Amid the urban development boom in Saudi Arabia, private-sector buyers are set to invest 4.58 billion riyals ($1.22 billion) in The Residential Real Estate Market<\/a><\/strong> This year, they are prepared to pay high price premiums to secure units in large-scale projects, according to the \u201cSaudi Arabia 2025\u201d report issued by Knight Frank, a real estate consulting firm. This trend reflects a shift in buyers\u2019 priorities, as these iconic projects have become an attractive option for those seeking properties with high investment and living value.<\/p>\n

Billions of riyals spent on residential real estate<\/span><\/h4>\n

A survey conducted by Knight Frank<\/a> <\/strong>Conducted in partnership with YouGov and involving 1,037 Saudi households and 100 residents, the survey found that buyers plan to spend 1.83 billion riyals (489 million dollars) on residential real estate across the Kingdom, while 2.75 billion riyals (733 million dollars) have been earmarked for investment in mega-projects. The data indicates that Saudis hold the largest share of capital ready for investment in these projects, with a total of 2.6 billion riyals earmarked for spending, compared to 133.7 million riyals from residents.<\/p>\n

Large-scale projects attract investors<\/span><\/h4>\n

Although 42% of the survey participants set their budget ceiling at 1.5 million riyals for purchasing a home outside of major developments, many of them expressed a willingness to spend even more to live in one of these ambitious projects. The results revealed that 20% of the participants were willing to pay more than 4.5 million riyals for a home in a large-scale development, reflecting the high demand for residential units in these areas.<\/p>\n

The report also showed that the average budget allocated for homes within large-scale projects is 3 million riyals, compared to 2.2 million riyals for homes outside these projects, reflecting the significant difference in market value between the two categories. Saudis with monthly incomes exceeding 50,000 riyals are the most likely to invest in this sector, with an average budget of 5.2 million riyals to purchase a home in one of the major projects.<\/p>\n

A notable disparity in spending patterns among income groups<\/span><\/h4>\n

Despite widespread interest in mega-projects, the data revealed divergent spending trends among high-income groups. While 55% of Saudis earning between 60,000 and 70,000 riyals per month indicated they were unwilling to spend more than 750,000 riyals on a home in a mega-project, 41% of Saudis earning more than 80,000 riyals per month plan to spend more than 20 million riyals to purchase a home in these projects, reflecting differing investment priorities among the upper income brackets.<\/p>\n

Warnings About an Oversupply of Luxury Real Estate<\/span><\/h4>\n

Despite these encouraging signs, Harmen de Jong, Regional Partner and Head of Strategy and Consulting at Knight Frank Saudi Arabia, warned of the possibility of an oversupply of luxury homes, given the limited number of people able to purchase such properties. He emphasized the importance of attracting new segments of buyers, both from within the Kingdom and abroad, to ensure the market remains balanced.<\/p>\n

De Jong highlighted the challenges faced by real estate developers in implementing their ambitious plans, which include 1.04 million residential units, more than 7.7 million square meters of office space, in addition to 7.4 million square meters of retail space and 362,000 hotel rooms. He emphasized that these projects place significant strain on resources, including skilled and unskilled labor, the availability of raw materials, and the rapidly rising cost of land.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
