Listing Policy



Terms and Conditions


Please familiarize yourself with Alnoor's Listing Policies and Guidelines (the "Listing Policies") prior to entering a property listing on the Alnoor website. All listings are subject to the Listing Policies.


Listing Review
All listings entered on Alnoor may be subject to review by Alnoor company personnel ("Listing Review") prior to becoming available for full viewing online. Alnoor reserves the right, but not the obligation, to review any listing entered by Customer on Alnoor web site. Although Customer's listings may be subject to Listing Review, Customer remains solely responsible for abiding by the Listing Policies and Alnoor's Terms and Conditions. The Listing Policies prohibit Customer from entering any listing that infringes upon the intellectual property rights of any party, or that otherwise violates Alnoor's Terms and Conditions. By entering listings on Alnoor, Customer warrants and represents that Customer owns or otherwise controls all of the rights to such content including, without limitation, all the rights necessary for Customer to provide, post, upload, input or submit such content. Customer acknowledges that Alnoor cannot police or control all of the content provided by Customer(s) that is made available on Alnoor.

Listings that violate any of the Listing Policies stated herein will not receive Listing Review approval for active posting on Alnoor until the issue in question has been addressed. When conducting Listing Review, new listings added to Alnoor are examined to determine whether such listings are in compliance with the Listing Policies. In the event Listing Review determines a listing violates Listing Policies (including but not limited to containing inaccurate or incomplete information), Listing Review will send an email message to the Customer about such listing, clearly stating how such proposed listing does not conform to established Listing Policies and offering solutions on how to rectify the deficiency. After the Customer receives notice from Listing Review, the Customer will be given a reasonable amount of time (routinely, 48 hours) to respond. It is then the sole responsibility of the Customer to review the communication from Listing Review, revise the listing as appropriate, and resubmit the corrected listing. Once the appropriate revision has been made, and Listing Review determines the listing is compliant with Listing Policies, the listing will be made available for full viewing on the site. However, if the Customer fails to respond to the communication from Listing Review, Alnoor in its sole discretion reserves the right to remove any and all content that continues to violate the Listing Policies, including disallowing listings from the Service.


Required Fields
All fields noted by an asterisk (*) on the add property page are required fields and must be completed with valid data pertaining to the property being listed ("Required Fields"). Property listings where data is missing or data entered in the Required Fields is deemed illogical will be removed from the site until valid content is entered in the Required Fields.

Property Description
Property descriptions are for the description of the property that is for sale or for rent only. The posting of contact name, phone number, fax number, company information or URL links for any contacts including those who are not Alnoor members is strictly prohibited in this section. This type of information in the Property Description field will be removed from the listing and the listing broker will receive an email informing them of the change. Habitual violations of this policy will result in Alnoor's removal of all of such Customer's active listings on the Service until all such content has been appropriately rectified.

Properties must be identified with the appropriate property type. Alnoor reserves the right to change or remove property types deemed to be misleading.

Office condos with the same physical address are exempt as long as a unit number is included in the address field. Land parcel listings are excluded as long as the sum total of all individual parcels listed does not exceed the total acreage available at the physical site. Alnoor reserves the right to remove any and all properties that are determined to be duplicates with or without contacting the listing broker. Customers may, however, list a property for sale and for lease at the same time.
Space Listings Alnoor prohibits the listing of the same space more than once on the web site at the same time. A space listing is defined as a single suite or unit of space listed for rent. Alnoor reserves the right to combine duplicate space listings into a single listing or to remove the listing from the system with or without contacting the listing broker.

Listing Quantity, Submission, and Display

All such photographs must be either (a) the property of the listing broker or (b) the listing broker must have received all necessary rights and authorizations, including from the photographer and/or copyright owner of any photographs, to publish such photographs on the Customer's website or on Alnoor's website for the purpose of advertising the subject property. Photographs uploaded that are not directly related to the building or property being listed, including brokerage company logos, may be removed at the discretion of Alnoor.
