02When is handover at Novotel Residences Makkah?
The project is complete and ready to move into.
03Can a Pakistani, or anyone who is not Saudi, buy here?
Yes, if the buyer is Muslim. Under the ownership law in force since January 2026, Muslim non-Saudis, resident or not, can own residential property inside the designated zones of Makkah, and Thakher Makkah is one of them. The developer's own material says the units are open to non-Saudis. We confirm your eligibility certificate route before you pay anything.
04What does a unit cost, and what are the discounts?
The developer's list prices the 28 available two-bedroom apartments from SAR 2,555,000 to 3,165,000 by floor and view. It takes 5% off on its 18-month payment plan and 10% off for payment in cash. Government fees come on top: the 5% real estate transaction tax and the non-Saudi ownership fee. We send the current list and the exact total for the unit you choose.
05How does the 18-month plan work?
You pay the price in instalments over 18 months from signing, and the unit is already built, so there is no construction risk. The developer sets the booking amount and the instalment dates in the sale contract; we send the schedule with the price list.
06Is this a home or a hotel apartment?
It is a residential unit you own, in a tower run as a Novotel Residences by Accor. The reception, housekeeping, restaurant, pool and gym come with the building. How you use it — your own stays, letting it through the operator, or both — and the service charges are set out in the developer's contract, which we send you before you reserve.
07Can I buy from Pakistan without travelling?
Reservation and contract can be handled remotely with the developer's sales team, and the eligibility certificate is applied for online. Title registration needs a Saudi digital ID, bank account and mobile number, which we help you set up. A visit to choose the floor and view is worth making; the apartments are finished, so you see exactly what you buy.
08What does RPRE charge me?
Nothing. We are paid by the developer on completion of the sale; you pay the developer's published price.
