Tasweek, UK firm in property management JV

Tasweek Real Estate Development and Marketing, an advisor and solutions provider serving the Middle East real estate markets, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) forming a assets and property management joint venture with UK-based bespoke chartered surveying practice MERJS Ltd.

The new partnership further expands Tasweek’s property and portfolio management business and enhances its ability to bring best practices to its markets.

Under the terms of the agreement, Tasweek will be allowed to solicit business opportunities related to assets management, property management and other services offered by MERJS and profitably manage commercial operations under the common supervision of the joint venture.

“Our new partnership with one of London’s leading property firms will enable us to expand our world-class assets and property management services to the UAE. Like Tasweek, MERJS is run by people who truly understand property. Both our companies are also highly committed to filling niche areas in asset and property management. By consolidating our business strengths we have the opportunity to strategically position ourselves as the UAE’s real estate sector prepares for steady and mature growth in 2011 and beyond,” said Masood Al Awar, CEO, Tasweek Real Estate Development and Marketing.

MERJS is one of London’s leading bespoke chartered surveyors with combined assets under management currently valued at more than Dh11.5 billion and an annual rent roll of over Dh707 million sourced from its more than 2,000 administered tenants in the UK. Among the prestigious properties under MERJS’ management are the Burlington Arcade, Polo Ralph Lauren, Cartier and Mikimoto buildings in Bond street.
