Wednesday, October 20th, 2010

Nakheel CEO Chris O’Donnell has confirmed the state-backed property developer will be recommencing 8 of their halted projects by the end of October following successful restructuring of its parent company’s (Dubai World) debts.

O’Donnell confirmed that construction work is to be “remobilized” at Al Furjan, Jumeirah Village, Jumeirah Park, Jumeirah Heights Clusters, Veneto, Badhrah, Jumeirah Islands Mansions and International City.

Futher to this announcement, Nakheel has also confirmed their intention to extend their portfolio of shopping malls to five and extend the facilities on offer at their two existing malls, Dragon Mart in International City and Ibn Battuta Mall. The new malls will be in extisting developments that are already completed including Discovery Gardens and Jumeirah Village.

This announement is positive news for the Dubai property market, as completion of the Nakheel developments is critical to a recovery in the broader Dubai real estate sector.

There is still a long way to go, but this is positive news and investors in the 8 projects that are going to be re-started will be very happy to hear that their investments are going to be re-started and hopefully finished in the not too distant future.

5 new stations now open on Dubai Metro

Saturday, October 16th, 2010

The red line on the Dubai Metro is almost complete, with 26 of the 29 stations now open.

The latest additions to open yesterday were: Jumeirah Lakes Towers, Nakheel, Business Bay, First Gulf Bank and Sharaf DG stations.

These new stations are estimated to serve an additional 20,000 passengers each day, bringing the total number of Dubai Metro passengers up to 150,000 per day, according to the Dubai Roads and Transport Authority (RTA).

The addition of the Jumeirah Lakes Towers and Business Bay stations are of particular significance to the Dubai property market as these two areas are hugely popular resdidential and commercial locations within Dubai. It has already been reported that Dubai properties located within close proximity to a metro station are already showing signs of holding their value better than other properties located further away from a station.

During peak operating hours an additional 22 new trains have been added to the red line to cope with the extra passengers who now have direct access to the metro.

The remaining three stations on the red line are Jebel Ali, Jebel Ali Industrial and Energy. These are located at the Jebel Ali end of the red line and are not scheduled to open this year as the surrounding areas have not been developed yet.

Dubai metro to open five more stations

Thursday, September 23rd, 2010

While the rest of the world struggles to emerge out of one of the worst economic recessions since the 1930’s, Dubai continues to push full-steam ahead with is central infrastructure projects with the announcement this week that 5 more stations on the Dubai Metro red line are on track to open this October.

The Dubai Metro recently turned one year old on 9th September 2010 and is one of the Dubai government’s flagship infrastructure projects, linking old Dubai and the airport with many of the popular tourist and residential areas of “new Dubai”.

The 5 new stations to open next month include Jumeirah Lake Towers, Nakheel, Sharaj DG, First Gulf Bank and Business Bay.  Once opened the red line will be almost complete, with just 3 stations left to be opened.

The Dubai Metro is the world’s longest driverless metro system and one of the most ambitious metro projects ever undertaken. It is central to the Dubai government’s vision of truly turning Dubai into the most modern and advanced cities of the 21st century.

The metro already serves as a vital and affordable mode of transport for hundreds of thousands of Dubai residents and these 5 extra stations will further increase the number of commuters using the metro, especially those who have recently moved into the popular Business Bay Executive Heights and surrounding buildings.

Dream villas, low prices at Falcon City

Friday, September 17th, 2010

Falcon City of Wonders, a new development off Emirates Road in Dubailand offers a very large villa community with a selection of homes.

For those living in Dubai, the location may strike as being a little isolated away from the built up areas or lacking in on site amenities. However, access to the Emirates Road means many amenities are within 10-15mins reach.  More importantly, when a community is built up to a high standard, people do move in and this results in little retail outlets and coffee shops springing up on site within months.

For now, the lack of amenities does not seem much of a deal when you consider you can get a new high-end 5 bed, 5,200sq ft + villa for AED 150,000-170,000 per year.  Given that some top-end 2 bedrooms in the Dubai Marina are leasing at over AED 150k, this surely has to be some of the best value the Dubai Real Estate has ever had.

Have a look at some pictures here and see decide for yourself if the a dream property is worth being 15 minutes out of the more developed areas.

Dubai property news – 600th villa in Victory Heights handed over

Wednesday, August 18th, 2010

The luxury Dubai Sports City development, Victory Heights, reached a new milestone this week as the developer handed over the keys to the 600th villa of the 794 phase one villas.

The Victory Heights phase one aims to be fully completed by the end of 2010. This is positive Dubai property news as there continues to be a relative shortage of luxury villa accommodation for the city’s executive expat population. While certain Dubai villas communities have seen price drops, especially in the Emaar built Springs community, the luxury Palm Jumeriah villas on the other hand have seen steady price increases during the past quarter as there continues to be a lack of large high-end executive family villas.

The properties in Victory Heights are built in three styles: Spanish Andalusian, bold Mediterranean and classic European and are surrounded by the Ernie Els designed 18-hole championship golf course The Els Club.
