Good to know

• Can foreigners buy property in Syria?

• What type of ownership is available — is it full freehold?

• How are payments secured — is there an escrow account?

  There is currently no escrow account; payments are made directly to the developer's bank account per the SPA, and the main contractor carries a Contractor's All Risks (CAR) insurance policy during construction.

• Can the unit be resold during construction?

  Yes, after at least 50% of the unit value has been paid, resale or assignment to another party is possible.

• What currency is used, and are there extra fees?

  USD only. A non-refundable administrative fee of USD 1,250 applies.

• Who is the developer?

  Invest Group Overseas (IGO), under MAG Group Holding — with a delivered track record including Nobles 101 in Damascus and residential towers across Dubai.

• Has the project's licence and building permit been approved?

  The project's regulatory/planning licence has been approved by Yaafour Municipality. The building permit is currently being finalised with the same authority.

• Is the title deed based on the total or the saleable area?

  The title deed reflects the unit's total (built-up) area, including the interior and balcony. The saleable area may also include the unit's proportional share of common areas such as corridors and stairs.

• How is the sale registered, and how are my rights guaranteed?

  Through a Sale & Purchase Agreement (SPA) that states the unit specifications, property number, and official building-permit details. On completion, ownership is formally transferred and a permanent title deed is issued by the competent government authority.

• Is any ownership document issued during construction?

  No preliminary ownership certificate is issued during the development phase. The buyer receives a fully signed copy of the SPA as proof of purchase until the title deed is issued on completion.

• What guarantees apply if the project is delayed or cancelled?

  All rights, compensation, and procedures relating to delay or cancellation are governed by the terms and conditions of the SPA.

• Can a single title deed have multiple owners?

  Yes — joint ownership is allowed. The SPA defines each owner's share, and the title deed shows all registered owners and their ownership percentages.

• Is there a discount for full cash payment?

  Full-cash-payment incentives, if any, are assessed separately on a case-by-case basis.

• What are the service charges, and who manages the community?

  Service charges will be set as the project nears completion. During the first year, Invest Group Overseas will manage the community to allow time to establish the Owners' Association, after which management transfers to that association.

• Does the project include retail or commercial spaces?

  Any commercial or retail units will be determined at a later stage.
