Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 aims to reduce the reliance on oil economy will provide opportunities for new developments in the tourism, entertainment and retail real estate.
The Public Investment Fund (PIF) has been tasked to invest in companies and develop a series of "Giga Projects” for boosting the non-oil sector.
Development of transport infrastructure such as 6 lines of Riyadh Metro, upgrading of King Abdulaziz International Airport, Jeddah and others will improve the connectivity in the country.
Rising GDP Contribution from Real Estate as per Vision 2030: Vision 2030 considers Real Estate industry as an important factor for development. Government has launched several initiatives for increasing home ownership under vision 2030. In 2018, the maximum loan-to-value mortgage rate has increased across Saudi Arabia; this resulted in applicants able to raise 90% of a property's value through a mortgage which was previously limited to 85%. This move was made with aim of increasing the value of mortgage market to USD 134 billion by 2020 which was valued to be USD 80 billion in 2018. Another aim of government is to reduce the average ratio between house price and per capita income to five times and increase the percentage of home ownership among Saudi citizens to 60% by 2020. As per the National Transformation Plan, government aims to raise real estate’s contribution to GDP from 5% in 2016 to 10% in 2020. By 2030, its ambition is to see nationwide home ownership levels at 70%.
Construction of Giga Projects: As per Vision 2030 initiative Saudi Arabia has undertaken development of several giga projects. Qiddiya Project is one such project. It will encompass entertainment, sports and cultural attractions within an area of approximately 100 Sq Km and will be world’s largest entertainment city. By 2030, the number of annual visitors to Qiddiya is expected to reach 17 million in the entertainment sector, 12 million in the shopping sector and 2 million in the hospitality sector. Another project is Red Sea Project which is a tourism destination encompassing 50 islands and will be developed in partnership with leading hotel operators. Amaala Project is another such project. The project aims to be the Riviera of the Middle East, featuring a range of hotels, private villas, retail and cultural offerings.
Growth in Tourism Sector will Boost the Demand for Hotels: The Saudi Tourism sector contributed SAR 88.2 billion in GDP in 2017, which grew by 8.2% from 2016. It is expected this will increase to SAR 138 billion by 2023 with an average growth of 7.0%. International arrivals to the Kingdom are expected to increase from 17.7 million in 2018 to 23.3 million by 2023 showing a growth of 5.6% per year. Religious tourism will continue to be the biggest contributor with a goal of 30 million pilgrims to the Kingdom by 2030, an increase of 11 million from the 19 million Hajj and Umrah pilgrims that visited the country in 2017. Leisure tourism will also gain traction with various projects and initiatives under the Vision 2030 reform plan. Domestic tourists were about 47 million in 2018 which is expected to exceed to 70.5 million by 2023, thus showcasing a sharp growth in the local tourism. This will drive up competition in the country’s hotel scene, with projected growth in domestic and international visitors set to boost occupancy levels.
