Property marketplace website development Dammam, for platforms that serve the whole metropolitan area of Dammam, Khobar and Dhahran. Codeeo builds marketplaces where licensed brokers pay to list homes, compound villas, offices, warehouses and industrial plots, where companies post what they need and brokers pay to respond, and where referral fees between brokers are tracked and settled. Checkout, company invoicing, commission ledgers and payouts are part of the build, Arabic first with English for the region's large professional workforce.
The Eastern Province property market leans on companies as much as families. A marketplace that earns well here sells to commercial brokers and corporate buyers, not just to people browsing apartments at the weekend. It also has to look trustworthy to newcomers who are choosing a home from abroad before they move.

Platform modules
In Dammam the most valuable searches are often not for a family flat. A logistics firm wants a warehouse near King Abdulaziz Port, a contractor needs housing for a project team in Khobar, an industrial buyer is looking at plots near the Second Industrial City. These buyers pay attention to technical details and expect invoices, purchase order numbers and a named contact. The modules below turn that demand into revenue for the platform while still serving residential buyers in Dammam, Khobar and Dhahran. We pick the mix with you in discovery and usually launch with the residential and commercial listing sides plus the requirement board, because that combination brings in both brokers and corporate buyers from the first week.
Companies post what they need, for example a warehouse of a certain size near the port or staff housing for a set number of people in Khobar. Verified brokers pay a fee or spend credit to submit matching properties, and the company compares proposals in one place instead of fielding calls from twenty agents.
Corporate demand becomes a product brokers will pay for.
A template built for logistics and industrial stock: covered area, yard space, clear height, power capacity, loading bays, civil defence status and distance to the port and main highways. Industrial listings carry their own fee table and their own search results layout.
Technical buyers get the data they need on the first page.
One search across Dammam, Khobar, Dhahran and Qatif, with district filters, a map view, compound or open neighbourhood, and travel time to the main employers and the King Fahd Causeway. Residents moving within the area and newcomers from abroad search the same way.
One platform covers the whole metropolitan market.
Brokerages buy a plan with a number of active listings and a number of agent seats, add agents as they hire, and pay extra for featured placement in industrial or office searches. Renewals, upgrades and seat changes are prorated automatically, and a lapsed plan pauses listings rather than deleting them, so a brokerage that renews late loses nothing.
Recurring revenue that grows as brokerages grow.
Corporate customers and larger brokerages pay by invoice with a purchase order reference, settled through SADAD or bank transfer, while smaller agents pay by mada, card or Apple Pay. Every charge produces a Fatoora compliant e-invoice with the customer's VAT number.
Corporate finance teams can pay without friction.
When one licensed broker passes a requirement or a buyer to another, the agreed referral share is recorded against the deal. Once the receiving broker confirms the deal closed, the platform collects and settles the share, minus its own fee, with a statement to both sides.
Co-brokerage is tracked instead of argued about.
Sellers pay for an inspection that confirms the property exists, the photos are current and the key specifications match. Verified listings carry a badge and rank higher, and the inspector is paid through the platform once the report is uploaded and checked by your moderators.
Buyers trust what they see, and sellers pay for that trust.
Engineers, managers and their families arrive in the Eastern Province from across the world, so every listing, email alert and invoice works in Arabic and English, with right to left layouts for Arabic. Saved searches send alerts when a compound villa in Dhahran or an office in Khobar matching the brief is approved, bringing buyers back without paid advertising.
Repeat visits from newcomers and residents alike.
Brokers register with their FAL licence and commercial registration, owners and agents sign in through Nafath, and every advert carries its REGA advertising licence. Listings with lapsed licences are withdrawn automatically and the broker is notified, with a link to renew and republish once the new licence is entered.
The platform stays within REGA rules as it scales.
Paid reports for subscribed brokerages showing search demand by district and property type, requirement volumes and how their listings perform against the area. Reports are generated from the platform's own data, with no personal buyer details exposed. Reports can be bought one at a time or included in higher plans.
An extra paid product built from data you already hold.
Who we build for
Dammam, Khobar and Dhahran work as one market with very different parts: family housing, gated compounds, offices, retail, warehouses and industrial land. Platforms that try to be everything at once rarely earn well. The founders and brokers who come to us usually have a sharp idea of which part they serve and who will pay. These four are the most common, and each starts with a different set of modules and a different order of launch, which we settle in the first discovery calls.
A brokerage or founder focused on warehouses, workshops, yards and industrial plots needs listings with technical detail, a requirement board for logistics and manufacturing tenants, and invoicing that corporate buyers accept. We build that first and leave residential search for later, if at all, so the platform is the best place in the region for one type of property rather than average at many. Industrial brokers are few and well connected, so a platform they rate highly spreads by word of mouth.
Depth in one segment wins over breadth.
Families and professionals moving into the Eastern Province look for compounds, villas and apartments close to work and schools. We build metro area search with travel time filters, bilingual listings, broker plans and paid featured spots, with a verified badge that helps newcomers who cannot view a property before they arrive. Relocation teams at large employers can hold a company account and shortlist homes on behalf of new staff.
Contractors and large employers need to house teams quickly, often for a fixed project period. A marketplace where companies post requirements, landlords and brokers bid with whole buildings or groups of units, and the company pays a platform fee on award, fills a gap that general portals do not serve well. We add capacity fields such as rooms, beds, kitchens and transport access, and a simple comparison view for the procurement team.
Built around the company buyer.
Several independent brokerages in Dammam can share one platform, pool their listings, refer buyers to each other and split the cost of running it. We build member accounts, a shared requirement pool, the referral ledger and a member fee structure, with the cooperative's own rules for who sees which listing first. Running costs are shared on a published formula, so no member feels it is paying for the others.
How the work runs
Property listing marketplace platform development in Dammam runs with your team by video call: discovery workshops, design reviews and sprint demos are all held online with shared prototypes, recordings and written decisions. If your founders want to meet face to face, our Riyadh office is the place to do it. Most clients start with a fixed scope first release and then keep us on a monthly retainer for new listing types, paid products and rule changes. Any change to a fee, a refund rule or a referral share is approved in writing by your side first, and every release note lists what changed for brokers and buyers.
A defined build with a deadline
We agree what the product has to do, write it down with a price and a date, and build exactly that. Changes are priced before they are made, not discovered on the invoice.
A product that keeps evolving
Named engineers who work your hours, join your standups and stay on the codebase. You direct the backlog; we own the quality of what ships.
Something live that needs looking after
A monthly block of hours for improvements, fixes and the small requests that otherwise wait months. Unused hours carry for a quarter.
Technology
A Next.js front end for fast, indexable city and property type pages, a Laravel or Node back end for accounts, listings, requirements and the ledgers, a managed database in a Saudi cloud region, a SAMA licensed gateway with mada, and a ZATCA e-invoicing integration. Search runs on a dedicated index so technical filters for industrial stock stay quick.

It depends on the segments and paid products in the first release.
A platform launching with residential listings and broker plans is quicker than one that also runs a requirement board, company invoicing and the referral ledger, because each money flow needs its own testing. Gateway onboarding and REGA technical linking can also set the pace. We fix the scope with you by video call, write the delivery dates into the plan and demonstrate working software at the end of every cycle, so you can test each paid product with real brokers as soon as it exists.
