million). Combined, the total value of real estate transactions exceeded USD 84.6 million (QR 308 million).

Diverse Range of Transactions

According to the department’s weekly bulletin, properties traded included vacant lands, houses, a residential building, a residential compound, commercial buildings, and residential units. The diversity of assets highlights the market’s ability to attract investment across multiple segments.

Sales operations were distributed across several municipalities, including Doha, Al Rayyan, Al Wakrah, Al Daayen, Umm Salal, Al Khor, and Al Dhakira. Notable transactions were recorded in high-demand areas such as The Pearl Island, Lusail (Zone 69), and Ghara T’heilb, reinforcing the ongoing demand in both established and emerging residential and commercial hubs.

Market Performance

Compared with the previous week, August 10 to August 14, when real estate trading volumes exceeded USD 89.5 million (QR 326 million), the latest figures reflect a slight decline in overall activity. Analysts, however, note that weekly fluctuations are typical in the real estate market and point to the continued strength of residential unit sales as a sign of steady demand.

The department’s weekly bulletins remain a key indicator of the health and stability of Qatar’s property sector, which plays a vital role in economic diversification under Qatar National Vision 2030.

Investor Confidence

Industry experts emphasize that the inclusion of high-value locations such as The Pearl and Lusail demonstrates strong interest from both Qatari and international buyers, particularly for modern residential units and strategically located commercial properties. This trend reflects the resilience of Qatar’s real estate sector amid broader global economic challenges.

With trading volumes consistently surpassing the USD 82 million (QR 300 million) mark in recent weeks, the sector is expected to maintain momentum in the coming months, supported by population growth, infrastructure expansion, and favorable government regulations that continue to encourage real estate investment.
