The UAE’s PropTech market is projected to more than double from around $678M in 2025 to $1.62B by 2032, according to MarkNtel Advisors. The forecast represents a compound annual growth rate of 13.28% between 2026 and 2032.
The expansion is being driven by smart city programs, investment in digital infrastructure and growing demand for efficiency tools across property development, sales and asset management, the research firm said.
Immersive visualization is among the technologies gaining traction. Virtual and augmented reality allow developers, architects and clients to experience properties at full scale before construction, helping teams identify design issues earlier.
Lifesize Plans Dubai, which has operated in the UAE since 2023, combines 1:1-scale plan projections with VR and AR experiences. The Australian company says its technology enables clients to navigate proposed layouts before construction begins and assess how spaces will work in practice.
The market’s growth is also being supported by the digitization of real estate services. Dubai Land Department has introduced digital services for property registration, valuations and rental contracts, alongside AI and data-driven tools for investors and the rental market.
