Worldwide Property Show Dubai Nov 2007

”Visitors to the stand in both cities were in a very positive mood looking for investments in traditional locations, with the UK and Geneva proving particularly popular….we meet a large number of serious buyers. These shows are all about quality!”

Vincent Easton
Sales Director, Sherwoods Independent Property Consultants.
UK, FRANCE, MOROCCO, SWITZERLAND, SPAIN, UAE.

“Very pleased with the response. Our company attends a lot of events around the world and we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the investors at the Dubai event. Apart from meeting a large number of buyers, we also talked to several local agents about representing our company in the UAE, and expect to sign up a leading estate agency during my trip.”

“For a small investment of taking a 9m2 stand, we took deposits on our development in Malaysia worth US$1.5million….At times we just didn’t have enough people to talk to the buyers. Bahrain was great and we took deposits, but Dubai, where we have participated for the past three seasons was outstanding.”

Jenny Low
Sales Manager, KL Metro

“This was our first exhibition outside Thailand and the effort we made in designing our stand was definitely worthwhile.

We are pleased with the business and enjoyed exhibiting in the Grand Hyatt’s Baniyas ballroom, which is a class act!”

Mimi Coutelier
President, First Choice

“We have been exhibiting at the Worldwide Property Show for a number of seasons, and have constantly made sales. Our prices are on the high side as we are developing a first class project in Gibraltar, however the high quality of investors at the Grand Hyatt is ideal for us!”

Dubai Property Show at RDS irish international Exhibition and convention centre Dublin
March 26th 2006

We exhibit at a lot of property shows both in Dublin and around Ireland and the Dubai show in Dublin was one of the best we have attended. We were fortunate to be representing Al Fajer Properties at the show which gave us probablly the most professional stand in the hall.

We found the quality of the potential clients was very good with a very focused interest in Dubai Property. Sunday especially was a very busy day and it has given our existing database of clients interested in Dubai a tremendous boost.

The Jumierah Business Centre received  a level of interest which was beyond our expections and I believe this was due to the quality of the product along with the credibility of the company.
Nobody else at the show could give clients a 5 star commercial product along with a 9% guaranteed return over an initial 5 year period.

An Excepional Weekend.

Priscilla Edwards, City of Arabia’s Customer Relations Manager said “Having our 16m2 model of the City of Arabia on
our stand was definitely worth the effort and cost of shipping it over to Dublin. It was a huge attraction, and was constantly
the centre of much attention. As a result we came away from the show with over 120 very serious sales leads!”

Charles King, the UK Sales Director for Damac said, “The interest from Irish investors was extremely strong and our staff
were very busy on our stand for all three days. The show was definitely worthwhile and we not only sold property, but
expect a lot of future interest and more sales in the coming weeks.”

Adnan Siddiqui, Marketing Manager from Tameer said, “It was a great success for Tameer and we now have some very positive leads to work with. We certainly reached our management’s goals in Ireland.”

Tim Boswell from Ocean View Real Estate said, “We were very happy to be part of the exhibition in Dublin. During which
time we generated some valuable leads and great business opportunities. We look forward to being apart of these exhibitions
in the future.”

Leonid Artemov, Commercial Manager of Perseus Property said, "We had an excellent show - our main aim was to show our face to our agents and do some soft marketing to prospective buyers as we are still in pre-launch phase.  We ended up taking firm orders for 6 properties on Orenburg Island, The World, so we were delighted with the response.

Eurostar thanks the organizers of the WPS who have done a wonderful job at this show. We got excellent leads through the event and now our lead box is bursting out full!

leads so it was worthwhile."

We are therefore looking seriously at opening a branch office."

a pleasure to be there."

this perfect set up."
