Al Baraka Islamic Bank (AIB), a leading Bahraini financial institution specialising in the field of Islamic banking, has signed an agreement with Eskan Bank to launch exclusive financing offers for the residential units of Danat Al Baraka project. 

 

Located in Janusan, the Danat Al Baraka is one of the most prominent housing projects in the kingdom, featuring 211 modern villas with four different contemporary designs, each consisting of two floors with four rooms, a spacious hall, a kitchen and annex for a domestic worker, and a garage consisting of two parking spaces. 

 

The project, built on a 73,514-sq-m area, is considered the fifth in a series of Danat projects, which includes: Danat Al Madina, Danat Al Riffa, Danat Al Seef and Danat Al Lawzi.

 

Customers who are interested in purchasing a residential unit within the project will be able to do so starting from May 19, said the statement from AIB.

 

Eskan Bank has been signed up as the investment manager of the project, while its wholly-owned subsidiary Eskan Properties is the development manager.

 

Through this partnership, Al Baraka Islamic Bank aims to provide its customers with unprecedented real estate financing offers to help ease the process of owning a residential unit within the “Danat Al Baraka” project. 

 

On the financial offer, Danat Al Baraka Board Chairman Tariq Kazim said: "We are delighted to be partnering once again with Eskan Bank to ease the process for customers wishing to purchase residential units within the Danat Al Baraka project. 

 

Fatema AlAlawi, Head of Retail Banking at Al Baraka Islamic Bank, said: "This financing offer comes as part of Al Baraka’s continuous endeavours to provide diversified real estate financing solutions that exceed our customers’ expectations and facilitate the process of purchasing residential units."
