The Real Estate Agency Agreement (Real Estate) is a crucial document used in Saudi Arabian real estate transactions to formalize the relationship between property owners and real estate agents/agencies. This agreement is essential when a property owner wishes to engage professional services for marketing, managing, or transacting their property. It must comply with Saudi Arabia's real estate regulations, including the Real Estate Broker Regulation and relevant Sharia law principles. The document typically includes detailed provisions on commission structures, marketing responsibilities, transaction handling, and regulatory compliance requirements. It's particularly important given Saudi Arabia's evolving real estate market and recent regulatory changes, including new broker licensing requirements and real estate transaction taxes. The agreement serves as both a legal protection mechanism and an operational framework for the agency relationship.
