Sajan, also known as the '1% man' due to his firm's innovative 1% payment plan, mentioned that under this plan, homebuyers make a 20% down payment and 1% per month for the next 80 months. The property is delivered to the buyer in three years, and the balance payment is made to the company after the buyer has received possession of the property.
The company has had a successful run in Dubai, launching at least 12 projects in the last two years. However, Sajan expressed his interest in exploring other markets, including Abu Dhabi and Ras Al-Khaimah, in the future. He also hinted at the possibility of entering the Mumbai real estate market, although no concrete plans have been made yet.

The company is popular among Indian investors, with many hailing from North India, Mumbai, Gujarat, and South India. In fact, Indian investors make up almost 30-40% of the company's clientele.
Sajan expressed his admiration for the Mumbai real estate market, specifically the Bandra and Khar areas. However, he is cautious about introducing the 1% payment plan in Mumbai, citing the need to assess its feasibility in the local market.
