The real estate market in Sharjah’s Central and Eastern regions saw a significant surge during the first half of 2026, reaching a total transaction value of Dh1.1 billion. According to the Sharjah Real Estate Registration Department, this growth highlights a major shift in investor interest toward areas beyond the city center. Throughout the six-month period, the department processed over 16,000 transactions across a combined area of 37 million square feet, demonstrating the massive scale and diversity of the region's expanding property market.

Omar Al Mansouri, Director of the Branches Department, attributed this upward trend to the government’s strategic development plans and ongoing investments in local infrastructure. Kalba emerged as the top performer, leading in total transaction value with Dh513 million, while the Central Region dominated in terms of overall sales volume. Residential properties remain the primary driver of this activity, accounting for over 82% of total sales, followed by industrial and commercial sectors. With steady mortgage activity and a commitment to digital service enhancements, these regions are cementing their status as sustainable and highly attractive hubs for property investment.
