Sumou Real Estate Company has entered into an agreement with Kingdom Real Estate Development to manage land plots in Riyadh, focusing on both residential and commercial segments. The company will oversee infrastructure development, along with marketing and sales activities. As part of the arrangement, Sumou will earn fees linked to the project's infrastructure costs and total sales value. The agreement reflects the company's continued role in large-scale land development projects and highlights growing activity in Riyadh's real estate market, supported by urban expansion and demand for integrated developments.
Sumou Real Estate Company announced that it has signed an agreement with Kingdom Real Estate Development for land plots in Riyadh, covering both residential and commercial use.
Under the terms of the agreement, Sumou will be responsible for managing infrastructure development, as well as handling marketing and sales for the project. The company stated that its role will include overseeing the planning and execution of infrastructure works while also driving sales strategies for the development.
The financial structure of the agreement is linked to both development and sales performance. Sumou will receive a fee equivalent to 6.5 per cent of the total infrastructure development costs. In addition, it will earn 2.5 per cent of the total project sales as compensation for its marketing and sales management services.
The company further indicated that the marketing and sales management fees will be calculated based on actual project sales, aligning its earnings with the overall performance of the development. This model is commonly used in large-scale land development projects to ensure shared incentives between developers and project managers.
Riyadh has seen increased real estate activity in recent years, supported by government-led initiatives to expand urban infrastructure and housing supply under broader economic diversification plans. Partnerships such as this are part of a wider trend where specialised developers and managers collaborate to deliver integrated land projects more efficiently.
Sumou Real Estate has previously been involved in similar agreements, focusing on infrastructure-led land development and monetisation strategies, which help unlock value from large land parcels while supporting urban growth.
