Dubai Maritime City - Another World First in Dubai
Described as the world's first purpose
built maritime centre, Dubai Maritime City is a state
of the art development zone, designed to act as a regional
hub for the maritime business in Dubai. A
genuinely mixed use development, Dubai Maritime City will
also offer a range of luxury residential and commercial
opportunities ensuring that the area becomes a focal
point for the near 5,000 regional maritime companies working
in Dubai. As well as the residential, industrial and commercial
areas, the development will also include a large maritime
research academy, designed to offer the companies in the regional
access to the very latest developments and technology within
the marine industry.
The development itself will be strategically
located between the Dubai Dry Docks and the
Port Rashid development. Covering over two
square kilometres, Dubai Maritime City will offer its residents
spectacular views over the clear blue waters of the
Arabian Gulf. Connected to the mainland by a causeway,
it only seems fitting that the worlds leading marine development
will be built on land which has been reclaimed from the waters
of the Gulf. A genuine superstructure in engineering terms,
it is estimated that the Dubai Maritime City will consist
of over 30 million cubic metres of dredged sand and over 2.5
million cubic metres of rock on its completion.
As with many of the free zone development
areas in Dubai, Maritime City is designed to create
a regional hub of sector specific companies. Within the development,
there will be a focus on six major sectors within the maritime
industry: marine services, marine management, product marketing,
marine research and education, recreation and ship design
and manufacturing. The only facility of its kind in the world,
Dubai Maritime City seems set to become a global 'centre of
excellence' for the maritime industry.
As well as the focus on the marine industry,
there will be a wide range of residential property in Dubai
Maritime City. Already developers have started to announce
major projects such as the Iris Mist and
the recently launched Admiral Bay within
the Harbour Residences area of the development. True flagship
residential projects, the property in Maritime City is made
up of predominantly high-end luxury apartments which offer
stunning views over the Arabian Gulf.
With innovative and unique projects such as
the Dubai Maritime City Campus and the Maritime Centre already
launched, it is highly likely that more exciting projects
will be announced in the development over the coming months.
With demand for commercial and residential property
in Dubai reaching an all time high, it is likely
that the property in Dubai Maritime City will be in high demand.

please read the following article about negotiating Real Estate:
The Three Cardinal Rules of Negotiating Real Estate Transactions
You can find hundreds of books on the art
of real estate negotiation . . . but pardon my frankness,
many of these books offer stale strategies and tactics that
just do not work.
For example, in many books you can find the
ABC rule - "always be closing." That is, you want
to have a bunch of deals in the works and you want to get
to "yes" as quickly as possible in order to close
that deal.
However, getting to "yes" ASAP means
you leave out a bunch of steps in the middle, such as carefully
pre-qualifying your prospect by asking lots of questions.
(I call this process "Getting to 'no' first - meaning,
you weed out those who aren't serious about a deal).
It's also why I've simplified negotiation
down to three cardinal rules: the person who mentions price
first loses, get to know your opponent before meeting with
him or her, and always get your agreement in writing.
Negotiation Cardinal Rule #1: The
person who mentions price first loses
When I first started doing lease options,
I had a woman call me to see if I had a specific type of property
that she could then lease to own. She had $8K put aside but
unfortunately at the time, I didn't have anything in inventory
that met her requirements. A few weeks later I found a property
and called her about it and said that if she liked what she
saw after doing a drive by, we could do business that very
day.
She ended up loving the property. We did the
walk through and as she and I talked, I knew that $8K was
sure money in my pocket.
"Jim," she said. "I have a
problem. Remember how I said I had $8K? The problem is I don't
have $8K."
My heart fell clear to my stomach and my knees
went soft. "Uh oh," I thought.
She then went on to say, "I don't have
$8K, I have $10K. Is that ok?"
Now, I if had opened my big mouth and had
said at the beginning of our negotiation talk, "I'll
need a check for $8K," I would have never learned she
had an additional $2K in her pocket. The moral being - never
be the first person to talk about price.
Instead, ask lots of open-ended questions
that will give you solid information in order to determine
where people stand. For example, when I'm talking to a person
who is looking for a house or a lease option, I ask questions
such as, "It sounds like you're living in a great place.
Why do you want to move?" (What I'm really asking is,
"Are you a deadbeat?")
Or, if I'm sitting at someone's kitchen table
and he's spilling his guts to me about his house going into
foreclosure, I ask, "If you're able to sell the property,
what you would you be comfortable asking for it?" Having
the property owner tell me first what he wants for the property
is akin to him showing me his cards before he makes a bet.
In other words, it gives me the advantage.
Negotiation Cardinal Rule #2: Learn
about your opponent before meeting
One of the first things lawyers do when preparing
to negotiate is consult a lawyer's directory. They want to
know which school the opposing lawyer attended, what firm
they work for, if they've made partner, etc. And, if you're
the lawyer who works for a larger firm, you'll have the opposing
lawyer come to your office in order to intimidate him or her.
The same principal - know you opponent --
works in real estate negotiations. For example, if you're
working with a bank on a short sale, you'll want to get to
know the bank and its methods of operating and whether its
personnel are "user friendly" or they're a bunch
of pit bulls. One bank I work with is very confrontational
and negotiating with them is like pulling teeth. I learned
very quickly that I have to have all my facts, comparables,
etc. ready and at hand when dealing with them because if I
screw up, I do not get a second bite at the apple.
Knowing your opponent also means learning
what kind person he or she is. For example, analytical people
or number crunchers will want you to substantiate and document
everything. Touchy-feely people, on the other hand, will want
to talk things out.
To learn more about your opponent, talk to
people in your network, do some online research (i.e. do a
Google search), and attend your local REIA meetings - people
love to talk and by asking questions and being a good listener,
you're sure to pick up some good "off the record"
data.
Negotiation Cardinal Rule #3: Always
get everything in writing
Although we all want to believe other people
are good and honest, the sad truth is that disagreements can
and do occur in real estate negotiations, which is why you
need to put all agreements in writing. This is especially
important in Massachusetts, where verbal agreements are not
enforceable.
If you do get a verbal agreement, at the very
least follow it up with an email or letter outlining the conversation
and what was agreed to by each of you. If you're dealing with
a bank regarding a short sale, send a quick fax to whomever
you spoke with stating something like "These are the
parameters of the deal and this is what we agreed on"
and then list everything discussed in the conversation. Be
sure to sign and date it and call the person to ensure he
or she received your fax.
Developing your negotiation skills takes time
but is well worth the effort. In order to negotiate your way
to better profits, don't blurt out a price first, get to know
your opponent before you step into the negotiation arena,
and always get everything in writing!
