What TATHMEEN Does for Property Owners

The programme aims to use smart technologies to provide more advanced and reliable indicative estimates of property values.

During the forum, the Real Estate Brokerage Department is holding information sessions on brokerage procedures, raising awareness of the Real Estate Brokerage Law and explaining how to verify that companies are licensed to practice the profession.
