It seems that because of the economic uncertainty and the availability of Islamic finance, Middle Eastern real estate investors are begining to look East to markets such as Malaysia.
Middle Eastern investment into Malaysian real estate projects has boosted to 11.4% in the third quarter of 2011 compared with the same period in 2010.
The fact that Malaysia has been offering Shariah compliant financial services for over 25 years makes it very attractive to buyers from the Middle East.
