Dubai still has a substantial residential pipeline ahead, with nearly 525,000 homes scheduled for completion through 2030, according to Cushman & Wakefield Core.
In this Property News International feature, we look at how much of that pipeline is actually under construction, where the biggest concentrations of new supply are emerging, and what it could mean for buyers, tenants, landlords, and developers.
Around 186,000 units have progressed beyond 20% construction, while approximately 55,600 homes are expected to be delivered in 2026. Nearly 45% of under-construction residential supply is concentrated across JVC and JVT, Dubai South, Mohammed Bin Rashid City, Business Bay, and Dubailand Residence Complex.
Most of that growth is vertical, with apartments accounting for more than 86% of residential units under construction.
The increase in supply is also arriving alongside softer market conditions, with city-wide residential prices down 4% quarter-on-quarter in Q2 2026 and rents declining 6%.
Watch the full video to see where Dubai is growing next and how the city’s construction pipeline could reshape the residential market over the next four years.
