The CEO of the General Authority for Real Estate announced the completion of coverage for all areas within the urban boundary of Riyadh with in-kind registration, while continuing to accept property registration applications, following the completion of the city’s digital real estate map via the Real Estate Registry platform.
The number of actually registered properties has exceeded 710,110 properties, representing about 57% of the total announced areas.
It was explained that the real estate registry work, which began in May 2023, was part of a public-private partnership to enhance the reliability of real estate data and transition towards a unified digital system.
The completion of the announcement enables linking all properties in Riyadh to the Real Estate Registry systems, allowing owners to carry out initial in-kind registration procedures and benefit from documentation services and electronic issuance of real estate records.
The number of properties announced since the start of the project has exceeded 1.25 million properties across 52 real estate areas, while the number of actually registered properties has exceeded 710,000 properties, representing about 57% of the total announced areas.
The authority confirmed that the completion of the digital real estate map represents a qualitative step towards building an accurate real estate reference and raising the level of transparency in the sector, calling on owners to complete registering their properties via the Real Estate Registry platform or its application, or to contact the customer service center at 199002 to benefit from available services.
