Bangalore to get No 1 position for the home price rise

Mumbai and Delhi NCR has for a larger amount of time given the property buyers the best property price and value appreciation. After the down sliding years in the major IT cities of the Bangalore and Pune these amazing cities have come up as a strong and emerging centers for the capital appreciation and have been most popular among the residential properties of the city.

As per many surveys conducted by the major real estate gurus it is estimated that Bangalore has been voted as the highest average capital appreciation under the middle income housing segment. This survey has shown around 41% of appreciation between the initial six months of the 2011 and the same situation has continued for the next consecutive year. Following the growth pattern with the same graph was Pune which showed around 28% growth. In the very same time Pune followed a growth of about 39% in the capital values for the major and the most premium properties. These figures reported by the survey were the highest recorded in the country that too in that particular segment and market. Bangalore followed close behind with nearly 37%.

As per the disparity which prevails in comparing the residential price tags in the city. The world famous firm Cushman and Wakefield has classified the middle income housing under the terms where any property below Rs. 5000 per sq. ft. is a kind of middle income housing whereas all other property above the price are under the category of high end.

The middle incomes as well as the high income segments are performing well in the real estate market of both Delhi- NCR and Mumbai as well.

The super stable markets in the real estate segments of Bangalore and Pune where the end users are majorly driven they are surely the ones to record the highest value of the average increasing capital values. It is therefore, clear from the survey that the investor driven market of Delhi and Mumbai have not performed well comparatively.

In the times passed by the IT sector of India has seen a growth transformation, which has resulted in the creation of very many jobs. This drastic increase has also led to the increase in the salary at many levels. In India there is a very varied correlation between the IT Sector and the property price appreciation. Those cities whose economies are to a greater extent led by the IT sector also tend to witness a prosperous demand for the middle income as well as the premium housing.

Those cities which are majorly IT driven are seen more engrossed in the level aspiration and expecting high in limits. There aspiration is comparatively more for home seekers and also their purchasing power, a much higher exposure to the International housing as well as luxury standards, they also aspire much about the contemporary concepts like the environmental sustainability.

According to many major real estate analysts here has been no major growth in the residential real estate of Bangalore and Pune as a result the two major IT sectors have remained on a balanced equilibrium for a longer period. The case is absolutely opposite when the real estate sector of Delhi NCR and Mumbai are concerned there the real estate prices are increasing at a much higher rate.

Tricks used by real estate developers to attract the home buyers these days

There is a lack of transparency in the real estate market today. The real estate developers are doing a lot of stuff to attract the buyers and the potential investors. To their projects the realty developers are nearly at their toes and are trying to crack a deal. For many of the home buyers buying a house is an extremely important affair and they need to be careful enough as they have to spend their savings of a lifetime. These days a lot of developers in the real estate market have set many tricks and traps to gain the attention of these buyers.

The article discusses some of those gimmicks and traps by the real estate developers which are indeed the eye opener for them.

Freebies and discounts: These days the realty developers are offering various discounts which are kind of more of common practice these days. The most popular kind of freebies given away is gold coin, parking space, club membership or some other holiday and tourist packages. The buyers think that its wise deal and they end up taking free being thinking to have saved a lot of money. The reality to this is according to a new rule passed the real estate developers cannot charge the buyers of a parking space and it should be inclusive with the payment of the house. But to seeing on the other side of the coin the parking space these days is given away for free. The give away discounts and freebies are nothing but just a candy to attract the buyers and the in fact do no real good to the investors.

Rental Returns Guaranteed: Rentals are guaranteed and are offered by the developers to the investors who are willing to take rentals on a continuous basis. In simple language this means that the buyers are entitled to get a rental income of around 8 to 12 percent which of the total value of the property as promised by the realty developer. This offers the free maintenance of the property. The trick of this scheme is; the realty developers do it when they are undergoing some cash crunch but if the developer fails in accumulating needed cash then there is also a possibility of a bounced cheque. While going in for such contract one must make sure that there are no hidden costs which are included in the agreement only.

The Pre EMI Schemes: The simple meaning of the pre EMI is it gets disbursed majorly depending upon the stages of construction. This means the buyers need not pay any EMIs until the construction gets over and also unless the possession is handed over. Many of the real estate developers choose the option of pre EMI sharing in which they have to pay this amount within a period of 24 months.

The word of caution before going in for such an option is that the home buyers should make sure that the developer does not have any padded cost. Along with such an option the real estate developer might not give away any kind of freebies. Even in the case of project delay the Pre EMI might also get extended and the home buyers will lastly have to pay the entire amount on their own.

The Model Flat: Understanding the blue prints and the prototype is really hard for common people. To make things much simple the real estate developers make a model flat for the home buyers. The catch in this is while preparing the model houses the developers may add a lot of amenities and embellishments which might miss lead the buyers. In a prototype the same place might appear big but in reality it might turn out to be comparatively small. It is one kind of a created illusion from which the buyers and the investors might be aware of.

Offer Warranties: As developers these days are providing certain appliances along with the residential units. The have also initiated the giveaway of warranty cards along with these gadgets. This clearly means that these days when buying a house the developers are getting a warranty for their amenities and comforts. The one major trick with this attractive offer is that the real estate developer only gives away the papers of the warranty, just in case of any defect or malfunction such amenities like geyser, kitchen chimney or bathroom fittings the buyer only needs to run to the product manufacture. There the problem could arise the real estate developer during that time might turn into a deaf ear after handing over the apartment.

Setback Space Definition and Margins Formulated By BDA

Setback space is one of the parameters involved in the property of which most of the people are not aware.

Setback Definition:

Setback or Setback space is the open space between the building or a house that is constructed and the border of the plot. Several kinds of authorities have demarcated minimum values of setback that needs to be required.

The setback space limit is set by the Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) depending on the height of the building, which is in question. For instance, buildings that have a height up to 11.5 meter have different setback limits while those houses that have a height greater than 11.5m.

The below mentioned table shows the setback space limit for buildings shorter than 11.5 m. and plot size lesser than 4000 sq. m:

	Width of the site(Right)	Width of the site (Left Side)	Depth of the site (right side)	Depth of the site (left side)
Up to 6.0 meter	1.0 meter	0 meter	1.0 meter	0 meter
Between 6.0 and 9.0 meter	1 meter on all sides	1 meter on all sides	1 meter on all sides	1 meter on all sides
Above 9.0 meter	8%	8%	12%	8%

For plots that are larger than 4000 sq. m. a minimum setback of 5.0m on all sides need to be maintained.

The below table shows the setback space for buildings with a height of more than 11.5 meter:

Height of the building(m)	Front, rear, and side setbacks (min. in m)
11.5 m - 15 m	5
15 m - 18 m	6
18 - 21 m	7
21 - 24 m	8
24 - 27 m	9
27 - 30 m	10
30 - 35 m	11
35 - 40 m	12
40 - 45 m	13
45 - 50 m	14
Greater than 50.0 m	16

For uneven plots, regular setback spaces not taken into account. In its place, depths and widths should be measured in those areas where the plot is uneven and setbacks should be considered for those sections.

Nonetheless, it is important that this setback area is located within the plot and does not comprise any open space outside the plot area. If public open spaces are considered as a part of the setback then it is illegal and could lead to complications.

For an instance, in a plot located at one corner then the two sides facing the road will be taken as front side and the related setbacks would be allotted to these sides.

In those plots that have two roads on both front and the back end then both the road facing sides shall be treated as front and the other two sides will be regarded as right sides.
