This surge underscores the growing investor confidence and the emirate’s rising prominence as a real estate powerhouse.
Andrei Charapenak, CEO of Major Developers, said: “Ras Al Khaimah is no longer an emerging player—it has cemented itself as a prime investment destination.
“The staggering increase in real estate transactions and mortgage values reflects the emirate’s economic momentum, fuelled by visionary leadership, strategic infrastructure developments, and a strong appetite for premium residential and commercial spaces.
“We are seeing a paradigm shift in investor sentiment—luxury, sustainability, and lifestyle integration are driving purchasing decisions”.
The surge in transactions comes at a time when Ras Al Khaimah is attracting heightened interest due to its strategic initiatives, including the expansion of Ras Al Khaimah International Airport, hospitality and entertainment investments, and a strong push toward sustainable urban development.
