At the end of January, clips from a film about the housing market in Russian-occupied Mariupol began circulating on TikTok and X (formerly Twitter). After the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the Russian army held Mariupol under siege for 85 days, all the while relentlessly pummeling the city with missile and air strikes. Mariupol was effectively reduced to rubble, and no one knows how many lives were lost — though some estimates place the number as high as 100,000. As soon as the Russian authorities had captured the city, they set about rebuilding it and erasing any trace of war crimes.

The film, titled “Shocking Prices for Apartments in Mariupol — Millions for Ruins” was released in November on the YouTube channel “Mirnyie” (the plural form of “peaceful” in Russian and the first part of “peaceful inhabitants,” a Russian term used to distinguish non-combatants from military personnel in conflict zones). The Mirnyie project is led by “war correspondent” Regina Orekhova, a journalist from the Russian state news agency RIA Novosti. In 2022, she received a special award from the Russian Union of Journalists for “courage in fulfilling journalistic duty.”

The Mirnyie project, as one might surmise from its name, explores the lives of ordinary people in the conflict zone. “These are the stories of people who found themselves caught in the crossfire — some left, while others stayed. [We share] their experiences, how they survive, and what they think about,” reads the description. Judging by the channel, Orekhova primarily works in Mariupol. Previous reports of hers cover topics such as Azovstal’s underground tunnels, the sea port, city maternity hospitals, and the drama theater, which was destroyed by a Russian airstrike while an estimated 1,000 civilians were sheltering there.

In the introduction to the half-hour film, Orekhova promises to answer the following questions: “How do you buy an apartment in Mariupol? Is it more profitable to invest in ‘ruins’ that you can resell once renovated? How do you rent commercial space for a business here and how much does it cost? What kinds of apartments are for sale and what determines the price?” Orekhova explains that in Mariupol, there are “damaged buildings” as well as “brand new and renovated ones.” “The real estate market is very unconventional. We’ve studied it in detail and we’ll tell you all about it,” she promises. 

Orekhova speaks with three local realtors who show her properties for sale in different parts of the city. As it turns out, these are mostly half-destroyed apartments, hastily abandoned by residents who left all their personal belongings behind as they fled. However, even such properties, according to the realtors, are in high demand. In some cases, actual ruins, where just parts of the walls survived the bombings, are for sale. However, Russian construction companies will restore these buildings later for free, which significantly increases prices. There’s also the rare property untouched by war, or newly renovated apartments in restored buildings. Prices for these range from four to six million rubles (about $50,000-$66,000). Apartments in historic Stalin-era buildings in the center of Mariupol with surviving inner courtyards (i.e., enclosed parking), renovated entrances, and sea views are considered premium housing.

The film doesn’t explain why or, more importantly, by whom all the housing in Mariupol was destroyed. Realtors talk evasively about “all those events” or “military actions.” Orekhova asks how many real estate agencies are currently operating in Mariupol. “Well, there aren’t many surviving citizens per square meter, you could say, but they exist, of course,” a realtor answers.

Showing a damaged three-room apartment in the center of Mariupol, real estate agent Natalia remarks that “one shouldn’t focus on the consequences of what happened to the apartment but on the apartment’s potential.” There’s no electricity, the ceiling is leaking, and personal belongings, including toys and a highchair, lie strewn about — but the windows have been replaced. Natalia points out the “magnificent view” from the balcony. “These buildings have survived more than one war and, as you can see, are still standing,” Natalia says encouragingly. According to her, it would be too painful for the previous owners to come back and see their home like this, which is why they’re looking to sell the apartment in its current condition.

The realtors say that apartments are mostly bought by newcomers “from big Russia” and bemoan that locals can’t afford newly constructed housing. According to them, Russian authorities introduced a special two percent mortgage rate for people from the self-proclaimed “Donetsk People’s Republic” and “Luhansk People’s Republic” who have Russian citizenship. But locals can’t get approved because most aren’t officially employed — there are no jobs with decent salaries in Mariupol.

Luisa, the head of a real estate management company, explains that it’s virtually impossible for Mariupol residents to get an apartment without Russia’s help. She says they “can’t afford to buy back their old homes in Mariupol or to purchase new ones.” When new construction is put up where their destroyed homes used to be, the mortgage payments are out of reach. Luisa recalls how an apartment building in the center, leveled in the bombings, was cleared away to make room for new construction. Residents were offered housing somewhere on the outskirts as compensation, but they weren’t able to buy apartments in the new building being built on their property, even though they’re legally registered at the address.

Tatiana, another realtor, thinks everything in Mariupol is “getting back on track.” She says people are returning, “even those who didn’t plan to.” “The demand [for apartments] is very high, much higher than the supply,” Tatiana explains. “If an apartment is in poor condition but at a good price, it goes quickly. The interested buyers are mainly newcomers. People from Siberia are also eyeing our seaside breeze.”

Tatiana tells Orekhova that everything is “looking up” for the city:

Mariupol has never experienced such rapid growth. The city is developing before our eyes. It’s happening in such a way that even we don’t know where things will improve tomorrow, where slums will turn into upscale neighborhoods. Because our sky is blue. When I say this, everyone smiles, actually. But before, our sky used to be gray or brown, never blue. And now life is getting better; every cloud has a silver lining. You just don’t want to remember the military operations; you go numb. But when you see what’s happening in Mariupol — everything will be fine, everything will work out.

San Francisco closed the lid Sunday on the saga of a $1.7 million public restroom. To commemorate the commode’s installation, residents celebrated at a “potty party” they called the Toilet Bowl.

Lookie-loos lined up in the Noe Valley Town Square to give the loo a whirl. A band played songs including “Sloop John B” by the Beach Boys. (“This is a song about a john!” the band leader explained.) Children sipped lemonade and ate chocolate cupcakes while they tossed bean bags into plastic training potties on the ground.

San Francisco may have been a laughingstock over the news that it planned to spend $1.7 million to construct a single public restroom with a sink and toilet, getting skewered by late-night comedians and inspiring the “it” costume at Halloween parties.

But on Sunday, the city got the last laugh.

“We wanted to, you know, really roll with it,” said Zach D’Angelo, dressed as a giant roll of toilet paper with a red plunger as his hat. D’Angelo, the host of Tuesday night trivia at a pub down the street, served as the Toilet Bowl’s emcee — or, as he put it, the Grand Poobah.

“I am flush with excitement!” he exclaimed before he started telling toilet jokes that he said he had gotten from his 7-year-old nephew.

The mood wasn’t quite so lighthearted in October 2022 when city officials announced a news conference in the Noe Valley Town Square to celebrate securing $1.7 million in state funds to build the 150-square-foot restroom — enough money to buy a whole single-family house in the city.

The square was built in 2016 with outdoor seating, a playground and plumbing for a public toilet, but no actual toilet, because money for the project had fallen short.

Just as puzzling as the price tag was the timeline. The city said it would take two to three years to install the restroom, even after it secured the state funds.

Neighbors and a local journalist (well, me) began to question the details of the project. City officials explained the toilet would have to be approved by numerous city commissions. It would also be subject to environmental review. All that, plus the high cost of construction in the city, made the project expensive and time-consuming.

Politicians began distancing themselves from the bathroom brouhaha. Gov. Gavin Newsom took back the state money.

Then, Chad Kaufman, president of the Public Restroom Company, offered to donate a modular toilet instead. He and Vaughan Buckley, the chief executive of Volumetric Building Companies, paid for architecture and engineering work to get the site ready. They also paid for a truck to carry the modular toilet to the square, a crane to lift it into place and union labor to install it.

The tab for the city dropped to $200,000, and Mayor London Breed announced legislation that she said would help bring down the cost of other public projects. It would let city departments team up to get group discounts on goods and services for small jobs. The state gave the $1.7 million back to San Francisco again, and the city says it will be used to build more toilets.

In the end, the new red restroom in the Noe Valley Town Square was worthy of celebration. On Sunday, a woman doled out toilet trivia. Local librarians handed out free copies of children’s books entitled “Everyone Poops” and “Time to Use the Potty.” There was a toilet-themed costume contest with whoopee cushions as prizes.

Three San Francisco politicians — Supervisor Rafael Mandelman, State Senator Scott Wiener and Assemblyman Matt Haney — addressed the crowd. Haney posed for a photo in front of the bathroom.

“It’s not gold-plated, but it’s worth its weight in gold,” he said with a laugh.

Debra Niemann, director of the Noe Valley Association, a neighborhood improvement group, said she didn’t think the toilet travails had done much to make city projects, including public restrooms, any cheaper to build.

“But at least we got one,” she said. “It’s beautiful. It’s clean. It’s simple. It’s everything you could want in a public toilet.”

October obliterated temperature records, virtually guaranteeing 2023 will be hottest year on record (AP) This October was the hottest on record globally, 1.7 degrees Celsius (3.1 degrees Fahrenheit) warmer than the pre-industrial average for the month—and the fifth straight month with such a mark in what will now almost certainly be the warmest year ever recorded. October was a whopping 0.4 degrees Celsius (0.7 degrees Fahrenheit) warmer than the previous record for the month in 2019, surprising even Samantha Burgess, deputy director of the Copernicus Climate Change Service, the European climate agency. “The amount that we’re smashing records by is shocking,” Burgess said. After the cumulative warming of these past several months, it’s virtually guaranteed that 2023 will be the hottest year on record, according to Copernicus.

U.S. service members’ data is easy and cheap to purchase online, study finds (NBC News) Duke University published a study on Monday about how easy and affordable it is to obtain personal information about active-duty U.S. service members—and the answer is “very.” Researchers bought nearly 50,000 service members’ records for a little over $10,000 throughout the course of the study. In fact, researchers say they purchased everything from names, phone numbers, and addresses to names of service members’ children, marital status, net worth, and credit ratings for as little as 12 cents per person. The study has shed light on a concern that not properly regulating data brokers has, essentially, led to a national security risk.

Panama’s deadly protests (Washington Post) On the surface, the protests that have shaken Panama the past two weeks are about a government contract that allows a Canadian company to expand its copper mining operations here. But what’s at stake, all sides say, is a much larger question: What kind of country is this Central American isthmus going to be—one that preserves its natural riches or develops them? And if the answer is development, another question: Should a country that owes its existence to U.S. exploitation—Theodore Roosevelt broke it off from Colombia in 1903 so the United States could finish and control the Panama Canal—continue in 2023 to surrender its natural advantages to foreign investors? Two more protesters were killed on Tuesday, police said, bringing the total during the demonstrations to at least four.

Portugal’s prime minister resigns as his government is involved in a corruption investigation (AP) Portuguese Prime Minister António Costa resigned Tuesday after his government was involved in a widespread corruption probe, sending a shock wave through the normally tranquil politics of the European Union member. The 62-year-old Costa, Portugal’s Socialist leader since 2015, asserted his innocence but said in a nationally televised address that “in these circumstances, obviously, I have presented my resignation to the president of the republic.” The announcement came hours after police arrested his chief of staff while raiding several public buildings and other properties as part of the probe.

In Switzerland, Most People Rent for Life (NYT) In any other country, Philip Skiba, a well-paid analyst working in the finance industry, might not hesitate to buy a home. But in the town where he lives, on the outskirts of Zurich, even the ugly houses, as he describes them, go for millions. Last year, a simple, beige stucco home in his neighborhood went up for sale. The price: 7.5 million Swiss francs, or about $8.3 million. Buying a single-family home anywhere near Zurich is not just a luxury. “It’s beyond luxury,” Mr. Skiba said. “Two kids, a house, a garden, two cars—I don’t know anybody who has that.” Switzerland’s nine million residents are some of the wealthiest people on the planet—and they are mostly renters. The average price for a studio apartment in Zurich is $1.1 million. On a square-foot basis, Zurich is about 80 percent more expensive than Paris. Switzerland offers the world a glimpse of a post-ownership society. Around 36 percent of the Swiss own their homes or apartments, the lowest rate in the West and well below the 70 percent average in the European Union, and the 67 percent in the United States. In the United States and many other countries, homeownership is generally considered a rite of passage. In Switzerland, where the terrain is 70 percent mountains and expensive real estate on limited buildable land has been the reality for generations, a lifetime of renting is not considered a personal failure or a shortcoming of the system.

What’s Up With Ukraine? (Politico/Guardian) While all eyes have been on Gaza, the war in Ukraine has heated up. Over the weekend, the two sides traded strikes, trying to eke out victories as winter threatens to slow down larger military operations. Mykola Oleshchuk, commander of the Ukrainian Air Forces, claimed that his country had destroyed a Russian Kalibr missile carrier docked at a port in Russian-held Crimea on Saturday. He hinted that Ukraine had used French SCALP cruise missiles in the attack. Russia confirmed in a statement that the carrier had been damaged, but it’s unclear if it was fully destroyed. In response, Russia attacked the Odesa region on Sunday, causing damage to an art museum and port infrastructure with a combination of suicide drones and missiles. On the diplomatic front, a Ukrainian deputy prime minister promised that the country would complete the reforms necessary for it to join the European Union within two years.

Jailed Iranian Nobel laureate begins hunger strike (BBC) Jailed Iranian human right activist Narges Mohammadi has begun a hunger strike, a month after she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, her family says. The 51-year-old is protesting against Iran’s denial of medical care to her and other inmates and its mandatory hijab law, according to a statement. She needs treatment for heart and lung conditions but a prosecutor is blocking her transfer to hospital, it says. Last week, her family said that was because she refused to cover her hair. The chairwoman of the Norwegian Nobel Committee—which awarded Ms Mohammadi the peace prize for “her fight against the oppression of women in Iran”—said it was deeply concerned. “The requirement that female inmates must wear a hijab in order to be hospitalised is inhumane and morally unacceptable.”

Under Scrutiny Over Gaza, Israel Points to Civilian Toll of U.S. Wars (NYT) Falluja. Mosul. Hiroshima. Facing global criticism over a bloody military campaign in Gaza that has killed thousands of civilians, Israeli officials have turned to history in their defense. And the names of several infamous sites of death and destruction have been on their lips. In public statements and private diplomatic conversations, the officials have cited past Western military actions in urban areas dating from World War II to the post-9/11 wars against terrorism. Their goal is to help justify a campaign against Hamas that is claiming thousands of Palestinian lives. In those earlier conflicts, innocent civilians paid the price for the defeat of enemies. In Hiroshima and Nagasaki, as many as 200,000 civilians perished after the United States dropped atomic bombs to force Japan’s surrender. In Iraq, hundreds of civilians were killed in Falluja as U.S. forces fought Iraqi insurgents, and thousands died in Mosul in Iraqi and American battles against the Islamic State. Israel insists that it is trying to limit civilian casualties in a war against a terrorist enemy, which began when Hamas killed 1,400 people on Oct. 7 in southern Israel, most of them civilians. Human rights advocates and many governments in Europe and the Middle East scoff at that. They accuse Israel of committing war crimes in the weeks of airstrikes that have leveled entire city blocks in Gaza, destroying schools, mosques and other seemingly nonmilitary targets.

Netanyahu faces rising anger from within Israel (CBS News) While Israel’s government continues to wage its war against Hamas, public support for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is in freefall. According to a recent poll by an Israeli news station, 76% of respondents say that Netanyahu should resign. The main cause of this backlash is his government’s failure to preemptively stop the October 7 attacks by Hamas. Officials from both the U.S. and Egypt claim that Egypt had warned Israel of the attacks before they happened, but the country ignored the warning. Israel has said that those claims are “absolutely false.” The opposition to Netanyahu is nothing new, though. Prior to the October 7 attacks, he was already facing massive political backlash for his attempts to erode the power of Israel’s Supreme Court.

Jordan’s Queen Rania says being pro-Palestinian does not equal being ‘antisemitic’ (CNN) Queen Rania Al Abdullah of Jordan has called for a ceasefire in Israel’s war against Hamas, saying that supporting the protection of Palestinian lives does not equal being antisemitic or pro-terrorism. “Let me be very, very clear. Being pro-Palestinian is not being antisemitic, being pro-Palestinian does not mean you’re pro-Hamas or pro-terrorism,” Rania told CNN’s Becky Anderson on Sunday. “What we’ve seen in recent years is the charge of antisemitism being weaponized in order to silence any criticism of Israel,” she said. “I want to absolutely and wholeheartedly condemn antisemitism and Islamophobia…but I also want to remind everyone that Israel does not represent all the Jewish people around the world. Israel is a state and it alone is responsible for its own crimes.”

Why There’s No End in Sight For the Israel-Hamas War (Slate) One month has passed since the Israel-Hamas war began, and no end seems to be in sight. There are three reasons why. First, both sides have maximalist goals: Hamas, to wipe the state of Israel off the map; Israel, to destroy Hamas as a political force that rules Gaza and as a military force that can threaten Israel ever again. Neither goal is achievable. Israel isn’t going anywhere, and even if the Israeli army kills every Hamas commander, others will rise to take their place. Second, neither side’s leaders are inclined to compromise. Israelis view Hamas as an existential threat. Its Oct. 7 attack killed 1,400 people—more Jews killed in one day than at any time since the Holocaust. Hamas’ commanders, having achieved what they see as a glorious success, which has roused global support for Palestinians on a scale never before seen, may see the conflict as the last chance to strike a big blow. Third, only outside pressure can moderate the two combatants’ goals, much less stop the fighting, but there are limits on what outsiders can—or want to—do. The United States, which is fast becoming Israel’s only powerful ally, has held back Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his unity wartime Cabinet to some degree, but just some. Meanwhile, the neighboring Arab nations make grand declarations of support for Palestinians, but they aren’t doing very much to help them, and never have. Egypt has blockaded Gaza’s southern border as fervently, and for as long, as Israel has blockaded from the north. Its leaders have no interest in hosting Gazan refugees from Israel’s bombing. Neither do the rulers of Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Jordan, or the others.

Chaos as Optus outage disconnects half of Australia (Reuters) For millions of Australians who could not pay for goods, book rides, get medical care or even make phone calls, a nine-hour near-total service blackout from the company which provides 40% of the country's internet became a lesson in the risks of a society that has moved almost entirely online. In the three years to 2022, Australian cash transactions halved to 16% as pandemic restrictions sped up a longer-term trend toward so-called contactless payments, according to the Reserve Bank of Australia. One-quarter of the country's doctor appointments are online or by phone, government data shows. Optus gave no explanation for the outage except to say it was investigating it. Most of its services were restored by the afternoon. Until then, even taking a walk became more difficult, at least for people who needed directions. "I'm looking for a bank, and when you can't go onto your phone and Google pretty much you are lost," said Angela Ican, a security officer in Sydney's central business district.

Paphos is the third-largest city in Cyprus with a population of just over 100,000 people. The island itself has a total estimated population of around 1.207 million people. How Big is Cyprus? Image by: Google Maps The island has a total land area of around 9,251 square kilometres (3,571 square miles). Cyprus is located in the eastern Mediterranean Sea and is bordered by Syria to the north, Lebanon to the west and southwest, Israel to the south and southeast, Egypt on its east side as well as a small portion of Turkey. Cyprus is a small country with a huge potential for growth. The economy of the country is mainly based on tourism, financial services and shipping. There are many different climate zones in Cyprus, with four seasons throughout the year: summer (May to October), autumn (October to December), winter (December to February) and spring (February to May). How Stable is The Real Estate in Cyprus? The real estate market in Cyprus is considered one of the most stable and secure in Europe, with a very low-interest rate. The Cypriot real estate market has grown tremendously over the last decade, mainly due to the growth of tourism in Cyprus. The government has made it very easy for foreigners to purchase real estate property in Cyprus by introducing new legislation, which allows non-residents to buy properties without having to go through the lengthy and costly process of getting a Cypriot residency. Why invest in Cyprus - Investment opportunities The number of foreign investors has grown considerably since Cyprus joined the European Union in 2004, with many Europeans choosing to buy property in Cyprus as an alternative to the UK, where house prices have risen sharply. In this article, we will look at the main reasons why you should consider investing in Cyprus property. We will help you understand the Cyprus real estate market and give you a better idea of what to expect if you decide to buy property in the country. Which are the 8 most important reasons for investing in real estate in Cyprus? - The Cyprus market is one of the most stable in Europe and has been so for a number of years. - Property prices have remained fairly steady over the past few years, with some areas experiencing a small increase in prices. - There is an excellent choice of properties to choose from, including apartments and villas with sea views. - The Cyprus property market has been unaffected by the recent economic crisis and is still considered a safe haven for foreign investors. - Property prices in Cyprus are considerably lower than in other European countries such as the UK or France. - There are many areas to choose from, including the coastal towns of Limassol and Larnaka as well as inland Nicosia. - There are a number of incentives for foreign buyers in Cyprus, such as tax breaks and the ability to purchase property from a foreign company. - In recent years, Cyprus has become known as a popular destination for ex-pats from all over the world. Now, with this exciting introduction, let's get to the meat of the article. Real Estate Best Definition Real estate is a term used to describe the physical property and land that is used to produce income. It can include anything from housing and apartments to commercial and industrial buildings. Real estate also includes the rights and obligations of the client, the agent's evaluation of the property, professional conduct, convenience, notary public service, and document templates that simplify procedures such as signing documents and real estate in general. How Important is Data for Real Estate? The real estate market is a data-driven industry, in order to make the best decisions, agents and brokers need access to accurate, up-to-date information on properties, prices and trends. The advent of the internet has only made this more true. Nowadays, almost all real estate transactions are handled electronically, and buyers and sellers can access a wealth of information online. Real Estate Data Analytics & Market analysis Transaction volume and value by district (2021) Image Source: Department of Lands and Surveys (DLS), PwC Analysis  Market analysis and data, especially for real estate, are usually not freely available in Cyprus. It can be hard to find reliable data and market analysis on the Cypriot property sector. A lot of this information is available in Greek and even then, it is often hard to find. Once this data is found, it is often unclear and hard to interpret. The data is usually in a PDF format or worse, an image file (such as JPG) that can't be searched. This data can be used to inform business decisions about where to invest money in new property developments, for example. By analyzing trends in sales prices, vacancy rates and other indicators, businesses can make more informed choices about where to put their money. Real estate has always been a data-driven industry, but in recent years the amount of data available has exploded. This new type of data, known as "Big Data", allows companies to make better decisions, such as which property to build and how to price it. In addition, this data helps agents serve their clients more efficiently and provide a more tailored experience for buyers and sellers of real estate. In today's market, homebuyers do research online before they even look at the real estate market. These searches lead to website searches that can be tracked and generate client data. Real estate agents looking to expand their client base can use this data to find potential client profiles and increase sales. You just need to know what methods to use and how to get the best numbers. Here are some ways you can make better use of real estate agent data when the opportunity arises: Investing in real estate data is big business Anyone who sells real estate knows that the right client and the right timing are critical to developing a business. To increase leads, look at the information that tells you which consumers are most likely to buy a home in the future. Networks like Zillow and Trulia collect data from online searches and offer real estate sellers digital advertising space and more detailed website features. Companies like SmartZip and Buyside analyse Big Data to help real estate agents target potential buyers. These companies use the seemingly unmanageable amount of consumer data to gain insights that can predict where homeowners will list their homes, who high-income renters are likely to buy a home from, or which households have access to credit. Experian is a company that offers information that can be used for potential lead generation, such as its income targeting reports. Real estate leads discovery through free data Not every real estate agent can afford to pay for leads that may or may not result in a sale. If you are looking for clients that fit your demographics and local market, free sources of information can help ensure you have enough resources. Data from property records, such as where someone has lived and for how long, US Census Bureau data and City-Data.com are also freely available and can help you stay up to date on the demographics of a neighbourhood, improving your chances of effectively targeting the market.  Search for your target audience Focusing on small niche areas of the real estate market can sometimes be the most effective way to get your message to the people who need it most. In your search for potential clients, keep the following in mind: In addition to searching for specific neighbourhoods and cities, there are several other ways to search for potential clients. For example, you can use a tool like Google's Keyword Planner to see what keywords are most commonly searched for in your area of interest. You can also search for the most common questions asked by people in your area of interest. Are there different types of real estate? Yes, there are many different types of real estate. Some of the most common ones include: - - Residential and commercial property - - Sale and lease - - Land, house, and building - - Local and international Each type of property has its own characteristics that can make it suitable for different people. For example, detached houses are usually larger and more expensive than flat buildings. On the other hand, flat buildings can be a good option for people who want to live in smaller spaces or invest in real estate. The fact is that there are many different types of real estate. And if you are planning to market your real estate business, get into the real estate business, or simply find the best value you can ask for your property, you should know how to choose the right type of real estate for your needs. Residential and commercial property Residential property is a property where people live, such as houses and flats. Commercial real estate is shops, restaurants and office buildings. In either case, a real estate agent will help you find, buy, rent or sell a property. There are no legal restrictions on foreigners buying property in Cyprus and you can buy a house just as easily as a local. Note, however, that the buyer must not have a criminal record and must meet the requirements. In Cyprus, the property market is booming as prices have risen considerably in recent years. This is due to the increasing demand for property by foreign buyers, especially from Greece and Russia. In recent years, the number of people moving to Cyprus has increased significantly due to the financial crisis in their home countries. Sale and lease Leasing is like renting a property where the owner transfers the use of the property to the tenant in exchange for money. on the other hand, the sale of a property is the transfer of ownership from one entity to another in exchange for money. The difference between leasing and selling should not be confusing, since there are many similarities between the two. The main difference is that leasing will not be responsible for any repair or maintenance of the property while selling a property means that you have to pay all expenses. The tenant (leaseholder) owns and uses the property during the term of the lease, but does not own the property. The seller loses possession and the right to use the property when the sale process is completed. The tenant (leaseholder), on the other hand, cannot transfer his rights to another person unless he obtains permission from the landlord (lessor). Commercial leases are also common and give the tenant the right to use the space for business purposes. Leasing and selling are two different ways to make money from property. Land, house, and building The land is the most basic type of real estate and refers to the natural features of a geographic area, such as mountains, rivers, and forests. House is a man-made structure that is used as a place to live or work. A building is a man-made structure that is used for other purposes, such as a store or factory. Local and international International real estate is a global industry, which has seen a lot of changes in recent years. Real estate is a very lucrative business and has been attracting investors from all over the world, who are looking to invest their money in safe investments. Cyprus's real estate market is a great example of how this industry has evolved in recent years. The real estate market of Cyprus is a very attractive investment opportunity for many investors, who are looking to invest their money safely and with great returns on the investment. With local real estate, you'll be more familiar with the area and what it has to offer in terms of amenities and attractions. You'll also have an easier time getting around, as you'll already know your way around. However, international real estate can come with some tax benefits, as well as opportunities for investment. Additionally, if you're looking for a change of scenery, an international property might be just what you're after. What is C2C in real estate? C2C in real estate stands for "customer to customer." It is a term that is used to describe the process of a customer buying or selling a property to another customer without the use of a middleman or broker. C2C also describes certain marketing trends in the real estate industry. In this type of transaction, buyers and sellers are connected through a digital platform, such as the internet or a mobile app. This allows for a more direct connection between the buyer and seller, and it often results in a faster sale. The C2C (Contract to close) Do NOW model This is a model that can be used in the closing process. It's important to note that this model is not for every situation and it will work best with specific types of transactions, such as home sales. The C2C (Contract to close) model is becoming more and more popular in the real estate world, as it helps buyers and sellers to get the property they want more quickly and efficiently. The goal of the C2C (Contract to close) model is to move quickly and smoothly through the buying process, minimizing potential risks and maximizing chances for a successful closing. The key to success with this model is communication and transparency between all parties involved. By following the proper steps and guidelines, you can successfully complete your own contract-to-close transaction using the C2C (Contract to close) model. Why real estate startups are moving from B2C to C2C Real estate startups are moving away from B2C to C2C because of new trends in the industry. These new trends include, but are not limited to, the following: - - A growing interest in the sharing economy and collaborative consumption - - The decreasing popularity of traditional brokerages - - The increasing demand for data and analytics - - The increasing availability of technology to create new marketplaces - - The growing interest in the real estate industry from investors and startups - - The increasing interest from investors in real estate startups Why C2C in real estate is important? The C2C (consumer to consumer) market is growing in popularity as it becomes more well-known. This market is cost-effective for both the buyer and the seller, and the number of products for sale by consumers is steadily rising. C2C is an appealing business model for retailers due to the popularity of social media and other online channels that allow buyers and sellers to connect more easily. Real Estate in Cyprus In Real Estate marketing, it is important to understand the Cyprus real estate market. The island of Cyprus is divided into two parts, the Greek Cypriot side and the Turkish Cypriot side. This division has led to a lot of political and economic issues that have affected the real estate market in Cyprus. The Greek Cypriot side is an EU member state while the Turkish Cypriot side is not. Now the strongest marketing is mainly focused on the EU Cypriot market side. This is due to the fact that most of the buyers are from Europe and they prefer to buy a property in an EU member state. The Turkish Cypriot side has been left out in the marketing. The Greek Cypriot side is the most populated area in Cyprus and it has a strong economy. Real Estate is Booming in Cyprus! The real estate market in Cyprus is growing rapidly, with more and more people investing in property. The real estate and construction sector are one of the key pillars of the economy, contributing 17% to the country's GVA. However, the pandemic disrupted growth in 2020, with a 19% decrease in the number of properties transacted and a 32% decrease in transaction value. Despite the disruptions caused by the pandemic and later in the year the Cyprus Investment Programme (CIP) terminated, the Real Estate and Construction sector's GVA output dropped marginally (1%) during 2020. This highlights the resilience of the sector and its importance to the overall economy. The growth in real estate transaction activity observed over the past years was disrupted in 2020. The total volume and value of properties transacted in Cyprus through the DLS recorded a significant drop during 2020 compared to 2019. Why Real Estate is Booming in Cyprus? This was mainly attributed to the following: 1. From January to May 2019, the market experienced an influx of transactions from foreign buyers mainly arising from the anticipation of the revisions in the CIP investment criteria (which were effected from June 2019 onwards). 2. The spread of the pandemic, which resulted in businesses and individuals deferring investments in the face of physical restrictions and increased economic uncertainty, exacerbating the prevailing reduced levels of activity, observed throughout 2020. Cyprus Real Estate Fast Statistics Specifically, the total number of properties transacted during 2020 reached 14.000, compared to 17.200 in 2019, representing a 19% decrease. In transaction value terms, an even sharper drop was observed, with total transactions reaching €3,0bn during 2020, indicating a reduction of 32% (2019: €4,4bn).

San Francisco Tried to Build a $1.7 Million Toilet. It’s Still Not Done. (NYT) You could say San Francisco’s charming Noe Valley neighborhood has it all. But what Noe Valley still needs is a toilet. Fifteen months after city officials were ready to throw a party in the Noe Valley Town Square to celebrate funding for a tiny bathroom with a toilet and sink, nothing but mulch remains in its place. The toilet project broke down the minute taxpayers realized the city was planning an event to celebrate $1.7 million in state funds that local politicians had secured for the lone 150-square-foot structure. That’s enough to purchase a single-family home in San Francisco—with multiple bathrooms. Even more confounding was the explanation that the tiny bathroom would take two to three years to install because of the city’s labyrinthine permitting and building process. City leaders quickly canceled their potty party, and Gov. Gavin Newsom of California took back the funds. For many residents, the episode has illustrated why San Francisco so often gets bogged down by inefficiency. If an army of more than 30,000 city employees with a $14 billion annual budget cannot build a simple bathroom in a reasonable way, what hope is there that San Francisco can solve its housing shortage and fentanyl crisis?

Once tranquil Costa Rica eyes Salvadoran-inspired response to crime surge (Reuters) Once tranquil Costa Rica is now wrestling with a surge in violence so striking that its government is borrowing a page from nearby El Salvador, which took draconian steps to tackle its own crime problems. In an effort to cut a homicide rate that has soared 40% in the last year alone, Costa Rican President Rodrigo Chaves has introduced tough new legislation to combat crime, dubbing El Salvador a “reference” point. Chaves’ ideas include increasing jail sentences for minors to the adult maximum of 50 years, allowing extraditions, and extending use of preventive detention, making it easier to hold suspects with limited evidence. Costa Rica is one of a growing number of Latin American countries seeking to tackle the expansion of drug cartel activity by emulating Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele’s sweeping crackdown.

A Nationwide Shutdown Tests Milei’s Tough Medicine for Argentina (NYT) It has been six weeks since President Javier Milei took office in Argentina, and since then, gas prices have doubled, inflation has soared and the value of the national currency has plummeted. Such turmoil, he had warned, should be expected. Fixing decades of economic problems would first require more pain, he said. Yet on Wednesday, many Argentines took to the streets to show they have already had enough. Argentina’s largest labor unions called for a nationwide strike—including workers in transportation, construction, health care, food services, energy and banking—to protest Mr. Milei’s planned overhauls, arguing they would weaken protections for workers and the poor. Banks and many shops closed, doctors postponed surgeries, waste collection stopped and airlines canceled hundreds of flights, while thousands of people filled the streets in overwhelmingly peaceful demonstrations. Despite the economic chaos, Mr. Milei’s approval rating has stayed high, or even risen along with prices. Recent surveys show 58 percent of Argentines support him, two percentage points higher than his share of the November presidential vote.

Japan is rich, but many of its children are poor (AP) The women work hard, sleeping only a few hours a night, as they juggle the demands of caring for their children and doing housework—all while suffering from poverty. The award-winning independent documentary film “The Ones Left Behind,” released last year, tells the story of such single mothers in Japan, weaving together interviews with the women and experts, and showing the other side of a culture whose ideal is for women to get married and become stay-at-home housewives and mothers. “This is a topic that no one wants to really touch. In Japan, it’s very taboo,” Australian filmmaker Rionne McAvoy said Tuesday. “I think it’s a very apt title because I feel that single mothers and their children have really been left behind in society.” One woman in the film says she works from 8:30 a.m. until 7:30 p.m., while earning less than 200,000 yen ($1,350) a month. That’s sparse for a nation where the cost of living is relatively high, with monthly rent in cities easily taking up a third or half of that, for a tiny room.

Israeli hostage families push for new deal (Washington Post) Frustration is turning to fury for Israel’s hostage families. After three agonizing months of waiting for their children, parents and spouses to be freed, the hyper-organized community is growing more desperate, and more militant. On Monday, a group of hostage advocates stormed two committee meetings of the Knesset, Israel’s parliament, refusing to budge as they yelled at lawmakers, “You will not sit here while they die there.” Over the weekend, a hunger striker joined a protest encampment in front of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s private home in the coastal city of Caesarea. Another round-the-clock vigil—dubbed the “Time Has Run Out” encampment—occupies an intersection near his official residence in Jerusalem. Protesters poured a red liquid, symbolizing blood, onto the busy street Monday night. Some 132 hostages remain in captivity, although the Israeli prime minister’s office says 28 are believed to have died—either of their injuries or at the hands of Hamas. In December, three hostages were mistakenly killed by Israeli troops in Gaza as they tried to escape while waving white flags and shouting in Hebrew. Hamas has claimed, without evidence, that dozens of hostages have been killed in Israeli strikes.

U.N. Shelter in Besieged Khan Younis Is Struck, and at Least 9 Die (NYT) Israeli forces pushed deeper into southern Gaza’s largest city on Wednesday, surrounding two major hospitals where thousands of people were seeking safety as a strike on a United Nations shelter killed at least nine people, according to U.N. officials and local health officials. The Israeli military said it had “currently ruled out” that its aerial or artillery fire had been responsible for the strike on the shelter in Khan Younis, where the U.N. was housing about 800 people. In addition to the nine dead, 75 other people were injured, according to Thomas White, who helps oversee U.N. aid operations in Gaza. U.N. officials did not directly blame Israel, but said the shelter, in a vocational training center, had been hit by two tank rounds. Israel is the only combatant in Gaza with tanks. Philippe Lazzarini, the head of the U.N. Palestinian aid agency, said that the shelter was “clearly marked” as a U.N. facility and that its coordinates had been shared with the Israeli authorities. “Once again a blatant disregard of basic rules of war,” Mr. Lazzarini wrote on social media.

Stripped, Beaten or Vanished: Israel’s Treatment of Gaza Detainees Raises Alarm (NYT) Cold, almost naked and surrounded by Israeli soldiers with M16 assault rifles, Ayman Lubbad knelt among dozens of Palestinian men and boys who had just been forced from their homes in northern Gaza. It was early December and photographs and videos taken at the time showed him and other detainees in the street, wearing only underwear and lined up in rows, surrounded by Israeli forces. In one video, a soldier yelled at them over a megaphone: “We’re occupying all of Gaza. Is that what you wanted? You want Hamas with you? Don’t tell me you’re not Hamas.” Palestinian detainees from Gaza have been stripped, beaten, interrogated and held incommunicado over the past three months, according to accounts by nearly a dozen of the detainees or their relatives interviewed by The New York Times. Organizations representing Palestinian prisoners and detainees gave similar accounts in a report, accusing Israel of both indiscriminate detention of civilians and demeaning treatment of detainees. The United Nations human rights office said last week that Israel’s treatment of Gazan detainees might amount to torture. It estimated that thousands had been detained and held in “horrific” conditions before being released, sometimes with no clothes on, only diapers.

Egypt lashes out at “extremist Israeli leaders” after Netanyahu says IDF must seize Gaza-Egypt buffer zone (CBS News) In December, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu indicated that his country would need to take over a 100-yard buffer zone across Gaza’s 9-mile border with Egypt to fully end the IDF’s campaign in Gaza. Israel has long accused Egypt of allowing smugglers to operate through tunnels perforating its border with Gaza, claiming that weapons have made their way to Hamas through the corridor. Netanyahu said in late December, “It is clear that any other arrangement would not ensure the demilitarization that we seek.” “Egypt is capable of defending its interests and sovereignty over its land and borders and will not leave it in the hands of a group of extremist Israeli leaders who seek to drag the region into a state of conflict and instability,” said Diaa Rashwan, the Head of Egypt’s State Information Service. “The true essence of Israel’s claims,” he added, “is to justify its continuation of collective punishment, killing, and starvation of more than 2 million Palestinians inside the Gaza Strip, which it has practiced for 17 years.”

How a Ragtag Militia in Yemen Became a Nimble U.S. Foe (NYT) As the Biden administration approaches its third week of airstrikes against Houthi targets in Yemen, the Pentagon is trying to thread an impossibly tiny needle: making a dent in the Houthis’ ability to hit commercial and Navy vessels without dragging the United States into a prolonged war. It is a difficult task, made more so because the Houthis have perfected the tactics of irregular warfare, American military officials say. The group does not have many big weapons depots for American fighter jets to bomb—Houthi fighters are constantly on the move with missiles they launch from pickup trucks on remote beaches before hustling away. The first barrage of American-led airstrikes nearly two weeks ago hit nearly 30 locations in Yemen, destroying around 90 percent of the targets struck, Pentagon officials said. But even with that high success rate, the Houthis retained around 75 percent of their ability to fire missiles and drones at ships transiting the Red Sea.

Exercise increases brain volume and may slow memory decline (Washington Post) Exercising for 25 minutes a week, or less than four minutes a day, could help to bulk up our brains and improve our ability to think as we grow older. A new study, which involved scanning the brains of more than 10,000 healthy men and women from ages 18 to 97, found that those who walked, swam, cycled or otherwise worked out moderately for 25 minutes a week had bigger brains than those who didn’t, whatever their ages. Bigger brains typically mean healthier brains. The differences were most pronounced in parts of the brain involved with thinking and memory, which often shrink as we age, contributing to risks for cognitive decline and dementia.

A million people thrive in China’s secret underground city

Beneath the bustling streets of Beijing lies a secret underground city. Spanning an area of 78 square kilometers, this hidden metropolis is home to the “rat tribe,” a million people who cannot afford above-ground housing.

The capital city of Beijing, China, grapples with overcrowding, limited living spaces, and skyrocketing housing prices. As a result, nearly a million people have sought refuge in an underground city, unbeknownst to many. These individuals choose to reside in the cramped tunnels, remnants of a Cold War-era project (1969-1979) that enlisted over 300,000 workers. Their hope is to save enough money to eventually get an apartment with natural light.

CNN reported that despite the derogatory moniker “rat tribe” and the deplorable living conditions some endure, the underground city offers an array of amenities, including sports facilities, restaurants, hairdressers, cinemas, theaters, and other attractions that make it an intriguing destination for tourists.

Dubbed Dìxià Chéng, this underground city lies beneath Beijing’s vibrant streets, roughly 10 to 18 meters deep. Housing a million low-income residents who cannot afford above-ground accommodations, the three-story tunnels were originally constructed as bomb shelters during the Cold War and connected all the central government buildings in the city.

It is estimated that there are around 90 entrances to this city, many of which remain undiscovered by those unfamiliar with their locations. Most of the current residents, totaling around a million, are migrant workers and aspiring young people seeking opportunities in China’s capital city. While living spaces are small, crowded, and devoid of natural light, the rents are merely one-third of those found above ground.

Some residents have called this complex home for decades, while others temporarily relocate, staying until they have accumulated enough funds to secure a regular apartment in the bustling metropolis.

From a legal standpoint, nuclear shelters and residential areas are technically illegal due to a 2010 ruling by Beijing authorities. These officials cited safety hazards that negligent homeowners failed to address. However, despite the evacuation of some residents, the majority have been allowed to remain, facing an uncertain future.

What is the history of China’s secret underground city?

The construction of these tunnels commenced in 1969 during a period of heightened tensions and fear of a large-scale conflict between China and the Soviet Union. Chairman Mao Zedong of the Chinese Communist Party instructed citizens to dig tunnels, store food, and prepare for war.

Armed with shovels and bamboo baskets, people tirelessly dug by hand, sacrificing centuries-old walls, towers, and gates, including the historic city gates, to provide construction materials.

Over the course of a decade, approximately 300,000 civilians undertook this extraordinary endeavor, resulting in the creation of an impressive city with 10,000 atomic bunkers, warehouses, factories, and essential amenities such as restaurants, theaters, and sports facilities — everything a city would need to withstand a nuclear war.

What is life like in China’s secret underground city?

Life in Dìxià Chéng is not easy for its inhabitants. Many face challenges such as poor ventilation, dampness, mold, pests, noise pollution, lack of privacy, and social stigma. Some rooms are so small that they can barely fit a bed and a desk. Others have no windows or natural light at all.

However, not all residents are unhappy with their living conditions. Some appreciate the convenience and affordability of living close to their workplaces and public transportation. Others enjoy the sense of community and camaraderie among their neighbors. Some even decorate their rooms with colorful curtains, posters, plants

and personal belongings to make them more cozy and comfortable.

Some residents also take advantage of the various facilities and services available in the underground city. There are gyms, karaoke bars, internet cafes, beauty salons, libraries, and even schools and hospitals. Some of these establishments are run by the residents themselves, who have found ways to earn a living and provide for their families.

What is the future of China’s secret underground city?

The future of Dìxià Chéng is uncertain. While some residents hope to move out someday, others have grown accustomed to their subterranean lifestyle and have no plans to leave. Some even fear that they will lose their homes if the authorities decide to demolish or renovate the tunnels.

The government has been ambivalent about the existence of the underground city. On one hand, it recognizes the need to provide affordable housing for its citizens and to preserve the historical and cultural value of the tunnels. On the other hand, it worries about the safety and sanitation issues, as well as the potential social unrest and instability that could arise from such a large and marginalized population.

Some experts have suggested that the government should regulate and improve the living conditions of the underground city, rather than evict or ignore its residents. They argue that the underground city could be transformed into a unique and attractive tourist destination, as well as a valuable resource for urban planning and development.

Others have proposed that the government should invest in building more public housing and creating more job opportunities for the low-income groups, so that they can afford to live above ground and enjoy a better quality of life.

Whatever the fate of Dìxià Chéng may be, it remains a fascinating and remarkable example of human resilience, adaptation, and creativity in the face of adversity.

Pug Dog Special Information Weight, Price, Image, Colors, Personality & More…

The Pug Dog is a breed of dog originally from China, with the anatomically distinctive features of a wrinkled, small-mouthed face and curled tail. The breed has a fine, shiny coat that comes in a variety of colors, most often light brown or black, and a compact, square body with well-developed and thick muscles throughout the body.

Pugs were brought to Europe from China in the sixteenth century and were popularized in Western Europe by the House of Orange and the House of Stuart in the Netherlands.

In the United Kingdom, in the nineteenth century, Queen Victoria developed a passion for pugs which she passed on to other members of the royal family.

Pugs are known for being friendly and gentle companion dogs. The American Kennel Club describes the personality of the breed as “even-tempered and charming”.

Dogs are popular in the twenty-first century, with some well-known celebrity owners.

They range in height from 10 to 11 inches and in weight from 14 to 18 pounds (six to eight kilograms). They are square dogs with substantial limbs. Pugs are the sturdiest dogs of the toy group, befitting their mastiff heritage.

Did You Know About Pugs?

Among the rich and famous fans of the pug are King Louis XIV; Josephine, Empress of Napoleon; Queen Victoria; The Duke and Duchess of Windsor; and fashion designer Valentino.

Purpose :

Pugs were bred to be the companions of royalty. They originated in the Far East and can be traced back to the first century B.C. They were considered royal dogs in China, owned by aristocrats, and bestowed as precious gifts – rather than sold – to rulers in foreign countries.

History About Pug Dog :

Pugs originated in China, and date back to the Han Dynasty (206 BC to AD 200). Some historians believe that they are related to the Tibetan Mastiff. They were prized by the emperors of China and lived in luxurious residences, sometimes guarded by soldiers.

Pugs are one of three types of short-nosed dogs that have been bred by the Chinese: the lion dog, the Pekingese, and the lo-sez, which was the ancient pug.

Some think that China’s famous “fu dogs” represent ancient pugs. Evidence of dogs like the pug has been found in ancient Tibet and Japan.

The pug quickly became a favorite of royal families across Europe, and even played a part in the history of many of these families.

In Holland, the dog became the official dog of the House of Orange after allegedly saving the life of Prince William of Orange, warning him that the Spaniards were approaching in 1572.

When William of Orange went to England in 1688 with his wife, Mary II, to take the throne from James II, they brought their paws with them.

It is known that black pugs existed in the 1700s because the famous artist, William Hogarth, was a pug enthusiast. He portrayed a black Pug and many others in his famous paintings.

In 1785, Goya also depicted pugs in his paintings.

As the popularity of the pug spread across Europe, it was often known by different names in different countries. In France, it was called Carlin; Dogulo in Spain; in Germany mops; and in Italy, Caganalino.

Marie Antoinette had a Pug named Mops before she married Louis XVI at the age of 15. Another famous French woman, Josephine Bonaparte, had a Pug named Fortune.

Before marrying Napoleon Bonaparte, she was imprisoned in Les Carmes prison. Since her beloved Pug was the only “visitor” she was allowed in, she would hide messages in her collar to take to her family.

In the early 1800s, pugs were standardized as a breed, with the two lines becoming dominant in England. One line was called the Morrison Line and, reportedly, was installed on the royal dogs of Queen Charlotte, the wife of George III.
