Amman, Jan. 11 (Petra) – Jordan’s real estate market demonstrated significant resilience and a late-year liquidity surge in 2025, with the total trading volume reaching JD7.179 billion. According to the year-end fiscal audit from the Department of Lands and Survey, the market saw a 7 percent appreciation in aggregate value compared to the 2024 fiscal year.

This uptick in market valuation outpaced the actual volume of transactions, which saw more marginal growth. Total property sales across the Kingdom increased by less than 1 percent, with apartment sales holding steady and land transactions rising by a modest 1 percent year-on-year. This disparity between total trading value and transaction volume suggests a shift toward high-value asset transfers and inflationary pressure on property valuations rather than a massive increase in the number of unit exchanges.

The sector’s performance was bolstered by an extraordinary rally in December 2025. Monthly trading volume skyrocketed by 58 percent compared to December 2024, reaching JD724.7 million. This end-of-year surge directly impacted the national treasury, with monthly revenues jumping 20 percent to JD28 million. For the full year, the Department of Lands and Survey recorded total revenues of JD275 million, a 5 percent increase that underscores the sector's vital role in fiscal collection.

The stabilization of the market in 2025 follows a period of digital modernization within the Department of Lands and Survey, including the launch of the "Smart Plan" and a new visual identity aimed at improving the ease of doing business for domestic and expatriate investors. Despite regional geopolitical fluctuations, the steady absorption of residential units and the sharp rise in year-end trading volume reflect sustained confidence in the Kingdom's property market as a secure vehicle for capital.
