After two years of price consolidation, West Amman's premium land corridors are showing renewed momentum. We analyse the key drivers and what they mean for investors in 2025.
Price Performance Review
Premium West Amman land — Abdoun, Deir Ghbar, Um Uthaina — recorded average price increases of 6–9% in 2024, outperforming the broader Amman market which saw 3–5% average growth. The outperformance of the premium tier reflects persistent supply constraints in established neighborhoods where new large plots are essentially unavailable, combined with sustained demand from GCC investors and returning Jordanian diaspora. Growth corridor areas (Shafa Badran, Marj Al Hamam) recorded stronger percentage gains from lower bases, averaging 8–12% appreciation as infrastructure investment accelerated.
2025 Outlook: Three Key Themes
Theme 1 — Supply Scarcity Intensifies: The pipeline of large, well-located plots in West Amman continues to shrink as older landowners sell and development absorbs available land. This structural scarcity will support price floors in premium areas regardless of broader economic conditions. Theme 2 — GCC Capital Flows: Regional instability continues to redirect investment capital toward Jordan's relative safety. Gulf investor interest in Amman land has increased materially since 2022, with Saudi and Emirati buyers the most active. Theme 3 — Infrastructure Uplift: GAM's ongoing investment in road networks, utility upgrades, and public transport in northern and southwestern corridors will continue to pull value into previously peripheral areas.
