He pointed out that poorly manufactured construction materials affect the quality of the property, and cannot be relied upon for warranties or insurance. Al-Zahrani noted that specifications do not necessarily have to be expensive, as the materials used in construction can be evaluated based on several factors, including specifications and installation methods.<\/p>\n<p>Al-Zahrani explained that the implementation of <a href=\"https:\/\/sbc.gov.sa\/ar\/Pages\/default.aspx\">Saudi Building Code<\/a> It will improve building standards, and its impact will be limited to poor-quality materials, thereby reducing demand for them; naturally, the quality of building materials will positively affect the sustainability and durability of the property, At the same time, the changes that have occurred in the real estate sector will reduce opportunities for commercial fraud. I would like to point out that commercial fraud in construction is not limited to materials alone, but also extends to the method of installation (for example, purchasing a high-quality material, but then installing it in a manner that is structurally and technically incorrect).<\/p>\n<p>Al-Zahrani concluded his remarks by stating that sustainability in the market depends on adherence to standards and specifications and the implementation of the Saudi Code, and that the quality of work must take precedence over any profits. .<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>Al-Mutairi: Building Insurance for Both Parties<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>For his part, Fahad Saad Al-Mutairi, a real estate investor, emphasized that the Saudi Building Code will benefit everyone\u2014both investors and buyers\u2014especially with the use of high-quality materials that meet the code\u2019s requirements. Al-Mutairi noted that quality will have a clear impact on pricing and that those seeking to build high-quality private residences will benefit from products that meet standard specifications.<\/p>\n<p>Al-Mutairi pointed out that rising prices for construction materials are having a negative impact on rapid construction for low-income individuals and investors alike, alluding to the additional production costs incurred in real estate, emphasizing the importance of securing buildings for both parties while clarifying the prices of consumable materials such as electrical and plumbing supplies, interior and exterior insulation, and other construction essentials, He noted that the regulations and rules enacted by the competent authorities will reduce the prevalence of commercial fraud in all its forms, and that the market will accept only high-quality products.<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #800000;\">Al-Mohsen: No significant impact on demand<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>As for Saleh Al-Mohsen, of Khalid Al-Mohsen Contracting Company, believes that there has been no significant impact on the demand for building materials following the implementation of the Saudi Building Code, emphasizing that the quality of building materials is one of the fundamental factors that ensure a building\u2019s sustainability and structural integrity and preserve its market value.<\/p>\n<p>Al-Mohsen expressed his regret that building codes do not scrutinize the specifications of construction materials; however, there are many factors that have led to the enactment of legislation designed to preserve a property\u2019s value, He explained that high-quality materials will remain on the market, while the supply of poor-quality materials will decrease.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">Reading
