Government Of Maharashtra To Use No Development Zones To Develop More Affordable Housing Projects in Mumbai

It is a well know fact that staying in Mumbai can cost you a fortune, as the rate of properties in Mumbai always go high. One of the major factors that adds to this highly expensive real estate market is the mismatch ratio of high population in the city to the actual area for residential complex. To overcome this hurdle the government of Maharashtra has considered opening up land parcels under the no development zones as well as plots belonging to Indian Defence personnel in the effort to construct affordable houses in Mumbai.

As per Prakash Mehta the blueprint for affordable housing in Mumbai would be ready soon and if required they might also look into salt pan land, defence land, airports authority and BPT(Bombay Port Trust) for this mega project. The minister also stressed on the fact that there is a huge demand for affordable housing in the country’s commercial capital.

For this mega housing project, the land is spread over an area of 350 acres that would mainly focus on the eastern coast, under Bombay Port Trust’s control. According to Mehta, Maharashtra government has entered into an agreement with the Ministry of Defence that will allow land under its control in Mumbai to be used for mass housing project.

At the inauguration of MCHI's property exhibition in Mumbai he added, "For this purpose, we will be using the defence land that has been encroached upon by slum dwellers. In exchange of this, we will allot them land in other parts of Maharashtra." He encouraged developers who drew his attention to high taxes and development levies, to develop more affordable housing projects in the city.  

As per Mr Mehta, "We need 11 lakh affordable houses in Mumbai, and we would like to get your (builders') support on this. We need these houses within Mumbai and not in Mumbai Metropolitan Region. We will take care of MMR (for affordable housing), you focus on Mumbai.” He was referring to developer’s suggestion that they will be able to build affordable houses in Mumbai Metropolitan Region that includes areas such as extended suburbs of Vasai, Virar, Badlapur, Ambarnath. Mehta said he hoped to get a commitment within a month from developers to build affordable houses in Mumbai.

Five Fantastic Ways to Save Money On Your Home Loan

When you go into terms with your lender it is a long term commitment that you are going into. One should be well versed and informed about both the sides of the coin, as the key to a stress free loan term is making timely repayments. 

If you have already planned your finances in a way that you would be comfortable paying your monthly payments, then time should not haunt you. Below mentioned are some great ways that would help you purchase your own dream home as well as make sure that you have stress free loan tenure. 

• Keep A Close Eye Your CIBIL Score And CIBIL Report:

Once you start planning of buying a home for yourself, you should start keeping a close check of CIBIL Score and CIBIL Report as they play a major role in any kind of loan processing. A satisfactory score and if you have not availed any new loan or credit in past six months, ahead of applying for a home loan. 

Do make sure that all the other details in your CIBIL report are correct, so that your loan application doesn’t get stuck on account of your CIBIL score. Once you get are able to put your CIBIL together if your score goes above 750, this mean you can now go about loan shopping. 

•  Do Your Research:

This is a chance for you to get to know the ground realty and helps you gather as much knowledge as possible, which would eventually help you frame a broader picture. Once you get into doing research work all by yourself you can calculate it yourself the best home loan that there is available for you. 

With the festive season having commenced, it will not be unusual for banks to entice prospective customers with teaser rates that may lure in to leap in, but do look before you leap.

• Negotiation is a Powerful Tool For You: 

When your Loan Application gets approved on the basis of your File, CIBIL Score you would be assigned a loan officer who will be the point of contact for you till your loan is approved and get your cheque or the amount transferred into the bank account. 

While your Loan Officer would try to prove his point, but if you have done your research you would not be fooled, make sure you have availed of every professional benefit you are eligible to avail of and get as many charges waived off as possible. A high CIBIL score gives you the power to negotiate, so make sure you make optimum use of the same. 

• Pay As Much As You Can As Down Payment: 

It is very important part of having a stress free loan tenure, if you pay maximum amount of Down Payment it would eventually help you. As the interest you would be charged would be on a much less principal amount, that would not only help you reduce the span of your loan tenure but also reduce the total amount that you would repay to your lender. 

Try making as much as you can in form of down payment, even if it means stretching yourself beyond your means. 

• Pay The Same EMI Despite A Falling Interest Rate: 

With the Reserve Bank Of India surprisingly slashing the rate cut in past few days means that now even the banks would have to reduce their rate of interest as well. If you are on a floating rate of interest, it obviously means that your EMIs will be smaller and your monthly outgo will be lesser, mean while the temptation to make lower payments can indeed be attractive but it is definitely not the best option to avail for.

Ambegaon also falls within Pune corporation limits, thus indicating a good chance of getting better infrastructure compared to other areas in the outskirts.

E-Registration: A Step Towards Realty Market Transparency. The New Way That Will Make The Real Estate Back On Track

The most frequently-occurring type of disagreement in Indian real estate is land dispute. Cases range from of illicit land grabbing and illegal land sales to instances of purchase of land where no actual purchase has taken place.

E-registration has simplified the process for providing evidence of titles and facilitating transactions, and will go a long way in preventing the unlawful disposal of land. 

This online registration system effectively put paid to the various underlying problems and loopholes in the traditional land registration process, based on the Land Registration Act of 1925, which typically involves Powers of Attorney, sale or mortgage of. 


TREE OF OWNERSHIP : 

If a piece of land has been passed on for generations or has seen multiple owners over time, a proper hierarchy of land holding needs to be available so that current buyers or tenants can ascertain the exact value of land or the rent according to current market values. 

This is possible only when there is complete transparency in document verification and full disclosure of details about the property - gross carpet area, number of rooms, foundation details and wiring blueprints. 

ROLE OF A BROKER :

Does e-registration also negate the need for a real estate broker? This is a fair question. While all details of the property may be available online, this may not be enough information to make a firm investment decision. 

The question of whether a particular property, regardless of how many details are available online, makes good investment sense in light of many other options can only be answered by a knowledgeable consultant.

E-REGISTRATION PROCEDURES :

Since property in both urban and rural areas property comes under the jurisdiction of the same State Government and both types of areas are managed under a Tehsil (aka taluk or mandal) the e-registration of property (housing or commercial rental) is fairly similar. 

The process will only differ if the land is vacant or occupied (built upon). For vacant land, valuation is done at current market price while for occupied land (with built-up prope) 

BENEFITS OF E-REGISTRATION :

The usual resource challenges at Registrar offices are reduced drastically, allowing them to tend to more sensitive matters like disputes. 

-The details and documents pertaining to land records can be accessed online at any time. 

-Transparency in the registration process increases significantly, thereby also rationalizing broker fees and negating the need for bribes to officials 

-The software calculates the stamp duty.

The rate of interest may now vary between 15 and 35 basis points across the banking industry can fuel the demand which is already being stoked by the government’s programmes such as Smart Cities, Affordable Housing and Digital India with a focus on reducing the inflows into cities which are bursting at the seams.

With the reduction in interest rates by the banks has acted like a spark that the real estate market had been waiting for, with Home Loan interest rates on a slope, lenders are now more optimistic. SBI and Housing Development Finance Co which have shed their reluctance in passing on the Reserve Bank of India’s past rate cut.

New policies and initiative taken by the RBI and Indian government together like reducing the interest rates in Home Loan as well as building 100 smart cities are seen as a major step in boosting the stagnant real estate sector.

Five basics to make your Home Vastu Compliant

Vastu Shastra has now become an integral part of any construction or home interior, while the number of Vastu Experts in our country now equals to the number of cricket experts. The experts in Vastu generally tend to differ from each other on what rules or principles to follow, with this blog we have tried our level best to gather all important information one can use and what to chose and not to is at your discretion. 

Our vision is to just provide our users with information that would make your life simple and effective I just five easy ways. 

1. Pre-construction:

Before you start the construction on your plot it is advisable to perform Bhumi Pooja or the worship of mother earth, as it is done to get blessing from her and makes the beginning of the construction auspicious and marks a good start to the proceedings.

2. House Entrance:

The Entrance of your home is the first point of interaction for anyone who comes to visit, so it becomes very important that you place your entrance accordingly. The most auspicious and advisable direction for ones entrance is the East, as the sun rises from the east. This brings in positive energy and light into your Home, if you want your entrance somewhere other than East, in that case North East is also a good option.

3. Kitchen location:

The location of your Kitchen should be such that it faces the East side and when you cook you should be facing the East side. Just one important note that one should always keep in mind is that your Kitchen should not be located directly in front of the main door of the house.

4. Master Bedroom:

The Master Bedroom is the place where you spend most of your time and thus it becomes an integral part of your house. The master bedroom should be located at the South West of an East-Facing home. If you ask me I would suggest you that, if you will follow 2nd and 3rd point, you can sleep soundly, without having to let the aroma or the noise accompanying the cooking to wake you up. 

5. Toilet location:

Your toilet’s location is also a quite a vital aspect from both perspective of Vastu as well as general health and aesthetics angle. The ideal location is to be located in the North/West corner of the building or North/West corner of the rooms. If this is not possible, South East toilets are allowed. It is also recommended (and sensible, in our opinion, we might add), that the toilets, kitchen and Pooja room in the house should not be adjacent to each other.
