Sharjah’s real estate sector maintained its growth trajectory in April 2025, recording 7,206 transactions with a combined value of over $1 billion, according to data from the Sharjah Real Estate Registration Department.

The total traded area reached nearly 10.3 million square feet, reflecting continued investor confidence and rising activity across the emirate.

This strong performance highlights the emirate’s flexible government policies, stable regulations, and expanding portfolio of major development projects. Sharjah’s urban expansion and infrastructure growth have further fueled market interest from both local and international investors.

Population growth and rising demand for housing have broadened the range of real estate offerings in Sharjah. April’s transactions reflect this trend, including a standout $31 million deal for a built-in land plot in Al Majaz 3—one of the emirate’s largest. The same area also recorded the month’s top mortgage deal at $35 million.

Sales activity spanned 117 areas, underscoring the emirate’s geographical investment diversity. Of the 7,206 total transactions, 1,415 were sales, accounting for 19.6%, while mortgage deals totaled 413, valued at $235.9 million. Other transaction types included 751 initial contracts, 3,453 ownership certificates, and 1,174 ownership deeds.

Residential, commercial, industrial, and agricultural lands all featured in April’s sales, with 785 land plots, 338 tower units, and 292 built-in land properties changing hands.

Among Sharjah’s neighborhoods, Al Metraq recorded the highest number of sales at 365, followed by Muwailih Commercial (156), Tilal (152), and Al Khan (64). In terms of trading value, Muwailih Commercial led with $94.8 million, followed by Tilal ($84.5 million), Al Sajaa Industrial ($45.8 million), and Al Majaz 3 ($37 million).

The Central Region saw 66 sales, with Industrial Area 3 topping both volume and value at 19 transactions worth $4.5 million. In Khor Fakkan, 24 sales were recorded, with Hay Al-Bardi 5 leading in value at $1.1 million. Kalba followed with 11 transactions, dominated by Al Tarif 5, which posted the highest local trading value of $353,935.

Sharjah’s property market continues to benefit from its investor-friendly environment, varied real estate offerings, and long-term development strategy.
