Crompton Partners Releases Q2 2025 Market Report

Abu Dhabi, July 2025 – The Q2 2025 Secondary Market Report released by Crompton Partners Estate Agents confirms a pivotal shift in Abu Dhabi’s property landscape. No longer limited to flagship communities, market growth is now evident across nearly every major district in the capital.

“The market continues to go from strength to strength,” says Ben Crompton, Managing Partner at Crompton Partners. “What we’re seeing now is a more broad-based improvement. Communities that had previously lagged are catching up.”

Reem Island: A Market Rebound

Previously considered slow-moving compared to Yas and Saadiyat, Reem Island posted some of its most encouraging figures this quarter:

Shams prices rose 15% year-on-year, with a 16% annualised turnover rate

Sun Sky Gate, Marina Square, and City of Lights gained 7–11%

Najmat, historically one of the quietest sub-communities, increased by 4%

“Reem Island is finally seeing the movement many had anticipated. These are healthy, sustainable numbers,” Crompton added.

Al Reef and Al Ghadeer: Quiet Markets Accelerate

Two communities long overlooked by investors—Al Reef and Al Ghadeer—delivered some of the quarter’s most notable results:

Reef 2 saw a 33% increase in value

Reef 1 Villas and Apartments rose by 11% and 7%, respectively

In Al Ghadeer, Phase 1 Villas increased 35%, and Phase 2 grew 32%

These results reflect a growing appetite for affordable communities with long-term potential.

Yas Island: Market Leader

A consistent top performer, Yas Island maintained its momentum:

Noya, Viva, and Luma posted a remarkable 47% year-on-year increase

Water’s Edge, West Yas, Ansam, and Yas Acres saw growth between 20–27%

Mayan, while more stable, still achieved a 7% increase

“Yas continues to outperform. The figures speak for themselves,” said Crompton.

Raha Beach and Saadiyat Island: High-End Stability

Established waterfront and luxury communities also performed well in Q2:

Bandar (Raha Beach) recorded a 33% increase

Zeina and Muneera followed with 22% growth

On Saadiyat Island, Mamsha rose 9%, and Saadiyat Beach Villas gained 7%

Hidd Al Saadiyat saw a 21% decline, attributed to low transaction volume

“Very few communities are now growing below 10%,” Crompton observed. “We are starting to see the kind of price momentum that defined Dubai’s growth phase in 2022 and 2023. In many ways, Abu Dhabi is now taking that position in 2025.”
