As Saudi Arabia accelerates its Vision 2030 initiative to diversify its economy and embrace digital innovation, real estate tokenization has emerged as a transformative trend in the property sector. By leveraging blockchain technology, tokenization allows real estate assets to be divided into digital tokens, enabling fractional ownership, increased liquidity, and broader investor participation—both locally and globally.

While tokenization is still gaining traction in the region, several projects and initiatives in Saudi Arabia are already paving the way. In this blog, we highlight the top tokenized property projects to watch as the Kingdom positions itself at the forefront of PropTech and digital real estate.

1. NEOM: The Smart City of the Future

While NEOM itself isn't tokenized (yet), the $500 billion megacity under development offers immense potential for future tokenized property models. Given NEOM’s focus on AI, blockchain, and smart infrastructure, tokenizing commercial, residential, or hospitality assets within NEOM could be a future game-changer for global investors seeking early-stage access.

Why Watch NEOM?

  • High-tech infrastructure

  • Government-backed innovation

  • Potential use-case for tokenized leasing, co-investment, or REIT alternatives

2. Riyadh Tokenized Real Estate Pilot Projects

Several emerging real estate tech firms in Riyadh are exploring property tokenization pilots for luxury apartments, office buildings, and mixed-use developments. These early-stage initiatives aim to attract international investors by offering fractional ownership models, while remaining compliant with Saudi’s Capital Market Authority (CMA) regulations.

Key Features:

  • Regulated asset-backed tokens

  • Secure blockchain platforms

  • KYC/AML and Shariah-compliant structuring

  • Designed to increase investment in Riyadh’s fast-growing property market

3. Shariah-Compliant Tokenized REITs

To cater to local investors and align with Islamic finance principles, fintech companies are launching Shariah-compliant real estate token offerings. These projects tokenize income-generating properties such as shopping centers and hotels, and provide rental yields to token holders via secure smart contracts.

Why It Matters:

  • Aligns with Islamic investment ethics

  • Offers passive income streams

  • Ideal for both institutional and retail investors

4. Fractional Residential Property Platforms in Jeddah

PropTech startups based in Jeddah are experimenting with platforms that tokenize residential units (villas, apartments) in prime locations. These platforms are creating accessible investment pathways for young Saudi investors who want exposure to real estate without buying entire properties.

What to Expect:

  • User-friendly mobile apps

  • Token minimums as low as SAR 1,000

  • Secondary market trading on approved platforms

  • Strong government interest in digital financial inclusion

5. Upcoming Government-Backed Tokenization Projects

As part of Saudi Arabia's broader digital economy roadmap, government-linked entities are beginning to explore pilot programs for public sector land and real estate tokenization. These programs aim to enhance transparency in property transactions, reduce friction in land deals, and attract foreign direct investment (FDI).

Why It’s Groundbreaking:

  • First-of-its-kind national-level tokenization

  • Built-in legal and regulatory frameworks

  • Enhanced investor confidence via government participation

The Outlook for Tokenized Real Estate in Saudi Arabia

Tokenized property projects are no longer a concept of the future—they're becoming a strategic reality in Saudi Arabia. As blockchain regulation matures, and infrastructure like smart cities and AI integration grows, the Kingdom is positioned to become a regional hub for tokenized real estate investments.

Whether you're a real estate developer, blockchain entrepreneur, or global investor, now is the time to watch this space—and potentially participate in the evolution of digitized property ownership in Saudi Arabia.
