Q:
How much will it cost to buy an apartment in Kakkanad?
My replies to this discussion
The maximum is around Rs. 4500/ sq. ft. for apartments in prime locations in Kakkanad. So for an average 3BHK apartment of 1500 square feet area in this locality, the maximum amount that you have to pay will be around Rs. 68 Lakhs.
You can always negotiate with the seller on the square foot price and convince him to reduce it.

Q:
Hey I have been hearing a lot of good stuff about the Jains Tufnell Park in Kochi, is it really 42 lacs for a 2BHK? And it comes with sporting facilities? I have two young kids so I would like to give them some good and healthy past time in the evenings. How luxurious is this place? How is the apartments overall? Give me some details. Thanks
My replies to this discussion
yeah it is 42 lacs onwards, it is already available to move in, so you could actually contact the project builders and move in. Most of other such apartment buildings are still under construction, the Tufnell Park in kakkanad opened just a few months ago. Which mean you get first hand apartments, its not priced too high also, I say move fast. It has many facilities, they offer a lot of things compared to apartments.yeah it is 42 lacs onwards, it is already available to move in, so you could actually contact the project builders and move in.

hey if you have two kids and a wife, wont you need a 3BHK? If not now, then in the future? That is a question you need to ask yourself. Its 60 lacs onwards for a 3BHK, that is a 50% increase, that’s quite a lot but when your kids grow up you might need a bigger place. Don’t worry about accommodation for guests, the apartments have separate guest rooms for renting. The choice of getting a 3BHK is yours, anyways I think it is a good place for kids, they have many recreational activities for them. Like billiards, table tennis, squash, tennis, badminton, basketball, swimming (they have a kids pool too), and what your kids might enjoy the most is the cricket practicing nets, this is something you don’t easily find in other apartments. They also have a place for arcade and indoor games, so that is something to add to the list too. Overall it is a value for money.hey if you have two kids and a wife, wont you need a 3BHK?

Q:
Doesn’t Kochi have a proper plan in disposing or recycling e-wastes? What happens to the e-waste in there?
My replies to this discussion
According to rough estimates, around 14000 tons of e-waste is accumulated in a single month. Out of this large amount, only 120 tons are processed properly. The whole of Kerala has only one center where you can process e-waste. This canter is situated in Kanjikode, Palakkad, and it is recognised by both state and central pollution control board. So, with such a lack of facility for a whole state, Kochi e-waste disposal state is not so bright at the current moment. But Kochi is slowly turning into eco-friendly in lot of their aspects and so, you can expect proper e-waste disposals soon.

Q:
Are the Kochi Corporation still going to undertake the renovation of the markets like they said last year?
My replies to this discussion
Yeah, the Kochi Corporation hasn't given us a time for the completion of these projects. They have said that they would spend Rs. 25 crore to renovate Broadway and 15 crore for renovation of the Ernakulam market. The corporation submitted the project details to the Central Government in late 2013, but there is not much movement on this front. The Centre will probably make changes to the projects, and send it back to the corporation, who will have to modify the project details and send it again for approval. This has delayed the projects massively, which is kind of sad because these projects needed to be done at the earliest.Yeah, the Kochi Corporation hasn't given us a time for the completion of these projects.

When I think of Kochi, I envision a calm, sprawling city that looks out over the ocean. And I want to keep it that way without spending much on a house. What do you think about Mattancherry in that regard?
My replies to this discussion
Mattancherry was actually on my list of localities-to-live-in while I was in Kochi, but I never did end up living there. I just put up at a friend’s place nearby in Karuvelipady, which also overlooks the sea by the way. I can tell you something of the property rates in Mattancherry, since I’ve done house hunting over there for some time. In Mattancherry, you buy plots, residential houses, and also apartments. The price per square feet for buying an apartments or house in this locality would come up to an average of around Rs. 2,300 to Rs. 3,000 dpending upon the location within Mattancherry itself. If you’re looking to rent, then you’ll end up spending around Rs. 8 to Rs. 12 per square feet of space.Mattancherry was actually on my list of localities-to-live-in while I was in Kochi, but I never did end up living there.

Q:
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
Last year was a very bad year for Kakkanad. Even though we paid the water bill for the whole year, randomly there will be disruptions in KWA work and we won't end up getting water. The civic authorities are literally of no help. They don't give you any information as to when the water supply will eventually return, nor are there compensations. The real estate in the area dropped as people started moving out from Kakkanad because of this problem. Some new residential homes did not even have the water pipeline installed even though there were residents already living there. This issue needs to be solved completely. I don't want just temporary provisions!Last year was a very bad year for Kakkanad.

Bad news is that the work has been delayed because of the ban that it was given by the Kalamassery Municipality. Hmm. This work has been help up since April 2013 and it's quite unfortunate because work needs to be done in 6 piers namely the ones between 218 to 223. So works has been disrupted between Aluva and Palarivattom. They need to complete the work by monsoon otherwise there will definitely be further delays. Hopefully the reason for the disruption will be sorted out soon.So the good news is that Kochi is now experiencing its finest infrastructural project yet i.e The Kochi Metro Rail!

Q:
Hey when is the second phase of the RAPDRP starting? Anybody has any more info on that? I’m a homebuyer, I need to know about the electricity situation in Kochi.
My replies to this discussion
No no, the whole project isn’t costing that much. That’s the fund allocated for just this second phase. It is actually being called the Kochi Distribution System Augmentation Scheme. And other than power saving, another good thing about this project is that, once operational it will be really easy to do any sort of repair work. So as Kochites, I think we should all be very excited about this, because this will mean definitely lower no-power times.

Q:
Guys I recently heard about something that made me really happy. The startup village, has anyone heard about it? It seems a good prospect for real estate. Should I invest in property close to this place?
My replies to this discussion
Hi there. Yes, the startup village idea in Kochi is finally taking action. And that also in our very own Kalamassery! I personally think that this will be a great time to invest in property. True, that the startup village will take some time to finally start being active to its full capacity, but the time for the investment is now. You don’t want to be buying property in a full market, when it is a popular feature of the locality and the property prices are sky-high.Hi there.

Q:
Hey I was wondering if anyone knew anything about the new civic projects being undertaken by Cochin Development Authority? What sort of infrastructural changes and facilities would these projects provide? Any info would help. Thanks!
My replies to this discussion
Yes that's right! The City Corporation and Greater Cochin Development Authority have both prepared projects that they have presented to the centre for funds. Corporation prepared projects under the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission and CDA also prepared 4 projects. These projects are aimed at improving water facilities, setting up of pedestrians, canal revitalization programmes, implementation of unified metropolitan transport authority and also the formation of its special purpose vehicle. All this seem really promising and I'm really hoping these projects are executed quickly!Yes that's right!

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
Also there was the case of the burst pipeline in Kaloor that again delayed the project. The 600 mm cast iron pipeline surprisingly burst when mud excavation works were being undertaken at the project piling site. This cut off water supply to surrounding areas of Kaloor like High Court, Pachalam, Vaduthala, Kacheripady, S.R.M. Road, and Chittoor. The Kerela Water Authority can never detect where the precise location of the pipeline is and that's why so many times metro work has had to be stopped in MG road and Kaloor. 2 metres of the pipe had to end up being cut and replaced as a result of this chaos.

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
Apparently there is a lack of public buses and that's why they aren't suuplying buses to Vennala. That really isn't fair because alternative modes of transport like autos are very expensive. And hitching a ride from motorists is not a very stable option. The private buses are also very annoying. They only operate from 7 am to 8 pm even though they're supposed to start work from 5 am and finish much later than 8. The pathetic road condition is another big headache here. Every morning there's a bottleneck created by Velanna School Junction, which increases everybody's blood pressure first thing in the morning because of the madness of the traffic.Apparently there is a lack of public buses and that's why they aren't suuplying buses to Vennala.

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
It is quite unbeleivable how the stretch still hasn't been developed. It really should though. The 6 km stretch has even halted metro work and this is actually very annoying for the people traveling on this road. Even the junction has poor infrastructure and it's been that way for a while now. The Corporation promised us a number of new flyovers, and various new developments in this area but it never happened. As a result, there is still a lot of traffic chaos in the Vytilli junction. The work for Vytilla Pettah road can be done only in the small stretch between the Mobility Hub and the corporation park nearby as the land acquisition process in the remaining stretch is pending. Works should be carried out soon to solve crisis of traffic problem. It is quite unbeleivable how the stretch still hasn't been developed. It really should though.

Q:
Hey so I heard that there is a lot of open dumping of waste that takes place in Brahmapuram? What have the civic authorities done about this civic issue? Please any info would help as I am moving there shortly.
My replies to this discussion
Hello. I am a resident from Thrikkakara and I have to tell you that the stench from Brahmapuram waste disposal plant that is located there is really very unbearable sometimes. The Thrikkakara Residents’ Associations’ Apex Council are trying to do the best they can to fix this issue and have already had a word with the thrikkakara municipality but they still don't seem to be doing much. Thrikkakara is a fast growing locality which will soon turn into an IT hub. This sort of issue can seriously affect the locality's potential. Kochi's entire value will be at stake despite the smart city project if the conditions are still going to be this unhygiencic. Many are closeby to Kochi like Thiruvananthapuram, Kozhikode, Thrissur and Kollam, Kannur and Thalassery are facing big garbage disposal problems. Hello.

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
The piling work for the 620 metre long flyover in Palarivattom started on 1st June. Private company RDS Project Ltd has been given the responsibility of project implementation. I think the cost of this project is 72.6 crore and this includes 47.7 crore for construction and 24.9 crore for land acquisition. 54 cents of land had to be acquired for this project. Streetlights and other obstacles have already been removed on a 350 m stretch where work has started. Widening of the service road near Pipeline Junction will definitely help ease traffic in this area. :)The piling work for the 620 metre long flyover in Palarivattom started on 1st June.

Q:
Hey will the Lulu Group investment in Kochi's L & T techpark be beneficial for property investors in Kakkanad?
My replies to this discussion
I think the basic point of Lulu Group's M.A Yusuf Ali's idea for investing in L & T tech park was to increase the sale of commercial space that would ultimately generate a lot of employment. The Lulu Group investment of Rs 350 crores is what they recently acquired from 150 crores at L & T tech park and this investment will hopefully improve trending IT companies in the city. Lulu is even proposing a name change for L&T Tech Park to Lulu Tech Park Limited. As of right now, L&T has a four lakh sq ft IT building called Tejomaya in its 7.44 acre campus at Infopark. Tejomaya has a number of companies like TCS, IBS and Arbitron Inc. Looks like this investment is going to be beneficial for the entire locality!I think the basic point of Lulu Group's M.A Yusuf Ali's idea for investing in L & T tech park was to increase the sale of commercial space that would ultimately generate a lot of employment.

My replies to this discussion
I heard that GCDA is planning on involving public participation to improve the condition of the bridge. The chairman has said that he is going to take the suggestions of private bus owners, merchants and traders' organizations and members of chambers of commerce to get a better idea as to where exactly road work needs to be carried out. He's also going to take the opinions of corporation councillors from west Kochi region and representatives of various political parties. People from west Kochi can seriously chill out now that this high toll is done with. Perfect time for you to move here! :)I heard that GCDA is planning on involving public participation to improve the condition of the bridge.

My replies to this discussion
Yeah the fall in property registrations can be seen in the data presented by the revenue department which shows the fall in property registrations by 1,717 in 2013 to 2014, from 1,26,391 to 1,24,674. Interestingly enough though, compared to the 2010 to 2011 period, property registrations had drastically improved from 2012 to 2013 to 1, 27,506 property registrations, which is an increase of almost 25,150 registrations. because of this property registration decline, the Ernakulum district is facing a lack of funds by 346 crore less than the intended target for fiscal year 2013 to 2014.

Hey guys, I'm new to Kochi and I've been trying to decide a neighbourhood for me to live in. Can someone give me a detailed review of Kadavanthra? Also, what are apartment prices like here?
My replies to this discussion
Typically, Kadavanthra is the heart of Kochi as it forms an intersection that connects three main roads of the city and is home to many of Kochi's top offices/instituitions. Kadavanthra has many residential projects, where the price for an apartment is averaged at Rs. 3800/- per sq ft. Public transport is easily accessible with n number of bus stops and auto stands in the area. The South Railway Station is just 2 km away. The airport is around 30 km away and you can get there in an hour by car. Famous schools and colleges such as Bhavans Vidya Mandir Girinagar, Toc-H Residential School, St. Teresa's College, Chinmaya Vidyapeet are all very close by to Kadavanthra. Anything else you need - ATMs, banks, hospitals, department stores, restaurants etc is in proximity.Typically, Kadavanthra is the heart of Kochi as it forms an intersection that connects three main roads of the city and is home to many of Kochi's top offices/instituitions.

My replies to this discussion
Vaduthala is not exactly the heart of the city, but it is well connected to main city areas like MG Road and Edapally. I'm not too sure about the land rates in Vaduthala. But if you're looking at apartments, a 2 BHK flat costs around Rs. 35 - 40 lakhs and a 3 BHK flat costs Rs. 50 lakhs and above. You can check up apartments like DD Silver Stone and a number of other residential villas that are for sale. If you have children, there are good schools in the proximity. Also, there are supermarkets, hospitals and ATMs nearby. Vaduthala is not exactly the heart of the city, but it is well connected to main city areas like MG Road and Edapally.

My replies to this discussion
Hey there! Compared to the main city areas which can get crowded and chaotic to reside in, Vaduthala is a very calm area. But if you're a typical city dweller who loves all the noise and nightlife then you might want to rethink living here. Public transport is available to people by means of autos, buses and trains - there are a few bus stations and a railway station in the locality. Vaduthala is linked to major city areas like MG Road, Edapally and Palarivattom. The well known Lourdes Hospital and top-rank schools like Chinmaya Vidyalaya, Don Bosco Senior Secondary School, SBOA Public School are situated in Vaduthala. As far as staying goes, there are apartments and villas you can choose from. There are ATMs, restaurants, supermarkets and petrol stations in and around the area. Hey there!

But it's not like you will have to live a boring life as Vaduthala is connected to happening city areas like MG Road, Panampally Nagar, Edapally and you can get there by means of autos, trains and buses. There are shopping stores, ATMs, petrol stations and restaurants in and around Vaduthala. About your stay, you could rent an apartment but that can turn out to be a costly affair considering you're going to be on your own. I'd suggest you take up a PG accomodation. Ladies PG accomodations are available in a distance of 2 - 4 km from Vaduthala, monthly rent of Rs. 2000 - 3800 approximately. Gents PG accomodations are available in Vaduthala itself, monthly rent of Rs. 1800 - 2000. Most of the PGs provide all meals a day, otherwise they have kitchen facilities so you can make your own food. I hope this information comes of use to you :)Hey!

What’s the rent trend in the city? I’m planning to buy a second property in Marine Drive and rent it out. What do you think guys, good idea? Suggestions are welcome.
My replies to this discussion
Its definitely weird, but good to be cashed in on. Now you can charge up to Rs 12,500 a month for a regular 2bhk, which would have brought you just Rs 8500 a year back.Its definitely weird, but good to be cashed in on.

Anything for Kochi in the new union budget? Thinking of investing in this city, want to know about its future prospects.
My replies to this discussion
For example the Rs 250 crore Maradu water treatment project. The thing is that so far, the city has been only able to spend 46% of the allotted Rs 517 crores, and without further approval from the centre, nobody knows what steps to take. The projects are lying abandoned at the moment.For example the Rs 250 crore Maradu water treatment project.

That means that it will be almost 10m wide.Yeah, after the construction of the Vytilla mobility hub and the metro station here.

Q:
Hey I’m a smalltime real estate agent in Kochi. I’m thinking why the market is going down in Kochi. Nobody is interested in buying property anymore. Does it look like the market situation might be improving now or soon in the near future?
My replies to this discussion
Yeah, the increase in the prices is really affecting the real estate market. People are not interested in investing in a dying market where there is no proper growth or development happening. Even at the moment a lot of apartments have been constructed and are just lying empty because there are no takers for the Kochi real estate.Yeah, the increase in the prices is really affecting the real estate market.

They have claimed that whoever surrenders their land without charging anything will receive Transfer of Development Rights (TDR), which basically means that they will enjoy certain privileges in building rules throughout the state.Yes but I think what the authorities have come up with for the land acquisition is interesting.

You're right man. For those of who are not familiar with this road, it connects directly to the road leading to Kottayam. Now this one is a much wider road. So what happens is that there is a heavy inflow of traffic down this road, which tends to get stuck in the much narrower Vaikom road, creating a bottleneck. And it needs fixing immediately.You're right man. For those of who are not familiar with this road, it connects directly to the road leading to Kottayam. Now this one is a much wider road.

Perumbavoor is awesome! The climate and the lush green surrounding due to the timber industry just adds to it. As far as housing options go, like everywhere else in Kerala, most are landed individual houses. Around 38%.

Hey buddy you could take an apartment here on rent. 3 BHK apartment units usually cost about Rs 30,000 per month and the rent of 4 BHK apartment units is Rs 55,000 per month.

Q:
Hi, I'm thinking of relocating to Palarivattom with my family, within the next two months. Please tell me about the facilities in this area and whether its a good idea to invest here?
My replies to this discussion
Hello there, Palarivattom's real estate has been booming in the current decade. But since it's a developed city, malls, banks, hospitals and small shops are plentiful. this is a good locality to invest in. You'll find a lot of schools, colleges and bus stops around NH-40. The property value might be a little on the higher side due to the good facilities that are present here.Hello there, Palarivattom's real estate has been booming in the current decade.

Exactly, The major problem i have seen is in the road near Irumpanam and Cochin Special Economic Zone. There are many commercial establishments that have extended their shops to pavements by four to five feet. This also resulted in some dangerous parking near these shops. But, for the widening of the seaport-airport road, these illegal encroachments would be identified and evicted.Exactly, The major problem i have seen is in the road near Irumpanam and Cochin Special Economic Zone.

Hi there...I am considering investing in Kochi. Is it a good option. Please provide an investment advice for buying a residential property in the area of Kochi. Any info would be helpful for making my decision.
My replies to this discussion
I think some of the key reasons for the development of Kochi as a sought-after destination for the investors is that of Infrastructural development. Recently only, the commencement of the much awaited Kochi metro came. Moreover, the Smart city initiatives as well as the opening of various job avenues in the city, are in my opinion, the greatest forces for this change.I think some of the key reasons for the development of Kochi as a sought-after destination for the investors is that of Infrastructural development.

Hi, I came to know about some seafood park project that will come up in Alappuzha. Is it true? Give some detailed information about this if possible. Thank you..

I think that this is among some of the projects that are undertaken by the Union Ministry of Food Processing Industries. I came to know that the two mega food parks in Kerala were among the 17 suitable proposals approved by the ministry.I think that this is among some of the projects that are undertaken by the Union Ministry of Food Processing Industries.

True about the response from the KSEB officials. Though we took up the issue with board officials, they have attributed it to technical flaws. But the power cuts have gone on.

As far as I came to know, the station has a ground level reservoir (GLR) with one lakh litre capacity and an overhead tank with 10,000 litre capacity. Sometimes, even though the GLR has adequate water, due to frequent power failures, authorities are unable to pump water to the overhead tank.

Q:
Hi, I came to see that there is an acute problem of water contamination in Kochi. Is there anything in the news about the pangs of the residents due to contaminated water.
My replies to this discussion
Yeah..exactly. I agree with you...This is a season when the number of cases of acute diarrhoeal disease (ADD), hepatitis-A, typhoid and gastroenteritis go up. You have to watch out for ice used by juice vendors. There is a huge element of health risk in it. That is why the residents of Kochi should be careful about such proneness to these diseases.
