House prices in the capital fell 4.4 per cent in annual terms, marking the biggest fall since August 2009, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said. Extending a period of weakness in the property since the Brexit vote more than three years ago, house price growth across the United Kingdom slowed to 1.2 per cent, matching February's six- year low. Some other surveys have suggested recently that the housing market might be past the worst of its slowdown. London house prices are now 6.4 per cent below their July 2017 peak, a disappointment to some homeowners but a much smaller fall than the 17.8 per cent peak-to-trough hit during the global financial crisis. Furthermore, the current downturn in the capital represents only a small hit given that London house prices have almost doubled since the financial crisis, leaving the city unaffordable for many buyers. Separate data from the ONS showed not only stable consumer price inflation but also a reduction in pipeline price pressures for British factories. Households, whose spending drives Britain's economy, have been helped by modest rates of inflation combined with the lowest unemployment rate in 44 years and rising wages. The ONS said producer input costs, which eventually feed through into prices on the high street, fell 0.3 per cent in annual terms in June, the first decline in three years.

HOW DO I ENSURE MY APARTMENT HANDOVER GOES SMOOTHLY?' Wednesday, July 17, 2019 I'm leaving the UAE at the end of this month. Can you give me a checklist for all the things I need to do to ensure handing over my apartment to the landlord goes smoothly. I have lived in a two-bedroom apartment in a tower in Jumeirah Lakes Towers for the last three years and want to ensure everything is done in the correct manner to secure my deposit. I also want to make sure the paperwork is in order ahead of my residence visa cancellation. I have a good relationship with the landlord but I still hear horror stories about when people move out. TM, Dubai The first thing that needs to be done is to inform the landlord that you will not be renewing your lease, for this I suggest you check your contract to see what the clauses say in terms of notice. Law 33 of 2008 amended Law 26 of 2007, which is the law that governs the relationship between landlords and tenants. The updated law did away with the need to give any notice when not renewing, however one must abide by the agreed terms in the rental contract which is binding. The property has to be returned in the same condition it was given at the start of the lease so if it was freshly painted and cleaned this is how you have to give it back. Ensure you repair any minor issues that fall under the tenant's responsibility as per your contract. Typically any maintenance items that require a cost less than Dh500 per item fall under the responsibility of the tenant. A few days before vacating, contact your utility companies explaining your departure. You will be given final bills for water, electricity, gas and cooling (if applicable) and internet/home services. Once all paid up, keep receipts and clearance letters/certificates for proof of nothing further outstanding. Don’t forget to visit your nearest happiness centre to cancel the Ejari too. Cancelling the Ejari is often a forgotten part of leaving a rented property by the tenant, mainly because it doesn't really affect the outgoing tenant as such. The Ejari cancellation is however very important for the landlord because a new Ejari cannot be issued until the old one is terminated. The cost to close the file is Dh40 and some landlords insist on the cancellation before releasing any residual tenancy deposit. Once all of the above is done, arrange for the landlord to visit the property with you just before departure in order to inspect it and organise for the return of your deposit. If one has already left the country, the landlord can send the remaining deposit owed through a bank transfer to the home country bank account of the tenant.

Customers will be able to buy villas, townhouses and apartments with no registration fee and payments spread over four to five years after handover for up to 60 per cent of the development value. The plan is applicable at its Mamsha, Jawaher, Yas Acres, Mayan, Alghadeer and Reflection developments. “Under the terms of the new post-handover payment plans, customers will be able to buy dream homes on beneficial terms at a choice of six prime developments in Abu Dhabi,” Maan Al Awlaqi, Executive Director, Commercial at Aldar said in a statement. The development comes as Abu Dhabi focuses on boosting the property market with a new real estate law that allows foreigners to own freehold property in designated zones. Earlier, ownership of property was only allowed to UAE and GCC nationals. Abu Dhabi government also launched a Dh50 billion Ghadan 21 programme that is expected to have a positive impact on the real estate sector in the emirate. Long-term visas are also being granted by the government for investors. In the first six months of this year, Abu Dhabi's real estate sector overall saw 10,000 transactions worth Dh31bn, according to a report by the Department of Urban Planning and Municipalities.

  • Dubai [Metro]Polis: Infrastructural Landscapes and Urban Utopia
    Dubai [Metro]polis: Infrastructural Landscapes and Urban Utopia When Dubai Metro was launched in 2009, it became a new catalyst for urban change but also a modern tool to interact with the city - providing a visual experience and an unprecedented perception of moving in space and time, almost at the edge between the imaginary and the real. By drawing on the traditional association between train, perception and the city we argue that the design and planning of Dubai Metro is intended as a signifier of modernity for the Gulf region, with its futuristic designs and in the context of the local socio-cultural associations. NADIA MOUNAJJED INTRODUCTION Abu Dhabi University For the last four decades, Dubai epitomized a model for post-oil Gulf cities and positioned itself as a subject for visionary thinking and urban experimentation. PAOLO CARATELLI During the years preceding 2008, Dubai became almost a site of utopia - evoking Abu Dhabi University a long tradition of prolific visionary thinking about the city – particularly 1970s utopian projects. Today skyscrapers, gated communities, man-made islands, iconic buildings and long extended waterfronts, dominate the cityscape. Until now, most of the projects are built organically within a fragmented urban order, often coexisting in isolation within a surrounding incoherence. When inaugu- rated in 2009, Dubai Metro marked the beginning of a new association between urbanity, mobility and modernity. It marked the start of a new era for urban mass transit in the Arabian Peninsula and is now perceived as an icon of the emirate’s modern urbanity (Ramos, 2010, Decker, 2009, Billing, n.
