I’m thinking about buying a second home near the Kochi Infopark. Will it be a good decision?
My replies to this discussion
Try out the Kochi Infocity Vintage apartments. These are right by the Infocity and are still pretty new, as they came in the market in 2013. You can check out the available apartments in the Infocity Vintage from the Commonfloor website, just follow the link http://www.commonfloor.com/infocity-vintage-kochi/povp-oielhc.
It will be a good investment. Not only IT professionals, but many young families also want to settle in this area, as it is a very commercially happening place. I’d suggest buying an apartment that targets the younger crowd as the older generations might not want to live in such a busy part of the city.

Q:
How is the water situation in Fort Kochi?
My replies to this discussion
If you are buying a house in the Fort Kochi area, you should be aware that there is a major water crisis. Many residents have been complaining and the Kerala Water Authority is delaying the release of water every day by giving some excuse or the other. Sometimes they say that they are repairing a pump house, and give excuses about problems of the interconnection at KarnakodamIf you are buying a house in the Fort Kochi area, you should be aware that there is a major water crisis.

Q:
How do I get a new water and electricity connection in Kochi?
My replies to this discussion
Getting water and electricity connection in Kochi is pretty simple. You have to apply for a connection at the respective agencies, and the assistant engineer will come to your property for an inspection. Once you pay the fees it will take 30-45 days for you to get the connection. Although there was a water shortage earlier in Kochi, the Kerala Water Authority has solved the problem. They are now supplying 20 million litres per day.
For more details about your electricity connection, payment options, and your tariff, you can access the Kerala State Electricity Board's website http://www.kseb.in/.

Q:
Have the authorities cleared up the garbage in Tripunithura?
My replies to this discussion
No, they still haven't cleared the garbage at Tripunithura. The residents have approached the authorities many times to get rid of the garbage, but they still haven't done it. There is a lot of stench in the air in the entire area, and residents have also started dumping and burning the garbage. Because of this, the air in Tripunithura is also very smoggy and causing health problems for residents.No, they still haven't cleared the garbage at Tripunithura.

Q:
Hey I am interested in Tata Tritvam apartments in Kochi, can someone give me some good information on it? I’m thinking of buying a 4BHK, I will have to take out a sizeable loan out, but I think it would be worth it. What’s the word on it?
My replies to this discussion
Hey that’s pretty accurate with the pricing, here is something interesting - the price per square foot differs when it comes to the 3BHK apartments, maybe it has something to do with the sea view or interiors, or possibly which floor the apartment is on. One of the things about this township that stands out is their intense electronic and personal security system. It has all the other amenities that you would expect from luxury flats of this price, like swimming pool, health facilities, power backup, sporting gymnasiums and a regular fitness gym, yoga classes, intercom, etc.Hey that’s pretty accurate with the pricing, here is something interesting - the price per square foot differs when it comes to the 3BHK apartments, maybe it has something to do with the sea view or interiors, or possibly which floor the apartment is on.

yeah you get to use all the facilities even if you get a 2bhk. SRK Skywing also has good security systems and anti-fire systems, like fire exits, alarm systems, sprinklers, fire hose, extinguishers, and even a helipad for emergencies. Addition facilities like bowling and golf gives this apartment building the edge, I read something about them offering Naturopathy treatment too, this is a type of alternative medicine. I find it interesting, so that could be a bonus if you are interesting in natural medicines too.

Q:
I heard that the builders in Kochi are slowly turning into the eco-friendly way. How far is this true? Can you tell me the details about it?
My replies to this discussion
According to the industry sources, Kochi is said to be one of the best places to start eco-friendly projects as it is the home of many real estate projects, and I am glad they’re rightly doing so. With about a total of 700 projects with a total area of 774 lakh square feet, Kochi’s real estate sector stretches from Aluva to West Kochi. There are about 2 lakh people staying in flats. The major density is concentrated in the areas of Kakkanad, Aluva, Tripunithura, and Edapally. CREDAI Kochi, as a part of social initiative, is planning to set-up bio-medical and e-waste processing facilities.According to the industry sources, Kochi is said to be one of the best places to start eco-friendly projects as it is the home of many real estate projects, and I am glad they’re rightly doing so.

Q:
Hello, I would like to know about the rental rates for a 3 BHK in Edapally. I will be moving there with my parents soon, so I would prefer a larger space. Can anyone offer any suggestions?
My replies to this discussion
Yeah I would say the same about Edapally, and the other thing is, you have to also look at the rental price per square feet. Obviously the rent rates are on the rise, and currently the average rent price per square feet is around 11 Rs. It should be around 10-12 Rs. per square feet, but that is just for the apartments. If you are looking at residential houses, then the rental prices are even more. For a good residential house, the rent should be around 14 to 16 Rs. per square feet.Yeah I would say the same about Edapally, and the other thing is, you have to also look at the rental price per square feet.

Q:
Hey I asked my friends what would be a nice place to rent an apartment for my son in Kochi that also fits a mid range budget because he will be going to college there. They said that Palarivattom is a good place. Can I get any opinions on that? And what is the rent like?
My replies to this discussion
Have you considered asking your son’s preference? If he is okay with it, then yes, Palarivattom is a nice place. If you are looking for a place for just your son, then you don’t need a big one. I think a small 2BHK can be manageable. Talking about rent, yes, it is reasonable. My friend was telling me of an 800 sq. ft. 2BHK there, and the rent was 10,000 rupees. But you should also be able to find a 1BHK for less. Anyways, it is the rent per sq. ft. that is important. Here, the rent is around 8 to 12 Rs. per sq. ft. So a 1BHK of say 600 sq. ft. should cost you around 4,800 to 7,200 Rupees.Have you considered asking your son’s preference? If he is okay with it, then yes, Palarivattom is a nice place.

I heard that water scarcity in Kakkanad was very bad last year. Have these civic issues been dealt with or is this still a problem Kochi is facing?
My replies to this discussion
So apparently the pipes at Kakkanad were really old and badly needed to be replaced for a while now. Wonder why KWA hadn't thought of it until the problem took a toll on all the residents. But ofcourse, they were low on funds and there was a lot of delay with the work. The residents had to pay so much to water suppliers just so that they could get drinking water. Atleast some for of compensation should be made by the civic authrotities to the residents. Especially the ones living at Sunflower who were living for a week or longer without water supply from May 1. Obviously now the problem has been fixed, I just don't know how reliable the water supply is there after these episodes.So apparently the pipes at Kakkanad were really old and badly needed to be replaced for a while now.

Q:
What is the reason for the sudden increase in real estate prices in Marine Drive, Kochi? Does the area have potential?
My replies to this discussion
Hey I think this topic is something to really debate about. See I've lived in Bombay also for a while, and even though Marine Drive in Kochi is considered the most influential and expensive prime locality, it is still very cheap when you compare it to other cities like Bombay and Delhi. The basic problem that Marine Drive is facing is that there is less space for development because of bad administrative decisions. But at the same time, face lifting projects like Tunnel Drive and Kochi Fast Ferry Service are already ongoing projects! So the question on everybdy's mind should be how much is it really going to amount to? Should the appreciation rates be compared to Mumbai's Malabar Hills? Or will it fetch only normal returns? Hmm..Hey I think this topic is something to really debate about.

Q:
I heard that lack of water supply is a recurring problem in Edapally, Kochi. Have there been any developmental changes? Any other major civic issues in this locality?
My replies to this discussion
Yes agreed! Last year Edapally faced some major civic issues. There was even a mosquito menace because of illegal hoardings and flex boards that were dumped all over the locality. This accumulation of debris attracted hundreds of mosquitos till the place became a breeding ground for them. Such disgusting unhygienic conditions. Finally, after the residents fought to remove these hoardings, Kochi Corporation understood the importance of a disposal plant and all these hoardings were further dumped at Brahmapuram waste treatment plant. But still property value is good in Edapally!Yes agreed! Last year Edapally faced some major civic issues.

Q:
I read online that Aroor had problems last year with their water supply? How has it affected the real estate in the area?
My replies to this discussion
Water pipes keep bursting in Kochi and now this is a common menace that we have to deal with it. The materials used for the pipes are of inferior cheaper quality and what is required for a water pipe is definitely not asbestos - cement material but should be iron clad! But the price for one metre asbestos is only 2000 to 3000 bucks and for the iron material it is easily 15,000! Insufficient funds as usual for this replacement to take place. Till then as already said, we can only hope we won't face more water issues in the city.Water pipes keep bursting in Kochi and now this is a common menace that we have to deal with it.

Q:
I've been reading a lot of articles that say that Perumbavoor has many civic issues. Is Perumbavoor an unsafe locality? And how developed is the locality?
My replies to this discussion
Hey I just recently read something about Perumbavoor! Since Kochi is turning into a major commercial hub, Perumbavoor is one of the places that has a lot of tourism potential. The project worth 1 lakh is already underway in Iringole Kavu at Vallam. There are many other places that are tourist hot spots. The Naganchery Mana is situated near the Iringole kavu which is a sacred grove spread over 40 acres of land. This is another beautiful spot here. So the place will eventually have great real estate value and potential despite some minor civic issues :)Hey I just recently read something about Perumbavoor!

Q:
Hey anything new happening in the Vytilla metro station? I heard about a new girder. I want to know because I’ll be buying property there pretty soon. I wanna know if it will affect my investment in any way.
My replies to this discussion
Yes you have heard correctly. This is a kind of a defining moment for the Kochi metro works, because this happens to be the first concrete girder of the Kochi metro. The girder is U shaped, and 25m long and 5m wide. Ive also heard that it weighs about 150 ton. Yeah, that’s a huge development in my opinion. This actually proves that the Kochi metro is progressing and will soon be operational. I think this has made investors sit up and take notice. If I were you I would invest pretty soon here, because with each such new developments in the metro constructions, prices are likely to go up.Yes you have heard correctly.

Q:
Hey is there some kind of traffic diversion going on at the NH47 because of the metro rail work? I’m starting my new job in two days, and I have to take the NH47 to get to work. Can anybody help out a bit?
My replies to this discussion
Ok, so I can share whatever I know about this issue, and then you can make the correct decision accordingly. So this blockage is basically because of the metro rail construction work, as you must already know. The authorities are a bit worried that because of all these big trailers and cranes, there might be a bit of a traffic blockage so they have decided to keep that stretch closed to general public. Actually, even small vehicles will be able to pass through. Its just the big trucks which transport smaller vehicles that are not going to be able to pass through this stretch. However it wont affect any traffic that is taking the Aluva-Kalamassery route, towards Ernakulum.Ok, so I can share whatever I know about this issue, and then you can make the correct decision accordingly.

Q:
Hey I'm moving to Thrikkakkara next month and was wondering what is being done about the waste problem in this area? Is there a project being undertaken by the Thrikkakkara municipality to clean up this locality?
My replies to this discussion
Yeah and the chairman of Thrikkakara municipality has also stated that they've already bought 40,000 waste bins, 2 trucks and 15 pick up autorickshaws under the Jawaharlal Nehru Urban Renewal Mission scheme. he's pretty confident about the fact that once this project is underway, garbade disposal problems would be a thing of the past. The total cost of this project is 1 crore. The municipality already has 40 workers for waste disposal but the corporation didn't have enough vehicles for garbade transport. They've decided to start off work with the resources they have now, and increase the number of labourers as and when required. Bio waste will be treated at Brahmapuram waste treatment pland the plastic waste is to be shredded by the unit created by the municipality themselves.

Q:
I've been reading in the news that Kaloor faces many drainage problems and even infrastructural projects get disrupted because of it. Have the civic authorities done anything to fix the civic issues of the locality?
My replies to this discussion
Yes the entire worksite was flooded because of this and no works could be taken up for 1 or 2 days. The Metro work really cannot afford to get delayed any further because this is happening all over Kochi. So many problems are being raised because of this project and it's high time everyone cooperated together so that Kochi will get the development that it deserves. Water had to be pumped out with large pipes and then only could the work resume. Better planning and enforcement of civic facilities will help avoid such situations in the future!Yes the entire worksite was flooded because of this and no works could be taken up for 1 or 2 days.

Q:
I need to commute everyday from Vennala to Kalamassery but I've heard about the pitiful road condition in the area. What have the municipal authorities done about the civic issues in Vennala?
My replies to this discussion
Even though Vennala is only 7 km from the main city, the locality which is right under the municipal's nose, doesn't get any attention in terms of infrastructure development. The road isn't even the only problem here, there is a complete lack of public transportation buses. KSRTC doesn't operate in this sector and only private buses do. Residents find it so difficult to commute to other parts of the city. KSRTC designed the bus service only from Ernakulam to Thripunithura to Ponekkara. That's why civic authorities are so lethargic in implementing new areas under this service. Something must be done about this.

Q:
I'll need to travel everyday in Vytilla as my work is elsewhere. Apparently the roads are not good and lot of traffic is there. Has the issue been addressed or still it is like that?
My replies to this discussion
I think the reason for this long delay is because the kochi metro rail project is coming in the way of this road widening project. The project had to be completed in order for metro rail work to start but ofcourse that didn't happen. But this plan of extending the Petta Vytilla road is a great idea because I hear they're also going to improve underground drainage and provide parking lots wherever possible.

Q:
I thought that the thevara road was badly in need of a road widening project but now that it might be shelved, won't the real estate potential of the locality also come down?
My replies to this discussion
This project really would have done wonders for the traffic problems experienced in this locality. But GCDA has kept the work aside for some reason. Go figure! The project was supposed to connect Panampilly Nagar and the Kundanoor-Willington Island road at Thevara linking an underpass near Kasturba Nagar. Motorists were going to have a new route especially the ones coming from Kadavanthra and Vyttila areas to Kundanoor and west Kochi so that they don't have to enter the busy stretches such as the south railway overbridge and MG Road. I think this project should be made a reality.This project really would have done wonders for the traffic problems experienced in this locality. But GCDA has kept the work aside for some reason.

Q:
I heard that the Kerela Roads and Bridges Corporation are planning on a Palarivattom road widening project? Will this help ease traffic in this area? Anyone who know please tell me because I am moving there soon. Thanks!
My replies to this discussion
Actually the Motor vehicles department officials changed their mind about the bus being diverted and other vehicles are going to be diverted instead. reason is because they want priority to be given to public transport, which is completely understandable as I used to travel by bus 24/7 at some point and hated it when it had to travel down narrow roads. The corporation and MVD are also seriously thinking about road widening works and I think the project has already been commissioned. I know that NHAI is to design the flyover construction at Edapally, Vytilla and Palarivattom. This is going to indirectly affect the residents so that's why NHAI had to check with the corporation before they can start constructing the flyovers.Actually the Motor vehicles department officials changed their mind about the bus being diverted and other vehicles are going to be diverted instead. reason is because they want priority to be given to public transport, which is completely understandable as I used to travel by bus 24/7 at some point and hated it when it had to travel down narrow roads.

Q:
In terms of infrastructural development, can anyone tell me whether investing in Kochi would be a good idea?
My replies to this discussion
The thing you've got to know about the buyers of Kochi real estate is that most of them are young adults who are non locals. The infrastructure in Kochi is changing to meet the requirements of the younger population. Everywhere you go, you see mall spaces and new offices coming up. Micromarkets seem to be emerging everywhere. property prices are quite good. 20 lakhs minimum for a nice 2 bhk and and sizes vary between 600 to 1300 sq. feet. The 210 crore UL Cyber Park is another project that is going to sell commercial spaces to companies and employment opportunities are going to rise even more. Kochi has a lot of promise for good returns.The thing you've got to know about the buyers of Kochi real estate is that most of them are young adults who are non locals.

Q:
Hello I am moving to Mattancherry and what to know the current update on the bridge toll fee. How come the GCDA decided to revoke the toll amount?
My replies to this discussion
Apparently this bridge has a lot of problems now though. I think GCDA has full control of the bridge although relugar maintenance works are not happening. This bridge has been there since 1940 and is a very old infrastructural facility that stands to this day. It's made of wood in the middle so that it can lift up allowing ships to pass through. It's a very useful bridge for Kochi. But the bridge is still not 100 years old so it's not considered to be a heritage monument. that doesn't mean that GCDA shouldn't solve the issue of the breaking down of the wood on the road.Apparently this bridge has a lot of problems now though.

Q:
I'm most probably relocating from Hyderabad to Kochi very soon but I recently read somewhere that Kochi's housing sector isn't doing too well? I have to invest here so I want to know if I'm going to get my money's worth. Any info would help. Thanks
My replies to this discussion
It depends on how you look at it really. See if you go by the number of project announcements, then you'd think that Kochi is doing really well real estate and infrastructure wise. But if you go by actual property registrations alone, then you'd be disappointed because there actually aren't many at all. As compared to 2 years ago, 2013 and 2014 have both witnessed property registration decline by at least 1% and it's expected to fall further in this quarter.It depends on how you look at it really.

Q:
I would like to get an overview of Vaduthala in Kochi city. Please give as many details as possible.
My replies to this discussion
With the government having laid out plans to widen the roads here, and with all the development that has been happening lately, Vaduthala is definitely an upcoming locality in the city. Main areas of the city such as MG Road, Chitoor, Palarivattom and Edapally are easily accessible from Vaduthala. Auto stands, bus/railway stations are means of public transport. Shopping stores, banks, ATMs, hospitals (Lourdes Hospital), schools (Chinmaya Vidyalaya, Don Bosco School etc), petrol stations are all situated in the locality. The international airport is just an hour drive away. If you are looking for a place to stay, Vaduthala has a number of villas, apartments and individual houses available for rent/sale.With the government having laid out plans to widen the roads here, and with all the development that has been happening lately, Vaduthala is definitely an upcoming locality in the city.

Hey. I want to buy an apartment for my parents on their retirement. Is Vaduthala a good area for senior citizens to live in?
My replies to this discussion
Straddled by Cochin backwaters on one side, Vaduthala is calm and quiet area in the city of Kochi. The place is well connected to main city areas like Edapally and MG Road, public transport (autos, buses, trains) is available all the time. There are already established residential apartments and villas in Vaduthala, you can buy one that fits your needs - the rates are not very high as compared to the booming land and house rates in the city. For your parents, staying here will be hassle free as there are hospitals, ATMs, grocery stores and worship places in the neighbourhood.Straddled by Cochin backwaters on one side, Vaduthala is calm and quiet area in the city of Kochi.

Q:
Hey. I'm a student and I'm moving to Kochi for completing my high school. My school being in Vaduthala (Chinmaya Vidyalaya), I want to know about the Vaduthala area. Please mention if you know about any pg accomodation or flats for rent. I will be staying alone.
My replies to this discussion
Chinmaya Vaduthala is one of the best schools in Kochi city, congrats on getting a seat there! About Vaduthala, well it is not a really happening place as far as the youth is concerned but then it is not hard to commute to different parts of the city from here as you have access to public transport like buses, autos and trains. You can hop on and go to city areas like MG Road, Edapally, Panampally Nagar etc for sum fun and frolic. There are flats available for rent (DD Silver Stone) but they are mostly 2 BHK/3 BHK. PG accomodations would be better for you, considering you will be living alone. You will find gents PG accomodation in Vaduthala itself, but for ladies PG, you will have to travel 2 - 4 km from Vaduthala. The rent for gents PG is lower (Rs. 1800 - 2000 per month) as compared to that of ladies PG (Rs. 2000 - 3500 per month). There are supermarkets, ATMs, banks, fuel stations and restaurants in Vaduthala area.Chinmaya Vaduthala is one of the best schools in Kochi city, congrats on getting a seat there!

The apartments are 3 bhk apartment types and are available on booking right now. The builders have put up around a hundred units for sale or even less than that.

Q:
Hey, i heard about the LNG terminal to fuel marine vessels in Kochi. Is this true? Thanks for answering guys!
My replies to this discussion
Here is some background info i came across; The vessel, KVITBJORN, was berthed at Petronet LNG terminal a few days ago during its maiden voyage from China to Europe. Since LNG bunkering was being carried out for the first time by Petronet, some technical modifications were quickly carried out at the jetty and loading systemsHere is some background info i came across; The vessel, KVITBJORN, was berthed at Petronet LNG terminal a few days ago during its maiden voyage from China to Europe. Since LNG bunkering was being carried out for the first time by Petronet, some technical modifications were quickly carried out at the jetty and loading systems
There are about 100 LNG-powered ships and 400-odd carriers worldwide running either fully or partly on LNG as a fuel. Reduced cost of LNG, compared to other fuels, and higher energy utilisation of the fuel help vessels save operating costs as well. So this will be really nice.There are about 100 LNG-powered ships and 400-odd carriers worldwide running either fully or partly on LNG as a fuel.
