The 3-day event showcasing properties and home interior products and services is expected to attract more than 50,000 affluent home buyers and home owners from local and abroad. Over the past six years, the event has attracted thousands of high net-worth individuals, expatriates and institutional visitors. It has proven to be an event serious home buyers seeking ideal buys can ill-afford to miss.
Under the partnership, Maybank will be the sole and exclusive financier for the exhibition to provide financing to eligible purchasers of properties at the Expo.
Patrick Grove, Executive Chairman of the iProperty.com Group said, “I am proud to be associated with Maybank, the largest financial services group in Malaysia to co-present the iProperty.com Expo in Mid Valley Exhibition Centre. Working with the premier bank gives us an edge over others in providing a complete platform enhancing our exhibitors’ promotions”.
Many high-quality award-winning exhibitors have reserved their participations in this year’s show. Top Malaysian developers such as Mah Sing, Sime Darby, Metro Kajang, Equine Capital, Glenmarie Cove, Kumpulan Lebar Daun, Land & General and among others will be showcasing their latest and much-sought after properties in the Klang Valley. Ideal Homes from Penang will showcase its latest development which was launched very recently in the island.
The Expo will also showcase some cutting-edge home and kitchen product technologies. Leading brands such as LG, KitchMate, Getha, Nesh and many others will complement other participating top brands to provide a complete under-one-roof shopping experience for everyone.
Maybank will have on offer a wide range of home loans, both conventional and Islamic, at competitive interest rates during the Expo. Customers will have the choice of term loans, overdraft or a combination of both and will enjoy special incentives and promotional give-aways.
Grove continued, “What we are aiming to achieve this year is to add exciting new elements to the exhibition as such a large floor space is dedicated to LG to promote its latest product technologies. In addition, we have invited Mr. Yap Kim Boon to exhibit his art pieces exclusively for us at iProperty.com Expo. Yap’s work in vivid and rich colours illustrates the richness of the local culture and surrounding in supremely artistic simplicity. His distinctive technique of painting with a hand-made bamboo palette knife results in a three dimensional texture effect and captures light and movement uniquely”.
Aside from catering to visitors, the iProperty.com EXPO will also differentiate itself by being the only property exhibition in Malaysia to implement activities tailored at ensuring exhibitors reap maximum benefits. Show Directories will be available to all visitors to have easy access to all information of our exhibitors.
An impressive line up of speakers will be presenting on the most up-to-date issues relating to property matters such as the re-implementation of Real Estate Gain Tax (RPGT) next year as well as property market updates giving investors a head-start for the year 2010.
iProperty.com Expo is the proven platform with more than RM100 million worth of property transacted during the iProperty.com EXPO in Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre last July. The next line up of iProperty.com Expos will be from 21 – 23 May 2010 at Mid Valley Exhibition Centre, 30 July – 1 August 2010 at Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre and 23 – 24 October 2010 at Marina Bay Sands in Singapore.
