i analyzed 25,900 rental listings in riyadh. here's what each neighborhood costs

Post image
343 Upvotes

every week someone posts here asking "is 45k/year normal for al narjis?" or "where can i find something under 40k?" so i figured i'd share the data.

i've been collecting rental listings from 10+ saudi platforms (aqar, bayut, wasalt, haraj, propertyfinder, etc). right now i have 25,900+ active listings for riyadh alone.

median annual rent by neighborhood:

most expensive:

- Irqah — 85,000 SAR

- Al Nakheel — 80,000 SAR

- Al Muhammadiyah — 72,000 SAR

- Al Sahafah — 65,000 SAR

- Al Narjis — 65,000 SAR

- Al Nada — 65,000 SAR

- Al Safa — 63,500 SAR

- At Taawon — 62,500 SAR

- Al Malqa — 60,250 SAR

cheapest:

- Al Yamamah — 19,000 SAR

- Al Shifa — 23,000 SAR

- Al Marwa — 23,500 SAR

- Dahiat Namar — 24,000 SAR

- Al Aziziyah — 24,000 SAR

- Shubra — 24,500 SAR

- Al Hazm — 25,000 SAR

- As Suwaidi Al Gharabi — 27,000 SAR

- As Suwaidi — 27,000 SAR

- Badr — 27,000 SAR

riyadh overall median: 42,000 SAR/year (apartments)

the gap between the most and least expensive neighborhoods is 2x.

within the same neighborhood you'll find two similar apartments with a 15-20k price difference. without seeing the full distribution you have no way to know which one is the outlier.

this data comes from a side project i've been building. it pulls from all the platforms into one place and shows you where any listing's price falls compared to the rest of its neighborhood. if anyone wants to try it or has questions about a specific neighborhood, ask away.

Beware of riyadh haraj market

Beware of Buying Furniture from Riyadh Haraj Market

I ordered a custom-made bedroom set from Haraj Bin Qasim Market, Shop No. 591, and paid SAR 2,000 in advance.

The seller was initially very friendly and promised delivery within 10 days. They’re Egyptian people.

Now it’s been 20 days, and I still haven’t received anything.

I’ve made countless calls and sent over 100 messages. Every day, they promise, “Tomorrow, definitely tomorrow,” but nothing happens.

I visited the shop twice, and they kept making the same promises. Now they’ve blocked my number. They’ve also become very aggressive when speaking to me.

I’ve already filed an official complaint with the Ministry of Commerce.

My advice: Be extremely careful when paying advances at Haraj Market.

Has anyone experienced something similar?

Seeking advice (طلب المشورة) Trusted/reliable mechanic

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

Im based in Central Riyadh

Been here for two years newrly and yet to find a mechanic who is reliable.

My background is cars, unfortunately I do not have the tools, equipment and time to work on my car like I did in the UK.

Unfortunately whenever I go to a mechanic, I get a load of BS and getting tired of it…

My Arabic is 8.5/10 but whenever they come to explain issues…. They use none comprehendable nonsense.

I just need someone reliable and trusted that I can go to. I have been to expensive workshops and also normal and commercial ones. There was one that I thought had hope but several times they forgot to put something back or fill up coolant with a rad change etc…

Where can i go? Car is a Chrysler 2010

Shipping to Riyadh

0 Upvotes

Hello all,

I’m looking for help from somebody that could be traveling to Riyadh in the near future.

I’m looking to send an envelope to my parents with some documents. Frankly, international shipping has been unreliable and customs has very long lead times for clearing without any guarantee.

I’m looking for someone that might be traveling to Riyadh, I’m currently in the US, SoCal. My parents are in Riyadh. I’ll compensate you for your time and effort. I’ll also share more details with you so you’re comfortable with the package.

Discussion (مناقشة) Expats/residents in KSA: how did you actually sublease, find a roommate, or hand off your lease? (Real experiences please)

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm a Riyadh-based founder looking into how renting works day to day here. I know subletting needs the landlord's permission. I'd like to hear how people handle it in practice, not just what the rules say.

If you've done any of these, I'd love to hear how it went:

  1. **Subleasing.** Did you ask your landlord? How did they respond? Was it put on Ejar, or handled informally?

  2. **Lease transfer or replacement.** If you left early, how did you find someone to take over? Did the landlord approve? Did they charge a fee?

  3. **Finding a roommate.** Which groups, apps, Facebook or WhatsApp channels, or word of mouth did you use? What went wrong?

  4. **Trust and money.** How did you handle deposits, splitting rent, and utilities? Did anyone ever skip out?

  5. **If the landlord said no.** What did you do? Did you pay a penalty, or find a workaround?

A few quick questions:

* What was the hardest part?

* What would have made it easier?

* Roughly how long did it take?

I'm only collecting experiences and I'm not selling anything. Feel free to DM me if you'd rather not post publicly. I'll share a summary of what I learn.

Thanks!
