Your dream home may now cost less

Hi Friends

This is with respect to the recent hot property news travelling with the speed of 3 × 100000000 metres per second.

I am Sanjay Masawan working as a Software Engineer at Seepz, Mumbai and staying at Malad West. The latest property news has created an immense chaos not only in the country but abroad also.

The upsurge in the property rates have resulted in making the lives of people miserable. The average class who dreamt of staying in their own houses, now are living distressfully with the fact that they can never buy a house. The house that was 10 lakhs 2 years back is now selling in 21 lakhs. Even the old building prices have boosted unnecessarily. This in-affordbility has caused great tension in the minds of people which in turn carry this tension to work also.

The government has taken the initiative to coerce the builders to sell the area on Carpet and not "Built Up" or "Super Built Up" area. The government should also keep the key factor in mind that the whole purpose of the Carpet Area excercise should result in reduction of the property prices. If the sellers are selling the properties on Carpet area but at the same price then there is no benefit for common man. Government should do something to make the property affordable to common man.

Finally there is Good news that the property prices have started falling in some the area's of mumbai (thane)

The various factors that have triggered to the rates going down:

1. The new housing policy proposing to make sale of flats only on the basis of carpet area.

2. The government making a positive attempt to repeal the Urban Land Ceiling & Regulation Act (ULCRA) in the winter session of the state legislature beginning December 4 at Nagpur. Government has acquired more than 2,000 hectares across the state under the Act in past two years, including some 400 hectares in Mumbai alone. Unlocking this land would also bring down the property cost in Mumbai by 30% to 40%

3. Govt planning area-wise cap on realty prices across country

FACT: Till now the buyers and sellers both were confused. Even though the sellers were coating a huge price for the flats and the property rates was touching the sky, there were hardly any outright deals taking place.

Rates have already started going down and everyone will definately move to cheaper areas.

Happy Home
Sanjay Masawan

Moderator Note: I can't help thinking this is more appropriate to a property site, but, anyway, one thread is enough: threads merged.

Is this YOUR opinion? Is it based on some reports? If so, could you please point us to it?

I've seen nothing in the newspapers here. Of course I'm not in Mumbai, but any central govt action on property would surely be reported. And you can be sure that Mrs N and I would be very interested in any such news.

Real Estate Sudden Price Drop In Mumbai

Hello ,

I think with my experience and discussion with some of the real estate brokers in Mumbai and suburbs I must aggree with Sanjay.

There is definate confusion with residential property buyers after CM's annoucement.

I must say that people who intend to buy home,must take a time off to study this what's going on before making a final decision.

All the best....

Announcements by Chief Ministers usually get quoted in newspapers. And newspapers often have online sites/versions...

By the way: you two brothers? or just friends?

Hi everyone,

Going by the following news reports, Sanjay does seem to be correct.

1) Real estate price will plummet
http://www.dnaindia.com/report.asp?NewsID=1060433

2) How will the new Housing Policy benefit buyers?

http://www.moneycontrol.com/india/ne...article/248753


However its important to remember that "property prices coming down" and "property actually becoming affordable" are two different things.

It has been seen that when prices are brought down by artificial means (through Govt. orders), it just increases the Black money component in the property price. This only serves to make buying property more unaffordable for the common man as he cannot get housing loan for the black money component of the property price.

And Nick, friends/brothers/relatives how does it matter,
ultimately just 5 degrees of separation

Cheers,
RSN
