NEW OPPORTUNITIES IN PROPERTY

By Nancy Duckels

Ahmed Khalil, of the Khalil Property Group, is excited to bring his new Airbnb partnership venture to the Brighton and Hove property market. The new venture helps people to get their property into the Airbnb market. From interior design services that get the property looking great, management services that take care of guest maintenance, to investing into the property to really maximise potential - Ahmed’s new Airbnb business has it covered. Ahmed’s company, the Khalil Property Group, already performs a range of services within the property industry. Now Ahmed is excited to work in this exciting new Airbnb market: “I’m always thinking about what’s new and different…and this is a great opportunity for people.” Ahmed has worked in the Brighton and Hove property market since 2007. The Khalil Property Group began as an online agency, and has grown to include busy offices in both Brighton and Hove. Ahmed provides thriving letting agency services, a rental guarantee scheme and property maintenance services. Ahmed says: “The business has grown organically. It started from the ground up. It’s been a fantastic journey.” After qualifying in business law, Ahmed has always had a passion for the business of property. He says that it’s working with people in the property industry that drives him: “It’s a different relationship, it’s not just a customer and a client relationship. People want to know that you will be there for them.” For Ahmed, customer service is crucial: “It’s all about people…I’ve always believed in customer focus, customer service - develop a good relationship with your clients, always deliver what you say you will deliver.” Now Ahmed is excited to launch the next arm of his business - the Airbnb services. Ahmed is keen to work with people who have a property that they want to get onto the short-term rental market. He says that there is a real demand for Airbnb places to stay in the city: “The need for Airbnb and temporary accommodation is growing - it’s not just attracting the holiday-maker but people from all different backgrounds, in different circumstances.” Husband and father of three Ahmed loves living and working in Brighton. He laughs as he says that he came straight here from Egypt in 2004 and never left: “Brighton is such a fantastic city. I’ve never lived anywhere else here - it just clicked. I didn’t need to try anywhere else!” Ahmed Khalil is excited to continue business in the Brighton and Hove property market, through lettings and his new Airbnb venture. He tells me that Brighton is a special place to live and work: “What I like about Brighton is that it’s cosmopolitan and it’s different. It’s a happy city. There’s life in Brighton.”
