Local Expertise. Global Connections.
Makhabat Kassenova is a Senior Global Property Consultant at Dubai Sotheby’s International Realty (Dubai) – and she was hired to supercharge the company’s outreach to Russian speakers. Makhabat has been advising Russian-speaking HNWIs / UHNWIs in the UAE for over a decade, having been recruited from Kazakhstan’s banking sector in 2010 for a finance director role in Dubai. Makhabat comes to prestige real estate armed with strong financial and business credentials, having recently pivoted from CFO-type functions, market entry, and market expansion to prestige real estate. Makhabat’s connectivity within the Dubai real estate ecosystem, her top-tier finance skill set – and her access to luxury properties exclusively available to Dubai Sotheby’s International Realty – make her the professional that every prospective buyer would want by his or her side when purchasing prestige property in the UAE. With both a BA and an MBA from one of the best universities in the former Soviet Union, Makhabat’s vibrant personality and energetic communication style in multiple languages means that her capabilities are not exclusively relevant to Russian speakers, but more broadly relevant to any buyer seriously considering prestige real estate in Dubai.
