- ARECE '08 Upscale & High-Rise : Amman Real Estate & Credit Finance Conference & Expo
-
Aug 9, 2008 - Aug 11, 2008,
Kempinski Hotel, Amman, JordanThe strong demand on real estate in the Kingdom has led to prices of land and property multiplying to levels no longer affordable by the average Jordanian, thereby driving locals to relocate to the outskirts of the city, which were once remote barren areas, where prices remain slightly lower than the Capital.
Estate Agents are keenly awaiting the summer months, where demand for real estate is expected to broaden further as a consequence of the return of Jordanians living abroad for the holiday, the onset of the tourist season, and the arrival of visitors from the Gulf states, wishing to escape the summer heat in their own countries. - full details
