The package, known to insiders as ‘Performance Plus’, is the cornerstone of Harbor’s latest recruitment drive and has been designed to attract and reward high-performing and motivate high potential brokers. “The recovery in Dubai’s real estate industry has provided Harbor Real Estate with the opportunity to expand its operations and line of professional services.
