    Speculation on UK Real estate market continues

    After relishing the beautiful Calabria Property for sale and also the Caribbean property, time now for getting back to something on the UK real estate news. Well, UK arguably is going through the same times as the US with a whole lot of people in need of assistance with their debts.

    We all know that UK Banks, like those in the US, are also no longer lending as they did before the credit crunch, and can you believe it that the number of real estate deals in the UK is down by around 90 percent, which is a huge figure.

    Let’s hope 2009 turns out to be a better year for the UK real estate markets by keeping our fingers crossed.

    Several speculation rounds for real estate property investment in UK


    Everyone ranging from a novice to real estate property investment expert are making their own set of predictions; some coming up with mere speculation, while others drawing inferences after through research.

    For example, UK property surely seems to be a pretty lucrative sector for overseas investors as the ongoing fluctuations in the world’s currency exchanges continues.

    Hassan Alaghband, director at Balli, said: “The argument for an influx of overseas investment is compelling when you combine a 30% fall in the value of the pound with, in some cases, a similar fall in property values.”

    “Inward investment will help bring an increase in liquidity to the market, which will be an important factor in the recovery of the residential and commercial property markets in the UK,” he added.

    KARACHI: Local builders


    KARACHI: Local builders in Pakistan are having a field day as the newly introduced projects all over Pakistan have received tremendous positive response marking the first signs of real estate sector revival in the country.
    Real estate agents and builders said that though prices continue to remain low owing to recession - the demand for property is increasing as investors are coming back home after trying their luck in the Gulf.

    Senior vice-president of Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry Sub-committee on Housing and Construction Munir Sultan predicts that the prices of properties will remain stable for the time being and will only hike after March.

    Estate agents and experts say that the buyers of these properties are investors having money stashed in local and foreign banks and following the global credit crunch feared for their savings.

    "These are ordinary well-to-do people of our society who liquidated their bank savings and opted for safe heaven investment in real estate. Properties are sound investments as no one can steal them from you and more importantly because regardless of the political or economical conditions, land assets do eventually gain value with time," Israr Ahmed, a realtor, says.

    He further said that Pakistan urgently needs to work on its investors’ confidence and the government should take steps to clear the country of its black economy that is working parallel to the legal system.

    He advised the government to introduce a law similar to UAE’s Escrow account concept, which provides investors peace of mind over their investments and helps reduce fraud cases.

    However, Sultan went on to say that Defence Housing Authority in Lahore, Islamabad and Karachi will not witness any changes both in terms of revival and price fluctuations as "the demands in these areas were artificially created" particularly by stock exchange investors.

    "These investors purchased plots in great numbers and artificially pushed up the prices and, therefore, they are not accounted for in the overall country’s real estate movements.

    DHA properties investment rules are also quite different from the rest of the country," he continued.

    In Karachi, residential projects with ground floor commercial shops in Scheme 33, near Super Highway are the most well received ones according to most estate agents in the localities of Pakistan Engineers Co-operative Housing Society, Gulistan-e-Jauhar and Gulshan-e-Iqbal.

    Masood Khan of Khan Estate Agency and Ashok Kumar of Ashok Builders speak of similar results in Hyderabad. They say that there has been a hike in residential projects and shopping complexes in their city.

    "The idea of commercial projects has especially gained momentum and there are increasing number of shopping plazas that have been introduced" Kumar said. Latifabad, Heerabad, Saddar and the area around Isra University have witnessed the maximum projects, Khan says.

    Similarly, Basit Mahmood, a project director of Globiz in Lahore, says that his city is also experiencing a revived interest in empty plots and constructed projects and real estate related advertisements have popped up across the city’s billboard, cable televisions and newspapers.

    KPT Office and Commercial Tower


    K P T. is constructing office tower in the near vicinity of the K P T Office. The tower shall be 60 storey high on 6,600 sq.m. area. Estimated cost of the tower is Rs. 6 billion and presently consultants for its design are being appointed.
    There is a dearth of world-class recreational facilities in the city. So KPT is offering a Joint Venture project to establish a 1947 ft high Port Tower with commercial cum recreational center. Integrating into Karachi’s skyline, the main feature of the venture shall be commercial complex, residential estate, recreational facilities and resorts along with a viewing gallery offering a panoramic view of the coastline and the city. The Tower is planned to be located at the Clifton shoreline. Presently proposals invited through press from the interested firms are under study

    Dubai Skyscraper

    Al Salam Tecom Tower, Dubai, UAE
    -
    Architects: Atkins



    The Al Salam Tecom Tower is a mixed-use building located within Dubai’s energetic Technology, Electronic, Commerce and Media (TECOM) Free Zone. The building is divided into three distinct vertical zones and is supported on a podium which extends from the ground level to the sixth floor. Accommodated within the podium is the entrance lobby, a retail mall, a food court, meeting rooms, a health club with lap pool and associated car parking facilities.



    Moving upwards, the seventh to the 21st floors are devoted to 225 serviced apartments configured on five standard, seven deluxe and three presidential floors. Open plan offices occupy the remaining 23 floors terminating at the 46th floor immediately below the inclined roof. Projecting balconies and the inclined colour separation ‘drawn’ across the office façade add to the imagery of the tower.

    Dynamic Architecture

    Welcome to a new and innovative architecture perspective.

    It’s called Dynamic Architecture. Isn’t life about dynamics as well? Our buildings keep moving, forever changing their shape to better fit your imagination. And to better fit nature as well. Our buildings follow the sun and move to the wind. So it’s nature itself that gives them a full energy supply. In return, we pay nature more respect, building our towers with a ready-made technology for a more efficient and environment friendly implementation. Our architecture rotates 360° for a wider vision of the world, of nature, of the future, of life. This is our vision. Become a visionary yourself.

    Dynamic Architecture buildings keep modifying their shape. As each floor rotates separately, the form of the building changes constantly; you may not see the same building twice. Dynamic architecture marks a new era in architecture. This new approach, based on motion dynamics, is in fact a challenge to traditional architecture that until now was based on gravity. Dynamic Architecture buildings will become the symbol of a new philosophy that will change the look of our cities and the concept of living. From now on, buildings will have a fourth new dimension TIME. Buildings will not be confined to rigid shapes; construction will have a new approach and flexibility. Cities will change faster than we ever imagined.

    This fourth dimension has been the essence of David Fisher’s work so far. The concept has already generated considerable interest internationally, from political leaders and city councils.
    The homes we live IN and the way we live are also set to change drastically with this innovative architecture. Our buildings will no more remain the ‘fossilized imagination’ of the architect; they will change, constantly bringing new views and experiences to us with time; nor can the architect’s pencil impose an environment on us. Each building has its own will and freedom.

    The construction method and the ability to produce energy on its own are two of the most outstanding features of Dynamic Architecture buildings. These buildings are made of prefabricated units, custom-made in a workshop, to fit very high quality standards. Such a process itself can guarantee cost savings of about 20 %, a factor that will have a huge impact on the global real restate industry.
    Compared to traditional buildings, Dynamic Architecture requires fewer people on site, which means less risk of human casualties; construction is faster and cost is significantly lower.

    In fact each of the three innovations of Dynamic Architecture - changing shapes, industrial production of units and self-production of clean energy, all protected by a world wide patent pending registration - can offer a host of benefits to construction and real estate industry.
    Dynamic Architecture buildings will have path-breaking safety features and electronic control systems along with their futuristic design and unique luxury finishing.

    world’s first moving building,


    Construction of the world’s first moving building, a 80-storey tower with revolving floors which give it an ever-shifting shape, is due to begin.

    The Dynamic Tower, which will be built in Dubai, will feature 80 pre-fabricated apartments, spinning independently of one another.

    “It’s the first building that rotates, moves, and changes shape,” said David Fisher, the tower’s architect.

    “This building never looks the same, not once in a lifetime,” he added.

    The innovative, 420-metre (1,378-foot) building’s apartments would spin a full 360 degrees, at voice command, around a central column by means of 79 giant power-generating wind turbines located between each floor.

    The slender would be energy self-sufficient as the turbines would produce enough electricity to power the entire building and even feed extra power back into the grid, said the Italian architect at the unveiling of the project in New York.

    The apartments, which will take between one and three hours to make a complete rotation, will cost from $3.7m to $36m.

    There are also plans to build a similar, 70-story skyscraper in Moscow.

    “I call these buildings designed by time, shaped by life,” said the Florence-based architect. “These buildings will open our vision all around, to a new life.”

    The skyscraper will cost an estimated $700m to build and should be up and running in Dubai in 2010.

    The Landmark Building


    The landmark building will sit in Karachi Port as one of the anchor schemes of attempts by the owners, the Karachi Port Trust, to construct a landmark commercial building that can act as a central anchor for future urban development.Within will be 102,000 square metres of office space taking up almost 60 of the bottom floors of the 81 floor tower. The top 21 storeys will be a new five star hotel that includes 30 serviced apartments and swimming pool.With their design Aedas have played on that increasingly modern skyscraper cliché of a torqueing tower. The Karachi Port Tower is effectively helical in shape but the use of difference façade treatments ranging from totally smooth skinned to horizontal rings every few floors marking the progression in height. Smooth glass curls around the building terminating in a pointed semi-transparent façade overrun at the top pushing the height over 300 metres tall.The sharp-eyed will notice that in addition to the main tower there is a staggered and substantially smaller building of a similar design included that also has glazed skin and a similar curving shape.This will accommodate a further 280 serviced apartments, 70 bog-standard ones and a 10,000 square metre shopping mall at ground level. In addition there will be parking for 2500 cars and conference facilities for 1200 delegates.Other firms involved in the massive project are Mott Macdonald and MM Pakistan who will all be teaming up to get work on site underway for April 2007, a very quick lead-in time for a decision announced only a matter of weeks before.

    Quick House Sale


    A quick house sale is not easy even when there is a bouyant property market, in times of slow-down, or worse still when prices are falling, achieving a quick sale is almost impossible.
    So what do you do when the property market slows down and it gets very difficult to sell a house or other property? If its a situation where you are looking to sell and move somewhere else not far away then it may be something you can wait out for the market to change. But there are many cases where people really do need a quick house sale. These situations can occur where (sadly) people are divorcing and need to sell their house or fault to free up equity so they can buy new separate homes, it may be that someone is relocating for a new job, or maybe emigrating oversees. In other cases it may be due to a long property chain where everyone is waiting on one buyer. If you want a really quick house sale then try RepayMortgage.co.uk, they provide a range of services for quick house sales.
    Whatever the reason there are ways of achieving a quick house sale. There are now companies that specialise in providing this service. These companies will usually buy the property, house or flat at a discount to the actual market value and then hold on to the property until it can be sold at a later date. In effect they are taking on the risk of any downturn in property prices, finance interest costs, and the buy and sell costs. This can be a great option for people looking to fee up their equity or break that never ending property chain.

    Singapore Authority (PSA).



    KARACHI (February 02 2009): Viability of the $250 million Gwadar Port project is in hot water, as the Ministry of Defence (MoD) has refused to transfer 584-acre "defence land" to Gwadar Port Authority (GPA) for establishment of the long-awaited Free Zone. Further, MoD has also turned down a request from the ministry of ports and shipping for a free-of-cost transfer of the said land to GPA, which as per Concession Agreement would hand over it to Port of Singapore Authority (PSA).
    It must be recalled that under Concession Agreement the Government of Pakistan (GoP) was required to hand over 923 hectares (2281 acres) land to PSA, the concessionaire and operator of Gwadar deep sea port, by June 2008 on lease basis for developing a Free Zone at East Bay of Gwadar. According to well-placed sources, MoD commenting on a summary moved by the Ministry of Ports and Shipping to Prime Minister for allowing transfer of the said land to GPA, had cited "technical, strategic and geographical" reasons for its refusal.
    They said the MoD had contended that as per Defence Land (Acquisition Custody and Relinquishment) Rules 1944 the land could not be transferred on gratis basis, as requested by the ministry of ports and shipping, to an "autonomous" body like GPA.
    The defence ministry, the sources said, had also backed last year’s PN’s demand for the payment of Rs 7008 million (Rs 1200 million per acre) for the land in question.
    In the support of its argument, the ministry said that the said land was transferred by the Government of Balochistan to PN in 1980 on ownership basis, they said.
    However, showing generosity MoD had linked a free-of-cost transfer of the disputed land to Prime Minister’s approval in favour of ministry of ports and shipping, said the sources.
    They said recently MoD had taken a "new stance" on the lingering issue and had said that out of 584 acres land, which is at present in possession of the naval forces, only 30 acres could be made available for the development of road-rail-link leading to the Free Zone at Gwadar Port.
    They said according to MoD the remaining 554 acres land was "essentially required by Pakistan Navy from technical, strategical and geographical point of view".
    According to sources the ministry of ports and shipping, where change of faces was rampant and had become almost a permanent phenomenon, may be in a difficult situation, as it had to convince the Prime Minister who had okayed recommendations of MoD on the fate of Free Zone land.
    It may be recalled that former President (Musharraf) and Prime Minister (Shaukat Aziz) on February 2, 2007 had also directed hand over of the 584 acres land to GPA for the said purpose as soon as possible.

    Kirra: The Gold Coast's Hidden Gem

    With a casual ambience, pristine beaches and some of the best surfing in the world, the Gold Coast suburb of Kirra is an outdoor lover's paradise.

    Kirra: The Gold Coast's Hidden Gem

    Located on the Queensland/New South Wales border, and only minutes from Tweed Heads and Coolangatta, the Gold Coast's suburb of Kirra is famous for its long surf beaches and relaxed atmosphere. Surfers from across the globe recognise Kirra's surf breaks as some of the best in the world, and it is considered a training ground for many of Australia’s surf greats.

    Kirra Point and Duranbah offer excellent waves for both experienced surfers and beginners. They are also a great place to simply kick back and watch the world's top surfers ride the big waves. If you're new to surfing, hiring a longboard for the day is a great way to experience the fun of surfing, without the need for all the advanced technical skills.

    Due to its proximity to Gold Coast Airport, Kirra is a popular weekend getaway for residents of both NSW and QLD. Once a sleepy seaside community, its growing popularity has resulted in the opening of increasing high-end cafés and restaurants to cater for the rising tourism trade.

    Australia's Gold Coast a Winter Wonderland

    Defined by its ability to provide wholesome family fun for all ages, Australia's Gold Coast remains an oasis of entertainment for people planning to take holidays this winter.

    Australia's Gold Coast a Winter Wonderland

    A welcome respite from the cooler weather is guaranteed and just one of the many advantages of booking your next Gold Coast getaway.

    Rest and relaxation, wining and dining, hinterland escapes, active pursuits and an ever evolving events calendar confirm the Gold Coast as a year long party destination. Make no mistake paradise is waiting and can be fully experienced in fun-filled ways this winter. Even a quick surf or swim at one of the City’s enticing beaches isn’t out of the question as this sun-soaked sanctuary welcomes one and all. You too can warm to the delights of a true winter wonderland and gain an appreciation of all there is to see and do.

    For the more adventurous it’s worth noting the waters along the Gold Coast are commonly referred to as Australia’s Hump Back Highway, with more than 25,000 whale viewing opportunities available last year during the annual migration up and down the east coast. The Gold Coast whale watching season is the longest in the country running from June through to November and provides a fantastic opportunity to get up close and personal with the largest living mammals on Earth.

    Few things capture the essence of Darling Harbour in 2009 like the fact that a crocodile was tranquillised and flown in for its opening ceremony.

    Darling Harbour - what's not to love about it?

    In the 21 years since that day, Sydney's largest public venue has become a plastic fantastic home to the world's largest movie screen, one of the largest casinos in the Southern Hemisphere, and played host to everyone from David Beckham to Queen Elizabeth.

    But for some, that tranquillised croc symbolises the excess and artifice that saturate this place.

    Over 300 million visitors have passed through Darling Harbour in the past 21 years, but have any of these visitors actually gazed at her harbour and felt love? Will she ever make anyone feel the kind of inspiration and nostalgia others have for Circular Quay, the Botanic Gardens or the Opera House?

    Real Estate Rental Property

    Ethan Roberts, in an article about real estate rental property at TycoonResearch.com, talks about the Florida real estate market and rental property investing. I appreciate this article because it's not all talk, but has real numerical data to back up the author's statements.

    I won't copy his charts, so go to the article to see them. But, the data presented shows that, while home sales have been falling steadily over the last two years, rentals on the MLS have been doing just the opposite. Knowing that only a fraction of all rentals actually move through a Multiple Listing Service, we can assume those numbers are far greater over the entire market. Let's see:

    • Fewer homes are selling, so fewer homeowners
    • More homes are renting, so more rental demand
    • Home prices are falling, with foreclosure and short sale opportunities

    Should I Refinance My Rental Property

    Q. After I relocated to California nearly 4 years ago I refinanced my house in Colorado in anticipation of selling it the following year once my entire family had moved out west. I tried to sell the house for over a year and ended up making it a rental. Now my home in Colorado for renthas been a rental for over 2 years. I went to my current mortgage lender and tried to refinance but the rate they were offering for the investment property is high. I was wondering if there was a way for me to reduce my monthly payments on that mortgage. My salary is $125,000 and my FICO is 750 but I feel like I’m locked into this bad loan with no possibility of refinancing. Any suggestions?

    A. It was recently estimated that nearly 20% of homes in America are underwater and that number is much higher in markets where selling is even more difficult. The problem with your property has to do with the fact that it’s a non-owner occupied property. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac add 1.75 points as a pricing hit to loans on properties such as yours and that applies to all lenders. This rule alone will probably make the cost of refinancing out-weight the benefits. On a positive note the COF index is 2.003 meaning that your interest rate should be in the mid 4% range. Hang in there this economic situation will not last forever.
