Iraq Property Investment in Jordan Surges

Iraq property investment in Jordan surged in early 2025, making Iraq the top foreign buyer in the country. Iraqi investors led in both total property value and the number of purchases.

They spent more than 23.7 million Jordanian dinars, or about $33.4 million. That equals 36% of all foreign investment in Jordan’s property market during the period.

The United States came next with 8.75 million dinars, or $12.34 million. Syria followed with 4.39 million dinars, around $6.19 million. Saudi Arabia ranked fourth, investing 2.8 million dinars, or $3.95 million.

Iraqis also bought the most properties. They acquired 170, leading all other nationalities. Saudis followed with 143, and Syrians bought 66.

In April alone, Saudi citizens made the highest number of purchases with 45 properties. Iraqis came second with 37. Syrians and Americans each acquired 16, while Emiratis and Germans bought 12 properties each.

Even in April, Iraq property investment in Jordan remained on top in terms of value. Iraqi citizens invested 5.75 million dinars, or $8.11 million. That accounted for 36% of total foreign investment that month.

Buyers from the United Arab Emirates came second. They spent 1.35 million dinars, or $1.9 million. The United States followed with 1.3 million dinars, equal to $1.83 million.

These figures confirm a consistent pattern. Iraq property investment in Jordan continues to lead by both money and property count. This trend signals strong ties between the two countries and ongoing confidence in Jordan’s real estate.

Experts suggest the trend could last through the year. Iraqis show interest in housing, land, and commercial properties. If political and economic stability continues, investment levels may even grow.

The real estate link between Iraq and Jordan now plays a key role in the regional business landscape. Future reports will show whether this momentum stays strong.
