Parliament Approves 27 Articles of Real Estate Law
The House of Representatives approved 27 articles of the proposed amendments to the Real Estate Law of 2026, with discussions on the remaining articles to continue at a later time. The amendments primarily relate to allowing non-Jordanian individuals to own lands outside designated zones for residential purposes, on plots not exceeding 10 dunams, while maintaining existing restrictions in prohibited areas such as border zones and archaeological sites. The aim of the amendment is to encourage non-Jordanians to own and reside in housing units within Jordan, by streamlining administrative procedures and protecting agricultural lands, particularly in rural areas like Jerash and Ajloun. Officials emphasize that these modifications balance stimulating residential investment with safeguarding agricultural properties.
