Owning to these changes, a significant number of young individuals move from rural areas to urban centres in search of job prospects. As a result, it is anticipated that 100,000 new homes will be constructed in Riyadh, the capital of the Kingdom, by the end of 2023.

This funding will enable the establishment of 1.3 million housing units. This real estate boom in Saudi Arabia has affected property prices in Riyadh.
