Margaret Lynch – Managing Director and Founder of Homes 2 Rent

Maggie Lynch, who has many years experience in residential lettings, property management and relocation is the founding inspiration of the company. Living in Qatar since 1995, Maggie has had the unique opportunity to intimately know and understand the real estate market in Doha as well as the very special needs of her clientele. Maggie remembers well when she first began the task of relocating to Doha twenty years ago, a process that began a long time before she arrived”. At first we were all excited about the thought of moving to the Middle East. We were fully entrenched in the hundreds of details that had to be done. It wasn't until the first morning that my husband left for work that the reality hit me of where we' d come and I quickly became overwhelmed. Suddenly my confidence that we'd made the right decision began to evaporate I felt isolated, lonely and I wanted to go home". Since those early days Maggie has realised she was not on her own in her feelings of being unsettled. Dr. Betsy Wells a family therapist who has lived overseas since 1992 states, "It's not just the employee who signs that contract, often it's an entire family. Typically it's the woman who has the most difficult adjustment and even the most confident women can succumb to feelings of vulnerability and depression". Due to of her early experiences in Doha, Maggie launched Homes 2 Rent because she understands the needs of people in transition and her company is unique in Qatar as it offers the Welcome to Doha Services to address those needs that are not catered for by others
