conversations than ever with neighbours, homeowners and clients asking the same thing:</p><p>“What’s actually happening in the market?”</p><p>And honestly - I understand why.</p><p>The headlines don’t always reflect what we’re seeing day-to-day here in Mira.</p><h2 style=\"line-height:1.38;margin-bottom:4pt;margin-top:18pt;\" dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:17pt;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;\">What I’m Seeing on the Ground</span></h2><p>Walking through the community, speaking to neighbours and working with buyers and sellers daily, there’s a noticeable shift:</p><ul><li>Homes are still being viewed</li><li>Families are still very interested in Mira</li><li>But buyers are taking longer to make decisions</li></ul><p>There’s more caution, more questions and certainly more comparison between communities before committing.</p><p>It’s not that demand has disappeared - it’s just become more thoughtful.&nbsp;</p><h2 style=\"line-height:1.38;margin-bottom:4pt;margin-top:18pt;\" dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:17pt;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;\">What the Data Is Telling Us</span></h2><p>When we look at the numbers for Q1:</p><ul><li><strong>2025:</strong> 45 sales</li><li><strong>2026:</strong> 27 sales</li></ul><p>That’s a 40% drop in volume but here’s the part many people don’t expect:</p><ul><li>Average prices have actually increased by nearly 8%</li></ul><h2 style=\"line-height:1.38;margin-bottom:4pt;margin-top:18pt;\" dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:17pt;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;\">Why This Is Happening</span></h2><p>From both a data perspective and what I’m experiencing firsthand:</p><ul><li>Fewer owners are choosing to sell</li><li>There’s less competition when a home does come to market</li><li>Buyers who are active are serious - but more selective</li></ul><p>So when the right property comes up, it still performs well.</p><h2 style=\"line-height:1.38;margin-bottom:4pt;margin-top:18pt;\" dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:17pt;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;\">A Closer Look - 3 Bed vs 4 Bed Homes</span></h2><p>One of the biggest questions I get asked is “Are certain types of homes performing better?” and this is what I am seeing:</p><ul><li>3-bed homes are still the most active</li><li style=\"margin-left:40px;\">They attract more buyers</li><li style=\"margin-left:40px;\">They remain the entry point into Mira</li><li>4-bed homes are achieving stronger values</li><li style=\"margin-left:40px;\">Higher average prices</li><li style=\"margin-left:40px;\">Higher price per sq ft</li></ul><p>Recent data shows:</p><ul><li>3-beds averaging around AED 3.3M</li><li>4-beds averaging around AED 4.0M+</li></ul><p>This reflects what I’m seeing daily - families are increasingly prioritising space and long-term living.&nbsp;</p><h2 style=\"line-height:1.38;margin-bottom:4pt;margin-top:18pt;\" dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:17pt;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;\">What Buyers Are Doing Differently</span></h2><p>This is where the biggest shift is happening.</p><p>Compared to last year:</p><ul><li>Buyer enquiries have been down, and enquiries coming through are going through vigorous Q&amp;A’s about the recent change in community management from Emaar to Dubai Community Management and how it has been faring.</li><li>Buyers are viewing multiple communities before deciding and weighing their options between layouts, newer builds and proximity to work and school environments.</li><li>Offers are typically coming in 5–10% below recent sales and rentals have also been adjusted in this quarter.</li></ul><p>And most importantly:</p><p>👉 Buyers are not rushing anymore</p><p>They want to feel confident before committing which is completely understandable given how quickly things have changed.</p><h2 style=\"line-height:1.38;margin-bottom:4pt;margin-top:18pt;\" dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:17pt;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;\">For Mira Homeowners Considering Selling</span></h2><p>If you’re thinking about selling, here’s my honest advice as this market requires a slightly different mindset.</p><ul><li>Pricing needs to be realistic from day one</li><li>Presentation matters more than ever</li><li>Flexibility in negotiation is key</li></ul><p>But I want to be very clear:</p><p style=\"margin-left:40px;\">✔ Homes are still selling&nbsp;<br>✔ Serious buyers are still in the market&nbsp;<br>✔ Mira remains incredibly desirable</p><p>It just requires the right strategy</p><h2 style=\"line-height:1.38;margin-bottom:4pt;margin-top:18pt;\" dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:17pt;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;\">Will Prices Drop?</span></h2><p>This is probably the question I’m asked the most and from what I’m seeing:</p><ul><li>We may see some sales happen slightly below previous highs</li><li>Especially as more homes come to market</li></ul><p>A 5–10% adjustment is realistic in the short term</p><p>But this doesn’t mean a downturn - it’s simply the market finding its balance again</p><h2 style=\"line-height:1.38;margin-bottom:4pt;margin-top:18pt;\" dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:17pt;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;\">What I Expect Over the Next Few Months</span></h2><p>Looking ahead to Q2:</p><ul><li>More homes will come to market</li><li>Buyers will remain cautious</li><li>Some transactions will set a slightly lower benchmark</li></ul><p>But once that happens the market should stabilise quite quickly because fundamentally, Mira hasn’t changed. Its still family-friendly, well-designed and a true community and that’s what continues to attract buyers.</p><p><img class=\"image_resized\" style=\"width:75%;\" src=\"https://ggfx-exclusivelinks.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/i/475136173_1518245522359941_8907432162635446434_n_6e659153f8.jpg\" alt=\"\" caption=\"\"></p><h2 style=\"line-height:1.38;margin-bottom:4pt;margin-top:18pt;\" dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:17pt;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;\">My Final Thoughts</span></h2><p>Living here myself, I see first-hand why people choose Mira - and why they stay.</p><p>The current market is far from falling apart - it is simply pausing, adjusting and becoming more considered.
