RISING ECONOMY & POPULATION
23 November 2009

As the heat begins to cool and we move towards the end of the year, there's been a striking rise in the activity in Dubai. With just over one-month to go until the Burj Dubai opens and with the remaining Metro Stations to complete in February, Dubai's commitment to its vision is pushing it through the recession.

One of the strongest indicators is the rise in the number of medical tests for residency visa. By October there were 450,000 processed, near the total amount of tests conducted for visas in 2008. With strong emigration to the Emirate this provides a positive foundation for the property industry and the absorption of the large amount of supply within the market.

Dubai's economy felt the effects of the recession but it did not suffer to the extent felt in the UK and the US. The Dubai economy managed positive growth of 1.3% in 2009 and is predicted to rise to 3% through 2010. The declining inflation from 12% to 3% has eased the economic pressure on households and helped spur the growth through the tough conditions of 2009.



BEIJING PROPERTY SHOW
16 November 2009

China’s economic growth has defied the recession, with Chinese investment pouring into developing nations, and widespread acquisitions of international business. We felt there might be opportunities for Middle East property in China.

We chose the luxurious and award winning China World Hotel in Beijing’s central business district to present our investment-led properties to the Chinese market.

Despite the snow and cold, the three-day event proved to be a great success for ACW Holdings, with a lot of interest generated within the local market and international visitors attending the show.

As one of the few exhibitors from the Middle East, ACW Holding’s General Manager, Mr. Ian Pask was interviewed for Chinese Television, taking Dubai’s and ACW Holdings’ exciting offer to the nation.



ACW APPOINTS PRDnationwide
15 November 2009

In preparation for the forth-coming Jointly Owned Property Law in Dubai, ACW Holdings has appointed PRDnationwide Strata Consulting Division to manage their portfolio of properties to ensure a smooth transition to the new regulatory structure for property owners.

The Dubai Jointly Owned Property Law, an addition to the legal framework for property ownership, will bring much needed positive changes to the property industry, clarifying the responsibilities of developers and the role of the Home Owners Association.

General Manager, Ian Pask said of the appointment: “We have a large number of overseas buyers, and we feel it is important to add greater security to their investment where possible. Choosing the right management companies for the different roles in our investment-orientated properties is critical, and we feel we made the right choice with PRDnationwide.”

PRDnationwide Chairman, Gary Bugden pointed out: “Sound structuring and professional management of Jointly Owned properties is one of the factors which differentiate high quality property investments from others. Our goal is to enhance property values through creating sustainable, harmonious and successful communities.”

PRDnationwide Strata Consulting division is the largest team of dedicated strata and community management design specialists in the Middle East, providing advice to developers on the titling, subdivision and management of new and existing real estate projects.
