Fitzrovia got its name from “Fitzroy tavern”. Fitzroy tavern is a public house in the charlotte street. This name was approved during inter-war period by the bohermian and artistic community. This public house is named  after Baron Southampton (or bohemian). In eighteenth century, Bohemian has initially developed northern part of fitzrovia. Later Fitzroy purchased tottenhall manor and also constructed Fitzroy square. Even Fitzroy Street is also named after him. This is the famous feature of fitzrovia. The Fitzroy square is one of the most original and eminent architectural characteristics of this place.

The Fitzroy square is partly designed by Rober Adam. In the beginning of nineteenth century, major part of London is being built. Much of the fizrrovia is developed by minor proper holders. This resulted in the predominance of irregular and small streets. The other districts like Bloomsbury and Marylebone were subject to the domination by few landlords. As a result, the developments of this area and property in fitzrovia were more systematic. Till 20th century, fitzrovia was not actually a fashionable district.

The famous feature of fitzrovia is the maple street, BT tower and many more. Maple Street and BT tower is one of the most eminent and tallest buildings in this area. Till IRA bomb explosion these buildings were open to the general public. In 1971, after the bomb explosion in the nearby restaurant it was not open. Terrorists mainly focus on the heart or major areas of London. Fizrovia is famous for the major tourist attraction as this place gives a village feel.

The popularity of holiday homes in the UK is on the increase not only for the owner`s sole use but also by way of letting, thus creating an additional income.

As with any property purchase, location is critical when choosing a holiday home; arguably more so when the need to consider its letting potential is factored in. Coastal regions are ever popular with families, primary examples of which are Devon and Cornwall, the North Yorkshire Coast with Kent and East Anglia becoming increasingly popular. Classic English Country Cottages are to be found in various regions of Yorkshire, the Lake District, Wales, The Cotswolds and Scotland, all of which have long proven popular with those looking to let a holiday home.

Buying a second home to let needs planning and there are numerous factors to consider.

When calculating a rental income, all costs need to be considered to ensure that your new endeavour is actually profitable. These are far from restricted to any mortgage payments and include utilities, Council Tax and TV licence. A good quality internet connection is also increasingly expected in holiday homes, particularly by families with teenagers wanting to keep in touch with friends. Remember that as with any other business venture, any net income from your property will be subject to tax.

There maybe tax advantages if your property qualifies as a furnished holiday letting. Profit on furnished holiday lettings is calculated in the same manner as that for other rental income, except that you may claim `capital allowances` rather than a `wear and tear` allowance. Examples of expenses that may qualify for capital allowances include the cost of furnishings and furniture and equipment such as refrigerators and washing machines.

To qualify for as a holiday home letting, the property must be in the EU; furnished; available for commercial letting to the public as holiday accommodation for at least 140 days a year; commercially let as holiday accommodation for at least 70 days a year (the rent must be charged at market rate – not at discounted rates to friends and family)

The holiday lets must be (both) short term lets of not more than 31 days and they must be the ONLY form of lets for at least 210 days (211 days in a leap year)

You cannot let the property as a holiday let to the same person for more than 31 days in the year. However, if you meet all the qualifying tests for 210 (or 211) days there are no restrictions on longer lets in the remaining 155 days. But these longer lets do not count as holiday lets.

Seasons will have an impact on rents with school holidays and the summer season driving higher rates not forgetting the Christmas period which is becoming increasingly popular. Peak seasons will vary according to the location, climate and local events with a good range of indoor and outdoor activities rendering a given location more attractive.

The size of your holiday home will also have an impact for letting purposes. Three to four bedroom homes are particularly good for families or groups, whilst one or two bedrooms are good for couples. More and more people are now taking their pets on holiday and facilities for pets are thus a consideration. For larger groups with children, camp beds or sofa beds can create more sleeping space.

It is important to keep the property well maintained as first impressions are vital. Welcome packages create a good first impression, providing essentials grocery and toiletries such as bread and milk and a bottle of wine for relaxation after travelling. Hiring a cleaner for change over is essential and consideration needs to be given to the handover of keys and security particularly if your holiday home is of considerable distance from your main home. A local manager may be necessary and there are many firms specialising in providing suitable services.

Personal or fragile items which you want for your own use should be stored away in a lockable cupboard, garage or outhouse to avoid the risk of breakages. You will also need to procure appropriate buildings, contents and public liability insurance, with many insurance firms offering policies specifically tailored to the letting market.

Good communication with your guests will help them respect your property. It is also important to take a deposit and sign a contract as you would when booking package holidays. Breakages and damage should be covered within the contract.

The property prices are rising at daily basis in Dubai. The real estate and property dealing service are going to the decline due to the rising prices of property. It is really financial issue for the Dubai economy, the increasing prices of Dubai. It is almost impossible for a middle class person living inside or outside Dubai to buy any property and most of the people working in Dubai are middle class because they are hired from such under developed countries like India, Pakistan, Bangladesh etc. they can not afford to live in Dubai now and are shifting back to their countries or other sides. 
Dubai has developed its infrastructure on such outsource people from small countries but now they are leaving Dubai due to rising property prices and their effects on the living. And this is not a good thing for Dubai and its progress.
But if you have money, and you want to buy a property in Dubai, it is a good opportunity for you to buy a house or property in Dubai because in spite of all the facts disturbing the mediocre, Dubai is still a blessing for rich people who can invest and earn lots of profits in the business of property dealing.  This is one of the reasons that investment in properties of Dubai is still going on and people are buying and selling their property to earn profits. But the market consistency in Dubai is not acceptable via this condition because increase in prices has affected much to people living in Dubai. The rents of shops, malls and plazas are increasing as well and they are rising the prices of every day products and almost everything has grown up due to the rising prices of properties through out in Dubai. And due to the high prices it is affecting purchasing power of ordinary people who are now going back to their homelands or other countries to live and settle a good life there.   People concerning the property issues must think about the increasing and rising prices of property. They should think about the purchasing powers on individual basis and try to make some policies to solve the rising prices issue of real estate in Dubai. But if this issue is not taken seriously, Dubai can face a real problem which can directly affect the economy of the city and people living in it.

The rising prices of everything have affected Dubai and its financial situation. The ever rising prices of properties and Dubai real estate are on the top of financial crisis which Dubai is facing.  It becomes really difficult for people to afford there house on rents and buying property. Dubai was considered as the safe haven for about previous forty years but now the world crisis in which inflation has contributed a lot due to rise in patrol and petroleum goods prices has affected the Dubai’s economy. Everything from day to day usual products to luxuries prices has increased at about more than two percent ratio. We can not neglect the fact that this modern city is built by the loans taken from Swiss banks and the interest rates are increasing with every passing year. So it is really hard to say that Dubai can survive if it does not make a good plan to stabilize its economy.
The true problem that is hitting straightly the financial issues of Dubai is the property and real estate business.  Dubai is one of the most expensive cities to live in and the labor class of Dubai is usually from the third world countries like India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and their purchasing power is not like others and it is impossible for them to buy a property or place to live in Dubai.  They can hardly afford the basic Necessities due to increase in prices of the world so they can not buy a home in Dubai.
Dubai is oil producing market and the oil reservoirs are slowly diminishing and it can be a situation very near when Dubai has to buy oil from other countries and this can really be hurdle for the economy of the Dubai. And in case it happens than Dubai will remain no more a perfect place to live and enjoy life because everything from head to toe will really go on high price.
Dubai really needs now to make new policies and static’s to balance its financial crisis. Government of Dubai needs to hire good economist to make its economy stable. Otherwise within five years the Dubai economy can go in really worst condition. So proper planning to deal with financial crisis in Dubai is very important issue  so that it can face other Economical crisis for long time without disturbing the every day life but if it does not it is totally destruction for Dubai.

Financial crisis has taken all over the world. Every country is facing sort of financial crisis and the most powerful economies like America, China and Russia and India are facing the world wide financial crisis and if we particularly talk about Europe and middle East countries, we will see that Turkey is facing crucial financial situation due to increase in inflation and de value of local currency as compare to other currencies. These crises are still to go for some more seven or eight months reported by Turkey ministry but the situation is still hard to control within sometime. But what is more concerning about Turkish economy is it is not globalizing economy as other European countries are. Somehow it is beneficial but more than that it is totally a disadvantage because international markets are always changing and with in sometime, the IMF and World Bank try to cover-up the problems by providing financial solutions but Turkey is not part of world social economy so it remains in crisis.
If we see the positive aspects regarding Turkish economy we see that the higher executives of economy and finance are capable to save Turkey from high effects of world’s financial crisis. The trained bank system, balance of payments, market system and infrastructure of business are designed in way that they can wok on their own despite depending on the world bank and IMF policies that are difficult and sometimes impossible to mange for developing countries and that is the reason that still Turkey’s economy is going good on the contrary to the world.
Turkey has set the rules and regulations for the foreign exchange currencies and markets in a way that they do not de value the local currency. And if some countries plan the foreign exchange rates with its local currency than chances are very rare to face crisis and this is what Turkey is managing for its money to remain stable for long.
Another factor that can affect any countries economy is the political condition and Turkey has to face the instable political issues because it lies between Europe and Middle East and religion crisis are always a problem for Turkey but still they had a good repute unlike other countries that had spoiled the economy due to religious crisis. 
So we can say that Turkey is one of the strongest countries who are facing the financial crisis with determination and planning.

Usually people living in under developed countries make plans to moving overseas to find better ways of jobs and studies. Students from all over the world travel in such countries where they find best opportunities to get higher education along with a small job that they can manage. If we talk about countries like India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal etc, the students are the highest in number who travel to overseas like Australia, England, Canada and America to get good quality education. But it is always not a good option to go so far by spending thousands of dollars and pounds and in the end getting nothing. Only those people and students are successful outside their own countries that have strength and determine who always make good plans and take positive decisions towards their career to make it more stable and working. And all those students who are never serious in life always come back to their home countries after wasting thousands of dollars of their parents who have manages to provide them with difficulty.
The life overseas is of course attractive but when you go and experience by your own self it is not a bed of roses. You have to do endless effort to settle and earn their and if you are student, you have to manage your studies side by side which is not an easy task. I always de appreciate those people who says that we can move overseas and get settled in just one year or six months and in real these people can not get settle in even six years because they are some foolish cows who think that life is very easy overseas. They lie in the category of such people who have done nothing in their own countries and are able to do nothing outside their country.
It is duty of parents to guide their children about the rights and wrongs of going overseas and if you think that your children have no potential to face the difficulties individually never allow them to go and study or wok overseas because in the end, you have to face all circumstances created by your children. Do not waste your money instead you can help them to settle in your own country where you can provide help and guidance.
It is always thinkable to see the situation of overseas where you want to go from the perspective of political, religion and economical issues because you can be a part of such situation if you have no idea about that land where you are moving to earn money or for further studies.
