Ghanem has launched fractional ownership of real estate in Saudi Arabia under the regulatory sandbox of the Real Estate General Authority (REGA), marking a step towards expanding access to regulated real estate investment in the Kingdom.

The platform enables eligible Saudi investors to own officially registered fractional shares in income-generating real estate assets through a fully digital process. Ghanem is integrated with the Real Estate Registry, ensuring ownership is recorded transparently in the official registry and in line with regulatory requirements and investor protection standards.

The initiative aligns with REGA’s objective of supporting innovation while maintaining strong governance, compliance and market integrity.

Commenting on the launch, Saleh Waheed Al-Ghamdi, CEO of Ghanem, said: “Launching fractional ownership under the REGA Sandbox is a major milestone for Ghanem and the Saudi real estate sector. Our full integration with the Real Estate Registry allows us to deliver a transparent, secure, and fully regulated investment experience.”

The product will be rolled out in phases within the sandbox environment, enabling controlled testing under regulatory oversight ahead of wider market deployment.
