The real estate industry in Saudi Arabia is now in a new phase of transparency as the Al Rajhi Construction Radar was opened by Al Rajhi Bank. Now, homebuyers are able to view the real time construction on their off-plan properties via satellite technology as of April 2026.
This technology eradicates guesses; an investor can have a visual feel about whether his or her building is actually being constructed as he/she was assured.
What is Al Rajhi Construction Radar?
The Al Rajhi Construction Radar is an electronic tracking system that is incorporated into other governmental systems such as Sakani and Balady. It integrates satellite data, analytics based on AI, and official project data to display real-time construction updates.
The Radar offers visual evidence of progress unlike the old style of project reports, which could lead to a lag in the project or misreporting until their mistake is discovered. It comes in handy particularly in case of off-plan consumers who finance with Al Rajhi Bank.
New standard of transparency to the homebuyers
Conventionally, customers used to be dependent on developer updates, brochures or periodic visits to the site. Nowadays with the adoption of satellite tracking in such platforms as Sakani and Balady, the latter has been transformed significantly.
The off-plan investments are now safer and data-based like never before since the users are able to skip me peeking in their property wherever they are in the world.
How to Track Your Property in 7 Steps?
Step 1: Log in to the Platform
To log in to the system, first use your National Single Sign-On (Nafath) credentials. The tracking feature is available to you through Sakani or Balady, or the Al Rajhi Construction Tracker portal on its own.
Upon signing in, go to the real estate or financing section with details of your project.
Step 2: Browse Your Project
Find your property by typing in the project ID of your purchase agreement or by using an interactive map.
The system can do accurate tracking in location whether you are investing in large scale development such as New Murabba or Jeddah central.
Step 3: Turn on Satellite View
Change to a satellite layer in order to see high-resolution images of the project site. These photos are refreshed on a 24-48 hour time frame, providing you with a close-to-real time view.
The timeline slider can also keep you updated on the progress of constructions per week or month and therefore, it is easy to prove development assertions.
Step 4: Evaluate the Efficiency Score
Projects have a live Efficiency Score depending on the progress of construction of the project.
With green score, it means that the project has been on schedule, amber that there are some slight delays and a red score that means that there are serious delays which can lead to regulatory review. This attribute enables customers to evaluate the health of the project in a short period of time without any technical knowledge.
Step 5: Monitor Building Progress
Some of the main construction phases that the platform identifies include foundation, building (structure) and closing phases.
This milestone tracking will enable buyers to know what was happening in the construction cycle with their property and whether it is in accordance with promised schedules.
Step 6: Cross-check External Tools
To further check, you may employ such tools as Google Earth or other GIS-based systems.
Utilizing satellite images compared to official updates by the Al Rajhi, buyers will be able to verify the information and remain always updated on their investment.
