Market Analysis

Neutral data reading

A description of what the data shows, with no buy or sell recommendation.

Price tier

Price level: high. A square metre in Ar Riyadh costs 2,630 SAR — the median of 51 residential transactions over the last 12 months. That is about 5.4× the city districts average (490 SAR), placing the district 1st of 24 by price per square metre.

Value trend

Value trend: rising. The price per square metre rose 15% a year between 2021 and 2025 — that is a total rise of about 77% over 4 years. 2026 data is still partial and is excluded from the calculation. The reading is current to the last valid transaction on 2026-06-15.

Market activity

Market activity: high. The district has seen 264 transactions since 2021, averaging about 50 a year and peaking at 66 in 2021 — the 7th of 24 by trading volume. Recent months' transactions arrive late from the Ministry of Justice, so their count rises later.
