Riyadh Real Estate Indicators: How to Read Sales Count and Value
Read two figures together. Transaction count tells you how many sales were recorded in your selection. Total transaction value adds up those sales in Saudi riyals. To interpret Riyadh real estate indicators, check that both figures cover the same district, property type and dates.
What Do the Two Sales Indicators Measure?
Transaction count
The number of sales shown for your selection. Use it to see how many transactions took place within the chosen period.
Total transaction value
The combined value of those sales. Dividing this total by the transaction count gives the average value per sale for the same selection.
How to Read the Al Nadheem Residential Land Example
- Open Riyadh’s city dashboard on the REGA platform.
- In the most active neighbourhoods section, select residential land and set the range from Q4 2023 through Q3 2026.
- Find the Al Nadheem card. If you use the separate count and value charts, select the same district, property type and period in both charts where those options are available.

Why Can Total Sales Value Rise When Fewer Deals Close?
Higher-value deals can lift the total even when fewer properties sell. In a hypothetical example, five sales at SAR 1 million each total SAR 5 million. Four sales at SAR 2 million each total SAR 8 million. To compare activity across periods, keep the district and property type fixed and use periods of equal length.

Frequently Asked Questions About Riyadh Sales Data
Where can I find the sales count for a Riyadh district?
Open the Riyadh city dashboard and find the property sales count indicator. Use the available filters for district, property type and period.
Why do the figures change when I switch from land to apartments?
The property-type filter changes which sales are counted. The new figures describe apartment sales within the selected area and dates.
Can I use the total transaction value to estimate the price of one plot?
The total describes all sales in your selection. To assess an individual plot, start with comparable sales and check how their location, size and other characteristics compare with that plot.
How do I compare sales activity across two quarters?
Keep the district and property type fixed, then compare the count and combined value for the two quarters. Read each figure alongside the other to see whether changes came with more sales, higher combined value or both.
