Capital

Rome

Rome is the capital of Italy and the country's largest and most populous city, with over 2.7 million residents in a municipality of some 1,285.3 km2 (496.3 sq mi), while the population of the urban area is estimated by Eurostat to be 3.46 million. The metropolitan area of Rome is estimated by OECD to have a population of 3.7 million. It is located in the central-western portion of the Italian Peninsula, on the Tiber river. Rome's history as a city spans over two and a half thousand years, as one of the founding cities of Western Civilisation. It was the centre of the Roman Empire, which dominated Europe, North Africa and the Middle East for four hundred years from the 1st Century BC till the 4th Century AD. Rome has a significant place in Christianity and is the present day home of the Roman Catholic Church and the site of the Vatican City, an independent city-state run by the Catholic Church. As one of the few major European cities that escaped World War II relatively unscathed, central Rome remains essentially Renaissance and Baroque in character. Rome is the third-most-visited tourist destination in the European Union, and its historic centre is listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. As a modern city it has been capital of the unified Italy since 1870, and grew mainly in two periods either side of World War II.

Junior Rockefeller - Rockefeller Center

2010-01-10T07:58:00.000-08:00

Originally conceived as Metropolitan Square, a complex anchored by the Metropolitan Opera, Rockefeller Center was at the time the greatest real estate development and construction project in the city, and was tremendously important to the commercial contractors and construction companies in the city - due to the Depression it was one of the only major projects underway, and was responsible for employing more construction workers than any other project of its era. Its significance in the history of American real estate development is due to being one of the first "destination" developments - instead of simply drawing from nearby attractions or facilities, Rockefeller Center was intended to be the destination, setting the stage for a number of other "destination" projects that would follow in the latter part of the 1900s. Today's planned multi-purpose developments that include office space, retail and shopping areas, housing, and parks and recreation are direct descendants of Rockefeller Center.
The Metropolitan Opera was intended to be the anchor in the development, drawing visitors and prestige to the complex. After negotiations fell through and fund-raising dried up, the Metropolitan Opera backed out of its commitment, leaving Junior Rockefeller to develop the project on his own. Rockefeller had signed a commitment conveying him rights to develop the property at a cost of $3.3 million per year for twenty-four years. The stake of his personal investment alone caused him to move ahead with the project. He later stated that it had never been his goal to become a real estate developer, but he embraced the role whole-heartedly, with spectacular results.
His managing agent, John Todd, was delighted the project went ahead: his contract giving him a share in the rents encouraged him to construct the square to become the world's finest shopping and office district. Unlike many designs for buildings in that era, Todd ensured that architects maximized usable space in each building, thus maximizing rent income and user convenience and affordability. The construction plans called for a central tower surrounded by a plaza and lower towers and corner office buildings. RCA, recently spun off from General Electric, was slated to be the major tenant of the central building.
Rockefeller eventually spent and committed almost $100 million on the project. He received a construction loan from the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, who had become a regular financer of construction projects for real estate developers throughout the city. In order to receive the loan, he was required to pledge personal assets as collateral. (At the time, few shared his vision of a "destination" development - many experts of the day felt the project would fail.) Because of its cost, practicality was the order of the day for the architects and contractors. Plans were constantly modified to take advantage of construction efficiencies and to maximize rentable space, keeping costs low both for the developer and for potential tenants.
The battle to acquire land for the whole complex also presented challenges for the developers. When property owners at the corners of 49th and 50th streets set their sale prices too high, the tower was simply designed and built around them. "Roxy" Rothafel, a burlesque theater and show designer, built the Radio City Music Hall to take advantage of the proximity to the Center. As the development took shape, many other local businessmen scrambled to position themselves to take advantage of the magnet the Center would become.
Seventy-five thousand union construction workers made the site into a center of activity so attractive to passersby there was an official sidewalk-superintendents club, complete with membership cards. Six buildings and two theaters were almost complete when large companies started signing agreements to move their headquarters to the square, and more became interested when it became clear that Rockefeller Center would be the most important new mid-town business center.
When the seventy-story RCA Building was completed in 1933 (as the major tenant they had naming rights), Junior moved the family offices to the fifty-sixty floor of the skyscraper. (The RCA Building is now commonly known as 30 Rockefeller Center, or "30 Rock" for short.) Nelson, still in his twenties, earned a real-estate license and soon became a salesman for empty office space at Rockefeller Center. Several companies in the Rockefeller organization, like Standard Oil of New Jersey, Socony-Vacuum, Standard Oil of California, and Chase National Bank, took space. In 1938, the first year it turned a profit, Nelson was named president of Rockefeller Center. By the time Junior hammered in the last of over ten million rivets in 1939, he had transformed the project from the butt of malicious jokes into what would become an outstanding triumph of Depression-era real estate development and construction.
In 1948, Rockefeller Center was bought by Junior's five sons for $442,000 each, plus their agreement to take on a debt of $10.6 million each, payable to Junior's estate only at the time of any future sale to non-family members. The influx of new capital allowed Rockefeller Center to expand, paving the way for construction of towers for Esso (now Exxon) and other former tenants who now wanted buildings of their own. As the postwar boom hit full stride, the value of Rockefeller Center increased astronomically, becoming the single most-important source of income for the Rockefeller family. In fact, their fortune was no longer derived from oil - it came mostly from Manhattan real estate. Very few families (or companies) successfully shift their core business from one industry to another, especially a company as large as Standard Oil, then the largest oil company in the world. Real estate development, and the vision to pursue worthwhile projects in the face of public skepticism, allowed the Rockefellers to affect an amazing transformation in their business. Rockefeller Center stands as a monument both to John D. Rockefeller, Sr. and to the family's willingness to pursue a real estate development project many thought would fail.
Oddly enough, John D. Rockefeller, Sr., patriarch of the family and the business operations, remained curiously indifferent to the complex that has perpetuated his name. Even though Rockefeller Center's nineteen buildings now cover 11 acres in mid-town Manhattan, he reportedly never set foot in any of the Rockefeller Center buildings, even though the complex was named in his honor.

LATEST:- Buying your Dream Home: How to Know What it Looks Like

2009-07-20T15:02:00.000-07:00

If you've ever looked at home buying or building articles, books, or magazines you've probably noticed oodles of references to dream homes. The funny thing about these articles is that one person's dream home is by no means necessarily the same for someone else. For some home buyers or builders a dream home might be a huge multimillion dollar affair with marble tiled floors and white shag carpeting throughout; for others, a modest floor plan with a spa bathroom and a professional style kitchen would be far more desirable. Different people have different dreams, and so their dream homes will vary accordingly.

To determine what your dream home looks like, take a moment to think about your daily life. What activities do you enjoy the most in your home and which do you enjoy the least. If you love cooking, a larger kitchen with an eating area in it might be just what you need; people who love to cook sometimes get stuck in the kitchen by themselves while they're entertaining because of small kitchen spaces. If you hate cooking, then a more efficient kitchen might be what you need so that your time spent in that room is more enjoyable and less of a hassle. Many people dislike cooking because they try to cook in poorly designed kitchens.

If you love spending time relaxing in your bathtub, you might want to have a large spa-type bathroom in your dream home. Spa styled bathrooms might include a large soaking tub or jacuzzi tub, a bidet, adjustable ambient lighting, heated towel bars or floors, and a sky light. Those who are more utilitarian in their bathroom use might prefer a multi-jet shower, rain showerhead, or massaging shower. I know a few very tall people whose dream bathrooms would include ceiling mounted showerheads to increase the ease of their morning routine and cut down on bumped heads while washing hair.

The other rooms in your dream home will likely be a reflection of your family; anyone with children will need extra bedrooms and play spaces. Anyone with a home based business may want space set aside for a home office. Take into account the needs of all the members of your home when you prioritise the element of your family's dream home. Another consideration to make is that of eco-friendliness. Is it important for your dream home to have solar panels for electricity or water heating, do you need room in the yard for a garden, do you want grey water reclamation, or maybe it's important that you have a passive-cooling designed home to cut down on your electricity bills in the summer.

Whatever elements are important to you, make sure you add those to your list. If you are planning on building your dream home it is easier to add in these elements than if you buy a pre-built home; many pre-built home may be able to have upgrades added in later however. Starting out your search with an understanding of what it is that you really want will help you be happy with your dream home.

LATEST:- The Purchase Offer - Three Important Clauses By Steve Gillman

2009-07-01T02:04:00.000-07:00

Many home buyers, and even some investors, seem to approach a real estate purchase offer as just an opening of negotiations. It can be this, of course, but it is also a legally binding contract the moment the seller signs it. You don't get to change the terms after that, or back out of the deal. That is, unless you have the right language in the offer to begin with.

Purchase Offer Clauses To Protect You

1. Inspections

This is perhaps one of the more important clauses in a purchase offer, and is common. But make sure you get the wording right. Ask for help if necessary, but the point is to make it possible to cancel the offer if any inspections show problems you don't want to deal with. Such a clause might read something like this; "This offer is contingent on the buyer's approval of the results of a termite inspection and general home inspection; said inspections to be done at buyer's expense within one week."

A seller or agent may want to limit your option to back out of the deal to findings of "structural damage," or something similar, but stick to the more general "approval of the results" kind of language. You don't want to be bound by the contract if an inspector finds some non-structural problem, like electrical problems or drainage issues in the yard. This clause lets you have inspections done. If anything too negative is found, you can refuse to "approve" of the results. This means you can get your deposit back, or you can renegotiate a lower price based on what you find.

2. Assignment

This is a clause for real estate investors. You may need to bring in a partner, for example, even if you didn't initially plan on it. A partner may want to be part of the contract, of course, and he can be if you have the right to assign the contract as a clause in your purchase offer. This usually means putting "and/or assigns" after your name on the offer, but ask the real estate agent or a lawyer what language is used locally.

With such a clause in the offer you can sell your "position" to another investor as well. This means that if you have trouble with financing or otherwise can't close the deal yourself, you can assign the contract to some other investor, who will hopefully pay you a nice fee (if you bought a good deal). Sellers will often accept this clause if you explain that it means you can bring in a partner or otherwise be sure that the sale will go through. In other words, sell it as something that assures the seller this sale will close.

3. Financing

What's one of the most common reasons that a real estate purchase doesn't close? Trouble with financing. You may have been prequalified, or even preapproved for a mortgage loan, but this doesn't mean the bank has agreed to a particular loan. Since you spoke to a lender, interest rates may have gone up, rules may have changed, or something negative may have been found on your credit report.

What happens then? Well, if you can't close the deal, you lose the deposit you handed over with the purchase offer. That is, unless you made the offer contingent on getting a loan. The usual language is something like this; "This offer is contingent on the buyer obtaining a firm commitment for suitable financing within ten days." If such general language isn't acceptable to the seller, specify what "suitable" means in terms of interest rate and loan fees or points, but make it something you can live with.

There are many other routine clauses that need to be in your offer. They specify things like when the sale will close and who pays for what. Ask the real estate agent or an attorney about those. But don't forget to also include one or more of the above three clauses as necessary, whether the seller or agent like them or not. A seller has the right to say no to your offer in any case. But you have the right to put any protective clauses you want in a purchase offer.

Is this Europe’s Finest Home?

2009-06-08T20:24:00.000-07:00

The number of global billionaires has been rising sharply over recent years and this is creating an unlikely problem for the real estate industry – houses simply aren’t good or expensive enough. If you’re a plutocrat with an eight-figure sum for a second home burning a hole in your Versace slacks the choice is limited. Mercifully Spain’s Bolt Property Group has broken ground on a 30 million euro solution.

La Roca del Rey (The King’s Rock) is an aptly named property of regal proportions. Occupying one of the most desirable positions within La Zagaleta, this all-suite ten bedroom villa will become iconic not only within Bolt Property Group’s award-winning portfolio, but also in Europe. And, despite (because of?) its prodigious price tag, La Roca del Rey is already garnering a lot of attention.

Proprietor of Bolt Property Group, Hadleigh Bolt, comments, “We’ve been developing in the five million euro plus price bracket in La Zagaleta for five years and although the estate is head-and-shoulders above any European competition in terms of services, facilities and security – some prospective purchasers have been remarking that the houses just aren’t ‘good enough’. If you have a budget upwards of 20 million euros, a 10 million euro mansion is sadly going to just feel average. Bolt Property Group has listened to these concerns and conceived La Roca del Rey. This will be the ultimate home in the ultimate location and I guarantee there will be no shortage of people wanting to buy.”

Part of a wider trend for building state-of-the-

art bespoke homes offering the latest in security, leisure facilities and intelligent domestic systems, La Roca del Rey has the added seduction of a trophy location. Set on an elevated 18,000m² plot (four and a half acres) complete with striking rocky outcrop, the home is visible from quite literally kilometres away. You could even keep an eye on it from your superyacht cruising on the Mediterranean some ten kilometres below – and then berth it in swanky Puerto Banús. It also follows therefore that La Roca del Rey’s future residents will be the master of all they survey from the Mayor of Moscow’s La Zagaleta residence just below to the estate’s immaculate golf courses, surrounding rugged Andalucian countryside, majestic Rock of Gibraltar and North Africa on the horizon.

Hadleigh continues, “This residence is for the truly discerning buyer after unique perfection. Doors of the finest Madagascar ebony, a lofty atrium with Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired stained glass and a pristine ten-car museum to admire those top marque toys are just some of the elements which indicate the level of luxury aimed for at La Roca del Rey. And all of this in the balmy southern Spanish climate. Nearby Málaga Airport is less than three hours flying time from Europe’s major cities, has direct flights to Moscow and America’s JFK not to mention a terminal dedicated to private aircraft. You can even land the helicopter on La Zagaleta’s oft-used pad. Everything from the location to the materials used points to La Roca del Rey ranking amongst Europe’s finest homes.”

Arranged over three floors with 4,400m² plus of living accommodation interspersed with bright patio-style courtyards, ten bedroom La Roca del Rey has many inspired features from a formal piano bar to a double-height wood-panelled library. The lower storey houses a generous 15m x 6m heated swimming pool with separate Jacuzzi and fully-equipped Spa with fitness facility whilst a home cinema sits alongside a wine cellar with a contemporary twist complete with its own champagne bar.

Outside Bolt Property Group has created extensive covered and open terraces, multi-levelled landscaped gardens and a substantial infinity-edged swimming pool with floating wooden sundecks. High-tech domotics and parking for 22 cars including that secure ten-car museum layout complete this landmark residence.

Price – 30 million euros.

Common Real Estate Trends

2009-05-22T23:49:00.000-07:00

Common Real Estate Trends By Connie English

Over the years there have been several trends in the real estate market.
These can be nationwide trends, or can be focused in one area of the country. And remember, real estate trends are always on the change.
Though when a trend seems to be sticking around for a long time,as a matter of fact trends are meant to change.

There are several things that can cause real estate trends. This can be anything from changes in the economy to rising interest rates and much more. There is no way of saying for certain if real estate trends will come and go. Rather,it is something that you must simply deal with as it comes up. These trends affect everybody involved in this industry. This includes general house owners, buyers and sellers, mortgage companies, real estate agents, and many more.
For this reason, real estate trends are always watched closely. This way, those who are involved know how to deal with these trends and can in turn handle them in the right manner. Following are the three common real estate trends to look for in the upcoming months.

1. Keep an eye on how the internet changes the real estate market in the months to come. The internet has changed several industries over the years, and this is certain to continue to take place with real estate.

2. Agents and brokers are looking for new ways to deal with upcoming generations. This is the trend that is going to change the industry in many ways than one.Simply put, the younger buyers of today are not like they were in the past.

3. Multiple Listing Services are taking a new form, and have seen several changes. Keep this trend in mind and this is something that is going to affect real estate agents in specific. These are just three real estate trends that may rear their head in the upcoming months. There are certain to be several more as well as some that are generalized in nature.

The bottom line is that trends will always be observable in the real estate industry. This is not going to change anytime soon.Hence no matter who you are, getting used to these is very significant.
