Hundreds of buyers scrambled to snap up luxury homes on the largest of Dubai’s palm-shaped islands where villas are going for 10 times the price of when the project was launched — but never built — two decades ago. Brokers and investors queued in 100° Fahrenheit (38° Celsius) heat from 6 a.m. on Wednesday outside Nakheel PJSC’s sales center where the government-backed developer is selling hundreds of five-to-seven bedroom villas on the undeveloped Palm Jebel Ali — about 50 kilometers from downtown Dubai. Homes start at 18.7 million dirhams ($5.1 million), while the cheapest plots of land are selling for about 40 million dirhams. Armed with...

A town in southern England has grown so much in the last 60 years that it’s become the fastest-moving property market outside the north-west. Before World War II, Basingstoke was a small market town – but expanded substantially in the 1960s to accommodate Londoners who were being relocated because of housing shortages. It has grown so much since then that it’s now Hampshire’s largest town and continues to attract a steady stream of people who have quit the capital but still want easy access to it. An increase in passenger numbers recently resulted in more direct trains to and from London’s Waterloo station. According to Zoopla, properties here typically...

What goes up must come down. That rule applies to Sir Rod Stewart’s sprawling Los Angeles compound, which, two months after a significant price bump, has now had $6 million chopped from its asking price. The canary-colored mansion first hit the market for $70 million in June. In December, its ask was pumped up to $80 million, and this week’s adjustment has left the sticker price on the European-inspired estate at $74 million. Either way, the sale will spell a big profit for the “Maggie May” singer, 79, who bought the roughly 3-acre estate for $12.08 million in 1991, records show, and drafted architect Richard...

Live like the king of your own hill in this fortress of yore. In the north of England, the 900-year-old Appleby Castle, once the palace of bona fide kings and queens, now seeks a deep-pocketed buyer to call it home, Bloomberg reports. “A unique relic from medieval England,” the estate boasts 22 bedrooms, 19 bathrooms and is set on 25 acres of enclosed parkland, according to its listing, which is priced at $11.87 million and held by United Kingdom Sotheby’s International Realty’s Guy Bradshaw. Built in the 12th century, the historically designated property offers such monarchical amenities as a 13th-century round tower, a 15th-century dining room, two Great Halls...
