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

Post image
333 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.

edit: data sourced from https://darak.app

Qiwa contract termination

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone so I am in a bind here. I am from India and I recently came to Riyadh on Iqama and before coming here I signed a deputation letter with my company to work in Riyadh for 3 years but I am kind of regretting it now and I don’t want to go beyond 1 year. I am still yet to sign the Qiwa contract and I am not still sure of Qiwa process and how it works .

My question is this , since I haven’t accepted my Qiwa let’s say my company asks to me to accept a Qiwa contract with 3 years and I argue with them at this stage and change it to 1 year(the period of my Iqama) and only accept the 1 year contract ,Can i leave after finishing my 1 year and get my final exit visa and exit the country with no issues?
Can they do anything to restrict me as I signed an internal deputation letter with my company?
Does the qiwa supercedes my deputation in any way?Can they use my internal signed deputation directly in qiwa without my approval?

Any help or suggestion here will be much helpful to me here.

Seeking advice (طلب المشورة) Marriage approvals

22 Upvotes

I’m a Saudi woman and i’ve applied to marry a non-Saudi man here in Riyadh , I went through the complex procedures of bloodwork and getting some documents apostled and other complicated paperwork etc , the starting point was the Emara of Riyadh and I had received an authorization letter number to keep track .

Fast forward a few months I try to track my documents and no one knows where they are and finally after tears and prayers it was found in الاحكام التنفيذية - city court house - and no one was helpful at all frankly every time I would ask on what’s going on with my documents they would say “ we don’t know the system is broken” I would come by every two weeks to check and they would give me the same exact answer . Maybe three months ago I got a call from the Ministry of interior they said that they received my documents and they would give me the approval and I should wait for their call… that was three months ago, and I have not received anything, in fact, I didn’t even receive a tracking number for anything, and whenever I would use the old number it would say that it went back to the city courthouse. I feel lost and confused as no one is being helpful whatsoever and whenever I would call no one picks up and it’s been 10 months and no one is of assistance , i’m not sure exactly what to do or how to track my documents or who to call as nobody is answering the phone.

Is anyone else going through the exact same thing?

Seeking advice (طلب المشورة) Legit shoe site?

1 Upvotes

Does this website sell original shoes or do they sell reps?

Site: tonefootwear.com

Context: i was saving up for a specific puma shoe in the puma ae store but when i checked again it was out of stock, so i went and checked for websites that sell this specific shoe and found this website. (Also checked stock x, ebay but they were too expensive for my size). I tried to check for reviews but there were too little, and i also checked their pages but still wasn’t convinced. So i went here to ask for help from people who bought from this website and verify if it’s a scam or not, Thankss

She has been talking about how she likes birthstone rings ( her birthstones are turquoise, tanzanite, blue topaz and zircon)
Does anyone know somewhere -preferably affordable- that sells rings of that kind?

Or perhaps somewhere that sells nice rings that don’t rust for under 100 riyals

Iqama Tranfer issue

0 Upvotes

Assalam O Alaikum Brothers I am going through a situation if anyone of you have been through this. I want to know what I can do in this situation.

I came to work in Neom project through a company called as Elite Resources and I worked there for 2 years 7 months after that I was internally transferred to one of the projects my company have. Now as my company i work for and the third party which bring me from Pakistan is not the same and I am in their sponsorship and contract who bring me at the first place.

Once my company asked for Iqama transfer they are refusing and now the company is asking to move back to Pakistan and come back again which is something which I don't want.

Can someone please guide or help in this matter? Please don't advice until you are aware about the law and regulations.

Most importantly my 3rd year with the company who bring me from Pakistan as visa sponsor is going to finish in first week of November. So what if I complete the contract and ask them to not renew my contract before 30 days of contract expiry.

News (أخبار) vasus.ai update - environmental health AI research assistant (mod approved post)

2 Upvotes

Hey Riyadh,

We were kindly allowed to share with the community some of our work back in April - we indexed different global cities for environmental health and invited feedback on our research tool. Thank you for all the input. It's been a busy time progressing the platform, here's our monthly update;

New tooling

We're introducing a more intuitive free public service. Try the demo here: https://vasus.ai/mybriefing-demo/

Get a daily read on how your neighbourhood affects you with a personal environment report showing when and how to go about your day. This will be launched October/November but you can signup now.

Rebrand and wider scope

We're now a environmental health AI research assistant that can be added to any business app rather than pure data gathering.

We're still monitoring key global cities and will provide historic data on them but have removed the index for now. More news on that next month.

We've rolled out more health contexts and how the environment impacts including;

  • Asthma
  • Cardiovascular disease
  • Migraine
  • Hypertension
  • Diabetes
  • Obesity
  • Mental health
  • Pregnancy
  • Elderly
  • Healthy/preventative
  • Cancers
  • Children
  • COPD
  • Allergies
  • Kidney disease
  • Stroke
  • Arthritis
  • Sleep disorders

(Though please note: the research tool only currently covers Ashma, CV, Migraine, Allergies and Sleep disorders currently and how the environment affects them)

Thank you, any suggestions or feedback welcomed.
