How property is marketed in Saudi Arabia

Real estate digital marketing in Saudi Arabia runs under closer rules than most sectors. Property advertising needs a licence from the Real Estate General Authority (REGA), each ad must show its licence number, and the advertiser has to be the owner, an authorised representative or a licensed broker. REGA approved new marketing and advertising regulations in 2026 that apply across social media, online platforms, print and billboards, and they ban misleading or exaggerated descriptions. Off-plan projects are marketed under licences from Wafi, the REGA programme for off-plan sales.

Buyers research for weeks across listing portals, Instagram, Snapchat and WhatsApp before they visit a sales centre. The lead that arrives at 11pm on a Thursday is often the buyer who was ready. Speed of follow-up and a clear record of every conversation matter as much as the ad that produced it.

What we focus on first

The Discover stage for a developer or brokerage usually covers four things.

  • Compliance of current ads

    We check that live campaigns carry licence numbers and the property details the rules require, and we flag anything to raise with your legal adviser.

  • Lead path from ad to sales team

    We trace what happens after a form or WhatsApp click: who receives the lead, how fast, and whether the CRM records which campaign it came from.

  • Project pages in Arabic and English

    We review whether each project page answers buyer questions on location, payment plan, handover date and unit types in both languages, and loads fast on a phone.

  • Cost per qualified lead

    We separate enquiries that reach a viewing from the ones that never answer, so budget moves towards the channels that produce viewings.

How the five stages apply to a property launch

In Strategize we set the audience for each project (local buyers, investors, expatriate residents or overseas buyers), the channel mix and the budget per phase of the launch. In Build we deliver bilingual project pages, tracking from ad to CRM, and campaign set-up on Google, Meta, Snapchat and TikTok. In Optimize we review cost per viewing each week during launch. In Grow we reuse what worked on the next phase or project.

For European developers selling to Gulf buyers, or Gulf developers marketing in Europe, we also handle the language and market work through our Europe expansion and Saudi market entry offers.

Services that apply

Questions developers and brokers ask

Do you obtain the REGA advertising licence for us?

No. The licence is issued to the owner, authorised representative or licensed broker, so it stays with you. We make sure campaigns display the licence number and the required property details, and we recommend a legal review of ad copy where there is any doubt.

Which channels work best for property in Saudi Arabia?

It depends on the project and buyer. Search captures people already looking for a district or unit type, while Snapchat, Instagram and TikTok build interest for launches. We test channels in the first weeks and move budget based on cost per viewing, not cost per click.

Can you connect our ads to our CRM?

Yes. We set up tracking so each lead carries its source into your CRM, and we can help select a CRM if you do not have one. That lets your sales team see which campaigns produce reservations.

Do you market off-plan projects?

Yes, once the project holds the licences it needs to be marketed. We plan the campaign around the launch phases and make sure ads reflect the licensed details accurately.

Can you reach buyers outside Saudi Arabia?

Yes. We work natively in Arabic, English, German, Spanish and French, so we can run campaigns for overseas buyers in their own language. Check with your legal adviser which licences cover marketing outside the Kingdom.
