Sharjah 24: On the UAE–Kuwait Relations Week, the Sharjah Real Estate Registration Department revealed figures highlighting the rapid growth of real estate investments by citizens of the sisterly State of Kuwait, reaffirming the depth and strength of the historical and economic ties between the United Arab Emirates and the State of Kuwait.

Growing confidence

The data showed that total Kuwaiti investments in Sharjah’s real estate sector reached AED 1.049 billion in 2025, reflecting growing confidence in the emirate’s investment environment, supported by legislative and economic stability and advanced infrastructure.

The total number of properties owned by Kuwaiti nationals reached 5,660, underscoring the continuity of Kuwait’s investment presence in Sharjah’s real estate market over many years. This presence is not limited to property ownership alone, but also extends to the pioneering role of Kuwaiti investors as some of the earliest real estate developers in the emirate. The number of real estate development projects by Kuwaiti developers reached 13 projects, confirming their active contribution to the growth of Sharjah’s real estate sector.

51.7% growth in the number of traded properties

In 2025, trading activity recorded notable growth, with the number of properties traded by Kuwaiti investors in Sharjah rising to 868 properties, achieving a growth rate of 51.7% compared to 2024, during which 573 properties were traded.

38.2% increase in the number of Kuwaiti investors

In the same context, the number of Kuwaiti investors increased to 811 investors in 2025, marking a growth of 38.2% compared to 2024, when the number stood at 587 investors. This reflects the expansion of the Kuwaiti investor base and the entry of new segments into Sharjah’s real estate market.

These positive indicators come as an extension of the strong fraternal relations between the United Arab Emirates and the State of Kuwait, which are built on long-standing foundations of cooperation, integration, and mutual trust across various fields, most notably the economic and investment sectors.
