How October compares with September
October's headline value rose slightly while the number of deals held steady. Underneath, the mix shifted: more homes sold, but at a lower average price.
Three points stand out:
- More buyers are active. Sales deals rose to 900, up from 879 in September and 767 in August. Demand is broadening as the cooler season brings buyers back.
- The average sale got smaller. With apartment towers such as City Towers and Ajman One near the top of the rankings, more of October's sales were likely mid-market units, which pulls the average down.
- Mortgages carried more of the value. Mortgage transactions were worth AED 373 million, up from about AED 340 million in August, showing more buyers are using finance.
A lower average sale price does not mean prices are falling. It mostly reflects which kinds of property changed hands this month.
Most traded projects and areas
Emirates City led again, and Al Helio 2 was Ajman's most traded area for the third month in a row.
Emirates City holds the top spot
Emirates City has been Ajman's most traded project in every monthly report this autumn. Affordable freehold apartments, ready stock and steady rental demand keep it a favourite with first-time buyers and investors. See our Emirates City Ajman complete area guide for towers, prices and amenities.
City Towers returns to the top three
City Towers in Al Nuaimia moved back into second place, after ranking second in August as well. Its central location and established towers attract buyers who want to live close to shops, schools and Sharjah.
Al Helio 2 leads for a third month
Al Helio 2 topped the area rankings again, with Al Helio 1 in third. Demand here is driven by families buying new villas and investors buying plots to build on. Read our Al Helio Ajman complete area guide for prices, rents and amenities.
Manama 14 entered the top three for October, reflecting interest in land outside the city centre.
Standout deals and mortgages
- Highest single sale: a property in Al Zorah sold for AED 36.3 million, the largest individual sale of the month. Al Zorah continues to attract high-end buyers looking for waterfront homes and golf-course living. Learn more in our Al Zorah area guide.
- Highest sale in a development project: AED 3 million in Ajman One.
- Largest mortgage: AED 31.4 million in Al Jurf Industrial 2, showing continued demand for industrial and commercial property.

What October's numbers mean for you
If you are buying a home
More buyers are in the market, so good units in popular projects like Emirates City, City Towers and Ajman One are moving quickly. Get pre-approved for finance and have your documents ready before viewings. Ajman remains far more affordable than Dubai, with an average price per square foot of around AED 300–400, compared with AED 1,200–1,500 in Dubai, according to Colliers data.
If you are investing
Consistent trading in the same top projects and areas points to a liquid market where it is easier to rent out and resell. Apartments in high-demand towers suit investors looking for rental income, while Al Helio plots and villas suit those looking for long-term growth. Flexible payment plans on off-plan projects can lower your upfront cost.
If you are selling
Sales volumes are rising and the peak season is under way, which gives sellers a large pool of buyers. Price realistically, since the average sale value dipped in October, and present your property well. Our guide on how to sell your property in Ajman covers valuation, listing and transfer.
Outlook for the rest of 2026
We expect the market to stay active through November and December, for three reasons.
- Peak season. The October to March period usually brings the highest number of viewings, relocations and overseas buyers.
- A strong year so far. With about AED 17.8 billion traded from January to October, Ajman is on track for one of its strongest years.
- New supply. Developers continue to launch projects with attractive payment plans, giving buyers more choice.
The November figures, due in early December, will show whether sales volumes keep rising. We will cover them here.
