كثر الحديث مؤخراً عن السجل العقاري ومستقبل القطاع العقاري معه، وتعددت التوقعات حول أثره، فكل متحدث تناول الموضوع من زاوية خبرته وفهمه. إلا أن السجل العقاري يُعد في جوهره أحد الأعمدة الأساسية التي تقوم عليها البنية التحتية الاقتصادية والتنظيمية في أي دولة تسعى إلى النمو المستدام والتحول الرقمي.
وفي المملكة العربية السعودية، يمثِّل السجل العقاري خطوة إستراتيجية ضمن جهود تطوير القطاع العقاري وتحقيق مستهدفات رؤية المملكة 2030، التي تهدف إلى تنويع الاقتصاد، وتحفيز الاستثمارات، وتعزيز جودة الحياة.
السجل العقاري هو نظام موحد ومحدث إلكترونياً لتوثيق جميع العقارات في المملكة، ويشمل بيانات الملكية والموقع والمساحة والحدود، إضافة إلى الحقوق المرتبطة بها مثل الرهن أو الوقف. ويُعد مرجعاً قانونياً معتمداً لحفظ الحقوق وتسهيل المعاملات.
وعلى خلاف ما يظنه البعض، فإن السجل العقاري لن يقتصر على التوثيق فحسب، بل سيسهم في الحد من النزاعات العقارية، ويمنح المواطنين ثقة أكبر عند البيع أو الشراء أو التأجير.
وقد يتساءل البعض عن ضرورة وجود السجل العقاري، وعن العائد والفائدة منه للمواطن. ومن خلال لقائي مع الرئيس التنفيذي للسجل العقاري الدكتور محمد السليمان وفريق العمل، يمكنني التأكيد على أن السجل يتيح للمواطنين الوصول بسهولة إلى معلومات عقاراتهم وتحديث بياناتهم عبر منصة رقمية موحدة، مما يعزز الشفافية ويمنع الاحتيال العقاري.
كما يُسهم النظام في تسهيل المعاملات العقارية مثل نقل الملكية أو الرهن أو إصدار الصكوك، الأمر الذي يقلل من الوقت والجهد والتكلفة.
وقد لاحظت في منصات التواصل الاجتماعي عدم استيعاب كافٍ لأثر السجل العقاري في السوق، إلا أن الحقيقة أن هذا السجل سيحدث نقلة نوعية في تنظيم السوق العقاري، من خلال وضوح البيانات وجاذبية البيئة الاستثمارية. فهو سيُسهم في رفع كفاءة السوق وتوازنه، وتمكين الاستثمار والتمويل العقاري عبر توثيق الملكيات، مما يسهل استخدام العقارات كضمان للحصول على تمويل.
كما سيعمل السجل العقاري على الحد من العشوائية والتعديات وتزوير الصكوك، لتصبح البيئة أكثر أماناً وثقة للمتعاملين، عبر منصة رقمية تربط جميع الجهات ذات العلاقة.
إن السجل العقاري ليس مجرد مشروع إداري، بل هو محرك اقتصادي يرفع من كفاءة السوق ويدعم برامج الإسكان من خلال تسهيل إجراءات التملك، بما يسهم في رفع نسبة التملك السكني إلى 70% بحلول عام 2030.
ختاماً.. السجل العقاري ليس مجرد أداة لتوثيق الأملاك، بل هو محرك تنموي يعزز ثقة المواطن، ويحفز السوق العقاري، ويدعم التحول الاقتصادي المستدام.
إنه بيئة عقارية رقمية، عادلة، وشفافة تُسهم في ازدهار الإنسان والمكان، وتُرسخ مكانة المملكة كمركز إقليمي رائد في الاستثمار العقاري والتنمية الوطنية.

There has been much discussion recently about the real estate registry and the future of the real estate sector, with various predictions about its impact. Each speaker has approached the topic from their own perspective and understanding. However, the real estate registry is essentially one of the fundamental pillars upon which the economic and regulatory infrastructure of any country seeking sustainable growth and digital transformation is built.
In the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the real estate registry represents a strategic step within the efforts to develop the real estate sector and achieve the objectives of Vision 2030, which aims to diversify the economy, stimulate investments, and enhance the quality of life.
The real estate registry is a unified and electronically updated system for documenting all properties in the Kingdom, including ownership data, location, area, and boundaries, in addition to associated rights such as mortgages or endowments. It serves as an official legal reference for preserving rights and facilitating transactions.
Contrary to what some may think, the real estate registry will not be limited to documentation alone; it will also help reduce real estate disputes and provide citizens with greater confidence when buying, selling, or renting.
Some may wonder about the necessity of having a real estate registry and the return and benefit it provides to citizens. From my meeting with the CEO of the real estate registry, Dr. Mohammed Al-Sulaiman, and his team, I can confirm that the registry allows citizens to easily access information about their properties and update their data through a unified digital platform, enhancing transparency and preventing real estate fraud.
The system also facilitates real estate transactions such as transferring ownership, mortgages, or issuing deeds, which reduces time, effort, and cost.
I have noticed on social media platforms a lack of adequate understanding of the impact of the real estate registry on the market. However, the truth is that this registry will bring about a qualitative shift in organizing the real estate market through clear data and an attractive investment environment. It will contribute to increasing market efficiency and balance, enabling real estate investment and financing through the documentation of ownership, making it easier to use properties as collateral for obtaining financing.
The real estate registry will also work to reduce randomness, encroachments, and forgery of deeds, creating a safer and more trustworthy environment for stakeholders through a digital platform that connects all relevant entities.
The real estate registry is not just an administrative project; it is an economic engine that enhances market efficiency and supports housing programs by facilitating ownership procedures, contributing to raising the home ownership rate to 70% by 2030.
In conclusion, the real estate registry is not merely a tool for documenting properties; it is a developmental engine that enhances citizen trust, stimulates the real estate market, and supports sustainable economic transformation.
It is a digital real estate environment that is fair and transparent, contributing to the prosperity of individuals and places, and solidifying the Kingdom's position as a leading regional hub for real estate investment and national development.
