Whether or not we actually float is going to depend on market conditions at the time, appetite for real estate in the various sectors that we are representing and the actual need.&#8221;Mr Muhtadi said the company would consider Abu Dhabi, Dubai or London  to list shares.This week Bloom said it would start leasing 225 apartments at its Bloom Marina in the Al Bateen area of the capital.It is part of a plan to increase recurring revenue streams from about 50 per cent of total company sales to 65 per cent within two years. A 225-room Edition hotel and 50 serviced apartments at the project are due to open later this year.The company said that within a week it will have completed piling work on its 207 flats and 217 hotel apartments Park View project on Saadiyat Island and it was currently working on completing piling work and foundations at its 302 Soho Square apartments, also on Saadiyat Island. The company is set to start main construction on its 132 town house Faya scheme at its Bloom Gardens development close to Khalifa Park within two weeks. It is also about to start construction at its 686 apartment Bloom Heights project in Jumeirah Village Circle in Dubai.The company added that in 2017 it planned to press ahead with plans to open its first two MindChamps nurseries in the UAE in Bloom Gardens Abu Dhabi and Jumeirah in Dubai.It also plans to build a Dh500 million education campus in Barsha South in Dubai, which it expects to house the UAE&#8217;s first branch of New York-based international private Dwight School as well as a new Brighton College school, an Arabic language centre and a nursery.The news comes a week after Abu Dhabi-listed developer Eshraq said it would press ahead with its three debut projects in Dubai and Abu Dhabi after the company appointed a new management team led by Abu Dhabi Financial Group managing director and chief executive Jassim Alseddiqi.&#8221;Yes we have seen a market correction over the past year or so in Abu Dhabi but if you look at the development pipeline in Abu Dhabi and don&#8217;t count the projects on Yas Island or in Saadiyat, you can see that it is very, very small,&#8221; Mr Muhtadi added. &#8220;I believe there is a potential for an undersupply in Abu Dhabi in the future, especially in the city centre.&#8221;ssahoo@thenational.aeFollow The National&#8217;s Business section on Twitter&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource : thenational.ae&#013;<br \/>\nRead more&#8230;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thenational.ae\/business\/property\/abu-dhabi-developer-bloom-holding-considers-ipo-to-finance-projects\" target=\"_blank\">Abu Dhabi developer Bloom Holding considers IPO to finance projects<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#013; Bloom Holding, the Abu Dhabi-based developer is considering an IPO as one of a number&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"false","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-42301","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-property-news"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p75ss1-b0h","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":45734,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/bloom-and-foundation-sign-joint-venture-deal-to-build-staff-acconodation\/","url_meta":{"origin":42301,"position":0},"title":"Bloom and Foundation sign joint venture deal to build staff acconodation","date":"February 28, 2017","format":false,"excerpt":"\r The Abu Dhabi property developer Bloom Holding and Foundation Holdings have signed a joint venture to build middle management staff accommodation across the UAE and the Middle east region.The pair said that they expected the 50\/50 joint venture to spend Dh1 billion building about 4,000 staff accommodation apartments over\u2026","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Property News&quot;","img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":45742,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/bloom-and-foundation-sign-joint-venture-deal-to-build-staff-accommodation\/","url_meta":{"origin":42301,"position":1},"title":"Bloom and Foundation sign joint venture deal to build staff accommodation","date":"February 28, 2017","format":false,"excerpt":"\r The Abu Dhabi property developer Bloom Holding and Foundation Holdings have signed a joint venture to build middle management staff accommodation across the UAE and the Middle east region.The pair said that they expected the 50\/50 joint venture to spend Dh1 billion building about 4,000 staff accommodation apartments over\u2026","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Property News&quot;","img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":424,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/bloom-holding-boss-keeps-the-faith-in-abu-dhabis-housing-appeal\/","url_meta":{"origin":42301,"position":2},"title":"Bloom Holding boss keeps the faith in Abu Dhabi&#x2019;s housing appeal","date":"December 21, 2015","format":false,"excerpt":"\r \r Veteran developer Sameh Muhtadi was appointed the chief executive of Bloom Holding in April after a 30-year career at companies including Arabtec, Emaar Properties Misr and Orascom Contrack.
