‘Without infrastructure, real estate is nothing’

Sayfco CEO Chahe Yerevanian runs among the country's most successful real estate firms. Executive sat with him to discuss the company's long-term strategy, Syrian refugees and the government's role in the Lebanese real estate sector.   You have told us that your company has achieved development of 14 projects in a three-year cycle that started in 2010. What is your growth expectation in the next three years? I think the slope is going to be extremely steep and I forecast that we will have 50 projects in a cycle in the next three years, because we already have many in the pipeline and many close to the pipeline. So I can foresee 50 projects increasing from 14.   Your projects have been concentrated in the Metn region. What is your strategy of geographic expansion? The next step is to go to Beirut; our strategy is to come up very soon
