This place has world famous hospitals, like Amrutha MAJ and KIMS, which makes it a star on the real estate market. It is also located near major national highways like NH-47 and NH-17.

Q:
What are the apartments that are available in D D Diamond Valley project? How much will buying an apartment there cost me? Will it be a good investment choice?
My replies to this discussion
The square foot rates at DD Diamond Valley are Rs 2200-2350/sq. ft. An average 2 BHK here is about 1140 square feet. So the total cost will be about Rs 27 Lakhs. Other than these, 3 BHK apartments are also available at the Diamond Valley project. The 3BHKs are bigger and come in five different sizes. An average 1445 square feet 3BHK apartment will cost around Rs 32 Lakhs.
The property prices are reasonable at the moment and I think it is an excellent investment opportunity, since it is located in the very heart of the IT hub.The square foot rates at DD Diamond Valley are Rs 2200-2350/sq. ft.

Q:
How much do I have to pay for electricity every month in Kochi?
My replies to this discussion
Yeah, the electricity tariff table given above is pretty accurate. Hence for an average domestic household, the average tariff is Rs. 2.80 per unit of electricity. The fixed charges of Rs. 20 for a single-phase connection or Rs. 60 for a three-phase connection have to be paid only by the consumers who use more than 40 units of electricity in a month. If you stay within the first slab of energy usage, then you just have to pay for your consumption and will be exempted from paying the minimum fixed chargeYeah, the electricity tariff table given above is pretty accurate.

I currently live in Kochi, I’ll be going there to check out the place for myself, but I just couldn’t find the time yet. If you know about these apartments then help get a better picture.

And if I am not mistaken the price for an apartment is 60 lacs right?

Hey no its not 60 lacs, it is around 55 lacs for a 2BHK and around 71 for a 3BHK. It is already done with construction, you could move in when you want. Its a good location, but you live in Kochi so you already know. Facilities are basic, the normal things you get at other luxury apartments, so nothing special.

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
I agree that this is a decent place to rent out an apartment. But is it close to your son’s college? I think that should be the first thing to consider. If it is, then yeah you can absolutely go ahead with it. Being a major commercial place, it should suit your son’s needs. You have a lot of supermarkets and shopping centres there. It is also has a state highway passing through it, and the metro train will also be available there, so that should make it easier for him to get around. The rent is also quite reasonable there.I agree that this is a decent place to rent out an apartment. But is it close to your son’s college? I think that should be the first thing to consider.

Hey guys! I’m planning to shift from Coimbatore to Kochi. Along my search for a good residence, I’ve come across Aspen Campus Court. Please furnish me with more details regarding this place.
My replies to this discussion
You do know that this project is made of only apartments, don’t you? You see, you can either get a 2 BHK or a 2BHK. But, don’t make the mistake of thinking that they’ll come for cheap. With the kind of facilities that they’re offering, the construction firm expects at least Rs. 3,800 per square feet. I don’t know if that amount’s negotiable, but you can try your luck. The location of this property has been well-chosen, and connectivity is excellent. The flats are spread out over a size of either 1572 sq ft or 1760 sq ft. So, going by that logic, a 3 BHK in Aspen Campus Court would cost you around 75 to 83 lakh rupees.You do know that this project is made of only apartments, don’t you?

Q:
I’ve recently learnt of Trinity World Mercury through a huge billboard hoarding. What are the factors that I need to consider before making a long-term investment in an apartment over there?
My replies to this discussion
Hi! Trinity World Mercury has an attractive bunch of apartments, but I’m afraid that they’re slightly above my budget. You can get 2 BHKs in this residential project, but I have no clue as to the extent of their availability. The price per square feet is a little bit hefty for me at around Rs. 3,700. But given the prime location of this place, with its close proximity to IT organisations and tech parks, it’s actually as per market rates. The 2 BHKs cover a size of say approximately 1200 square feet to 1350 square feet. That means, with the price per square feet taken into account, the cost of each 1 BHK in this place would be somewhere between 50 and 52 lakhs.Hi!

These apartments are priced anywhere between 9.7 lakh to 19.5 lakh rupees. You see, the builders are currently offering customers with the option of furnishing their houses. So, you’ll be charged accordingly as per your choice. The price per square feet for each of these apartments comes up to approximately Rs. 3,000. This rate is kind of reasonable for the locality and the facilities being offered.Hey there.

Q:
Hey there all. I’m new to Kochi, and I have been struggling to find a neighbourhood for me to live in. What do you people think about Aluva? How are the facilities, connectivity, etc. in this area?
My replies to this discussion
The prices in Aluva are actually on an upward bend as of now. If you had invested say, a year or two back, you would have probably made a good profit by now. The average property price per square feet in Aluva was slightly more than and also lesser than Rs. 3,000 the last year and the year before that. This year, the property prices in Aluav seem to be hovering at around Rs. 3,400 per square feet. While the more expensive properties price themselves at around Rs. 3,700 per square feet, the less pricey properties cost around Rs. 3,200.The prices in Aluva are actually on an upward bend as of now.

Q:
I have decided to move to Kochi for a certain duration of time. I intend to stay at a premium residence in an upscale locality. The people in my company have recommended Edappaly. I need more inputs to make a decision.
My replies to this discussion
Hello there! Looking at your no-nonsense tone of writing, I can tell that you mean business. I know some about Edappally from the couple of years I’ve lived there myself. I’ve shifted however, and currently live in Kasol. I like the air up here in the mountains much better. But hey, getting back to Edappally, it definitely is one of the most developed localities in Kochi. From what I’ve last heard of it from friends, it’s slowly emerging as an important junction in the whole state of Kerala itself. When it comes to convenience, you don’t have to think twice about this locality. In this locality, you’ll be living in close proximity to shopping malls, super-specialty hospitals, and parks.Hello there!

Q:
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
Hahaha. You have envisioned most of Kochi wrong, my friend. Maybe your imagination might have held some validity a hundred years back, but now, Kochi is a bustling city with people chattering everywhere. This is the reason why there are so many suburbs popping up out of nowhere around the outskirts of Kochi. Mattancherry, I agree, is a place where you get half your deal. You’ll get a good view of the ocean, but I cannot promise you anything about the calm surroundings you so desire. This locality seems tiny, because of the small size of the roads. You’ll find that most of the houses here have been built as per bygone architectural designs of the past.Hahaha. You have envisioned most of Kochi wrong, my friend.

Q:
Hi all. Someone I know wants to move to Galaxy Pine Court in Kakkanad area of Kochi. As I don’t live in Kochi anymore, I don’t really know much. Can anyone provide some insights about the project in terms of amenities, pricing and others?
My replies to this discussion
Hi, as the pricing has already been discussed by pervios answers, I would like to inform you about the locality around Galaxy Pine Court. The infopark in Kakkanad is the closest to this project in vicinity and that makes it a great place to live in. Sprawled across 136 cents, Galaxy Pine Court is consising of 3 towers. Here you can choose between 2 and 3 BHK homes, for moving in as well as to rent out as an investment. Aside from this, the project is blooming with amenities so that you can live in high lifestyle with connectivity and luxury.Hi, as the pricing has already been discussed by pervios answers, I would like to inform you about the locality around Galaxy Pine Court.

Q:
Hi, I am planning to invest in Trinity World Mercury project in Kakkanad. Would like to know the pricing of the apartments here and what amenities are provided, thanks.
My replies to this discussion
Okay...when I contacted the builders recently, I came to know about the total cost of the 2 bhk duplex flats here at Trinity Mercury. The total cost they are saying, all inclusive except the registration charges is around rs. 50.35 lakhs. for this. I think this is a pretty decent choice.Okay...when I contacted the builders recently, I came to know about the total cost of the 2 bhk duplex flats here at Trinity Mercury.

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
Sure water supply in the area was abyssmal, especially last year. But in terms of real estate Kakkanad is doing quite well. Booming infrastructure, close proximity to IT centres, greeeat road connectivity as it is located along the NH 47. Airport and railway station are also close by. The area has some nice parks and recreational facilities. Investing here is a good option. Infrastructure is developing and the water supply situation will eventually be completely fixed. Let's not forget the buzzing Infopark and CSEZ as well as the proposed Smart City in this region! Ultimately this area has a lot of long term benefits!Sure water supply in the area was abyssmal, especially last year. But in terms of real estate Kakkanad is doing quite well.

My replies to this discussion
Some safety problems are there in Aluva. Actually just last year a man was hacked to death in broad daylight! This was all over the news. Passersby all got a glimpse of oozing blood down the pavements of Aluva and rushed to help this man by taking him to the closest hospital. But he had died. Turns out that he was a gang member himself! So if you have children, then be extra careful in this place. There are a few rowdy gangs in the area. But if you take up a residential home then I'm sure it will be fine. There are some really good waterfront homes in Aluva with 24 hour security! :)Some safety problems are there in Aluva.

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
I think that there is a lot of potential in Kochi when it comes to real estate. And yes, Marine Drive will be the first location to really thrive! But there a few hitches, yes, that Marine Drive needs to overcome. Builders are getting annoyed with the number od residents associations that are sprucing up because they feel it affects their bilding activity. However the residents are keen on the builders having 3 shifts a day like in Bangalore instead of just 1, so that the project can be completed in 1 year instead of 3. The locality has a really great charm about it and the view is beautiful. One of the best places to live in Kochi! :)I think that there is a lot of potential in Kochi when it comes to real estate.

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
To be honest, the pipe repair work in Aroor was almost immediate but for Kumbalum the pipe fixing took at least 2 to 3 days. But lots of work has to be done. A road enclave had to be made so that repair works could begin and that ended up taking the entire first day. So people had no choice but to find other sources of water for a couple of days. Aroor in general is quite a developed part of Kochi so civic issues like this are responded to quickly by civic authorities. Apart from Aroor is really beautiful. It's actually a hot spot for tourism in Kerela! :)To be honest, the pipe repair work in Aroor was almost immediate but for Kumbalum the pipe fixing took at least 2 to 3 days.

Q:
Hey why did the Kalamassery Municipality ban metro work in the locality? Will this affect real estate in the area?
My replies to this discussion
Hey it was for a very important reason that the Kalamassery Municipality decided to take that step. Why would they purposely be wanting any delay in the metro rail project? The metro authority kept violating the rules related to land space in the area. They took more land than what was appointed, and they started to divert the traffic themselves without even consulting anyone. Also the number of drain pipes that burst were a lot! Oh and concrete waste was dumped on sidewalks without any cleaning up activity. Kalamassery wants to the project to resume but it also wants the authorities to respect the guidelines!Hey it was for a very important reason that the Kalamassery Municipality decided to take that step.

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
Yeah, from what I’ve heard, the NH47 has been blocked from 11 July, to prevent any kinds of traffic issues, because some serious construction works of the metro is going on there. Though I’m not sure about the timing exactly, but if he is right, then I don’t think you need to worry. Though I would suggest you to find out about any alternate route to work. You never know what might happen.Yeah, from what I’ve heard, the NH47 has been blocked from 11 July, to prevent any kinds of traffic issues, because some serious construction works of the metro is going on there.

I hear that there have been a number of cases of building rules violations in Kochi lately. What do you guys know about this? Care to shed some light?
My replies to this discussion
Yes, actually you’ve heard right. A number of building rule violations and illegal properties have recently come to light. One of these happened in the Kudanoor district in Kochi. Its basically a 19 storyed apartment complex, which was violating building laws. You must all know that Kudanoor is a coastal regulation zone (CRZ), so any building here will have to follow the basically coastal regulation norms, which this particular building in question was flouting. There were other buildings like this as well. Does anyone know more?Yes, actually you’ve heard right. A number of building rule violations and illegal properties have recently come to light.

My replies to this discussion
Yeah actually the civic body's main focus is to develop the city roads and transport infrastructure. But there are a number of projects that GCDA has raised funds for. Let's see, there's the 200 crore for developing Vaduthala Varapuzha costal road, 45 crore for that sports complex at Manasserry, 6 crore skywalk at High Court Junction, 98 crore for the convention centre at Jawaharlal Nehru International Stadium and15 crore underground parking centre at Ambedkar stadium. That's a lot of investments but it's good that both bodies are taking a step forward to develop Kochi!

Hai I have to move to Vaduthala but I heard that the road is very narrow and many accidents are caused. Has the Kochi Municipal Corporation extended this road yet?
My replies to this discussion
Yes this narrow road really was causing lot of problems to the residents. They filed a petition and submitted it to the Kochi corporation and finally got approval for road widening works from Kochi mayor. He's stated that this will benefit people coming from Vaduthala to other parts of the city. The road from Vaudthala Railway Gate to Panchalam Junction is going to be widened. This was decided last year but obviously executing the plan is still taking very long time.Yes this narrow road really was causing lot of problems to the residents.

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
In Kaloor, metro authorities were alerted about the drain issue after the dumping of slurry into open drains. this clogged up the drains and there was stagnating drain water all over the area. I also heard about another problem in kaloor that happened more recently, which stopped the metro works. Government agencies have been reluctant o part with their land all along the metro stretch so areas such as Aluva, Kalamassery, Jawaharlal Nehru International Stadium, Kaloor private bus stand, Ernakulam south and Vyttila, have stalled metro works. In the Kaloor stadium area, it is the Kerela state Housing Board had problems giving up their land in Kaloor bus stand, Kochi Corporation was hesitant to give up land here. But according to the government agencies, they really have no problem in giving up the land for metro works, only thing is that they need compensation from the government in doing so and they still haven't got that. That's why they can't give up the land formally yet.In Kaloor, metro authorities were alerted about the drain issue after the dumping of slurry into open drains. this clogged up the drains and there was stagnating drain water all over the area.

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
The 2 km long strecth of the Vennala Palachuvadu road is the most unpleasent experience to drive on. There are potholes and temporary repair works everywhere. This road has to endure a good amount of traffic because it is the link to Kakkanad and Kalamassery. Many IT employees need to use this route to get to work also. Maintenance works on both ends of the road at Vennala and Palachuvadu is either completed or in process and these shoddy works is what is making the road so terrible. In fact, I don't remember this road ever being fully tarred, just with temporary patch works. And before this road there was a ferry service which I think was much better than this sad excuse for a road!The 2 km long strecth of the Vennala Palachuvadu road is the most unpleasent experience to drive on.

But there were many changes implemented on Vytilla road because of the loops that were built to stop the cross road traffic and the media that extended through the junction.There were two circular loops at the vytilla mobility hub. Heavy vehicles now use outer loop and small vehicles use the inner circle. The construction was completed sometime last year and it has done wonders to helping traffic in this area.

Q:
I might most probably be moving to Thevara but I want to know about the transportation facilities available here. Has the ferry resumed services again?
My replies to this discussion
Apart from ferry service there are also buses and other methods of transport but only thing is traveling on thevara road is not a very pleasent experience. The locality is very nice and on the outskirts so it is quiet and peaceful. That's why many people are moving here now and there is a big strain on the existing infrastructural facilities in this area. I think that the Thevara junction to UP bridge road should be widened to ease traffic. A parallel road from Kasturba Nagar to Thevara Kundannoor should also be constructed. This will seriously improve transport facilities in this locality.Apart from ferry service there are also buses and other methods of transport but only thing is traveling on thevara road is not a very pleasent experience.

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
There's actually another reason why this project never saw daylight. Even though funds were there, the project was still very expensive costing close to 1000 crore. Because of this the Public Works Department feels that it is important to find more cost effective ways to deal with the situation. At the same time, the Kochi metro rail project was approved and work has started. Since there are plans of the metro rail being set up in thevara, GCDA decided to take up road work once after the metro rail has been completed. Officials feel that traffic issue will automatically reduce because of the metro rail and road widening might not even be required. That's why they've put the project on hold and they'll see how it will be later. There's actually another reason why this project never saw daylight.

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
Yes that is exactly why there is going to be a new solid waste treatment plant in Brahmapuram and the project will be undertaken this year. It is going to be located adjacent to the existing plant and is said to cost 350 crore which will be beneficial to the Kochi Corporation, 5 neighbouring municipalities and 9 grama panchayats. Kochi Corporation is to take care of the implementation, KITCO is to be the transactional advisor and Suchwita Mission is to be the Corporation's backup support. They want to implement a decentralized waste system where biodegradable waste from households and all that will get treated at the source itself. Hopefully this should be a better alternative.Yes that is exactly why there is going to be a new solid waste treatment plant in Brahmapuram and the project will be undertaken this year.

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
So what Lulu Group wants to do after the acquisition is expanding on the space and adding another 9 lakh square feet worth of space around the entire info tech park area. The project proposal they are planning on submitting in a week so they can get all their permits and clearences. After which the project will only start by sometime in the middle of next year. From that time, it is said to be completed in 3 years. But the project is said to give lots of employment at least for 13,000 to 15,000 people. Real estate and property value in the area will suddenly shoot up and many infrastructural projects like widening of roads, new hospitals and so on will creep up in the area because of more demand. This locality is a great place to invest in.

Hey ya Tripunithra is a very nice locality that is just 11 km from Kochi. It comes under the Ernakulum municipality and that's very good because the Ernakalum Residents Welfare Association does a lot to help rid the locality of civic issues and other such neighbourhood issues. It has come up very much in the last couple of years and has all good infrastructural facilities and good connectivity to other parts of the city. It also has cheaper property rates than most other places in Kochi.Hey ya Tripunithra is a very nice locality that is just 11 km from Kochi.

It has come up very much in the last couple of years and has all good infrastructural facilities and good connectivity to other parts of the city. It also has cheaper property rates than most other places in Kochi.
Q:
I was thinking about buying property in Kalamassery but how well does the locality attract industrial sector to rent commercial spaces here? How good do you think my investment returns will be? Does the area have the potential to grow and develop further in the future?
My replies to this discussion
hey I really like Kalamessery. I think this locality has got a lot of scope and potential to grow because of the high demand for residential property here. Many areas in Kochi are slowly becoming micromarkets and Kalamassery's growth as a micromarket has been relatively low as compared to other areas in Kochi. It took a while for industries to set up base here but they finally did and now there is also demand for commercial spaces by a number of investors.hey I really like Kalamessery.

My replies to this discussion
I have no idea why project launches and sales declined this year, but they did. Kochi has a very sluggish real estate market right now, according to me. The 921 target reached last year couldn't be reached this year. Even apartment registrations have majorly reduced from 5,074 in 2012-13 to 3,844 last year. Maximum number of flats were registered in Thrikkakara, Maradu and Ernakulum. Now the situation has just changed. I have no idea why project launches and sales declined this year, but they did.

The simulator is actually a good facility for tests for driving license. I think that the government order is required if the facility is to be used for issuing driving licences. Simulators are currently being used by many prominent driving institutes. But, for driving tests, it require trained men for operating the facility. That is why, it would take more time before the simulator becomes fully operational.The simulator is actually a good facility for tests for driving license.
