Realtors are going to organise a three-day REHAB Housing Fair in New York, USA to promote sales of plots and flats among expatriate Bangladeshis.
State Minister for Housing and Public Works Abdul Mannan Khan will inaugurate the fair as the chief guest while Bangladesh mission's Consul General in New York Sabbir Ahmed will be the special guest, said a statement.
President of Real Estate and Housing Association of Bangladesh (REHAB) Nasrul Hamid Bipu, general secretary Murad Iqbal Chowdhury and fair convenor Shakil Kamal Chowdhury will also be present at the inaugural ceremony.
The fair will continue from September 24 to September 26. Nearly 75 companies have finalised the procedure to take part in the fair. The concluding ceremony will be held on September 27 at Astoria in New York.
The realtors' group is also going to organise a three-day REHAB Housing Fair, in Toronto in Canada.
Mr Khan will inaugurate the fair as the chief guest while Bangladesh High Commissioner to Canada A M Yakub Ali will be the special guest at the ceremony.
REHAB leaders including its President will also be present at the inaugural ceremony.
The fair organisers think this initiative will create an opportunity for the market expansion of the housing industry and catalyse expatriates' investment.
