The past decade has seen many<br />
changes in GCC region with major<br />
effects on the economy and a shift in<br />
focus in key sectors. One consistent<br />
trend through all the fluctuations has<br />
been the real estate sector’s resilient<br />
ability to bounce back after each<br />
knock. In the region there is no doubt<br />
that Bahrain’s property development<br />
industry and real estate sector is one<br />
of the most reliable and the country<br />
itelf has remained a top choice for<br />
investors.<br />
Shada Judeh, Regional Manager of<br />
YourAmlak, considered as one of the<br />
fastest growing property portal in the<br />
Middle East, is optimistic about the<br />
future for Bahrain’s real estate sector.<br />
With 12 years experience in GCC realty<br />
and constant movement between the<br />
four countries she manages, she is<br />
certainly well equipped to judge.<br />
“Regardless of the changes, Bahrain<br />
has a reputation as a popular and<br />
affordable place to invest in,” she says.<br />
It is a fact that when changes<br />
in an economy occur, people resort<br />
to buying properties. Cash in banks<br />
after all is considered the most<br />
dangerous commodity to have in times<br />
of economic change. When it comes<br />
to buying or renting a property, most<br />
home buyers face difficulty is finding<br />
the right property, the location, price,<br />
authenticity, etc. In such situations,<br />
online real estate portals are the best<br />
way for buyers to shortlist properties<br />
and compare them at various<br />
parameters.<br />
YourAmlak is one such B2B real<br />
estate portal that links the real estate<br />
industry by creating a platform for<br />
brokers, developers, and end users to<br />
effectively showcase their property,<br />
making it easier for potential<br />
