<The off-plan sales and leasing program “Wafi” has launched the service of issuing off-plan sales licenses electronically for the projects of the “Residential” program of the Ministry of Housing, in cooperation with its strategic partner “Thiqa Business Services”. This license is an extension of other electronic services previously launched, such as the off-plan sales license issuance service, which was launched to enable real estate developers to sell real estate units before or during the construction phase (under construction) through an integrated electronic platform that enables beneficiaries to issue licenses without the need to visit the Wafi program headquarters, where the Wafi platform aims to facilitate and reduce the time of beneficiaries, which achieves the ministry's objectives and strategy, which is in line with the Kingdom Vision 2030, to support supply and enable demand, raise the rate of housing ownership and facilitate access to it with various options and high quality at an affordable price.

Wafi's platform aims to facilitate the sale of off-plan sales licenses. Nayef Al-Sharif, Secretary General of the Off-Map Sale Program, said that the service will enable real estate developers nominated to implement the Ministry of Housing projects to apply online on the platform and obtain an off-plan sale license after marketing and booking 50% or more units of the project to be licensed for early off-plan sale.
