Real estate market is currently witnessing an expansion in the use of artificial intelligence (AI)
Real estate experts have confirmed that the local market, including the real estate market in Sharjah, is currently witnessing an expansion in the use of artificial intelligence (AI) across various sectors of the real estate industry. They emphasized that AI has become a new competitive field for many companies operating in the sector, including property management companies, which are now adopting smart solutions to enhance the efficiency of their services, especially in the management of residential and commercial properties.
They noted that Dubai has been a pioneer in developing a unique model based on the adoption of modern technologies, which contribute to shaping the future of the real estate industry—a model that Sharjah has also started to follow, particularly in areas such as property management in Sharjah, property maintenance, and even electronic contract renewal.
They explained to Emarat Al Youm that AI technologies help integrate digital solutions into construction and development projects to create environmentally friendly buildings, improve operational efficiency, and enhance productivity. AI has also opened new horizons for real estate brokers through the internet, facilitating the marketing of apartments for rent in Sharjah and investment units from anywhere in the world.
They affirmed that the adoption of smart services has transformed many concepts within the real estate sector and introduced new services, whether related to property management, sales and purchases, or offering real estate promotions based on accurate data and intelligent market analysis. They also pointed to the role of AI in property management, monitoring units, and accurately identifying maintenance requirements in buildings remotely. It enables the creation of databases that allow for faster property maintenance services, which is crucial given the increasing demand for residential and commercial property management services in Sharjah.
Sufian Al Salamat, CEO of Al Sowm Real Estate, stated that "the real estate markets are currently witnessing an expansion in the adoption of AI across various areas, making it a new competitive field for active companies, including those specialized in property management in Sharjah."
He explained that "among the key uses of AI are property monitoring, identifying maintenance needs, and establishing smart screens to track feedback from tenants or owners, thereby improving post-sale services and enabling electronic contract renewals, especially with rising rental rates in Sharjah." Real estate expert Ismail Al Hosani added that the expansion of AI adoption has become a significant standard of competitiveness, especially as the market trends toward apartments for rent in Sharjah equipped with smart services and proactive maintenance. This increases Sharjah’s appeal as a promising real estate and investment hub, offering various real estate deals in both the sales and rental markets.
He confirmed that the use of AI is not limited to Dubai but has begun spreading to other Emirates, particularly Sharjah, where there is growing demand for property management companies that utilize modern technologies to manage residential and commercial real estate and offer effective solutions in areas such as remote contract renewal and data analysis related to rentals in Sharjah.
The experts concluded by stressing that the upcoming phase will witness significant advancements in property management and real estate maintenance, in line with the comprehensive digital transformation that Sharjah is implementing. This includes integrating AI into all sector services, thereby supporting the growth of the real estate market in Sharjah and enhancing its competitiveness both locally and regionally.
