Boosting Qatar’s Real Estate Sector: Proposed National Funding Strategy

Proposals have been put forward for a national real estate funding strategy in Qatar to boost the sector. The Ministry of Municipality announced the recommendations following the Qatar Real Estate Forum, which attracted 1,500 leaders, decision-makers and executives from around the world. The country’s real estate strategy should provide investors with incentives, as well as develop creative housing financing options and open ownership for foreigners, according to a release from Qatar’s state news agency. It was noted that the real estate sector across the Gulf Cooperation Council countries shows great promise due to the region’s favourable conditions, such as geographic diversity, easy access, availability of security and tourist attractions.
