With many industries reshaped by the global pandemic, the world as we know it has changed - for the better.

Amid all the reshuffling, developing new business models and rethinking strategies, companies are also making quick shifts for the good of its employees, customers and society. Needless to say, these unprecedented times have brought unparalleled generosity.

The year 2020 has been a roller coaster ride for Dubai’s real estate industry, but the sector managed the situation remarkably well. And some companies such as Al Ghurair Properties have risen above everything to give back to people in the best way they can.

We want our tenants to know they always have a home with us. These times have affected both professional and personal lives around the world, and we are honoured to be able to extend tangible support in a way that can truly make a difference in someone’s life.

- Hamad Abdulla Al Ghurair, Head of Residential and Commercial, Al Ghurair Properties

Under its initiative AGP Cares, Al Ghurair Properties has taken huge steps to ease the challenges posed during the height of the pandemic and even now as we embrace the new normal. Over the past year, the company has introduced two months of rent-free living for tenants, the ability to pay for a year of rent in twelve separate cheques, as well as the option to use a credit card to make rent payments through its tenant app.

“Al Ghurair Properties is listening to its customers and their needs by establishing new ways to enhance their lives,” says Hamad Abdulla Al Ghurair, Head of Residential and Commercial, Al Ghurair Properties. “The resilience we’ve shown to come out of the crisis, speaks volumes of our country’s genuineness, fighting spirit and deeply rooted sense of generosity.”

Now in a bid to give back to the community, Al Ghurair Properties has announced an opportunity for one family who has been deeply affected by the pandemic to live in one of its homes rent-free for a whole year.

“Our offer aims to change a family’s life for the better, which doesn’t strike as surprising considering the various measures we have taken to support tenants that have trouble paying rent,” says Al Ghurair. “We want our tenants to know they always have a home with us. These times have affected both professional and personal lives around the world, and we are honoured to be able to extend tangible support in a way that can truly make a difference in someone’s life.”
