Digital Rental Services Launched on Real Estate Platform

Sharjah has launched a revamped digital platform, Aqari, to streamline its rental market, marking a significant step towards fully integrated digital government services. Developed by the Sharjah Digital Department in collaboration with Sharjah Municipality, Aqari acts as a single digital gateway for all real estate services in the emirate, replacing traditional paper-based procedures with a unified, fully digital system. This initiative aligns with Sharjah's and the UAE's broader digital transformation goals, aiming to enhance efficiency and transparency in real estate transactions.

The upgraded Aqari platform offers a comprehensive suite of services, including all types of lease contracts, flexible payment options, and personalized dashboards accessible through UAE Pass. Integration with entities like SEWA allows for fully digitized processes for moving into and out of properties, providing a seamless, 24/7 experience. The platform's automation has streamlined processes, with approximately 95% now fully automated, significantly reducing processing times and minimizing the need for manual intervention.

This transformation delivers faster, more transparent, and cost-effective services for users. Key benefits include simplified digital steps for lease contracts, from registration to instant issuance. The platform also supports environmental sustainability and enhances transparency while providing secure, accessible services around the clock.

Aqari reflects Sharjah's commitment to digital integration, aiming to be a global model for unified real estate services. The platform regulates leasing services, strengthens landlord-tenant relationships, and improves service quality, ultimately responding to the evolving needs of customers and the real estate sector.
