Samana Developers Plans IPO as Its Market Share Rises in Dubai
Samana Developers is preparing to launch an IPO next year. The company aims to offer around 20 percent of its shares to the public. This move comes after strong growth in Dubai’s real estate market and a sharp rise in the company’s sales and project launches.
Samana has grown into one of the strongest private developers in the city. It now holds about four percent of Dubai’s total property market. The company has gained from the sharp rise in demand during the post-pandemic period. New residents and global investors continue to fuel this demand across the city.
Dubai’s property market has surged over the past five years. Many communities have seen prices and rents more than double since 2020. The inflow of high-net-worth individuals and long-term residents has pushed buying activity to new highs.
Strong Off-Plan Performance in 2025
Samana reached a major milestone in June 2025. The company posted monthly sales of AED 1.1 billion, its best performance to date. It also ranked as the fifth highest off-plan seller in Dubai for the first half of the year, according to real estate data.
The company has shown rapid growth. In 2023, Off-Plan Projects by Samana developer recorded a 600 percent increase in sales and captured 2.8% of the off-plan market. This rise helped the developer enter the list of Dubai’s top seven developers in 2024. Today, it holds a 4.4% share of off-plan sales and manages a portfolio worth more than AED 17 billion.
International buyers play a major role in this growth. About 86% of Samana’s sales come from foreign investors. This shows Dubai’s strong pull as a safe and fast-growing investment market.
Project Launches and Delivery Plans
Samana launched 12 new projects in 2024. The company plans to expand further with 18 project launches by the end of 2025. It has already delivered four projects and plans to hand over four more before the year ends.
This steady pace supports the company’s commitment to quality and timely delivery. It also aligns with the wider growth of Dubai’s real estate sector.
The broader market reached AED 262.7 billion in residential sales during the first half of 2025. This reflects a 38% increase in value compared to the same period last year. These numbers show strong investor trust and a rising population that continues to drive demand.
Dubai closed Q3 2025 with 59,228 property sales worth AED 170.7 billion ($46.47 billion). Sales numbers were up 17.2%, and the total value rose 19.9% compared to Q3 2024.
A Distinct Residential Style
Samana is known for its approach to resort-style living. Many of its homes include private pools, green spaces, fitness areas and calm outdoor terraces. This design style creates peaceful residential spaces with comfort at the center. It appeals to buyers seeking a relaxed home environment within the city.
A Supportive IPO Environment in the UAE
The UAE has seen active IPO activity in recent years. Several public and private companies have chosen to list their shares to raise funds for expansion. Samana’s move fits into this broader trend.
Proven sales track record, growing demand and a solid pipeline of new projects in Dubai. The company sees next year as the right time to enter the public market.
