The residential sector is one of the most important sectors.
Spending on housing is the highest
. <According to a study by Umm Al-Qura University, the biggest impact Hajj appears in the real estate sector, especially since some studies indicate that what is spent on the housing sector accounts for 30-40% of the total budget of the pilgrim, which means that the housing sector has the lion's share of spending on Hajj. This spending has recently reflected on the activity of the real estate sector in Makkah, especially in light of the limited supply of real estate products.1.8 million visitors to Medina
