During the end of year 2010 and the whole of 2011, a positive change was observed in investors’ mindset, which is revealed later in this article. The Dubai real estate market trends are changing and sellers need to amend their selling techniques and propositions accordingly. The change in trend is due to the significant change in economical and political conditions of the whole world. The US, European nations, North Africa and many other countries are going through significant economic instability, which automatically brings political turmoil. This has made investors to turn towards the Dubai real estate market. However, this time investors have different mindset and in order to attract investors, sellers would need to understand the change and its effects.
Cash-ready serious investors
After the property slump in Dubai, foreign investors fled away seeking opportunities in other regions, especially in Europe. Now as the economic instability mounts across Europe, many investors are once again inclined towards the property market of Dubai. According to senior Dubai real estate agents, this year Dubai has witnessed bigger number of investors. Many of these buyers are individuals looking to relocate to a politically stable and peaceful region like Dubai and settle down with their families. The analysts believe these buyers are cash ready, serious and seek quick transactions of quality properties offered are reasonable prices.
When it comes to commercial and retail property management activities, the connections you make between the tenants and the landlord are critical to the property performance. At the centre of this relationship you will find the lease document with its covenants and conditions, all of which need to be enforced. This is where tenant management becomes critical to the success of the property investment over the longer term.
It should be said that tenant occupancy and the lease document are two critical factors to be monitored by the property manager on behalf of the landlord as part of tenant management. Every property manager should have the ability to read and interpret lease documentation together with legislation as it applies to the type of property under management.
Special regard should also be given to unique legislation that can impact the property. Retail Property leasing legislation is a case in point, given that it usually has impact on the leasing process and the relationship between the landlord and the tenant. If you lease retail property, ensure that you know how this legislation impacts your property and leasing activities.
The tenant management process involves a number of control systems and points of focus. They are common across the industry and will be including the following:
Buying a property for commercial use requires huge funding. Even if one has enough sources to finance the project, one would like to save the money for further investments in the property and instead take a loan. Commercial real estate loan is especially meant for issuing a loan for buying a property for its commercial use.
Which property is mostly preferred by the lenders? Usually a property having the capacity to generate substantial income or the property having prospects of earning good income is preferred over any other property for offering commercial real estate loan. So before applying make sure the property you intend to buy has potential for assuring profits. Such a property makes commercial real estate loan taking a lot easier.
Commercial real estate loan requires a collateral as huge finance is at stake for the lender. Usually the property to be bought is placed as collateral. The deal papers of the commercial papers are taken in possession by the lender only to be returned when the loan is completely paid off. This means the borrower should always be cautious in timely repayment of loan installments as otherwise lender will repossess the property for recovering the loaned amount.
Lenders provide commercial real estate loan anywhere in the range of £100000 to £300000. Greater amount also can be availed depending on the type of the property and repayment capacity of the borrower. Because the loan is fully secured by the commercial property, lenders offer lower interest rate which can be further reduced on comparing different lenders.
