Doha: A new batch of licensed Qatari real estate brokers took the legal oath in front of the Real Estate Affairs Committee at the Ministry of Justice. The batch consisted of 13 mediators, which raises the number of licensed brokers since the entry into force of the new law to more than 80.
The new batch comes within the framework of the implementation procedures of the provisions of the law. It pushes the real estate brokerage business towards an organized legal environment prepared to keep pace with the economic and urban renaissance witnessed by the country and the great expansion in the real estate sector in terms of re-configuring and to organise the real estate system to achieve the objectives of Qatar National Vision 2030.
This step comes within the Ministry of Justice’s efforts to reorganise the real estate brokerage profession and to work per the provisions of Law No. 22 of 2017 to regulate real estate brokerage work to serve the national economy. It will also develop working mechanisms in the real estate market and qualify those who work in the mediation profession from the owners of offices and Qatari mediators.
On this occasion, the Assistant Undersecretary for Real Estate Registration and Documentation Affairs at the Ministry of Justice and Head of the Real Estate Affairs Committee, Saeed Abdullah Al Suwaidi, said that the number of applicants to practice real estate brokerage is increasing.
He added that the Real Estate Department is in charge of receiving and sorting applications and organising the required training courses in coordination with the Training Department at the Legal and Judicial Studies Center to ensure that the applicant meets all the professional and legal requirements.
This batch of licensed real estate brokers represents the third batch of new real estate brokers that are being prepared for licensing after the completion of the legal arrangements and requirements.
The Real Estate Department has started organising specialised courses for brokers applying to practice the profession.
