Hamptons International and Partners announces new management team to drive Oman business

The new focus of the Oman office underscores the regional expansion of Hamptons, which already has a firm foothold within the UAE and the GCC region.

The new Oman management team will be led by Mr Mohamed Ayjaz with the key objective of offering the very best property service and advice to the Oman market, and becoming the Sultanate's leading property services provider.

The new team will also include a dedicated new research arm, providing clients with detailed and up-to-the-minute analysis on the country's property market and investment opportunities. The research arm will include valuations, research, global investment advice and asset management services.

Hamptons International & Partners has simultaneously expanded into property management services and strengthened its portfolio of cost-competitive management services. This builds upon the company's current portfolio to now offer the entire breadth of property services from residential and commercial sales to property management and consultancy.

Mr Nasser Abdul Rahman Rafi, Managing Director, Hamptons International - Mena, said, "Hamptons has a long and established track-record of offering value-added property services in Oman. Now, we have further strengthened our service offerings and product portfolio under a new management team. We have established stronger linkages with the Hamptons global network, and can offer customers the advantage of accessing properties from an international database."

Mr Mohamed Ayjaz, General Manager, Hamptons International & Partners Oman, added:

"The visionary initiatives of His Majesty Sultan Qaboos have helped Oman to meet the challenges of the global economic crisis effectively. The property sector in Oman has shown considerable resilience, and demand continues to be robust encouraged by realistic price corrections. With our in-depth knowledge of the property sector globally, we are now better equipped to offer a wider range of property choices to customers and assist in them in making informed purchase decisions."

He added, "Under the new management approach, Hamptons will cover a diverse portfolio of projects for all cross-sections of the society. In the current economic context, and as a responsible property services company, it is important to understand market requirements and meet them proactively. We are therefore strengthening our portfolio of affordable stock and ensuring customers are provided with the very best service and advice."

Hamptons International & Partners is one of the oldest real estate agencies under the Hamptons banner in the Middle East region and the new management team will leverage the 140 years of experience Hamptons has in the property market.
