LAHORE: The Pakistan Property Show will return to Dubai with a greater number of exhibitors, a larger real estate inventory and a bigger space to accommodate more visitors at Dubai World Trade Centre in 2018.
This was stated on Monday by the management of Zameen.com at the conclusion of an event that reportedly attracted over 14,000 visitors on Oct 20-21 at Za’abeel Hall 5 at the prestigious Dubai World Trade Centre, according to a statement released by the real estate firm.
Property show planned in Dubai to woo investors
“Some 50 real estate developers and agencies brought forth their best offerings including both residential and commercial properties suited to the varying needs of the overseas Pakistani community.
“Properties from Peshawar, Islamabad, Lahore, Faisalabad, Sargodha, Karachi, Gwadar and places in between were brought to the doorsteps of potential home owners and investors. Thousands of leads were generated and commitments made paving the way for more remittance inflows to Pakistan,” the statement claimed.
“Pakistan First remains our foremost agenda at Zameen.com,” CEO Zeeshan Ali Khan said after the event.
From Dubai back to Pakistan: the real estate investors’ journey
“The 14,000 visitors at the Pakistan Property Show are proof that Pakistani realty has a major role to play in attracting overseas remittances and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI),” he said, adding that he aims to come back to Dubai with a bigger show in 2018.
Estimating Pakistan’s realty market to be worth $700 billion, Khan said the show will help in encouraging foreign direct investment in the country by high net worth investors, investment companies, international developers and brokerage firms.
