REGA launches ‘Saudi Properties’ to streamline property sales to foreigners

As part of preparations for Saudi Arabia’s Non-Saudi Property Ownership Law, which comes into effect from mid-January 2026, the country’s Real Estate General Authority (REGA) is launching ‘Saudi Properties’, the official platform for all real estate ownership transactions by non-Saudis within the Kingdom.

The ‘Saudi Properties’ brand was first unveiled during REGA’s participation in the Cityscape Global exhibition in Riyadh in November 2025. The launch announcement marks a milestone toward strengthening the regulatory framework of the real estate investment environment and enhancing transparency and reliability.

Saudi Properties will be the official gateway for all ownership processes. This includes browsing real estate opportunities, communicating with developers, submitting applications, verifying eligibility, and connecting with relevant entities within an integrated ecosystem.

The platform, which will be one of the core enablers for implementing the Non-Saudi Property Ownership Law, ensures smooth execution of property ownership by providing investors with a simple and seamless digital journey while purchasing property in the Kingdom.

A REGA statement said: “The portal further seeks to enhance international confidence in the Kingdom’s real estate environment, providing a trusted, safe, and user-friendly experience for investors and residents seeking property ownership.

“This will support market growth and help maintain the balance between supply and demand through the provision of integrated digital services with accurate and up-to-date information, enabling investors to make informed, data-driven decisions.”

The launch of the “Saudi Properties” portal marks a significant milestone in strengthening the Kingdom’s position as a leading global destination for real-estate investment. It reflects an integrated national vision to build a comprehensive real estate environment that supports economic growth and enhances quality of life.
