If your home country has a reciprocal arrangement with Jordan for buying property, then you can buy real estate in Jordan if you have the approval of the Council of Ministers.

Foreigners must hold on to any property they purchase for at least five years before they are allowed to sell. Jordan's capital city, Amman is where most expats rent and buy properties.
