HOW RESILIENT WAS THE UK REAL ESTATE MARKET BEFORE COVID 19

As you all know the UK market is one of the strongest markets in the world, attracting thousands to invest in prime areas. In 2019 the national housing price growth come to a standstill due the lack of supply, this was a positive for landlords as the rental growth saw a slight increase during 2019 due to declining availability of homes to let. So, this just shows there was a Supply vs Demand issue that we were facing.

The private rents in London on average rose by 0.9% in nominal terms in the year to June 2019 (ONS). This is up from -0.2% in June 2018 and marks seven consecutive months of positive nominal rental growth.

DID THE PANDEMIC IMPACT THE REAL ESTATE MARKET

The whole world was on a standstill and the property prices fell sharply after the onset of COVID-19 when the ockdown measures restricted the completion of property transactions.However, they quickly recovered, reaching a new record peak by November 2020.

These increases were mainly driven by the policies introduced early on to support businesses, household incomes and the housing market. These boosts to demand interacted with the decades- long under supply of housing – exacerbated by even worse than usual construction levels in Q2 2020.

Movement restrictions introduced in the second quarter of the year followed by the gradual easing of restrictions and the subsequent introduction of a property transaction tax holiday in July 2020 (which was due to run until March 2021) have made 2020 an unusual year in the housing market.

HMRC estimates pointed towards a 14.9% yearon-year increase in UK residential property transactions over 2021-22 (1,374,050), with annual volumes reaching their highest level since 2007- 08 (1,473,950) and year-on-year growth in the post-financial crisis era surpassed only by that in 2013-14 (22.8%).

Despite transaction volumes contracting for three consecutive quarters through Q4 2021, from the record high of Q2 2021 and as a combination of temporary stimulus support being wound down and exponential growth in house prices pressured affordability for many, quarterly transaction volumes remained both above or in line with the long-term average, and above levels recorded during the lockdown nadir through near-term post-lockdown recovery period.

WHAT’S HAPPENING IN THE MARKET NOW

As a result of the fall and the subsequent recovery of London rents during the pandemic, annual increases in average asking rents were at a high of 15.8% in the second quarter of 2022, with Rightmove recording the highest annual growth ever in any region.

Demand for private rental homes remains above supply in London and there are signs that both supply and demand are continuing to increase slowly, despite reports of many landlords considering leaving the market.

According to the House Price Index from the ONS, London house prices rose by 7.9% over the year to April, up from 4.9% annual growth in March. The average house price was highest in
Kensington & Chelsea at £1.5 million, and lowest in Barking & Dagenham at £336,000.

5 Tips To Upgrade Your Coffee Table Decor in Dubai

Coffee tables serve as one more support in the main living space of a house: the living room. Because of their location right in the middle of the environment, center tables are always in the spotlight of the room. Making part of the decor, they can keep house trays, vases with flowers, candles, small sculptures and other decorative objects. Inspiration & Ideas prepared this article to inspire you with a selection of possibilities and tips for your coffee table decor in Dubai. Innovate and improve your living room design according to your style!

Easy Coffee Table Decor Ideas

Full of functionality, coffee tables are attractive and capable of giving a special touch to various types of decoration. Due to the diversity of models available, they can appeal to different tastes. Therefore, the coffee table can, in addition, delimit the environment and compose the decoration of your Dubai living room. And everything according to your personality.

5 Tips To Upgrade Your Coffee Table Decor in Dubai

One of the most important things to consider for your coffee table decor is the overall feel of your living room, including the colour palette and decor style of the rest of your living space. Do you love a cosy living room? Are you drawn to a modern look, with clean lines? Or do you prefer something in between? Knowing this will help you choose the type of decorative items to place on your living room table. Also, when choosing decorative objects for your coffee table, take into account how you plan to use the table. It might be used to display decorative items and books, to hold drinks and remote controls, as a footrest, as a dining table, as additional storage space, or as a place to entertain, play games, and do puzzles.

EDEN CENTER TABLE

1. Start With Books

Coffee table books are typically the first things interior designers reach for when styling a space. A stack of design books, topped with a crystal, a strand of beads, or a small box or bowl, is the perfect way to improve your coffee table decor – or any surface that needs a little something. Not only do coffee table books elevate your decor, but they also offer a great conversation piece and give your guests something to look at when they visit your Dubai home.

EDEN SERIES CENTE R TABLE

A pretty bowl or a basket filled with fresh fruit, or even whole walnuts, is a great way to add the beauty of natural elements to your coffee table decor. You can also play with different materials and natural elements, such as baskets, wood beads and chains, pottery, woven trays and bowls, shells, stones, marble obs, and so on.

METAMORPHOSIS CENTER TABLE

3. Layer In Some Decorative Pieces

Walk around your house and gather items such as sculptural objects, trays, lidded boxes, baskets, glass vases, accent pieces, mementoes from your travels, stoneware, pottery, bottles, and bowls. Grab anything that has visual interest and makes you happy. To help create your desired mood or feeling, remember to include things that are both beautiful and sentimental and reflect your personal style.

WAVE CENTER TABLE

4. Don’t Forget Flowers Or Plants

Adding a vase of fresh flowers or a live plant is always a great idea for your coffee table decor, especially if you have a glass coffee table or other surfaces that won’t be damaged by water. If you have a wooden table, a good way to incorporate floral arrangements and plants is by placing them in a large tray to protect the surface of your table. Faux plants and flowers are always a great option, too!

EMPIRE CENTER TABLE

5. Finish With A Candle

We do love the luxurious look of a shimmering white candle on a coffee table. Whether you love a scented candle or prefer an unscented version, the coffee table or center table is a great place to add the beautiful glow and ambience of candlelight. Another easy way to add the look of candles to your living space is by using a few chunky wood candle holders or candle sticks to elevate your coffee table decor. They add a beautiful touch, even without candles.

An exceptional 242-carat diamond offered on sale at ALROSA Jubilee Auction #100 in Dubai

February 26, 2021 – ALROSA, in honor of the 100th auction of large diamonds, is putting up for auction one of the largest gem-quality crystals mined by the group since 2000. The last time a lot of such significance was put up for open sale was five years ago.

The Jubilee Auction #100 will take place on March 22, 2021. The flagship of the range is a 242.31-carat gem-quality crystal with dimensions of 21.7×31.3×41.9 mm. Viewings to be held at the ALROSA sales office in Dubai from 14th to 21th March.

Evgeny Agureev, ALROSA Head of Sales: “Rough diamonds, which potentially allow for cutting a diamond larger than 100 carats, are extremely rare in nature. Even less often such gems are traded: according to the law, all rough diamonds larger than 50 carats mined in Russia undergo a state examination for redemption to the state fund. Even when it is possible to put them on sale on the market, we prefer to cut and polish the diamond in-house before. Thus, today we are especially pleased to present this exceptional lot as part of our 100th international auction”

Dubai viewings will also feature two outstanding diamonds 190.74 and 136.21 carats each and a range of notable diamonds over 10.8 carats.

Under the current legislation, ALROSA sells special-size (over 10.8 carats) rough diamonds at auctions only. The first auction of such kind was held by the United Selling Organization of ALROSA in Moscow in 2003.
