Bahrain Property

The Kingdom of Bahrain is made up of an archipelago of low lying islands located off the eastern shore of Saudi Arabia in the Arabian Gulf. 

Frequently called the Pearl of the Arabian Gulf, Bahrain has a history of more than 5,000 years of civilization which has contributed to the modern and traditional blend of Bahraini culture today. Historic and modern Bahrain blend well and the Kingdom remains an oasis of stability in the Middle East.

Bahrain is the site of immortal Dilmun , religious centre to Summerians, Babylonians and Assyrians. The rich culture has also been influenced by the Greeks, Portuguese, Omani's and the English. Bahrain was a British colony until 1971.

Today Bahrain is a modern and highly developed strategic centre for industry and services in the Middle East. The marvellous historic sites and buildings compete with modern office buildings and colourful traditional markets to create the unique atmosphere of 21 st Bahrain. 

While relatively small in population, land area and resources Bahrain has achieved a high level of social and economic development in a short period.  The road network, international airport, telecommunications, public services, medical facilities and university are all recognised as being among the best in the world.   The drive for greater development has partly been driven by the extensive expatriate population which brings a demand for Western standards and a diverse range of skills from across the globe.

Bahrain's geographical location, its importance to trade and industry and the government's investment in developing the tourism industry have all contributed to the recent property boom. Although it is a small nation with limited land availability, the level of demand is expected to increase significantly.

An example of one of the many market drivers is the tendency for expatriates working in Saudi Arabia to reside in Bahrain and commute daily over the 25km long King Fahad Causeway. Demand for tourist accommodation is also on the increase.

Bahrain has much to attract foreign visitors. English is widely spoken, traditional Arab courtesy and hospitality abound and there is a wealth of historic and cultural attractions. For property investors, Bahrain is an even more interesting proposition.
