When is Real Estate Regulation Bill expected?
Q: When will the Real Estate Regulation Bill to be passed? Will it provide any relaxation to a common man?

My replies to this discussion
Hi everybody, We are very close to achieve this amended bill which has several penalties clause for the builders. As per the current news, the Parliamentary Select Committee for the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Bill 2013 is likely to push for more strict clauses that may lead to imprisonment of builders if they do not fulfill their obligations to home-buyers.Hi everybody, We are very close to achieve this amended bill which has several penalties clause for the builders.

But decision is yet to come Bikram.....and hoping for the best... Now, housing projects on more than 500 sq-mt would have to register with the proposed real estate regulator as opposed to the threshold at 1000 sq-mt that was fixed earlier. Also, the interest rate payable by the promoter or allottee in case of any default by either would be the same now.
It is true Vikash..... And if failure to do so would lead to a penalty of 10% of the project cost. For subsequent violations, they will be charged another 10% of the project cost or sentenced to a three-year jail term. This decision would really protect buyer interests and encourage investment in the real estate sector.

It is true Sanjana, It is true Devraj, At the same time a builder or developer will have to enclose details of its existing projects, details of approvals, land title and payment dues while applying for registration of any project with the authority. The panel define again the carpet area, according to them, the net usable floor area of an apartment, excluding the area covered by the external walls and that under service shafts, exclusive balcony or verandah and open terrace areas, although it would include the area covered by the internal partition walls of the apartment.
Hi all, I am happy to hear that Housing Ministry has accepted a proposal of a Parliamentary panel's recommendation on the Real Estate Bill to make the provisions stricter and increase the 50% threshold but not lower it. The Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation ministry has also accepted all 38 recommendations made by the 21-member Rajya Sabha select committee which submitted its report last week.

I also heard that the steps was taken after holding public consultations across the country, several members of the panel are of the opinion that provisions for prosecution and imprisonment should be added in most cases where builders fail to discharge their duties and functions. I appreciate the panel's decision. It will bring more clarity in the Indian real estate market.

Hi Rakshit, It means "Achche Din Aa gaye". Modi Govt is really doing a great job for this country. Currently, there are many builders who have to be controlled in and the current disciplinary action measures may not work as a sufficient defensive. So, the main objectives of the committee is to see how best they can protect the interests of helpless consumers from the high-handedness of powerful, unethical builders.
Even tt look to me Vineet, The existing version of the bill provides for setting up state-level housing regulatory authorities and tribunals, and includes all residential and commercial projects over a certain area under its limit.

Hi Folks..... Cheers for the home buyers and investors........The select committee of Rajya Sabha would have tabled its report on the The Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Bill, 2013 yesterday.
I think it can be accepted.......it will help both buyers and developer. But they are only discussing i don't know when are they going to implement it. Different party has sifferent view. Earlier, the NDA government had reduced it to 50% or less and allowed the state governments to lower the amount further. As per the AIADMK and Samajwadi Party states should be given the liberty to decide if they want to allow lower the percentage. Member from the Congress have given a difference of opinion proposing the said percentage be increased to 70%.

Delay in project.
Q: I have booked on 26-1-2009, only 59 % work is completed for B wing. Why there is delay in project, since started from january 2009 and no work is in progress. initially assured possession in Nov.2011, then March 2013 and I don'tthink that it will finish during 2013.

My comments to replies
Hi everybody, Is there any one from A- wing buyer? As per last communication with the sales executive the final date communicated to us is Apr-2014, but looking at the current status it is impossible to make it even by Apr-2015/16.
Hi Mr Praveen, As per my knowledge, if a project is delayed, surely there is more than one buyer involved. Try getting together with local action groups that have a common goal. Also, try to understand the stage of construction at which you chose to get in. Was it the Pre launch stage when you put in your money and the approvals had not come? You should be careful about that.

Day before yesterday, i heard that the govt. has strictly told the opposition for the final sitting on Land Acquisition Bill and today once again a good news for middle class people. This project will really help to fill the country's significant housing deficit. At the same time it will help to increase availability of affordable and value homes in India.
13th May 2015
Chalo kisi ka to bhala ho raha hai........At the same time this move will help them to become India's largest home provider in the value and affordable housing section by 2018-19.

Property tax in Mumbai
Q: How are the citizens of Mumbai responding to the property tax bills which have been received recently? What is being done? I am completely against it. Do you also feel so??

My replies to this discussion
The new method of calculating tax and the transition was aimed at reforming the current municipal tax system, due to which a major cause for concern has risen. Furthermore, the senior citizens are even concerned about the receipt of huge property tax bills with retrospective effect from April 2010.The new method of calculating tax and the transition was aimed at reforming the current municipal tax system, due to which a major cause for concern has risen.

My comments to replies
The year 2013 has been quite mouthful for the property market of Pune. At a time, when the real estate markets in the country have been moving at a slow pace, Pune had grown in a matured steady market. In addition to it the year also witnessed listing of luxury landscape in Pune’s property market.
A number demand drivers have been at work behind the growth graph of the realty segment of Pune in 2013. With the economic outlook of the country turning brighter in the days to come, Pune is expected to witness more appreciation than Mumbai. This tags Pune as one of the most attractive markets in 2014 in the country.
12th January 2014

Any idea what are the reason that Pune is going to witness more appreciation than Mumbai?
Pune market has witnessed a lot of activity in 2013 and as per developers, the number of new launches in the city will rise in 2014. This indicates that the market was not hit by a slowdown. Experts are of the notion that the property market in Pune will maintain its momentum in 2014, against all odds.
12th January 2014

The outskirts of Pune have a competitive advantage, as far as residential segment is concerned. The rates in the residential segment have increased by 25-30% and the market is likely to grow by 10-12% for the year 2014.
As per some key developers, the property market in Pune will witness renewed demand from the NRIs along with investors from its neighbouring city-Mumbai. Stagnation of the Mumbai property market and affordability of apartments in the city has done the trick for Pune’s real estate market.

I agree with Mr Rakshit.. But firstly, you have to submit an estimate of the total cost of construction, duly certified by an architect/ civil engineer. Then you can take out a construction loan for constructing a dwelling unit on a piece of land already owned by you. I agree with Mr Rakshit..

OCCUPANCY CERTIFICATE
Q: Hi All, Hope u guys are aware of the latest news about the Worli ( Campa Cola Society) demolishen. 170 flat owners have been asked to leave just because they did not have the occupancy certificate.. Although the flat owners had paid their yearly taxes and had the flat registered 20yrs ago, the govt has declared it to be illegal.. This only reminds me that few blocks in PWC are still not given with the OC. Note: This is not to create any worry, just a concern that we all need to squarely plan and resolve.

My replies to this discussion
Between 1981 and 1989, seven high rises were constructed on the Campa Cola compound. As the builders had committed FSI violation of 1,774 sqm in total development of 19,600 sqm. As per the Supreme Court orders, the BMC was to raze the illegal floors in the seven buildings following. In February, the SC had ruled that all floors above the fifth in the seven buildings will have to be demolished, and residents cannot ask for these floors to be regularized. In May, the 140 families again moved the SC, which then granted them six months reprieve to vacate flats.Between 1981 and 1989, seven high rises were constructed on the Campa Cola compound.

Real estate market in Ulwe has been a major attraction for many ever since the ambitious projects like Mumbai Trans-Harbour Link (MTHL) and Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA) were announced.Property prices suddenly shot up and a sizeable population also bought property here in anticipation of the locality's growth.
The average property price during the Q4 2012 was approximately Rs. 5,700 per sq.ft. However, the delay in infrastructural projects is now raising the question – Is Ulwe a good destination to invest in?

My replies to this discussion
Hi many builders are now a days coming up with schemes to sell their projects fast. Srushti Regency has the payment plan of 20 : 80 . in that you have to pay 20 % of the money at the booking time and rest 80% at the time of possession. This is how your EMI will start only after you will get the possession. I would suggest you to collect all the documents from the builder and engage a lawyer to do the document check and if the layer approves in that case you can buy the project without any issue.Hi many builders are now a days coming up with schemes to sell their projects fast.

The global economic meltdown has constantly led to slump in property rates of major cities across the nation, Mumbai, the commercial capital of India, being one of them.
But inspite of rising inventory and steady decline in Mumbai’s real estate market, multi-storeyed projects in the city has witnessed an escalation path.

Real estate rates in Navi Mumbai
Q: How is the rates of properties in Navi Mumbai? Is it similar to Mumbai?

My comments to replies
Despite a slack real estate market, the high property prices has spread from Mumbai to Navi Mumbai.
The Palm Beach Road stretching from Vashi to Belapur is demanding property price equal to some hot spots in Mumbai. The fancy new buildings in this stretch are going for anything between Rs 15,000 to Rs 20,000 per sqft.

Kharghar has some expensive complexes such as Hiranandani Complex and Kendriya Vihar. Spaghetti complex is one of the biggest complexes here. The Indian Armed Forces have the Jalvayu Vihar and Raghunath Vihar here. There are a number of expensive projects coming up here such as the Kesar Harmony, Regency Gardens, Galaxy Orion and Cypress Aqua, which are making Kharghar a posh locality. There are several Hollywood style luxury villas planned on Kharghar hills.

Real estate trends in Mumbai
Q: How is the real estate trends in Worli, Prabhadevi and Dadar West?

My replies to this discussion
Owing to the expansion plans of IT/ITeS-BPO sectors in these areas and the proximity to the commercial zones, the demand for 1, 2 and 3-BHK units in Worli, Prabhadevi and Dadar West are set to go up.Owing to the expansion plans of IT/ITeS-BPO sectors in these areas and the proximity to the commercial zones, the demand for 1, 2 and 3-BHK units in Worli, Prabhadevi and Dadar West are set to go up.
Some other contributors to the rising demand are the proximity of the localities to Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport and Railway Terminus, which can be reached in less than half an hour. Dadar west has close proximity to the western and central railway lines. The western railway is about 800 mt away and the central railway is just one km away. This makes the locality well-connected to Mumbai, Thane and Navi Mumbai.Some other contributors to the rising demand are the proximity of the localities to Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport and Railway Terminus, which can be reached in less than half an hour.

Redeveloping Dilapidated Buildings in Mumbai
Q: What is the reason for the slow pace of redevelopment process?

My replies to this discussion
The Maharashtra government has introduced several incentives and regulations for redevelopment work for old and cessed buildings. These involve both individual as well as cluster redevelopment. However, the approval procedures are tedious and complicated. Another problem that the redevelopment process is facing is the rampant corruption among approving officials, which slows down the entire process. According to a survey by Remaking of Mumbai Federation (RoMF), the C ward alone has about 2,900 old buildings of which, only 15 have undergone redevelopment as off now.The Maharashtra government has introduced several incentives and regulations for redevelopment work for old and cessed buildings.

Yes you are right. The project had already got delayed due to various reasons. However, the roadblock came in the form of uncertainty over traffic dispersal system. There is no consensus between MMRDA, the traffic police and the BMC over traffic dispersal and management. The traffic police department has called the MMRDA's traffic plans as impractical and difficult to implement. MMRDA had designed a plan creating traffic medians, parking bays and side pavements for giving way to commuters.

Real estate in Navi Mumbai
Q: I heard that real estate sector scenario looks bleak in Navi Mumbai. Is the statement true?

My comments to replies
What is the reason for reducing demand for properties in Navi Mumbai?
The current situation of the proposed infrastructure projects is uncertain as the projects are facing several bottlenecks. The MTHL project which would significantly reduce commute time between South Mumbai and Navi Mumbai failed to attract bidders for the third time in a row. The Navi Mumbai International Airport is facing problems with land acquisition. This uncertainty of the infrastructure projects has put prospective buyers on the back foot.

My comments to replies
@Bikram, As i thought it has never been able to do so because of its creaking infrastructure. Fadnavis can do little to open up the financial markets and make his city attractive for global finance, but improving Mumbais physical infrastructure is very much part of his directive.
@Sankalp, Of course, this is not the first time. Residents complain that the Mumbai Metropolitan Authority (MMRDA), the nodal agency for Mumbai Metro, has not kept them informed of any possible danger to their homes and not taken them in confidence about any rehabilitation plan. The biggest challenge Maharashtra’s previous Congress-Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) government faced in executing infrastructure projects was land acquisition and the rehabilitation of project-affected persons (PAPs).

50% of MMRDA Rental Housing to be Transit Tenements
Q: I read some where that the Maharashtra state government has approved the proposal of using 50% of rental flats built by the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority. Where are they going to build these kind of apartments in the city?

My comments to replies
Yes even I have read about it in net that The Maharashtra state government has approved the proposal of using 50% of rental flats built by the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) as transit settlements for people belonging to cessed and dilapidated buildings.
MMRDA will be constructing a total of 23,000 apartment units for rental purposes in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) and it is expected to obtain about 7,400 units by the end of 2013. Out of these, 2,250 are in Thane, 4,500 are in Panvel and the remaining in Mira-Bhayandar.
23rd August 2013

In recent years, Mumbai has seen many building collapses. Most of these buildings involved old cessed and dilapidated buildings, built earlier than 1940. Most of the dilapidated buildings owned by private owners are in this condition owing to the negligence of the land owners.
The BMC has identified about 960 old dilapidated buildings in Mumbai while the MMRDA has identified 66 in Mira-Bhayandar and 1,100 dilapidated buildings in Thane. Approximately 90 families have already been offered rental accommodation in Thane. However, these families haven't moved in yet, as they are afraid of losing their homes.

Eight Cities to See Fresh Demand of 2.8 Million Housing Units
Q: Which are the eight cities which is going to see fresh demand of 2.8 million housing units and in how many years?

My comments to replies
Out of the total demand in these eight cities, the majority demand will come from the middle income group (MIG) and the higher income groups (HIG). The demand from these groups is expected to come up to 2.5 million units. The demand for the lower income group (LIG) units is expected to be low in these cities viz. a mere 3,00,000, due to expected increase in income and housing standards.
What is the reason for such a cumulative gap between the supply and demand for housing units in the MIG and HIG segments in these eight cities?

Hi everybody, Here are some good news on Affordable Housing. Now the affordable homes in Mumbai may not be a distant dream. As Maharashtra Government has been concerned on giving affordable housing. As per the the Maharashtra government, they will change rules and regulations to help in delivery of affordable housing projects for the millions of the state's poor. Making sure that the offered new housing policy would be "pro-people", CM Fadnavis told the developers to work together with the government in its mission to provide affordable housing for the lower-middle class and the poor people.
Hi Shantanu, This news was came while the Maharashtra CM was speaking at a conference on "Vision Maharashtra - Housing For All by 2022" organized by National Real Estate Development Council. As per the Maharashtra CM, they have taken this issue very seriously and are fully commited to apply it. Govt. will make the laws versatile and he am ready to face criticism.

Mumbai sees lowest sales registrations
Q: What happen to Mumbai real estate? Why it has seen the lowest sales registration?

My comments to replies
The Mumbai realty market registered a growth of 11.2% sales from January to September this year compared to same period in 2012. There were a total of approximately 48,400 sales from January to September this year compared to 43,500 during the same period last year. In fact, the first half of 2013 had also registered a year-on-year growth of 16%. However, post September, the market has considerably slowed down registering a year-on-year decline of 8.4% in this month.
The growth in sales registrations during the first half of 2013 can be attributed to the number of new project launches following clarity on DCR (development control rules) after over a year-and-a-half. However, sales slowed down drastically later due to change in customer sentiments. There were several factors that affected customer sentiments.

I am planning to invest either in Ulwe or Dombivali? Which place is good for investment?
Q: Property in Dombivali & Ulwe

My replies to this discussion
Dombivali is a good locality to buy a house or invest in a property as the locality is showing good signs of price rise in recent times. Many people are preferring Dombivali as staying destination because the prices are affordable and have not reached sky high. It is mostly preferred by middle and upper middle income group. Due to good connectivity by road and rail mode of transport, Dombivali is emerging as one of the leading property destination in current times.Dombivali is a good locality to buy a house or invest in a property as the locality is showing good signs of price rise in recent times.

Second Homes for weekend getaways and for investment reasons
Q: I would like to buy a second home for weekend getaways and also from investment point of view?? Any places around Mumbai???

My comments to replies
Hi Shri, Happy to learn that you are planning to buy a second home around Mumbai for weekend getaways and also to accommodate additional guests.. But you have not mentioned about the budget you are looking at??? You will find many second homes in places like Igatapuri, Lonavala, Khandala, Mahabaleshwar with a price tag ranging from 1 crore to 5 crores. Having an asset in form of second home will further mean long time financial security. In addition, appreciation in capital values can result in a significant corpus via sale of the asset, if and when needed.
Yes Mr Anuj I totally agree with you. Having a second home is always a good option as investment. But I came across that there are some localities like Talegaon, Wada, Manor, Murbad, Shahapur, etc., where second homes are available at a very reasonable price. These place are also emerging as good investment destinations.

Hi Varun, Came to know that since the builder has not paid the amount due to the concerned authorities, hence the delay in getting the occupancy certificate. Untill the builder pays the due amount we will not be getting the possession certificate.

Property rates jump to 30% in Nerul
Q: Hello, Did you come to know that property rates clocked to more than 30% returns in last 2 years.

My comments to replies
Hi Sanjana, Even I was surprised to know that property rates made a jump of about 30% in last 2 years in Nerul. This is possible only due to factors like capital appreciation, connectivity and livability. Came to know that Nerul has become a hot property destination both for buyers as well as builders.
Hi Rakshit, With many factors like well built social infrastructure, connectivity and a wide variety of options, the area has shown appreciating trends in the last few years. Property pundits have attributed this rise to the under-construction Navi Mumbai metro and the clearance for the proposed Navi Mumbai Airport, which is likely to further impact the property values of Nerul.

Hello Chandrashekar, Actually the name of the project has been changed from its existing name. Prior to it was called as Hex world. Now it has been renamed as Hex City. It is a 9 tower building with 32 floors located at Kharghar. The builder has given a timely deadline to handover the project by Dec 2017. It may get over even before the said date too.
Hmmm Ok. Thats why the delay in starting the project is it??? Since the Armstrong builders got separated from its sister concern, due to some legal issues, work was stopped for a brief period. Right now construction has begun in this project.

Q: Can anybody tell me when the occupancy certificate will be given??

My replies to this discussion
Hi Rakshit, Occupancy Certificate will be given once you take the possession of the flat. It has to be obtained from the builder who has to give the OC. Without having the occupancy certificate it not right to take the possession. Hence when you are going to occupy the property make sure that you obtain the OC.Hi Rakshit, Occupancy Certificate will be given once you take the possession of the flat.

can a building go for redevelopment without conveyance in mumbai?

My replies to this discussion
You are right Ravi, There are 3 options for getting conveyance through builder, through court cases or through deemed conveyance. As per the law, the builder or developer is supposed to provide conveyance for a CHS within 4 months of establishing the CHS. Therefore, one can safely say, 4 months after setting up a CHS, it is suppose to have a conveyance in place.You are right Ravi, There are 3 options for getting conveyance through builder, through court cases or through deemed conveyance.

can i get room for 1 month with basic facility in cheap rent

My comments to replies
Hi Hina, Warm Greetings for the day!!!!. Getting an accommodation for one month is quite difficult because generally rental agreement is done for period of 11 months. Hence no house owners or landlords will look for tenants for shorter period like 1 or 2 months period. You can inquire in any PG in case they are willing to provide for 1 month with basic facility.
Hello Rakshit, That too you are looking for cheap rent for an accommodation in Mumbai. Getting a cheap accommodation is a cumbersome task in city like Mumbai with basic facility. Still you can go ahead and try out if anything is available. All the best for house hunting!!!!!!!.

My comments to replies
Good day Rakshit, The residential project in Marol- Maroshi Road which I am referring to is stopped after some area is dug up inside the bus depot. There is no sign of construction activity for last 3years.
Hi, I think in this case you have to approach the builder and ask him why the delay in completing the project since its been pending for last 3 years. Ask him for the refund money that you have invested and if he does not oblige inform the builder that serious action will be taken against him.

EC approval asked by BMC to invite campa cola's illegal flats
Q: Hi, Have you heard that BMC asked permission from Chief Electrol Officer to demolish Campa Cola's illegal flats.

My comments to replies
Hi all, The residents of Worli's Campa Cola Compound believe that the Supreme Court's latest notice or watch have offered them a ray of hope. But legal experts are watchful in their opinion on whether this paves the way for regularization of the unauthorized floors of the compound's buildings.
Yep, i heard the news in TOI that Justices S J Mukhopadhaya and S A Bobde told the BMC's counsel that the court never told the residents to vacate and only said that the flats were unauthorized and also it had not specifically directed the BMC to demolish the illegal portions of the buildings. So, it is for the BMC to take action as per law, but no contempt of court is made out during action.
10th July 2014
@Rakshit, Advocate Jamshed Mistry believes that the Supreme Court has inherent powers and even after the February 2013 order, a solution that is within the parameters of law could be found. Nothing prevents the court from making a suggestion to explore if a way out can be found. Because of this Campa residents are holding on to this hope.

Hi Jigar, As per the urban development department, every builder having construction on one acre of land or above will have to reserve 20% of the flats of the new construction for the economically weaker section and low income groups. But the modification would be applicable to the cities with over 10 lakh population which include Mumbai, Pune, Thane, Navi Mumbai, Nashik and Nagpur.
@ Rakshit, But one thing which is area of this single built flat should be in range between 300-500 sq. ft. On the completion of the project these 20% flats should be handed over to Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) at the current market rate of the construction cost. The flats would be allotted by MHADA strictly on the basis of special lottery method.

Buyers interest in secondary homes
Q: Hey heard that Mumbai's secondary sales market will have to come down. Kindly discuss on this news and let me know.

My replies to this discussion
Hi, Registration data over the past three quarters reveals that an increasing number of Mumbai's home buyers and investors are moving towards new launches. Their objective is to capitalize on the significant price advantage that these projects offer. The lower pricing of new launches versus resale options – and the excellent response from buyers - is a clear signal to vigilant investors who have been scanning the Mumbai market for the right entry point.Hi, Registration data over the past three quarters reveals that an increasing number of Mumbai's home buyers and investors are moving towards new launches.

It seems to be a complete fraud by India Homes and Saaga Infra Projects. No one from Saaga office replies to any queries
Right..... A reputed builder will be a member of an industry association, such as the Confederation of Real Estate Developers Association of India (CREDAI), or the Builder's Association of India (BAI). These are self-regulatory bodies that have strict rules for builders and any deviation may lead to the company being blacklisted by the association.

Well in case if you are looking for the rent property in Mumbai , you really need to work hard for this. Searching the real estate property is not as easy as compared to other locations in India. There are various online and offline brokers who can help you to grab the safest and cozy Mumbai Rental Properties .
As far as my knowledge is concerned Mira Road in Mumbai will be the best locality for a rented property as the rent is cheaper than the Dahisar West and East. You can easily get a 1/2 BHK flats in a reputed society within 10000-18000/month with 50000 as a security deposit. Whereas the rental value in Dahisar West is between Rs. 14000-30000/month for a 1/2/3 BHK flats. Similarly, in Dahisar East 15000-30000/month for a 1/2/3 BHK flats.

Hi, Ekta overall seems to be a good name and fame in realty market. But Virar project is overpriced. I think builder is quoting 5300+ all including which is very high. You have lot of supply coming up in Virar and plenty of other good builders to choose from.
Hi Padma, From investment perspective, funda should be to buy cheap and sell high. I feel projects around 4200-4500/sq-ft can be considered for investment. Also consider total cost/outflow in calculations not just basic rate. They increase additional charges like Clubhouse, development charges etc. In big brands, add on charges are too high which will reduce your ROI. If u are able to get Ekta Parksville for 4200-4500/sq-ft, it's a great buy! Just checkout the total cost before buying. It should not be that by reducing basic rate.

How is the social and civic infrastructure in Ambernath locality? How is the connectivity and accessibility to the other parts of the city
Ambernath lies just beyond Ulhasnagar in Thane district, close to Ulhas River. It is also an industrial area, becoming home to several national and international companies. The locality has a good connectivity to Badlapur, an important railway junction in MMR through the Ambernath-Badlapur Road. Other localities that are easily accessible from the locality are Kalyan, Dombivli, Bhiwandi and Ulhasnagar. Some of the important roads in and around the locality are Pipeline Road, Kalyan-Badlapur Road, SH-76 and NH-222. However, most people rely on the rail route for traveling to the main city of Mumbai.

As per investment point of view any area in MMR near 5400-6000/sq-ft has potential to grow in the future.It depends upon the need and time horizon. If you want to stay immediately, it may not be profitable but if it is for investment point of view and you have longer time horizon, then it is surely a good bet.As per investment point of view any area in MMR near 5400-6000/sq-ft has potential to grow in the future.It depends upon the need and time horizon.

Did they make any commitment regarding return of booking amount.

Guys i'm forming a group to fight against Lodha Builders.. I had booked a flat in CASA Rio and the project is delayed for more than 2 years.. I'm about to start a fight for my due compensation.. If you want to join in drop an email with your contact details on belsonkoshy at gmail dot com. Remember we can create a huge impact if our number is large..
Right Washim, Technically speaking, the time consumed in obtaining all approvals adds to the total time expended in completing the project. Any approval which is needed between the launch to the actual start of construction up till handover of the apartments to the buyer will be an additional time factor. Delays here will cause cascading delays in delivering the project as per the promised time.

How to find your flat is yours and not sold to some one else?
Q: I've booked flat from a reputed builder. Agreement is done. But on one occasion i was being given receipt for amount paid by someone else. As per builder it happened because of similarity in name.

Hi everybody, According to the proposed policy, all commercial establishments occupying more than 500 sq-ft and also those living as tenants in residential homes bigger than 862 sq-ft will not be protected under the Rent Control Act.
True Ramesk, And the tenants occupying more than 46.5 sq-mtr of commercial area and 80 sq-mtr residential area, shall be eligible to continue to occupy rented premises so long as he or she agrees to pay the market rent as per principles contained in the ready reckoner rate manual. The landlord will not be allowed to dislodge the tenant so long as the tenant pays the market rent.

I think the new rates are good for them......Kab Tak Bina Mehnat Ki Khaoge......I have been for Delhi For 13 Years and saw that not a single member of the family of my landlord is doing any work they all depends on the rent. They don't provide education to their children because they have a huge land banks. I can give you the lakhs of such example. They increase the rent 20% annually. I rented a room in 2002 in Rs.1000/month and it has reached Rs. 3850/month in the year 2013.

Right Shalini, Earlier in 1990, nearly 600 acres of mill land was placed for real estate development. As we all know that land has been one of the biggest difficulties for Maharashtra, India's most urbanized state, which is having difficulties to find ways to provide affordable housing and improve the quality of life for its city inhabitants.
24th May 2015
@Shalini, There are other difficulties as well. We are not sure that how much land can be actually used as a large part of Mumbai port land is covered by coastal regulatory zone, so we don't know whether they will get permission from environment ministry or not.
24th May 2015

It is matter of government and as the Mumbai port's luck washed out, its land came under the highlight. There were many plans hanging around for real estate development. This consists of rented accommodation and affordable housing. Thanks to the state govt. for this efforts. We can hope for the best.
Well Arushisha, Opening up large portions of land in Mumbai also has political effects and Mr. Gadkari is aware of that. He has said at many public forums that not a single inch of the 1000 acres of land will be given to private builders and it will be used to build roads, railway corridors and public parks.
24th May 2015
@Arushisha, Government should first make public what affordable housing means in terms of size, price and location. Then only we can say government seems to have the right purposet because The first need of any person who steps to Mumbai or any other metro from villages and small towns is a rented accommodation.

Is Andheri East is a good destination for property rent and purchase?
Q: Hi, How are the rentals and sales in Andheri East?

My comments to replies
Hello Sir, The property trends in Andheri East are a bit different from that of the western suburbs. The eastern zone serves more towards the middle class and the upper middle class which works in the nearby companies, and the western zone caters more to the rich class and high class individuals. This is mainly pushed by the kind of amenities and the property prices. While the property prices in Andheri West is about Rs 21000-30000/sq-ft., the property prices in Andheri East are about Rs 14000-18500/sq-ft.
Hey Dev, However, with the latest development in infrastructure and connectivity attracting people from all section, leading to high growth in demand for property sales and rentals. Areas such as Chandivali, Marol, JB Nagar, Sakinaka and few others localities have developed well over time.

This is because of the existence of an excellent infrastructure, good environment, commercial establishments, IT companies and electronics industries, all which have created demand among the rich class of people. Therefore, the residential real estate here has been more expensive than other eastern suburbs till recent times.

Cabinet approved for amendments to Real Estate Bill
Q: Good news for property buyers! The Union Cabinet has approved the Real Estate Development and Regulation Bill along with certain key amendments.

My replies to this discussion
Hi Lalit, A probable answer lies in the fact that if the government had controlled that the money raised for a project should used to build that project, it would have closed an easy way that the real estate companies have of raising money. This would have eventually directed to real estate prices coming down. And any failure in real estate prices would have hurt people in politics who run this country, given that their ill-gotten money is put in real estate.Hi Lalit, A probable answer lies in the fact that if the government had controlled that the money raised for a project should used to build that project, it would have closed an easy way that the real estate companies have of raising money.

Hi everybody, Good news for owners of Hiranandani Gardens..... In a relief to residents of Hiranandani Gardens in Mumbai, the Supreme Court on yesterday dismissed a special leave petition filed by real estate czar Niranjan Hiranandani's company challenging a Bombay high court order that stopped him a few months ago from constructing small homes around their plush towers in Powai. The Supreme Court requested the HC to now soon decide a suit filed by these residents who are seeking conveyance of the land from the developer.
Right Rubiya, The developers had signed a tripartite agreement with the MMRDA and state to develop 230 acres in Powai for construction of MIG homes of 40 and 80 sq.mt. Residents' main opposition is that no additional buildings can come up on Sector IV-A of Powai Area Development Scheme. They do not want smaller homes in their "backyards".

Hello Friends, It is really a good news as it will increasing the standards of living by giving proper homes and subsidised interest rates to EWS and LIG groups will not only aid in fulfilment of their social needs but also help everybody associated with the real estate sector. We are happy with this decision and welcome it wholeheartedly.
@Vatsa, According to me, this move has to be regarded as a milestone for the housing sector as every stakeholder of the industry is sure to get benefited. Currently, taking 10.50% as an average interest rate on housing loan, EMI on admissible loan value of Rs. 6 lakh for a15 year loan duration comes out to be Rs. 6632 for each month. Now with the cabinet approving on the credit linked subsidy to 6.50%, the monthly EMIs come down to Rs. 4050 thereby, offering a saving of Rs. 2582/month.

Q: Hello All, Can anyone update the development update on Dosti Planet North, Shilphata and potential growth prospects of the area.

My comments to replies
I can infer that the area may have good potential to develop. But i am wondering the time frame. How much time it will take to witness some decent development. 7-10 years can be a long duration in terms of growth. Unless the area develops rapidly, livability will be difficult.
Hi Rahul, The biggest disincentive for Shilphata's real estate development is the current lack of civic amenities and social infrastructure. Yet, this has not stopped developers from coming into this area. There are already several projects available by developers such as Gajra Group, Marathon, Lodha Group and Runwal Group. The most common apartment configurations in the area are 1 and 2BHK apartments. Most of these apartments are sought after by employees in the nearby industrial zones

Q: How is Haware Nakshtra compare to VBHC in Palghar

My comments to replies
Nakshatra is a housing community that has been developed by the Nakshatra Group in Palghar (W) Mumbai. The locality seems to me is better the locality of VBHC. As Western part is more developed than the eastern parts. Road and Rail connectivity is also good compare to the eastern parts. In eastern parts lot's of illegal construction is going on. So, be careful and ask all the required documents before investing in VBHC.
Right Rakshit, As far as developer is concerned, Both the developers are reputed as well as successfully completed their projects on time. Haware Engineers & Builders Private Limited was established in 1994 and having 21 yrs. of vast experiencing. The company has successfully delivered 14 projects in and around Mumbai. Whereas, VBHC Value Homes Pvt Ltd. has more than 5 completed projects across the nation. So, i would say both the developers are good in terms of transparency and timely delivery. But one thing i would like to say that the VBHC projects has all the necessary documents whereas no information found for the same from the Havare Nakshatra.

Hello my dear friend!!!! People of Gujarat are not innocent to have 3 times continuously elected the same chief minister. Gujarat is on top now. Even the World Bank has also recognised it. It is better to find out others weakness than to improve your performance. Other states should also improve their performance and prepare for the next round of assessment. Govt. want every state to be progressive. Uttar Pradesh and Bihar should also participate in this race and there is no point in criticising Prime Minister Modi and Gujarat.
It is time to highlighting the need for "easing out" the long list of clearances for doing business, the country needs all round development and for this we need early clearances and comfory of doing business.

Road Ministry will soon open a compensation policy for private players investing in the roads sector.
Q: Will this policy help builders the comfort to invest in road project?

My comments to replies
This move will definitely boost the investor confidence in the sector. Many companies have stayed away from making more investment due to delay in clearance of projects.
It is heard that under the Narendra Modi-led government, 283 closed projects worth Rs 3.8 lakh crore have already been rolled out. Majority of the projects were stopped on account of forest clearances and regulatory problem. Thanks to our PM, Narendra Modi who is really doing a tremendous job for the country's development.

I would like to know how do you ensure distribution of plots? Do you layouts available. Can plot be regester to buyer?
Q: I have a concern regarding managing distribution of plots. Does the builder show layout plan to show to purchaser to ensure that same plot is not saled to more than one individual. How about registration? Are they regestering the plot in the name of purchaser?

Hi Rajesh, When buying a property, legal due diligence is necessary to avoid getting difficulties in legal issues later. Here are some of the precautions you can take before finalizing a property deal. 1) Check the antecedents of the vendor (s). We all verify title deeds and all connected documents before buying the property. But we fail to verify the antecedents of the vendor(s). 2) Check the title of the property:- The title of the property forms the foundation of any contract. According to the Indian Contract Act, no seller can pass on to the purchaser a better title than what he already possesses. 3) Verify the title of the seller:- The vendor may have acquired his title either by purchase, by inheritance, by partition, by gift, by settlement or by grant. 4) Personal inspection of property under sale (site/building/flat/agricultural land):- You must take all reasonable steps to ensure that he is purchasing the property from a right person and also a right property. 5) Sale by holder of power of attorney:- If the sale documents are being executed by a person holding power of attorney on behalf of the owner, the said power of attorney should be scrutinized thoroughly. 6) Check the original documents-Always inspect the original documents of the seller and read all the documents carefully before signing them.
I think Pranab Is right. Purchasing a property/land requires utmost care. One has to examine and find out the title of the seller or nature of his right. A seller can sell only what he possesses. Therefore if a seller has proper and valid title, on purchase you will get valid title. If the seller's title is defective, you will get only defective title.

Fit-out possession of flat in Avenue I, Global City, Virar - Should we accept it?
Q: Hello All...We have a flat in Avenue I, global City virar. This month we are being offered 'fit-out possession' in lieu of final payment. My question is how it can be different from actual possession? Should we accept it? Do we have an option to reject it and wait? Thanks.

My comments to replies
Thanks Rakshit and Rajesh...but then are we legally in a position to hold last payment and reject their offer till they give final possession?
Yes, and when they pressurized by home buyers, offer possession just for fitouts in under-construction towers which could pose a serious risk to residents because of construction activity and lack of safety measures. Also, the moment builder offers these pre-mature letter of fitout , penalty meters stops and maintenance meter starts.

Lodha Builder charging for NOC for reselling - Lodha Palava Mumbai
Q: Hi, I have resold a flat in Lodha Palava ,Mumbai of which I have possession. There is no OC and no society has been formed. Lodha has asked for NOC charges in cash and not in cheque. They said that even bank like ICICI, HDFC etc. can not give loan. Is it true? Is this NOC and these charges valid. And does buyer and seller has to bear 50:50? I am salaried.

My replies to this discussion
Hi Anuj, The builders threaten that upon non-payment of transfer charges, the buyer would not be able to sell off the flat. This is a punishable offense under Section 384 and 385 of Indian Penal Code (IPC). The undue influence exerted by the builder is prohibited by Competition Act, 2007. Imposition of unlawful transfer fees by builders is deemed "abuse of dominant position" as defined under section 4 of the Act.Hi Anuj, The builders threaten that upon non-payment of transfer charges, the buyer would not be able to sell off the flat.

Is there need to enter in sale deed?
Q: Hi, I have registered Agreement of Sale which bank has accepted for loan disbursement. Is there a need to enter in sale deed also.

My replies to this discussion
Hi, Sale Deed is also known as conveyance deed. This is a document through which the seller transfers his right, title and interest in a property to the purchaser, who, in turn, acquires and holds the same as an absolute owner. Even though it is neither necessary nor mandatory to enter into a sale agreement before entering into a sale transaction, it is advisable to enter into a sale agreement wherein the terms and conditions of sale could be minutely stipulated.Hi, Sale Deed is also known as conveyance deed.

Partial relief for developer in affordable housing dispute
Q: A bench of Justice passed the orders on two applications made this August by the Hiranandani group companies for permission to register the agreements under the Maharashtra Ownership of Flats Act and sell unsold houses.

My comments to replies
In its judgement, Bombay High Court allowed the Hiranandani to sell 207 large unsold flats built before 2008 and register deals for 22 homes already sold in Powai. However, it did not allow the developer to reduce by 880, the 3000 small 40 sq-m and 80 sq-m flats that the court had in 2012 directed him to construct for middle-income groups.
In the beginning of the case in December 2008, while hearing a PIL filed against the Hiranandani project in Powai for violations to a tripartite agreement, the HC had allowed construction of flats to go on, but barred him from selling amalgamated flats.

Hi, No Stamp Duty required for registration of Gift Deed between blood relatives as per the Maharashtra Government's announcement and applicable since 24th April, 2015.
Yes, it is right. In april, Maharashtra Government had decided to waive stamp duty on transfer of immovable property by the owner to an heir or a family member. The decision was announced by Revenue Minister Eknath Khadse in the Legislative Assembly and all such transaction have to be compulsorily registered with the government.

Earlier it was 2% on the property's market value (ready reckoner rate) was payable in cases where the property was being gifted to a family member, under the Maharashtra Stamp Act. In cases where the transfer of property doesn't qualify as ancestral property, the stamp duty payable was 5%.

Apart from the above mentioned points, you should verify all the approvals such as bank approval, fire dept. NOC, IOD, Commencement Certificate, height approval (if it is a high rise), tax receipt from local body etc. Verify all the legal approvals by a legal expert. Ask the neighbor about locality, see the basic amenities such as banks, schools, colleges, hospitals, markets, malls and ATMs from the site, connectivity and transport etc.

mother wants to gift her property in balkum thane to her son by registered gift deed.. is there lbt of 1%to be paid? or

My comments to replies
Hi, Check the Title of the flat is clear or not. You don't need to pay Service Tax and VAT. Builders charge because it is thier regular course of business of building and selling so they charge Taxes. (but not of that Lady) Registration charges should be paid by you. After Registration is over. check the doucments online on Registration website showing details of Flat and Sale Deed Number. Is in your name and details of the flat are updated on the website. (Encumbrance Certificate EC is record of registered documents over a property check on website of Registration and Stamps Department).
I think Rakshit is right. You need not pay VAT & Service Tax as the same is applicable only when you purchase flat from the builder. But in your case, mother is gifting property to her son.

Maharashtra Govt. cut in number of approvals needed for realty sector

The government will have to make suitable changes if affordable housing is to become a reality. Why not there should be a single-window clearance system, with all approvals within 15 days? Still there are some departments where there had been no visible change in the time required for many clearances. As a result, realty players have to pay high premium charges, government and civic body fees. This leads to high property rates.

Hi all, That was the reason for inactive activities and lowered prices in the realty sector. On account of unaffordable prices coupled with high interest rates and low rental yields, people continued to avoid real estate as an investment in 2015.
Yes, and if we take the advice of market experts, there has been key policy related progress in the real estate sector like the Cabinet approval of the Real Estate Bill and systematization of tax structure for REIT listings in 2015. Hope, these steps should bring back transparency in the sector, as well as consumer and investor confidence in the long run.
7th January 2016

I agree with Bikram! While the real estate market looks to bounce back in 2016, a person looking to invest in the market definitely needs to be careful. It is important to choose a company that has a strong track record in the real estate market with strong financials and delivery of promises. Companies like Mahindra Lifespaces, Indiabulls, Lodha etc have been around for a while and have earned their reputation in the real estate market. The Vivante project by Mahindra Lifespaces is expected to be one upcoming projects to look out for. With its strong track record and exciting designs and amenities it definitely seems like a good option to consider.
Yes, and according to me regulatory bill will boost confidence among the prospective buyers. We may also see some consolidation between unorganized and organized players in the industry. Relaxation of FDI and ECB norms should boost real estate investment during 2016 since it provides exit routes. Affordable housing will still play a major role with sustainable demand from this space.

Right Rajesh, This Union Budget should make tax provisions for a home buyer from the time he starts paying interest on housing loans. Instead of allowing home buyers tax benefits post-possession, the Union Budget should make a provision that allows these from the time they start paying interest on housing loans. This will comfort their monetary burden very much and make increase the velocity of home loan expense.

I want to know about REIT
Q: I am a student of Insurance Management. I am working on a project on Property Insurance with specific focus on Risk Management of Civil construction projects.I want know about REIT. In an article I recently read there was something about banks playing a major role in REIT.The article read " It is also expected that the banks in India can be a major contributor of assets in REITs. These banks own vast commercial real estate for their offices and branches. These assets can be revalued and swapped into a REIT and the asset can be leased to the banks. This would enable the money raised to flow back to the bank for shoring up their balance sheets, and at the same time be a very stable asset for the investors." The article also mentioned about Budget 2016 exempting REIT from dividend distribution tax.I want to know how it will benefit the Real Estate sector.

But at the same time, it is also come to hear that people who have invested there have not been given papers and allotted plots. And in future if government refused to give permission saying that it will affect the mangroves trees then money is gone.But at the same time, it is also come to hear that people who have invested there have not been given papers and allotted plots.

My replies to this discussion
HI Kabir, It will be better for you, if you call your local authority to give you an idea of the typical soil type in the area you are building, and the sort of foundation that is appropriate. Usefully, most local authorities produce a fact sheet on typical foundation solutions for different soil types commonly found in the area.HI Kabir, It will be better for you, if you call your local authority to give you an idea of the typical soil type in the area you are building, and the sort of foundation that is appropriate.

PLEASE TELL THE STATUS OF POONAM DEVELOPERS

My comments to replies
Hi Chetna, You can easily find the past track record of any developers. You just have to Google with the developer or its project name and you will get many positive and negative reviews on it. Even i used the same trick and didn't find a single negative reviews about this developer. But still you have to search that how many project this developer has successfully delivered on time? How many projects are under construction and how many still to come? What is company's financial condition. These all tricks play a major role in searching a good developer.,
I agree with you Shrikant......Now-a-days, buyers are very active and if there is any project related issues, they instantly write a reviews on it. Even, they visit the project site and share all the useful information like, connectivity, civic issues if any, location advantages, construction material used in the project, construction status, conversation with builder, possession date etc. so that rest of the buyers can get the latest info on it.

No, they can't. And specially, if there is no such clause for it. Check your agreement first. Is there any such charges mentioned on it?

Hi Vinayak, To be honest, builder has no reputation and almost all their project are delayed by 3-5 years. The construction work may go on and on and on...I would suggest against such developers. If someone looking to buy in Mira road then Poonam Garden area would be a great choice. It seems to me that lots of people have invested there tempted by low price and good marketing strategy.Hi Vinayak, To be honest, builder has no reputation and almost all their project are delayed by 3-5 years.

My replies to this discussion
Yes, an amendment being made in the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code 1966 (MLRC), which states that certification of non-agriculture land will not be required for a land for which development plan for the area is approved. An ordinance was issued in this regard to delete sections 42 B and 44 C of the MLRC which require a landowner to obtain permissions from the collector to convert and carry out a non-agriculture assessment of his land.Yes, an amendment being made in the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code 1966 (MLRC), which states that certification of non-agriculture land will not be required for a land for which development plan for the area is approved.

Hi Nuzahat, Neral has seen lots of development in the last 2-3 years. This locality is becoming the hot bed for affordable housing in the Central Suburb side.

Apart from that, the New Panvel Matheran Neral Bhimashankar State Highway which is under construction, once completed will prove to be a major plus point for this area. It will reduce the travel time from Panvel. Presently, it takes around 45 kms to cover 20 kms distance, saving upto 45 minutes of travel time. Also I have read somewhere that proposed Panvel to Karjat single track which is now used only for cargo, two line railway will also benefit this area. Overall, locality looks good for end users as well as for investors.Apart from that, the New Panvel Matheran Neral Bhimashankar State Highway which is under construction, once completed will prove to be a major plus point for this area.

What is Revised proposed date of project completion as per rera act? The date of completion is different in agreement

My comments to replies
Hello Akshata, Which project and developer are you talking about? Please, furnish the project name and locality so that i can provide you the completion date. Thanks
Hi, The agreement of sale will have to specifically carry the date of possession and the rate of interest in the case of any default. Remember, the time period could differ amongst builders. For new projects, the committed date of delivery is the choice of the developer and so the customers will need to take a decision if they find that the committed date of delivery is too distant they can opt to not purchase the apartment. If your project is register under RERA act then your builder has to pay penalty on it from the date of possession date mentioned in the agreement.

Know How To Negotiate Property Purchase?
Q: Buying a real estate property is a pretty expensive transaction and thus it is important to make the right decision. Several factors determine the price of the property like the demand it has in the location and the nature of the defect it has. The price of the property is increasing steadily and thus it is important to determine the present value of the piece. To lock down the best deal, you can follow certain tips and negotiate over the price better. Before making any purchase, you need to know about the builder from the reviews and the feedbacks. If there is any Cheating Case Against Builder filed in the past, you must refrain from choosing that builder.
