"The completion of Amwaj Gateway capital raising is proof of the strong faith and trust we have with our investors, considering the advanced stage of this project, as we are almost done with the piling foundation" said Mr. Mohammed AlTawash, Chairman of Amwaj Gateway.

Amwaj Gateway is being developed by RealCAPITA, to provide different types of townhouses and apartments housed in three 20-stories towers.

"We are currently considering a number of offers by specialized hotel and leisure investors to co-develop the serviced apartment tower. This will eventually lead to securing an attractive operator for this facility", he added.

It was announced by Qais AlMaskati that the marketing campaign and retail unit sales would start by mid to end of this summer season.
