Riyadh Royal Commission opens real estate balance program applications until September 2026

Applicants for the second year of the Real Estate Balance Program in Riyadh can now submit their applications online until September 15, 2026. The Royal Commission for Riyadh City has commenced accepting applications via its official online platform, with the registration period extending to Tuesday, September 15, 2026. The commission announced the availability of the program through a post on its X account, urging interested citizens to apply online and confirm their eligibility.

Eligibility criteria for the program encompass being a Saudi national, being at least 25 years old or married, having no prior property ownership, and residing in Riyadh for a minimum of three years. The commission assured that registration is open to all eligible applicants throughout the application period, with no priority granted based on the order of registration. All applications will undergo electronic verification in accordance with established regulations.

Following the verification process, the program will progress through stages including eligibility confirmation, result announcements, addressing objections, conducting an electronic draw among eligible applicants, and concluding ownership procedures. The commission emphasized that applicants who applied in the first year and obtained entitlement do not need to reapply, as their information is already stored on the platform.

Conversely, those who were not deemed eligible during the previous year must reapply after fulfilling the requisite requirements.

The Real Estate Balance Program is part of the commission's initiatives to promote equilibrium in Riyadh's housing market and empower eligible citizens to acquire planned residential land at reasonable prices through structured and transparent electronic procedures.
