United Arab Emirates is the name on everybody’s lips at the moment. Whether it requires launching buyouts for football teams or headhunting British workers for booming industries, everyone has noticed of the blossoming seven-state nation about the shores of the Persian Gulf.
Most individuals think of Dubai once they think of the UAE. The glittering skyscraper-filled skyline and hugely ambitious developments have drawn a flock of home investors and raised a raft of headlines within the UK press and abroad.
But hardly anyone thinks – or has even heard – of neighbouring state Ajman, just minutes away from Dubai, exactly where other savvy investors are now beginning to put their cash.
Ajman may be the smallest UAE state at just 260 square kilometres in size and is providing property traders of any nationality completely transparent freehold ownership on real estate.
The city, originally a tiny fishing village, now borders Sharjah and Umm al-Quwain, laying claim to 16 kilometres of unspoilt Gulf coast.
Nearly all of its 37,000 population live in the capital city of Ajman, but the booming construction industry has attracted a huge number of international traders, keen on creating cash.
