PFG ve General Atlantic, Türkiye'de yatırım için Zingat'ı seçti
New Post has been published on https://www.emlakreyonu.com.tr/haberler/pfg-ve-general-atlantic-turkiyede-yatirim-icin-zingati-secti/
PFG ve General Atlantic, Türkiye'de yatırım için Zingat'ı seçti
PFG ve General Atlantic, Zingat’a sermaye artışı şeklinde yaklaşık 65 milyon TL değerinde yatırım gerçekleştirdi
Orta Doğu ve Kuzey Afrika’daki yedi ülkede lider emlak platformlarına sahip Propertyfinder Group (PFG), yeni ortağı General Atlantic ile birlikte Türkiye’nin hızlı büyüyen gayrimenkul ve bilgi pazarlama platformu Zingat’a yeni bir yatırım yaptı.
Zingat’tan yapılan açıklamaya göre, PFG ve General Atlantic, Zingat’a sermaye artışı şeklinde yaklaşık 65 milyon TL değerinde yatırım gerçekleştirdi.
En son yatırım neticesinde Dubai merkezli Propertyfinder Group’un Zingat’taki hisse oranı yüzde 36,65 oldu. 
PFG’nin ortakları arasında yer alan General Atlantic şirketinden Tom Hussey, Zingat’ın Yönetim Kurulu’na Yönetim Kurulu Üyesi olarak katılacak. Dünyanın en büyük teknoloji yatırım fonları arasında yer alan General Atlantic, Türkiye’de daha çok Yemeksepeti’ne yaptığı yatırımla tanınıyor.
“PFG’nin yeni yatırımı Türkiye’nin çekici bir pazar olduğunun göstergesi”
Açıklamada görüşlerine yer verilen Zingat.com Kurucu Ortağı ve Üst Yöneticisi (CEO) Ahmet Kayhan, Propertyfinder Group’un Zingat’taki hisselerini artırması ile ilgili şunları kaydetti:
“Propertyfinder’ın bu yeni yatırımı ve ortakları General Atlantic’in Yönetim Kurulumuza katkı sağlamasına vesile olması, Türkiye’nin hâlâ çok çekici bir pazar olduğunun ve Türkiye gayrimenkul pazarını bir dünya oyuncusu yapma hedefimizde doğru adımlarla ilerlediğimizin birer göstergesidir.
Yatırımla sağlanan kaynak sayesinde önümüzdeki dönem, Zingat ziyaretçilerinin doğru gayrimenkule ulaşması ve gayrimenkul profesyonellerinin daha verimli çalışabilmelerine yardımcı olmak amacıyla ürün ve hizmetlerimizi genişletmek ve geliştirmek için daha güçlü ve hızlı adımlarla ilerleyeceğiz.”
PFG’nin Kurucusu ve CEO’su Michael Lahyani, “Zingat ile ortaklığımız başarısını ziyadesiyle kanıtlarken, bizim Türkiye gayrimenkul piyasasına ve ekonomisine güvenimizi pekiştirdi. Yatırımımızı artırma kararı almamızda, Zingat’ın Türkiye’de sergilediği başarılı performans etkili oldu.
Zingat’taki yatırımımızı büyütme yönündeki adımımız aynı zamanda PFG olarak MENAT(Orta Dogu ve Türkiye) bölgesindeki pazar payımızı artırma vizyonumuzla da uyum içinde.” ifadelerini kullandı.
Doğuş Grubu Yönetim Kurulu Başkan Danışmanı ve Zingat Yönetim Kurulu Başkanı İzi Adato ise “Başarılı bir büyüme gösteren Zingat’ın büyümesini hızlandırmak için PFG’nin ek sermaye ile hisse payını artırması; gerek yabancı yatırımcının Türkiye pazarı ve ekonomisine gerekse de Doğuş Grubu’na olan güvenin bir sonucudur. Ortakları arasında General Atlantic gibi bir dünya devini de bulunduran PFG ile beraber Zingat’ı pazar lideri yapacağımıza olan inancımız tamdır.” bilgisini verdi.

Opportunity Knocks for Investors: UAE Rental Yields Hold Strong
New property has been published on https://zooma.ae/opportunity-knocks-for-investors-uae-rental-yields-hold-strong/
Opportunity Knocks for Investors: UAE Rental Yields Hold Strong
For investors buying purely for earning income, who are less concerned about growth, the rental yield is the most important factor to consider. The good news is that the UAE has maintained relatively stable yields from June 2017 – June 2018, ranking among the world’s highest yields. In this article we show how Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Northern Emirates compare to other cities around the globe and how rental yields have been impacted throughout the Emirates over the past year.
Rental yields explained
Rental yields are the rental income (the money a tenant pays to the landlord) as a percentage of the property’s value. It is fairly simple to calculate:
Total annual rent divided by the property purchase price (or value) = gross rental yield
Total rent minus property expenses divided by the property purchase price (or value) = net rental yield
The result should be multiplied by 100 for the net rental yield percentage.
Rental yields are determined by a number of factors, according to Lukman Hajje, Chief Commercial Officer of Propertyfinder Group.
Typically, smaller properties produce better rental yields than larger ones. Apartments are better than villas, and studios are better than larger apartments, for example.”
“But also consider location. Newer, emerging communities offer better rental yields than more established communities. Newer cities offer higher rental yields than established cities.
UAE ranks among the world’s highest yields
Rental Yields – Dubai
Incoming supply in Dubai is coming more heavily from emerging communities in the Dubai Land area as well as brand new master communities around Dubai South and is made up of about 80 percent apartments compared to 20 percent villas and townhouses.
Areas such as Sports City, Dubai Investment Park, Dubai Silicon Oasis and Jumeirah Village Triangle saw some minor declines due to a larger amount of supply coming in. However, areas with strong demand like Business Bay, Dubai Marina, Downtown Dubai, and Palm Jumeirah are consistently in demand and have therefore maintained stable rental yields. Other areas that are more affordable or are in high demand are Jumeirah Village Circle, International City, Sports City, and Motor City.
See what other communities have held both rental yield and prices over time.
Rental yields – Abu Dhabi & Northern Emirates
Similarly to Dubai, minor declines in Abu Dhabi rental yields can be attributed to increased supply. Nonetheless, rental yields have also remained relatively stable in the capital.
Supply is not introduced in the Northern Emirates at anything near the rate of Dubai or Abu Dhabi of course, so yields there fluctuate based on rental demand. Demand in RAK has been consistent as a result of the free zones that are being established. On the other hand, Al Naemiyah in Ajman saw a two percent increase in rental yields from 2017 to 2018. This can be attributed to an increase in rental demand there as Sharjah becomes crowded. There are also a number of new projects coming to Ajman, increasing its attractiveness.
If you are ready to buy an investment property, now is the time. High rental yields, dropping property prices, longer residency visas, and the option to stay in the UAE post-retirement are all working in your favour. Not only is the government working to incentivize investments, but the UAE ranks among the top rental yields in the world.

Invest in off Plan Properties
Lease-to-personal schemes are emerging as a viable different for aspiring property house owners who won't in any other case have the down payment wanted to buy a home in Dubai. The lease paid on a home underneath such a scheme shall be transformed as fairness in the direction of shopping for the home.
It's a win-win for both events concerned since developers get to sell their present prepared-to-transfer-in stock while finish-customers can afford to purchase where they couldn't before resulting from lack of down payment funds.
"As we speak, around 70 per cent of expats rent, many as a consequence of lack of a down cost to buy a property or uncertainty on how lengthy they plan on staying in Dubai. To purchase a mortgaged property that's lower than Dh5 million, as an illustration, one would want to have 25 per cent of the property worth plus approximately eight per cent in charges," says Lynnette Abad, director of data and research at Propertyfinder Group.
Nonetheless, the scheme has not gone mainstream as yet in Dubai real estate.
"A developer's monetary circumstance and danger urge for food will play a key part of their determination on whether or not they provide a lease-to-own scheme. A lease-to-personal scheme may be profitable as it probably brings a pool of more patrons as it's also possible to market to tenants who hope to purchase in the future. In addition, you can charge the next worth as you're offering renters a possibility that they'd not normally have and subsequently they would be prepared to pay for it. Nevertheless, some builders might not see it as lucrative due to it being 'gradual money' as you get partial funds as an alternative of a lump sum and there are larger risks of defaults because the renter won't pay through the period and therefore the developer must begin all over again and find a new purchaser," says Abdul Kadir Faizal, co-founder, Sensible Crowd, a digital crowdfunding platform for real estate.
youtube
Also, developers typically choose to sell off-plan property and prepared properties are inclined to make up less of a developer portfolio, although that's changing.
"It's much cleaner to just sell the unit quite than having ongoing involvement. If there are points with the property, for instance, while it is underneath rental, then they presumably nonetheless must resolve them. What if the buyer loses their job and might no longer afford to buy down the road, what happens then? Is there an easy method to dissolve the contract or would there be a doubtlessly prolonged D&B Properties Dubai authorized course of? What if the market drops in this time?," observes Lewis Allsopp, CEO, Allsopp & Allsopp.
The developer that launches a hire-to-own scheme has to get regulatory approval and will not receive the full fee from any sale of a property till after a determined period of time, explains Mario Volpi, gross sales and leasing manager, Engel & Volkers.
Rent-to-own offers are being seen in locations where there are many small developers resembling Al Furjan, Jumeirah Village Circle, Sports activities City and Dubai Investment Park as there is much more competitors in these locations and every developer has to tell apart itself from competitors. It's proof that builders are willing to get creative to occupy their units.
"Now, we've seen distinguished developers akin to Nakheel and Emaar using RTO-like schemes to potentially convey an even bigger pool of UAE residents into the property market," reckons Faizal.
Most often, the hire is a little bit greater than the identical property not on a rent-to-personal scheme. Nevertheless, the higher hire is justified as this quantity is put in direction of the down payment and buy of the property. Moreover, the developer is actually offering the tenant an extended payment plan and the next premium would justify this rather than promoting it directly to a cash/finance buyer.
"The lease would be increased for such a scheme since we now have to consider the danger that a vendor is uncovered to in case of a default from the tenant. On the identical time, the tenant will have the ability to avoid utilizing a bank within the transaction, which can save him the interest rate," Cornelia Pintilie, undertaking director for Business Bay and Downtown at Fam Properties, points out.
"The primary reason for this is to raise sufficient of the required deposit quantity to ensure that the client to then get finance. Additionally it is a cushion for the developer that if the client doesn't take up the choice to purchase, there is a small compensation for the developer," provides Volpi.
In lease-to-own schemes, the timeframe for renting a property before proudly owning it sometimes ranges from two to 10 years.
Those opting for RTO schemes must watch out for all the terms and situations within the contract. "Who is accountable for the property in the time it is leased? Are there any exit clauses if there's a job loss? Can the property be offered if needed while the hire-to-buy scheme is in place? What if one thing happens with the banks, which stops you from being able to get a mortgage?" cites Allsopp.
Buyers have to make sure that they maintain the selection of going forward or not on the finish of the rental term with no penalty in the event that they resolve not to purchase, warns Volpi.
"There are numerous factors patrons have to consider such as the title deed ownership in the course of the hire-to-own contract, mortgage balance from sellers' facet, service fees of the property and how variable these are," provides Cornelia.
