Saudi Arabia Commercial Real Estate Market Analysis

The Saudi Arabia Commercial Real Estate Market is expected to register a CAGR of 8.65% during the forecast period.

  • Saudi Arabia's real estate market has begun to show an overall improvement in business activity following a downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The government of Saudi Arabia, in response to the pandemic, is implementing various initiatives to contain the economic fallout and protect the Kingdom's economy.
  • The oil sector grew 9% year-on-year, while the non-oil economy expanded by 6.2%. The continued government spending on giga-projects, coupled with increasing developments in the entertainment sector, is likely to stimulate demand in the commercial real estate market in Saudi Arabia.
  • With conditions remaining soft across most of the commercial real estate sectors of the market in 2022, the hospitality industry witnessed several major development announcements. According to STR data, Saudi Arabia is leading the world in hotel supply growth.
  • As part of Vision 2030, the government has also launched international tourist e-visas in Saudi Arabia to boost tourism in the country and increase global competitiveness, which is set to positively impact the Kingdom's real estate market.
  • The office market, however, remained slightly under pressure across the major cities in Saudi Arabia. However, with the improving economic conditions in the country, it is expected that in the medium to long term, corporate demand will pick up as business conditions improve, owing to various new projects such as Riyadh's 176.7 km metro and Dammam's King Salman Energy Park (SPARK).
  • In addition, increased investment opportunities and the ease of travel stimulated by the new King Abdulaziz International Airport (KAIA) are also expected to positively affect commercial real estate expansion, especially in Riyadh, as it remains the primary business center of the western region.
