Mothers’ quest for social security catalyst to property buying

Mother’s Day & property market! The topic has been debated the world over and it has mostly revolved around whether a house could be a perfect Mother’s Day gift. Or else whether one should buy a house near mother’s place. However, mother as a factor in the property world is not just confined to a limited scope of her being a recipient or just an emotional comforting factor. In fact, she has always been an influencer and with economic independence is fast emerging as a catalyst to property buying. On this Mother’s Day Track2Realty explores as to how much the mom factor is “the factor” in the property market.

7 years of RERA; 7 unaddressed questions

It was conceptualised to clean the opaque ecosystem of Indian real estate; was touted to be the biggest reform of the sector; and expected to enhance the home buyers’ confidence index. But seven long years after the enactment of the Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA), it has still not evolved as a stamp of trust for the harassed home buyers. RERA’s tryst with trial & error has not only dented the confidence of the home buyers but also lent credence to the perception that complaint with RERA rather gives an edge to the builders. After all, RERA has been relegated to be the balancing act for both the builder and the buyer. A Track2Realty analysis.

How to make housing more affordable?

No one has got a clear answer to the core of the problems and every industry  stakeholder has his own point of view. However, the economies of scale suggests it definitely helps the developers to undertake cost-effective measures since material procurement happens at a group level. This gives large developers an advantage over other smaller developers and projects. Also, the duration of construction has an impact on the cost. The developers must ensure the completion of projects on time, which could help us sell the properties at a faster pace and keep the cost under control.

Real estate victim or guilty of snail-paced manufacturing?

The question is what needs to be done. Or in other words, how could real estate consume more out of ‘Make in India’ manufacturing? The question in itself is flawed, if not in sync with the larger eco system issues. Setting up and making a manufacturing unit in India comes with its own challenges. Cheap labour alone would not give India any edge or cost arbitrage over the export items. ‘Make in India’ has to move beyond the rhetoric of nationalism and reforms have to be introduced at each and every level, ranging from lower corporate tax to labour laws and making the country a happy hunting ground for the manufacturers of the world.

SM REIT at a nascent stage of fractional ownership

The Securities Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has introduced amendments to the REIT Regulations 2014, which outlines provisions for the formation of Small and Medium Real Estate Investment Trusts (SM REITs). With this the built environment of the Indian real estate has gone euphoric with the underlying promise to witness windfall into fractional ownership.

Will fractional ownership change commercial property market ahead?

Fractional Ownership is an evolving concept, on the lines of REIT but very different from REIT. Unlike REIT, which is a listed entity owning income producing real estate, Fractional Ownership is coming together of investors to pool their funds and jointly purchase real estate. Though in its very essence, the idea is to rent it out and earn the equitable rentals, many ‘office for a limited purpose’ investors are also getting into Fractional Ownership for convenience.

Taken for granted voters behind Greater Noida West plight

Greater Noida West, or Noida Extension in popular parlance, is a case study in how a high potential property market suffers from years of systematic plight. Reason is more political apathy than administrative callousness, and the home buyers in this part of the world are waiting for basic services like Underpass, Metro Rail, Foot Over Bridge among others for around a decade now. A micro market with around a million (10 lakh) vote bank, taken together voters of high-rise apartments & adjoining villages, is part of Gautam Buddha Nagar Lok Sabha constituency. Ravi Sinha finds that the citizens in this part of the world have no one but themselves to blame for having allowed elected representatives to treat them as taken for granted voters.
