Coral Development Group Completes Phase 1 Construction of its Newest Beachfront Community, Las Terrazas, on the Belizean Island of Ambergris Caye

Ambergris Caye's Las Terrazas community welcomes potential buyers to luxury residential beachfront properties in Belize with a proven track record and a solid investment opportunity.

San Pedro, Belize (PRWEB) November 18, 2007 -- Las Terrazas (http://www.lasterrazasbelize.com), a premier Belize real estate development on the island of Ambergris Caye, is pleased to announce the completion of phase 1 construction. The 4.8-acre island community of 78 residential condominiums and villas is located on the beaches of Ambergris Caye in Belize - one of the country's most sought-after locations. The first phase of construction was completed in October of this year and inaugurated on November 3rd by the Prime Minister of Belize together with other dignitaries, property owners, friends and family.

Phase 1 construction consisted of the completion of an unique double level pier and slips for 20 medium sized boats, the reception-concierge palapa, an expansion and reclamation of the beach area creating an unparalleled swimming beach on Ambergris Caye, an infinity exercise lap pool, the two-story spa and exercise building with sundeck, and 38 spacious residences including the Sea House Villas, Garden Villas, Lagoon Villas (sold out), and the Veranda and Penthouse condominiums. Upon completion of the upcoming second phase, Las Terrazas will encompass a variety of fully-furnished villas and condominiums, two very stylish contemporary swimming pools, a state-of-the-art fitness center with spa, a tropical juice bar, a unique curved pier, and boutique and gourmet shops featuring the best of the culinary foods from cheeses to wines and personal accessories.

The buildings at Las Terrazas feature excellent workmanship, high-quality materials and finishes, and meticulously appointed interiors all constructed under the watchful eyes of Coral Development Group. The Coral Development Group blends expertise in real estate development with marketing, management, architecture, construction and hospitality, and has been involved in a variety of luxury real estate projects in North America and the Caribbean for over three decades. Dealing with a reputable developer with a proven track record like that of Coral Development Group provides prospective owners and investors the peace of mind needed during the process of completing an international real estate transaction.

"We take great care in the pre-planning of our developments to ensure that it fits within both the context of the local environment and community and if we cannot accomplish this synergy then the project is not worth developing", said Luis Latorre of the Coral Development Group.

"Recent in-house marketing research revealed that units comparable to the Las Terrazas' three bedroom beachfront villas would cost $1.5 million, $2+ million, and $2+ million in the Bahamas, Dominican Republic, and Cancun, respectively. With the growing international appeal of Belize we feel our prices in the $700k's show the most potential for appreciation", said Chris Roberts, General Manager of Las Terrazas. Chris Roberts added, "We also plan to continue offering phase 1 pricing during the initial phase 2 construction. Because 50% of all the units have already sold, don't expect these prices to stay at these levels for much longer".

Prospective owners and investors can download detailed floor plans of all Las Terrazas Belize villas and condominiums online. Visitors to the newly enhanced web site, www.lasterrazasbelize.com, can request additional information, browse through photos on the current progress of construction, and read about the many advantages of owning a residence within Las Terrazas' community.

All properties feature spacious floor plans, with large terraces on the villas facing the beach. Each unit will have deluxe contemporary-styled interior decorations, cable and high-speed Internet access within the common areas of the pool and beach, and a fantastic property value appreciation and rental revenue potential backed by the proven track record of the Coral Development Group. Acquiring real estate in Belize is a solid investment as the country lacks both capital and inheritance taxes in a climate where the currency exchange rates continue to be very stable. Property appreciation in Belize has been steady for the past two decades and is now predicted to accelerate in the coming years.

Each villa has been handsomely appointed with stainless steel appliances, marble floors, and granite countertops stocked with dishes, glasses, linens and towels, and fully furnished including flat screen televisions and everything necessary for new owners to enjoy immediate occupancy. Las Terrazas also offers a renters' pool, meaning that temporary vacancies in the villas and condominiums can be placed in the pool to provide their owners with rental income. For this reason alone, Las Terrazas represents an excellent investment opportunity.

The development itself has been carefully designed to maintain a perfect balance between the unspoiled environment and a comfortable living style, as suggested in the development's slogan, "The Natural Way of Life." The island community borders the Caribbean on one side and an inland lagoon on the other, allowing residents to relax and enjoy the area's beauty and serenity. Many of the residential units command a prime beachfront location, and the largest barrier reef in the Northern Hemisphere features some of the best scuba diving in the world - all just a short boat ride from Las Terrazas' white-sand beaches. This natural paradise is also only 4.5 miles from the town of San Pedro (Las Isla Bonita), offering easy access to the distinctive and colorful Ambergris Caye destination.

Property Frontiers: Oil Fuels Boom in Property Markets

Property Frontiers: Oil Fuels Boom in Property Markets

As the world's energy supplies come under increasing scrutiny, oil reserves as far a field as Mongolia are generating a wealth of excitement, and leading to a surge in local property markets. As such, capital appreciation and rental yields in localised oil districts are rocketing, creating excellent opportunities for property investors. To take advantage of this potential, Property Frontiers announce the launch of two new property developments in oil towns in Canada and Mongolia.

(PRWEB) November 9, 2007 -- Fort McMurray, a city in Canada's north eastern province Alberta is creating waves in the oil industry. Commonly dubbed Ft. McMoney thanks to its profit making credentials, US government has named the city as the preferred solution to replace the United States' dependency on Middle East oil. As the largest source of oil in the world, and with reserves bigger than Saudi Arabia's combined, Ft. McMurray is considered to be at the heart of Canada's oil production, and has the capacity to produce phenomenal amounts of the fuel. Indeed by 2015, the area is expected to produce over 3.0 million barrels of oil per day.

Today though, oil sand workers are battling a severe shortage of local accommodation and are currently being housed in camps on site. Demand for new residential accommodation is therefore enormous and with occupancy at 99.7%, rental yields of up to 24% are being achieved. Canadian property is therefore experiencing somewhat of a boom and Property Frontiers announce the launch of a development in a prime location to appease these high levels of demand. Riverside Executive Suites is based in downtown Fort McMurray just 30 minutes from the oil sands offering outstanding build quality and comfortable living for the workers of the oil sands. Capital appreciation is currently very high at around 20% pa meaning investors are faced with a wholly positive real estate outlook. Investing now will allow them to ride the wave of success that Ft. McMurray is enjoying and should guarantee very significant returns.

Property Frontiers have also launched a new project in Mongolia where similar opportunities exist. Ulaanbaatar is the operations centre of some of the world's largest mining companies with large coal reserves, several un-tapped oil fields and the largest and highest deposit (2.85%) copper and gold mine in the world. Significant growth has been seen in the country's entrepreneurial businesses and the Mongolian property market is in a strong position. For sale are apartments in the Temple, located in a key city centre location overlooking the central lake. With supply of local accommodation currently very limited, dramatic squeezes on demand have been experienced and rental yields of 13% net plus capital growth of around 30% is expected on apartments in the Temple. These phenomenal rates are likely to be further bolstered by increasing banking confidence which should sustain growth over the long term.

It seems then, that oil reserves may just be a pre-requisite for some of the most profitable real estate investment opportunities around at the moment.

For more information on properties available in the aforementioned destinations or for more information please contact Property Frontiers +44 (0) 1865 202 700.

Last Prime Residential Development Site in Newton-Scotts Area, Singapore for Sale by Tender

CB Richard Ellis is pleased to announce the launch of public tender for Dunearn Gardens. 96 units of the 114 units, representing 83.39% of the share values, have signed the Collective Sale Agreement (CSA).

Singapore (PRWEB) October 31, 2007 -- The premier freehold residential development site is located along Dunearn Road, close to Scotts Road. It sits on 8,866.8 square meters (approximately 95,443 square feet) of prime land and boasts panoramic views of Orchard Road and the Central Business District.

The guide price is $578.5 million, which equates to about $2,288 per square foot per plot ratio, inclusive of a Development Charge estimated to be $32.9 million.

Under the Master Plan 2003, the maximum permissible plot ratio is 2.8 with a height restriction of 117 meter AMSL (approximately 33 storeys). Developers can also further utilize the additional 10% Gross Floor Area allowable for the provision of balconies, subject to the payment of Development Charge.

Dunearn Gardens was completed in 1992. There are 12 two-bedroom (807 - 828 square feet) apartments, 64 three-bedroom (1,227 - 1,248 square feet) apartments, 34 four-bedroom (1,646 - 1,668 square feet) apartments and 4 penthouses (2,443 square feet and 3,293 square feet) presently on the site.

Based on the $578.5 million guide price, owners can receive approximately $3.42 - $9.29 million depending on their unit types and sizes. The developer can build about 134 units assuming an average size of 2,000 square feet each.

The estimated breakeven is in the region of $2,900 per square foot.

"The Newton area has always been well sought-after amongst homebuyers and investors due to its excellent location and good schools nearby. With Newton MRT station slated to be the "interchange hub" for the upcoming Downtown Line, we expect housing demand to grow more strongly.

Moreover, with Elmira Heights and Gilstead View being sold via en-bloc earlier this year, Dunearn Gardens remains the last and only available large residential site in the locality," said Jeremy Lake, Executive Director of Investment Properties.

The Tender Exercise closes at 3 p.m. on 28 November 2007.

Pullman Bangkok King Power Hotel Opens

Pullman Bangkok King Power, the city's hottest new property catering to a modern urban clientele, is poised to revolutionize Bangkok's accommodation sector with stunning architecture and interior design, new technologies and upscale meetings and business facilities.

Bangkok (PRWEB) October 20, 2007 -- Pullman Bangkok King Power, the city's hottest new property catering to a modern urban clientele, is poised to revolutionize Bangkok's accommodation sector with stunning architecture and interior design, new technologies and upscale meetings and business facilities.

The 386-room Pullman Bangkok King Power offers contemporary accommodation in four room categories with all rooms offering a unique set of benefits according to room type included in the rate. In-room facilities include interactive TVs offering satellite programmes and fast internet access and an e-check-in tool on the hotel's website.

According to Accor Asia Managing Director Michael Issenberg, Pullman Bangkok King Power brings a fresh perspective and attitude to accommodation in Bangkok.

"The hotel looks and feels unique. There is an excitement when you walk through the public areas, restaurants and rooms. It has a great design aesthetic that runs through the entire development. But Pullman Bangkok King Power is not only stunning in appearance, it is also very functional and user friendly which will make it popular with both MICE planners and corporate clients." Issenberg said.

"High end incentives, corporate meetings and conferences will be a growing segment for Pullman Bangkok King Power as it establishes itself very quickly both in domestic and overseas MICE markets," Issenberg said.

Pullman Bangkok's main Ballroom can accommodate over 1,000 persons supported by "state of the art" audio video technology. These "smart" venues were conceived and built to attract the MICE market and particularly up market MICE events. The hotel promises acknowledgement of corporate requests within 45 minutes and will provide a tailor-made package in less than 24 hours.

Mr Issenberg also noted that Pullman Bangkok King Power's other strength was its dedication to 'new generation' business facilities catering to an increasingly demanding and tech savvy market.

"Pullman Bangkok King Power has been developed to cater to a new generation of corporate clientele. The owner and the management team intend to "think ahead" of guest expectations and Pullman Bangkok King Power has established pro-active procedures in terms of service and catering to road weary corporate travellers," Issenberg said.

Pullman Bangkok King Power offers an Executive Floor supported by the hotel's Executive Lounge where guests enjoy exclusive check-in and check-out priveleges. This valued added service extends to Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport, where they will be given exclusive access to the King Power Executive Lounge at Suvarnabhumi Airport.

Located in central Bangkok, Pullman Bangkok King Power blends the convenience of a city hotel with a modern design. The hotel is attached to the new King Power Complex on Rangnam Road, close to the Victory Monument, and within walking distance to an emerging shopping, dining and entertainment enclave that is attracting affluent young professionals and families. This prime city location offers access to two BTS Skytrain stations within walking distance and easy access to Bangkok Suvarnabhumi International Airport via two expressway entrances.

The hotel's restaurants and bars serve a range of genuine Thai, Asian, European and Californian cuisines. Extensive shopping options and dining outlets are also available at the adjacent King Power Duty Free complex.

Low-Entry Land Prices Grab Investors Attention at Yucatán Greens, Mexico

Low-Entry Land Prices Grab Investors Attention at Yucatán Greens, Mexico

The five star golf and beach resort at Yucatán Greens in Mexico is offering the kind of early-entry first phase release prices that all land investors seek in order to gain maximum returns on their investments.

(PRWEB) October 10, 2007 -- Superbly located on the Yucatán Peninsula, near Cancun, the Yucatan Greens project is underway to create a luxury self-contained resort, combining the latest of ecotourism standards with a full range of on-site facilities and a new 27-hole golf course. Land plots are currently available at well below market value prices.

Bernardo Retana, Director of Investment Product and Development at the International Property Investment Network (IPIN), states, "We strongly believe that buying land here offers great growth potential whatever your intended investment strategy. Whether you choose to sell on the land prior to construction, build a villa on it to sell upon completion, or simply let the property over a period of years, you will be gaining maximum profits from your investment."

The extremely low entry prices are the earliest opportunity to buy, prior to official international launch. In fact, compared with similar neighbouring developments, prices are clearly under market value: eg. on a similar nearby golf resort with 18 holes of golf, plots of 600m2 are for sale at 103,000 USD, while Yucatán Greens with 27 holes of golf is currently offering the same amount of land for a mere 60,000 USD. Meanwhile, overseas investors are all the more interested as this affords an opportunity to take full advantage of the weak dollar, allowing money to go a good deal further.

Bernardo Retana continues, "Buying at the earliest possible point of sale of course allows investors to profit not only from below market values and high growth, but also to choose from the very best first and second line plots available, right from the start; everyone knows the importance of location when buying and selling land and real estate and Yucatán Greens offers a prime opportunity to choose the best from the very beginning." Having undergone the IPIN strict due diligence procedures, this land already comes with full planning permission and has been passed as a secure early investment opportunity that enables the highest possible growth.

The resort is located within a well-established but growing tourist region of Mexico where visitors come to enjoy its laid back Caribbean lifestyle, along with a tropical climate, golden sandy Gulf of Mexico beaches and ancient Mayan influences. Land purchase on such a luxury beach and golf paradise in this particular region is of course widely considered to be a highly valuable investment. Currently the Yucatán Peninsula attracts a considerable influx of Canadian & US visitors -- all likely candidates to fuel today's wise investments at Yucatán Greens.

All discerning property investors realize the importance of taking advantage of the most lucrative real estate opportunities as soon as they arise, before they become common knowledge. The International Property Investment Network (IPIN), operated by Property Showrooms, helps all types of investors in their quest to access up-to-the minute information on the very latest investment opportunities in the worldwide property market today.

Galaxy Centre is situated in a prime location in Shenzhen, at the heart of the new administrative, commercial and financial hub of the city. The project is being developed by Galaxy Real Estate, a leading property developer in Shenzhen with over 20 years of experience. With a total gross floor area of over 120,000 square metres, the Galaxy Centre is anticipated to become a landmark mixed use complex within Shenzhen, integrating high quality office, retail and hotel uses within the development.

In addition to the outstanding design and specification, it is also intended that the Galaxy Centre will feature a first-class lifestyle environment. Galaxy Real Estate has entered into an agreement with Ritz-Carlton Hotels, a world renowned hotel management company,
to manage and operate the hotel within the development. The role of CB Richard Ellis will be to ensure that the property is also leased and operated in accordance with international best practice such that the highest possible standards are achieved from the perspective of office and retail occupiers as well as visitors to the complex.

The structure associated with the Galaxy Centre was topped out on 30th June 2007. The leasing of the project will commence in mid August 2007 and the project is expected to be fully operational by mid 2008.

Mr. Huang Chulong, Chairman of Galaxy Real Estate, said, "The prosperity of the real estate market bears testimony to the rapid economic development of Shenzhen. As the needs of our customers have evolved, we have focused upon the introduction of internationally advanced real estate marketing techniques and management practices. We will not only provide superior facilities to office occupiers and retailers, but will also ensure that they receive high quality levels of service. As such, we are very pleased to be partnering with CB Richard Ellis, the world's largest real estate services firm. By leveraging competitiveness and experience from both parties, we believe that we will be able to create a new landmark project within the commercial real estate sector in Shenzhen."

Mr. Chris Brooke, President & CEO, CB Richard Ellis in Greater China, said, "High quality asset management is key to ensuring that commercial investment properties both meet the needs of occupiers and appreciate in value over time. Given that the real estate sector in Shenzhen is rapidly maturing, we believe that the introduction of international best practice in relation to the development, leasing and management of properties will play a critical role in creating added value and enhancing the competitive edge of individual projects. The collaboration between Galaxy Real Estate and CB Richard Ellis offers significant mutual benefits and, in addition, further demonstrates our continued commitment to providing real estate services aligned with the business interests and strategies of our clients."

Martin Chiu, Managing Director, CB Richard Ellis in Shenzhen, said, "Shenzhen is at the frontier of economic development in China. Many well-known international and domestic organizations have established significant operations in the city, which has facilitated the growth of the local real estate market. In many ways, Shenzhen is taking a leading role in terms of setting standards relating to the development of the real estate market in China. We see our involvement in the Galaxy Centre as an opportunity to combine our local market knowledge with the resources of our global network to both meet the needs of our client and expand our business in Shenzhen."

Over the years, CB Richard Ellis has established itself as a leading real estate service provider in Greater China, currently having offices in Beijing, Shanghai (Puxi and Pudong), Guangzhou, Chengdu, Tianjin, Shenzhen, Hangzhou, Dalian, Hong Kong (Hong Kong Island and Kowloon) and Taipei, as well as approximately 10 project offices and experience in over 60 cities.

Manyoo, Manchester - An Excellent UK City Investment

From only 104,750 GBP, apartments and commercial units at Manyoo, in the heart of Manchester city's docklands area are attracting much attention from today's trendy professionals as the place to be. Manyoo combines cutting-edge urban designs with practical living to create an impressive Quayside development of four blocks to include residential and business units. The development offers smart studios, 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments with current prices ranging from 104,470 GBP to 252,000 GBP. Also available are 20,000 square feet of retail space and 30,000 square feet of office accommodation.

(PRWEB) August 5, 2007 -- Most of us are aware of the great success of projects such as London's Docklands. Their appeal lies in a central location, excellent infrastructure and top urban designs to create prestigious business and residential environments. Manyoo makes no exception to this rule, modelling itself along a similar concept and now attracting a trendy media set, including the likes of the BBC and other related media companies.

The International Property Investment Network (IPIN) has identified Manyoo as a strong investment due to:
* Excellent Payment Terms - Reservation is 1,000 GBP with 3.33% deposit in 28 days(minus reservation), 3.33% due in May 2008, and 3.33% in May 2009, with the final 90% payable upon completion in October 2010.
* Location - Within the Salford Quays, the development is ideally situated near Manchester city centre, 1 mile from the M602 motorway and only 10 miles from Manchester International Airport.
* Increased Economic Activity - Salford Quays has been earmarked for relocation by many top media companies. Its surrounding areas accommodate an estimated 44,000 workers in a large number of offices and major company headquarters, and apartments at Manyoo will attract a ready supply of stylish professionals looking to live and work in the area.
* Design - Manyoo is designed and developed by yoo, an international company famous for its transformation of urban spaces into creative, individual homes and workplaces. Design is innovative with highly contemporary interiors and finishes created by the yoo design team and the internationally renowned designer and lifestyle icon, Jade Jagger.

Salford Quays is a prime example of how regeneration projects can work. As a former inland port, the Quays is steeped in industrial heritage, blending tastefully with the new on-site shopping, culture, sports, hotels, restaurants and bars.

IPIN's Director of Investment Product and Development, Bernardo Retana, leaves us with some parting comments, "Many property investors are looking to invest in the UK´s reassuringly stable investment climate. Manchester is in fact the second major financial centre outside London and its cost of living is lower than the UK average. Manyoo, on Manchester's Quayside, is set for Dockland's success, so it's currently a highly exciting http://www.propertyshowrooms.com/IPIN/city-centre-investment.asp [UK property investment location".

Prime City Investment at Astrum Towers, Istanbul, Turkey

Prime City Investment at Astrum Towers, Istanbul, Turkey

From an amazing 29,092 GBP, city property in Turkey´s emerging Büyükçekmece of Istanbul is today offering excellent investment potential, according to The International Property Investment Network (IPIN). Tipped by top economists as a prime investment location, Istanbul offers various opportunities in Büyükçekmece, such as this carefully selected development at Astrum Towers. Its first phase comprises blocks of 1,285 one, two and three bedroom units, complete with swimming pools and other amenities, while two more phases are to follow.

(PRWEB) August 5, 2007 -- From an amazing 29,092 GBP, city property in Turkey´s emerging Büyükçekmece of Istanbul is today offering excellent investment potential, according to The International Property Investment Network (IPIN). Tipped by top economists as a prime investment location, Istanbul offers various opportunities in Büyükçekmece, such as this carefully selected development at Astrum Towers. Its first phase comprises blocks of 1,285 one, two and three bedroom units, complete with swimming pools and other amenities, while two more phases are to follow.

These off-plan apartments will provide comfortable, quality accommodation in an area now famed as a hotspot for the city's new industrial activities.

IPIN regards Astrum Towers is an ideal city investment because:
* Considering the high capital growth rates that Istanbul property is forecasted to achieve, the developers quote projected annual returns of 20%. With growth rates continuing to be driven by demand through increased jobs and disposable income, investors do expect to see significant growth in such a key location; strong GDP growth is also driving the demand for local housing.
* Located alongside the new industrial areas of Haramidere and Beylikdüzü, Astrum Towers sits conveniently close to the city centre, being easily accessible via the TEM motorway linking Istanbul to Ankara and the E-5 highway
* Due to its situation within an emerging business area of Istanbul, the development is set to attract a ready supply of professionals seeking rental accommodation, in turn fuelling a healthy buy-to-let investment market
* The blocks are a stone's throw from brand new commercial and recreation centres, providing convenient, modern amenities close at hand
* The major commercial harbor at Kumport is located close to Beylikdüzü, ideally serving industries in the area
* Daily flight connections link Istanbul and Heathrow via Turkish Airlines, with XL Airlines also running a weekly service to Gatwick
* The units are built to high standards by a large developer, carefully vetted by IPIN

Now that commercial giants such as Ikea and Harvey Nichols have opened up in Istanbul and the headquarters of many other multinational companies and foreign banks are now operating from Turkey, Istanbul is taking the commercial limelight - so much so that the retail space available is far below demand levels, thus creating a strong opportunity for all timely investors.

Due to their great investment potential both in terms of capital growth and rental yields, units at Astrum Towers are reserving very fast and IPIN advises swift action while phase one pricing levels and availability still last.

CLSA Capital Partners and CB Richard Ellis Join Hands to Create a New Commercial and Lifestyle Landmark in Greater Taipei

CLSA Capital Partners and CB Richard Ellis Join Hands to Create a New Commercial and Lifestyle Landmark in Greater Taipei

Worth NT$7 billion, Asia Plaza marks the largest foreign investment project in Taiwan's commercial property market.

Hong Kong (PRWEB) June 23, 2007 -- CLSA Capital Partners and CB Richard Ellis jointly announced the official unveiling of a premium commercial complex in the Neihu Technology Park Asia Plaza. Worth NT$7.06 billion, Asia Plaza is CLSA's first property investment in Taiwan. It is not only the largest property development project in the Neihu Technology Park, but also the biggest foreign investment in Taiwan's property market so far. Positioned as the headquarters for flagship enterprises, Asia Plaza was created specifically for technology companies. Its prime location, large floor plates, world-class construction and management, as well as its unique lifestyle features will certainly meet the needs of companies seeking sites for their global operational headquarters. Construction of Asia Plaza is scheduled to be completed in mid-2007, and it will become a new landmark in Neihu Technology Park and the business districts of Greater Taipei.

Located in the centre of Neihu Technology Park, on the intersection of Jiuzhong Road, Yangguang Street and Ruihu Street, Asia Plaza is a commercial complex that consists of three towers and a large open square occupying a total of 149,189 sq. ft. Situated on a stretch of prime real estate along the banks of the Keelung River, the development commands an excellent view of the river and Taipei, and has good transportation links with business districts in downtown Taipei and northern Taiwan.

Working with a team of renowned architects, design firms, and management companies from around the world, Asia Plaza has been designed to meet the needs of the most demanding tenants. Unlike the cold and sterile atmosphere of other office buildings, Asia Plaza has been created with a grand display of lifestyle features, including a 21,528 sq. ft. expansive courtyard with lush landscaping and a space of 71,042 sq. ft. for restaurants and al fresco cafes. Asia Plaza is an environment created for people to enjoy their work and leisure.

John Pattar, Managing Director of CLSA Capital Partners & Property Fund says, "We are optimistic about the outlook for the commercial property market in Taiwan, especially the Greater Taipei market is lack of large-floorplate, A-grade office space with professional property management capabilities and people-oriented features. This is why we have such a great confidence in Asia Plaza. CLSA Capital Partners has a wealth of experience in investing in the Asia-Pacific property market. In addition to investing in the project, we are committed to introducing a construction and property management model that meets international standards. This will not only provide a premium office environment for businesses, but also create new momentum for developing Taiwan's commercial property market."

Hong W. Van, Managing Director of CB Richard Ellis Taiwan, points out, "The keys to success in commercial office buildings' development are location, building quality, tenant mix, and property management. Based on our research, Taiwan's traditional model for property development and management is unable to satisfy consumers' need for A-Grade commercial leasing. As a result, world-class development, planning and management are the only way to create the greatest value, and Asia Plaza is a testament to this new model. CB Richard Ellis and CLSA have always had strong cooperative ties in Asia's commercial property market, and with the launch of Asia Plaza, we hope to extend the coverage of A-grade commercial property in the Greater Taipei area and create a new landmark for work and living."

Allure Las Vegas Leads Way for North Strip Development

With the flurry of recent announcements regarding property acquisitions and real estate transactions, the north end of the Strip has quickly become the focus of redevelopment activity. More than three years ago, developer Steven Fifield had the foresight to put down stakes on this prime real estate. As a result, residents of Allure Las Vegas, one of the very few true high-rise condominium projects, are expected to move in this fall thus pioneering a new era of North Strip living.

Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) June 13, 2007 -- With the flurry of recent announcements regarding property acquisitions and real estate transactions, the north end of the Strip has quickly become the focus of redevelopment activity. More than three years ago, developer Steven Fifield had the foresight to put down stakes on this prime real estate. As a result, residents of Allure Las Vegas, one of the very few true high-rise condominium projects, are expected to move in this fall thus pioneering a new era of North Strip living.

Anchoring the northwest corner of Sahara Ave and Las Vegas Blvd, construction on Allure Las Vegas continues to heat up as the 41 story high-rise tower of makes its final push towards completion through the next few months. Allure Las Vegas is quickly approaching one of its last major milestones with the near completion of the five story parking structure, making way for construction to begin on Allure's expansive pool, deck and cabanas.

"The North Strip has some of the most desirable land in the city and will soon be known for its high-end hotel-casinos and mixed use projects," said Alan Schachtman, Senior Vice President and Principal of the Fifield Companies. "For Fifield, developing Allure at this enviable location is strategic, and creates a fantastic opportunity for residents on a site that is increasing in value everyday."

Once completed, the sixth floor pool deck will feature a lushly landscaped pool surrounded by private cabanas. Available for purchase, each cabana comes equipped with air-conditioning, securable sliding-glass doors and are power and cable-TV ready. Also, high-speed wireless Internet is available on the pool deck and public spaces.

"The progress on the building is right on track," said Schachtman. "Now that the garage structure is in place, we are starting the finish work on the sixth floor pool and pool deck. It is exciting to stand on the pool deck and take in the views that our residents will enjoy when they are relaxing by the pool."

Maintaining an aggressive 25-month overall schedule, work on the building's facade is almost complete, with glass infill being done in strategic locations. Allure's place in the skyline is assured as the building is visible from many vantage points in and around Las Vegas. The signature crown will be lit sometime next month, which will make Allure all the more discernible on the Vegas skyline.

Allure Las Vegas features 428 units and 15 distinct open floor plans with studio, one, two and three bedroom residences which range in size from 671 to 4,400 square feet, in addition to tower suites and extraordinary two-story penthouses.

Allure's large outdoor pool deck with cabanas is overlooked by a well-appointed fitness center with locker rooms, and a media center, conference room, catering kitchen and business center equipped with high speed internet computers, wi-fi in all of the public spaces, resident storage, 24-hour security and valet parking. In addition, due to its close proximity to fiber optic lines, Allure will have a large bandwidth connection available to all units for video and data. A private wine cellar will offer climate controlled storage for residents. Allure Las Vegas is also the only high-rise residential development in Las Vegas offering feng shui design.

With remaining residences remarkably priced from the mid-$500,000s, Allure Las Vegas is more than 92% sold out of its luxury units. Each of its remaining residences offer premium views of Las Vegas and the surrounding mountains, superb amenities and exceptional finishes.

Brooklyn Condominium Sales are Going Strong

Sales of Newly constructed condominiums are up in the 2nd quarter announces leading Brooklyn Real Estate Company.

(PRWEB) June 6, 2007 -- "Sales are stronger than ever. Brooklyn Real Estate Condominium sales are going strong, many of the projects that we at Wilk Real Estate have begun are nearing completion," announces Albert Wilk owner of Wilk Real Estate LLC, one of the largest real estate offices serving the Brooklyn real estate market.

Wilk Real Estate is announcing that it will be moving its real estate office in Staten Island, New York, from its old location "Wilk Real Estate II" will now be located in a prime South Beach location, just minutes away from the Verrizano Bridge. This new office will be a great addition to the already established real estate company, with a bigger office the real estate will be able to have more agents, and that means more opportunities for not only producing more sales, but an opportunity to better serve the Staten Island real estate community.

After an unsuccessful beginning with a different Brooklyn Real Estate Broker, the builders turned to Wilk Real Estate, and Wilk Real Estate has turned the builders slow beginning into a great success, currently Wilk Real Estate has sold 98% of the condominium units located at 355 Kings Highway of the corner of West 4th, in Brooklyn, NY 11223 of the Twenty Four units only One is left in this Manhattan style condominium building. The building is a six story elevator building with garage parking, offering views of the Verrazano Bridge. The builder spared no expense in constructing these condominiums, from the nine foot ceilings, to the five foot high bay windows the builder went all out in order to immerse the purchasers with the best and most exquisite building material, including marble floors, onyx bathroom tiles, and stainless steal kitchen appliances. "It is a great feeling to be finishing up the sale of another building, every building completed from beginning to end stands as another notch on my belt, I take great pride in seeing these projects through to the very end," says Albert Wilk.

Sales of the 76 Luxury water front, and water view Condominium units located at 3112 Emmons Avenue, better known as "The Breakers" are well underway. "The Breakers" is a unique condominium project that is setting the standard in luxury living for one of Brooklyn New York's hottest neighborhoods, Sheapshead Bay. "Today we have over 30% of the units in contract, which amount to over $19,000,000 in contract sales price. Things are in full swing, and if someone wants one of the larger units they better act fast" Said Albert Wilk

Wilk Real Estate was proud to announce another success story, after the builder floundered with a competing Real Estate Broker, Wilk Real Estate stepped in and now have sold over 80% of the units in 2615 East 17th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11235. "An aggressive advertising campaign and great group of agents makes us an unbeatable team, once we begin a campaign we get the job done," Albert Wilk, President of Wilk Real Estate said.

"70% SOLD!" - announces Wilk Real Estate. This is a great condominium project located at 2547 East 12th Street in the Sheepshead Bay neighborhood of Brooklyn NY. With Two and Three bedroom units are still available. A key to this offices success with the sale of condominiums is that once an advertising campaign has begun Wilk Real Estate sticks to its plan, and does not lower the amount of advertising that is dedicated to a project even as there are just a few available condominiums left. Albert Wilk President of Wilk Real Estate commented that "Our dedication to getting the project sold, from the first to the very last unit is what keeps us ahead of all the other real estates in our market."

"We had a great showing this this month at a new project The Bay Front Estates at New Mill Basin," said a Representative of Wilk Real Estate. This is a Private Waterfront Community located in New Mill Basin one of Brooklyn's most desirable neighborhoods, consists of Twenty Four detached single family homes, and Ten ready to build waterfront lots. Each house has approximately 4500 square feet of livable floor space. All Properties come with a boat slip and private driveway for three cars. All homes are built to the highest standards featuring custom Italian kitchens with granite counter tops, jacuzzi bathtubs, and sauna's. All homes are built on huge lots ranging from 5000 - 12000 square feet. With each property priced at at least $1,350,000 Wilk Real Estate is planning to pull out all the stops to market the project and start producing sales.

This month Wilk Real Estate will be launching the sale of Verra View Estates Located at 1379-1381 West 6th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11238. This condominium development consisting of Fifteen Residential Condominium units, a Medical Condominium unit, and Eight parking spaces. "This building will be the talk of the neighborhood with the large condominium sizes and the great amenities this project will be a great place to live for the few lucky enough to purchase a unit," says Albert Wilk

Albert Wilk stated that Wilk Real Estate not only is a leader in the sales of Condominiums in Brooklyn, but also specializes in the sale of private homes and Co-ops "Please don't think that we only deal with Condominiums, our office has a large selection of homes and co-ops that can be seen on the company website."
