Park Towers development now rising at one floor every week Luxury lifestyle provider DAMAC Properties, has announced that its iconic twin tower development – Park Towers - at DIFC is currently rising by a floor every week. The Park Towers mixed use development, including residential commercial office and retail offerings is now starting to appear on the DIFC landscape with the North Tower at floor five and the South Tower at level three. The seven podium levels have already been completed and the distinctive shape of the towers is starting to be revealed. Contractors Shapoorji Pallonji are currently completing a floor every six days – and are making good progress with the building which is expected to be completed next year. The impressive rate of progress at DIFC comes just a few weeks after DAMAC Properties also announced that its Ocean Heights tower at Dubai Marina had already reached the 37th floor with contractors completing a floor every five days. Park Towers is DAMAC Properties’ only development at the rapidly expanding new financial centre of Dubai and will offer more than 400 apartments in a range of sizes. These will be combined with ten floors of commercial space – three for shops and seven which will offer state of the art offices. The building will offer freehold facility for UAE nationals and expatriates. In addition it will have excellent connectivity with direct pedestrian access to the DIFC retail spine and financial centre and within easy walking distance of the several metro stations serving the area. By car the Sheik Zayed or Al Khail roads are minutes away. Commenting on the Park Towers construction progress, CEO of DAMAC Properties Peter Riddoch said: ‘DIFC has already attracted huge interest from world renowned firms who want to establish a base in Dubai and we designed Park Towers with these very companies and their employees in mind. “To be able to live at the heart of a financial district and be at the centre of the action with stock markets, banks and financial institutions just minutes away is both convenient and important to the people who work in this sector. ‘However to combine with this with well designed apartments set in lush green landscaping with walkways and waterways helps to creates an ambience of home and a sense that you can still get away from the stresses of every day – even in the middle of a buzzing city like Dubai. ‘In addition DIFC already has a number of parks, cafes and entertainment facilities so it offers the best of both worlds to those customers who chose to live there.’ Each apartment at Park Towers has been designed to optimise views with its curved fully glazed façade. There will also be a number of hotel type services which will be available for residents including a restaurant, room service, regular housekeeping and also individual post boxes. For those looking to extend their working day there will also be high-speed Internet access, faxes, photocopying and a round the clock manned help desk. A banquet hall and meeting room facility designed for private parties, gatherings, special occasions and business meetings has also been included together with a residents health club with tennis court, male and fem,ale changing rooms, saunas, steam rooms, swimming pools, gym, crèche, children’s play area, barbeque areas within landscaped gardens . Mr Riddoch said that the progress at Park Towers was now typical of the emphasis being placed on delivery by DAMAC Properties. He said:’ We are working hard with our contractors to ensure they understand how important it is for us to move forward in a positive direction together. ‘In these times of market rumour and uncertainty we feel that there is no better way to demonstrate our commitment to our customers than by achieving the level of progress seen at Park Towers – and also recently at Ocean Heights. This sends out a strong signal to customers that it is business as usual.’

Buying and Renting Apartments in Dubai
If you have good amount of money in your pocket and are firm believer of globalization with a certain taste for real state and traveling then Dubai is the only place on the Earth where you can accomplish all your desired goals to be completed, as far as it is concerned with investment or buying an apartment in Dubai.
Apparently, there are many reasons that led to the real estate market in Dubai to grow manifold. First of all, the development of oil industry since the discovery of oil in 1966 led to the immaculate development of Dubai in every sphere of life. As UAE is not much advanced, technologically, therefore, it had to seek assistance from many foreign companies which have made their project sites in UAE and Dubai as well. This resulted into the great influx of professionals as well as migrant labors in Dubai, approximately 80% population of Dubai is Migrant.
More population gets added in Dubai in form of tourists who come to Dubai enjoying desert, shopping and beaches in Dubai. Tax free goods including golden jewelry up to expensive cars is great craze for people around the globe as they frequently visit Dubai for buying in shopping festivals and malls in the city.
This huge crowd of human mass led to the need of residential space in form of hotels and Apartments in Dubai that led to appropriate growth of real estate property in Dubai. Presently Dubai has all prominent chains of hotels and every big builder from the Globe in real estate industry.
One can have two choices for owing an apartment in Dubai; one can either rent or permanently buy them as according to his need. For renting one can choose either any of one from apartments, hotels, hotel apartments and villas on short term basis on one's requirement and available budget. Renting a furnished apartment on self catering basis is very cheaper option than a hotel to stay when a tourist intend to stay in Dubai for a longer period of time, if compared to a holiday package. Dubai Marina is suited place with a cosmopolitan feeling for apartments in Dubai for foreign tourists.
As for buying apartments even take initial steps after buying apartments from a real estate agent of repute. An agent can assist you in finding, researching, investigating and buying a property of your choice within budget. The most preferred location to buy a property in Dubai are Jumeirah, Meadows, Dubai Marina, Deira, Arabian Ranches, Business Bay or the Golden Beaches, Dubai Palm Island, The Springs, Emirates Hills,etc.

Dubai Law aims at Stability
Agents and investors in property in Dubai have been mulling over changes to the Emirate’s real estate laws that are designed to make the buying process safer and more transparent for investors, as well as bringing some degree of stability to the markets amid the financial turmoil gripping the rest of the world.
Three new laws have taken effect in the past few weeks, and all were published on 31st August. The laws concern the areas of off-plan sales, mortgage laws and property disputes.
Law 13, covering the sale of off-plan property in Dubai, states that all transactions must be registered with the Dubai Land Department. This means that developers can no longer launch and sell developments before they have taken possession of the land and been granted the necessary building permits. “Whereas previously you had some developers launching and advertising projects for sale before they had even taken possession of the land, now they will be forced to hold off”, according to Lynnette Brown, a partner at law firm Al Tamimi.
The law also gives buyers and investors added confidence in what they are buying for the future. As all sales now can only be completed after the plans and permissions have been lodged and registered, there can be little deviation between what buyers expect and the finished product.
The law pertaining to fees and charges for the sale of property in Dubai has also been amended. Developers will no longer be able to charge a transfer fee to clients, but may now charge an administration fee. This fee, which previously could be levied as a percentage of the property value, is now to be capped at a maximum of 5,000 Dirham.
The law also sets out defined timelines for different contingencies – for example, if a buyer defaults on a property the developer now can report it to the Land Department and begin a process of informing the buyer and ultimately cancelling the contract and putting the property back onto the market. This will provide added stability in the current market conditions.
The final law change is to do with the administering of mortgages in Dubai, which can only be issued by a UAE-registered bank and must be registered with the Land Department. The law also applies retrospectively to mortgage arrangements already in place, meaning that they must be registered or will be considered null and void. This extension of the mortgage laws has been hailed as a positive move, helping to reduce speculative pressure on the property markets

Reasons to Buy Dubai
Ten reasons Dubai real estate will continue to boom
Dubai real estate may well be the next asset class bubble to be created by inappropriate interest rate levels set by the US, alongside Hong Kong property. But there are at least 10 good reasons to think the present realty boom in Dubai will continue for rather longer than many outside observers believe possible.
They may seem high now, but property prices will continue to rise
1. Dubai mortgage rates are around 8.5 per cent and have yet to adjust to the recent US rate cuts, which they have to do because of the dollar peg to the dirham. Just a couple of years ago local mortgage rates of seven per cent were available. Therefore the downward pressure on the cost of home finance is clear, and if the local mortgage market follows Hong Kong and becomes more competitive, then interest rates could go much lower, making it significantly cheaper to buy than rent. Real interest rates are already negative due to high local inflation.
2. Rental yields in the Dubai market of 7-10 per cent are abnormally high by international standards. Rents are unlikely to fall in a booming market, so it is more likely that rising capital values will gradually pressure yields down towards global levels. There is no reason why rental yields should be higher in a booming city like Dubai than in a city where the economic outlook is poorer.
3. The hype about Dubai development projects has admittedly duped even this skeptical correspondent over the years. The fact is that far less supply is coming on stream than promised by overenthusiastic developers, due partly to limited supplies of manpower and materials. Dubai Properties is one of the biggest and has just said it will deliver 5,000 units to the freehold market in 2008 which is not nearly enough to meet surging demand.
4. Dubai house prices are still low in absolute terms in comparison to other global cities with similar salary levels. The HSBC survey of house prices in comparison to per capita GDP put Dubai and Abu Dhabi near the bottom. This is a historic anomaly that will be eliminated by price rises.
5. Six years ago, when Dubai freehold began, it was a market without any formal legislation and regulatory infrastructure. Now it has world-class laws, a state-of-the-art land registry and a strongly-led regulatory authority. Hope has been replaced by experience.
6. The Dubai Financial Market crashed in 2006 pushing local investors into property as an alternative. It recovered in late 2007, but is now again trending downwards with global stocks, and has become highly volatile, shifting over 10 per cent in a day. Expect stock market participants to again seek a more stable alternative.
7. Indeed, the absence of investment alternatives is a major theme for 2008. Global stock markets have had their worst January in history. Recent US interest rate cuts leave deposits paying 2.8 per cent. This makes Dubai real estate look attractive as an alternative. Where else offers such a return?
8. In the same way that the local stock market crash attracted foreign bargain hunters to invest last year, foreign investors in search of yield are also increasingly investing in Dubai real estate. Problems in the UK housing market might be dissuading some buyers, but large numbers of oil-rich Russians, for example, are now buying in Dubai.
9. Dubai still has some undeveloped market niches in real estate, such as holiday lets and fractional ownership, which are big and even dominant market phenomena in many beach resorts around the world. This source of higher rental yield on property has therefore yet to be fully tapped.
10. The Dubai Government has been the most proactive developer in the emirate, and its recent legislation and regulatory initiatives suggest that this support is not only likely to continue, but will respond appropriately to any adverse market developments.

Dubai Leads Global Property Investment Markets
The volume of property sales in Dubai is poised to rise as more global investors, shifting their focus away from markets hit by credit crunch, seek to enter the Gulf markets, a leading global property investment.
Dubai, which registered the greatest improvement in real estate transparency globally over the past two years, is projected to record a 55.2 per cent surge in property deals to hit Dh717 billion in 2008 from Dh462 billion in 2007
With credit crisis hitting real estate markets in the US and Europe, many investors are eyeing Gulf markets, particularly Dubai
Dubai's position as the most transparent of the MENA markets placed it ahead of other emerging economies such as those of the BRIC Markets (Brazil, Russia, India and China).
Better than China, India and most of Russia, Dubai's transparency index score exceeds the other BRIC markets
Transparent markets as those that are open and easier to do business with the components of transparency encompassing transaction processes, the regulatory and legal environment, market fundamentals and performance measurements.
