Dubai Commercial & Investment Real Estate
Dubai real estate, decoded for investors.
Off-market deals, live pricing data and direct developer relationships — built over 19 years working exclusively with serious capital in Dubai.
We work with investors who expect more than a listings portal: real numbers, real access, real expertise.
Dubai's first independent, weekly-updated commercial real-estate index
Median office and retail prices per square foot, sourced directly from Dubai Land Department transaction records, tracking quarterly data back to 2021.
Residential buyers have had public price benchmarks for years. Commercial investors haven't, until now.
The Mitchell's Dubai Commercial Real Estate Index is a free, publicly accessible index built specifically for Dubai's office and retail markets, with three sub-indices, All Commercial, Office and Retail, so office-heavy and retail-heavy portfolios can each track the benchmark that actually applies to them. Every data point is unedited Dubai Land Department transaction data, normalised to a base value of 100 in 2022: transparent methodology, no black box.

Our Dubai journey
Over 19 years in the market. One point of view: yours.
Since 2007, I have been proud to call Dubai home, and to watch it transform into a genuinely global commercial and investment hub. The UAE's stable, pro-business environment, its openness to innovation, and the sheer diversity of the people who do business here have created one of the most attractive commercial real-estate markets in the world.
At Mitchell's Realty, my team and I put nearly two decades of on-the-ground experience to work for our clients, helping investors read Dubai's evolving landscape and capitalise on its ongoing growth, rather than react to it after the fact.
Use this site to access Dubai's best property deals, investor project briefs, real-time market intelligence, investor strategies, financial-planning tools and the kind of insider context that usually only comes from being in the room. Explore it, share it, and if you need anything at all, reach out directly, I read every message myself. Happy investing.

Developer news, before it reaches the portals
A twice-daily feed of primary-source updates, launches, price revisions, cancellations, inventory releases and handovers, direct from Dubai's developers.
Most market news online is a press release, days after the fact. Ours isn't. Our team is in touch with Dubai's developers every day, so we have the latest information as it happens — refreshed twice a day and turned into a clean, searchable feed you can filter by developer or by news type. It's the closest thing to being in the room when a launch, a cancellation unit or a price change happens, and it's the primary-source edge no property portal can offer.
