What happened: Aqarat data confirms the QR2m–QR3m bracket ($549K–$824K) has recorded the highest transaction count YTD at 627 deals, leading all price segments. The QR3m–QR5m band followed with 461 deals, and QR1.5m–QR2m accounted for 357 transactions. At the lower end, properties below QR200K saw just 5 transactions, while the QR5m–QR10m luxury segment registered 156 deals, and above QR10m accounted for 129. Arabian BusinessZAWYA
Why it matters: The market is not broad-based — it's concentrated in a specific value band. This tells us two things: end-users with real purchasing power are active, and speculative bottom-feeding (cheap units) has dried up. The luxury segment's 285 combined transactions above QR5M is actually a healthy number, suggesting HNW/investor appetite remains intact at the top.
Who it affects:
[MALKIATI] — Your listing prioritisation and homepage merchandising should weight QR1.5M–QR5M inventory heavily. Cheap sub-QR500K listings are largely irrelevant to active buyers right now.
[INVESTOR] — The mid-range QR2M–QR3M sweet spot is where market liquidity sits. Resale plays in this bracket will find buyers faster than luxury or budget stock.
[SELLER] — If your unit is priced QR2M–QR5M and located in a tracked municipality, now is a good time to be listed. Demand is confirmed.
[AGENT] — Clients asking "is there a market?" — the answer is yes, but it's range-specific. Know your bracket.
