Saudi Arabia has announced a major update to its property ownership laws, allowing foreign individuals and companies to buy and invest in real estate across the Kingdom starting January. The reform opens one of the region’s fastest-growing property markets to international investors, supporting Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 economic reforms.The Real Estate General Authority (REGA) said the new framework aims to boost market growth, improve project quality, generate employment opportunities for citizens, and raise urban and architectural standards.Foreign investors will be allowed to purchase residential, commercial, and agricultural properties in designated areas, subject to regulatory approvals. The move aligns with global best practices and comes alongside mega developments such as NEOM, Qiddiya, and Red Sea Global, which are expected to attract significant foreign capital and accelerate economic diversification.
