As a result, we advise all landlords who have yet to apply for their title deeds to proceed at the earliest,” it added.<br /> <br /> Annetta Shaw, Head of Residential Sales & Leasing, Head Office, Better Homes, confirmed to this website: “Yes, a title deed is required. It is mandatory.”<br /> <br /> However, a Dewa call centre executive said they were opening accounts if the prospective tenant could provide a sales and purchase agreement instead of a title deed.<br /> <br /> A title deed or affection plan is also necessary for any landlord to generate an Ejari, Rera-registered contract. Unless a registered contract is provided, the Department of Naturalisation and Residency Dubai will not accept renewal applications for residence visas.</div> </div> </div> </div>

Besides, these units were quite reasonably priced.”<br /> <br /> In May 2012, Nakheel had launched Palm Views, a collection of 192 “pied-à-terre” style contemporary units with retail, dining and fitness facilities.<br /> <br /> The 46.45 sqm studio apartment with a fully-equipped kitchen were priced for Dh1 million, The developer has commenced construction and expects to complete the project by Q1 2014.<br /> <br /> The new price is almost 7 per cent over May 2012 launch price.<br /> <br /> Club Vista Mare, which will be directly linked to the Dh2.5 billion Nakheel Mall and Hotel, will include eight cafes and restaurants, retail areas and gymnasium facilities.<br /> <br /> Lootah said they will soon commence taking reservation for leasing of retail space and restaurants. Membership for the beach club will also be available for residents on the Palm.<br /> <br /> Construction is scheduled to begin in mid-2013, with anticipated completion by early 2015.<br /> <br /> The complex covers almost 5,000 square metres at ground level, with an additional 2,740 sqm of residential space on the first floor. Each studio, priced at Dh1.15 million covers almost 50 square metres, has its own private terrace.<br /> <br /> Last week, Nakheel said it will commence construction on Dh2.5 billion Nakheel Mall on Palm Jumeirah this year and is expected to open it in 2016.<br /> <br /> The mall will have a gross floor area of 424,000 square metres, including five retail levels and three basement parking levels with 4,000 parking bays.</div> </div> </div>
