Al-Qattan pointed out that Kuwaiti investors\' interest in Saudi real estate market has grown remarkably during the last quarter of 2010 and the first quarter of 2011, which reflects the expanding and profitability nature of this sector, particularly following the recent royal decrees on pumping billions of riyals for supporting this sector. He added that the Saudi decision to exclude Gulf investors from the ban on possessing buildings in the Kingdom would help attract Gulf investments estimated, by economists, at SR 13 billion, including SR 7 billion in the Eastern region, this year.
