Emirati Service Management Firm Completes Leasing of Villas in Sorouh Development

Khidmah is a services management company, which was the first owned and operated company in Abu Dhabi. It has announced the leasing for 588 villas in Sorouh Real Estate's development; Sas Al Nakhl Village has been completed. Despite of the global downturn of the region’s property sector all properties including 244x4 bedrooms, 307x3 bedroom and 37x5 bedroom villas were all leased within few months. Khidmah’s website played a very important role in boosting the leasing rates of these villas.

The CEO, Khidmah, Sutton Turner, said: “Sas Al Nakhl is a wonderful community developed by Sorouh and we are very excited to be providing our extensive portfolio of services to its new residents. Leasing this community is just the beginning for Khidmah - the next step is to provide unmatched resident services with the rollout of our own maintenance, fitness, cleaning and landscaping teams.” He further added: “Crucial to Khidmah's success to date has been our commitment to effectiveness in managing and maintaining successful properties, coupled with our ability to deliver great value, fulfill customer needs, and serve our partners - all via a single point of contact. We believe this is what gives us the edge, and it's what ensured that we delivered for Sorouh in a short space of time in a challenging marketplace.”

Khidmah has appointed a special leasing staff. It has recently added to the UAE’s services management market as it launched Cityscape Abu Dhabi in April 2009.
