About elysian

Masood Naseeb moved to Dubai after completing a BA (Hons) in Business and Economics and Business Administration at Canada's prestigious University of Windsor in Canada, Ontario. Naseeb went on to obtain his Canadian Property Management Certification from the Real Estate Institute of Canada.

Recognized for his efforts in establishing the regions real estate market as one of the most credible and prominent markets in the world, Masood Naseeb was elected by CEO Middle East in the top 25 most influential people in the property industry.

Since September 2006 he has been the Chief Executive Officer of elysian Group. Masood Naseeb founded the company following various successful investments into Dubai on behalf of various multi-national corporations, government affiliations, and private speculators whilst an officer for a leading billion dollar corporation, Naseeb Group, which has won over 29 American government contracts since its own incorporation.

In 2006 Naseeb founded elysian Real Estate with its head office located in Dubai's prominent Emaar Gold & Diamond Park on Sheikh Zayed Road. Beginning with a small team of brokers, Naseeb paid particular attention to detail in the property selected for their portfolio and his team's management of client relations. After expanding the real estate team exponentially over the first year of operation to meet the demands of the market, Naseeb began to look overseas for lucrative investments to offer their clients.

Following 3 years of rapid expansion, at the age of 25, Masood Naseeb had transformed the elysian Group into the 3rd largest real estate company in Dubai, and in Abu Dhabi boasted the largest brokerage team. As a sign of his ambition, Naseeb launched elysian International in 2008, focusing purely on investment properties. Naseeb's visionary approach was commended in numerous press articles. With a team of international portfolio managers set to finding the best investment opportunities around the world, Masood has turned elysian international to a very reputable and reliable company.

Masood Naseeb was considered a risk taker, when he expanded his corporation during the global economic crisis, but this decision later proved correct. Naseebs ability to diversify and experience with the global market saw his company remain profitable throughout Dubai's economic instability. By the end of 2009, Naseeb was responsible for 200 staff throughout 3 different countries, 100 of them in the UAE alone.

After leaving School at the age of 16, Paul had his mind set that he would achieve his child hood dream and start his career as a golf professional. At the young age of 17 Paul turned professional alongside studying a 3 year Higher Diploma course in Business and also Psychology at the PGA of Europe HQ in Birmingham. Playing golf as a professional was Paul's dream accomplished at a very early age which included playing professional tournaments all around the world. By the time Paul was 21, he was a fully qualified member of the PGA, an achievement which most other golf professionals achieve (if good enough) when in their thirties. When Paul turned 21, alongside playing tournaments, he took up the position of General Manager at the largest Golf operation in the midlands, where he managed a team of over 60 staff from shop assistants through to the f&b staff. In the 6 years Paul was in this position he increased turnover year on year and increased profit averaging over 2 Million GBP per year. Paul has a gift for business and a talent to get the very best out of his staff, Paul puts all of his successes to the team he has around him and focuses on their development to benefit the development of the company.

Paul purchased his first investment property at the ripe young age of only 18, and from then on he has added to his personal portfolio in countries stretching from Spain through to America. In September 2007, Paul started his journey fulfilling his real passion – real estate and joined a leading property company in Abu Dhabi. Paul was headhunted for the position of General Manager and in his 2 year reign he took the company's turnover to a whole new level, increasing the turnover 10 fold in a short space of time. Paul's theory is to lead by example, he is extremely professional, he knows how to get the best of out of his staff and is extremely driven to succeed. Failure is not an option or either a concern. In June 2009, Paul joined the elysian group as Managing Director, opening up a whole new market for elysian in the capital of the UAE, Abu Dhabi. Since opening the office, Paul has built the best team that there is in the capital and this is reflected by being recognised as the most professional real estate company there is. Achievements such as winning the exclusive contract for sales and marketing of the prestigious AMAYA Towers project in Al Reem Island and the exclusive 5 start resort of the Aphrodite Hills in Cyprus is just the beginning of what promises to be a very successful and lucrative road for the whole of the elysian group.

Now in the capacity of C.E.O. Paul has helped in the development of the operations here in the UAE as well as the opening the offices in Rio De Janeiro as well as Mayfair in London. Paul is now working on the progress and continued development of the business and making sure that all business units remain focused to giving the highest level of service to the clients we deal with. Paul is always looking for the next opportunity for elysian and the next market where he feels there is an opportunity to provide our services and expertise. Paul is fully focused on taking elysian to the very top within the real estate and development markets.

In this climate service is everything, this is how you will win loyalty and it is so refreshing to hear that our 2 offices worked together and offered this level of service.

Amazing.

We won this contract by offering the highest level of service in the market and to receive the feedback that I did on 2 of our staff members is exactly what I want to hear, and for that I thank you both.

Please keep up the good work, earning commission is always great but to get such nice feedback is very nice too and it's something I want to hear more of over the coming weeks months and years.

My love for Real estate is not something I was born with. It took me 7years to experience and explore to discover my passion. I've Worked as a sales person for 7years in various fields. This discovery to real estate began 2 years ago when I accepted a position as a sales executive at real estate company. My job was to Sell properties which were just on a piece of a paper. All that was required was reading a script, word for pictures, to potential buyers. Yet, after 6months of working, I still didn't know important details about the market, like what it looked like, and how it actually was. By shifting to the ready property market my ability to convey to people what I was offering improved dramatically. I felt more confident to adlib on the sales pitch. My sales steadily improved and in my 2nd year I was Awarded as the Top sales person out of 22 employees in 2010. Being Active in the market for the past 2 years has helped me gain a lot of knowledge and develop my skills as an agent. My knowledge varies in terms of different properties in different areas. Dubai Marina is the area where I bring in my expertise knowledge.

But my long-term career goal is to broaden my exposure to the world of Real Estate.

My experiences thus far have given me broad exposure to the business world, but there are still innumerable areas that I wish to explore and conquer. I view my accomplishments and experiences thus far as the tip of the iceberg to what I can achieve, I am still confident, determined, dedicated, focused and quite positive with the results I will bring in my life and the company.
