			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The mayor of London has launched a new website in order to help tenants, landlords a pricing guide on property. The London Rents Map shows rents for different types of home across London. All we need to do is type in a postcode, Tube station, borough and the website will list in the average price for any property we are looking for. The website will help us rent a property ranging from a room to a shared flat or a four bedroom flat with the price range that we are looking for.</p>
<p>These property prices show actual market rents and not just some pricing. Often websites post prices quoted by estate agents and not the actual rent which is much higher. This map has a color coded map showing from the cheapest rents to the most expensive ones. Each color has a price range. Dartford is the most cheapest while Kensington is the most expensive. The website also has guidelines on tenancy agreements and deposits. Users find this website a very useful site for both landlords and tenants and this website supports London’s private rented sector.</p>
<p>With the help of this website it also helps the economy, diversity of the rented sector so that it can accommodate people within all price tags and help them find their home. People are often mislead or do not know where to look for an appropriate property. This is a perfect one stop website for a rented house within the price range we are looking for. This is an initiative so that the property sector takes a growth and helps the newcomers in the city find a shelter for themselves.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The latest development in the real estate sector of the UK’s largest property company, Land Securities is that they will start indirect real estate deals through derivatives. During the two year downturn period no one was willing to invest in the share market but now the growth of trade is accelerating. Trades that were carried out towards the end of 2009 showed an increase in investors. Global property derivatives increased in the last quarter of 2009 and they acquired contract worth £762 m carried out in 78 trades. UK is the vanguard for development of property derivatives and this is mainly due to the use of IPD index. 90% of the global trading activity is recorded in UK itself.</p>
<p>But there are many other countries that do not have an unswerving source of property pricing. Even US is yet to use derivatives wholeheartedly. Derivatives are used more openly in the European markets such as Germany and France. Generally trading is done o the overall IPD index but investors such as Prudential’s property funds have started to trade derivatives based on development of certain sector within property such as retail and London Offices. These properties can also be used for derivative trading.</p>
<p>This step will help more people to invest. Even if shares of one sector falls the other sector can act as a back up depending on that sector’s potential. There is a lot of prospective by using derivatives. Commercial property owners can lock income returns and evade capital values if they fear a fall in prices. The residential derivative market is not very often traded and in the last quarter of 2009 residential derivative contracts were traded against Halifax House Price Index for an estimated £150 m.</p>
