Pakistan Property Show, lining up more than 50 exhibitors showcasing a wide array of realty investment options, will be held at Za'abeel Hall 5 of the Dubai World Trade Centre on October 20-21.

The show will provide overseas Pakistanis - which comprise the second-largest community in the UAE - with an opportunity to buy properties back home. It will also offer foreign investors opportunities to increase their portfolio as a result of exposure to one of the most high-return real estate markets in the Asia-Pacific region.

The show, organised by Zameen.com, a popular online real estate portal of Pakistan, in association with EarthLink Real Estate and the Association of Builders and Developers of Pakistan, will feature leading Pakistani real estate developers and brokerage houses showcasing a wide spectrum of attractive real estate options.

Defence Housing Authority Peshawar is also participating as one of the premier exhibitors at the event. Entry to the show will be open for all visitors with registration at the entrance, and thousands are expected to attend the two-day event. Zameen.com CEO Zeeshan Ali Khan said the show would be the first ever property show to provide an exclusive showcase to Pakistani real estate on the global stage and the first ever to be hosted at the Dubai World Trade Centre.

Haider Ali Khan, the CEO of Bayut.com - an influential property portal in the UAE - said overseas Pakistani community has found a permanent home in both the countries. "Bayut.com and Zameen.com together complete the bridge between their homes in UAE and in Pakistan."

"We are happy to support the Pakistan Property Show in Dubai. Generations of overseas Pakistanis have with their hearts and hands served UAE as their own home. No wonder the overseas Pakistani community has found a permanent home in both the countries. Bayut.com and Zameen.com together complete the bridge between their homes in UAE and in Pakistan."

Imran Ali Khan, the CEO of Emerging Markets Property Group - which owns and operates Bayut.com, Zameen.com and Bproperty in the UAE, Pakistan and Bangladesh - said emerging economies in the South Asian region are undergoing a realignment.

"The multi-trillion-dollar real estate industry is becoming the core of economic growth. Tapping into the overseas Pakistani investor base has thus never been more critical in fully realizing the economic potential of the country's real estate industry. Pakistan Property Show is the first major step in that direction
