The Builders of the Burj Dubai/Burj Kalifa are now coming to Gurgaon to build one of the Tallest Residential Towers (61 Storey Tall) in Gurgaon. This of course is likely to change the way Gurgaon has been witnessing real estate developments so far. Gurgaon may soon be called the city of sky scrappers rather than being called the Millennium City. With this High Rise development and many other such high rise developments under planning, Gurgaon is surely looking at a face lift that is likely to change the skyline of Gurgaon.

This particular development is going to be called Revanta and is going to be developed by Raheja Developers and will be constructed by Arabtec (Company which built Burj Dubai). The project is a combination of mid rise exquisite floors being called “Tapas” and three high rise towers joined together via Sky Bridges which are likely to be 61 storey tall being called “The Surya Towers”.

Apart from this, the developers have signed up with “Amatrra”, the best spa in the country to manage the club house and the apartments within the community. Which adds more flair to this luxurious lifestyle community in the making.

The apartments are likely to come in two variants, one of course is the regular finish apartments and then the upgrade is being called the “Amatrra Residences”, which are going to have much superior finish quality along with some very interesting features like home automation and iPad controlled smart homes.

All apartments come with Imported Modular Kitchen and imported flooring with of course the variation in quality between the two variants.

Investing into real estate is both an art and science. Today’s corporate investor is so engrossed in his or her own work enviornment that he or she is just not willing to take additional pressure to research on where to invest. This is where our expertise comes into play. What Location to choose? What Builder to go with? Where will my money be secure? Where will my investment grow the most? All these questions, we have tried to answer here, we hope that these insights will help bring clarity of thought and action.

We have taken into consideration the following critical elements, which we believe are the basis of a sound investment strategy:

• Location – Today, there is no better location to invest in Gurgaon apart from Golf Course Extension and the surrounding areas. There are some interesting reasons for this:

1. This Area falls under the New Master Plan of Gurgaon, Within the new master plan, all the roads are planned to be much wider than the existing Dlf that you see today.
2. Most of the Developments in this area are up market, thus in times to come, this area will become to be recognized as an up market area to reckon with.
3. Access – The Golf Course Extension is well connected with the Golf Course Road (1 minute drive), The NH-8 (10 Minute Drive), Mehrauli Road (10 Minute Drive). Thus access to and from Delhi can be considered as good.
4. Future Infrastructural Developments – The Golf Course Extn. has been declared as a National Highway, which means that this stretch of road is going to be maintained by the NHAI (National Highways Authority of India), which in turn converts into better maintenance of this road. The Phase II of Metro Connectivity is planned along this road, which would mean that your property would be just about 5 minute drive from the Metro Station. The Faridabad Road (which also connects areas like Chattarpur in South Delhi) is also planned to be connected directly to this road.

• Developer Credentials – We at TrustBanq are focused on representing only the top rung of developers, the logic is simple, we do not want our clients to lose their hard earned money to unethical developers, more over, we believe that there is a minimum standard of delivery that the good developers maintain. Even though today, some of these developers may not have in house construction capabilities, however, they insist on doing business with the likes of L&T, Shahporji Palonji and the likes, which translates to better and timely delivery of the product.

• Livability – More often than not, there is always that one element of using the asset as a future home, it is recommended that whenever you are considering acquiring an asset for investment purposes, you yourself should be sold on the usability of the asset. The thought behind is “If you like it, chances are that your prospective Buyer will like it too”.

• Appreciation – We strongly believe that your investment in any of the listed projects on the Golf Course Extension Road, will delivery reasonably good appreciation over the next 3 years time frame, and the area has the potential to touch Rs. 12,000 to Rs. 14,000 per sq.ft. on residential properties in times to come.

• Security of Your Money – While we invest into real estate for the purpose of appreciation, it is important to keep in mind the security of the basic capital, by going ahead with these credible developers, we eliminate all other factors except for the market trends and behavior, which no one has control over.

It is interesting to note that what we have been talking about for over a year now is now also ratified by other Industry Experts too. Yesterdays HT Estates covered an article about the top 10 destinations to invest in Indian Real Estate and confirmed Golf Course Extension to be amongst the top 3 destinations to invest in.

So, what makes this specific location the most sought after not only from the city perspective but also from the country’s perspective.

Here is our analysis of this Hot New Destination:

The Golf Course Extn. Road (also called the Southern Periphery Road or SPR) is the road that connects the existing Golf Course Road to the Sohna Road presently, this road is planned to extend and meet the NH-8 near Haldirams. Considering the fact that the existing Golf Course Road is one of the most sought after locations for Premium Housing in Gurgaon and for the Luxury Homes in Gurgaon. Now, there is not much land available on this road, so by default, just like any other city, the next area closest to the CBD becomes the preferred destination and Golf Course Extension Road fits in absolutely well.

Another most important reason is the quality of proposed developments and the quality of developers with large land holdings in this area. Amongst some of the better developers of real estate in India, we have Ireo with major presence on this road, with more than 500 acres of land being with Ireo where the Ireo City is shaping up and smaller chunks with other key developers like Pioneer Urban, Emaar MGF and the likes.

All these developers are only bringing in High Quality Residential Apartments with top of the line features both indoors and outdoors. In our analysis, this area is actually poised to change the epicentre of Gurgaon. The reason is simple and logical, once these new upmarket developments start taking shape, this area is going to become the most sought after residential estate in Gurgaon. Its almost like saying that this area is poised to become what “South Delhi” is for Delhi.

Another interesting fact is that unlike the existing developments of Gurgaon, which were more unplanned, these new sectors along the Golf Course Extension Road are better planned, with earmarked spaces for Commercial, Residential and Retail. Apart from this the road width has been revised for these new sectors and the internal sector roads are now going to be much broader than the existing Dlf or Gurgaon area as we see.

TrustVantage:

While each developer will always talk the positive side of their projects and products and would like to sell their products, being a Trustbanq Customer you are eligible for the “TrustVantage” one of the key benefits of working with us is that you get a comparison of various projects from A Class Developers in the vicinity of your choice right on your desk.

Unlike a presentation from a developer, which obviously would be skewed towards their product and would obviously not be “neutral advice”, with TrustVantage you not only get the macro information on the Gurgaon Master Plan including what areas are likely to grow faster and which areas may lag behind, what products are Hot & which ones are Not, complete thread bare analysis of each product including the good, bad and the ugly, but also get honest comparisons on various projects in the specified budget.

Apart from this, being an organized real estate marketing organization, you do get the advantage of being updated on a regular basis on the market trends, new launches and of course with the status of your investment.

So, send us a query and realize the full potential of your money by way of knowledge based investing.

Just send us a response via comments and our professionals will be happy to assist you, you can be sure, that we do not misuse your information and neither do we believe in unsolicited calls and privacy invasion.

BROKERS: THE GOOD,THE BAD & THE UGLY

Communication by property brokers is sometimes misleading – many a times,they over-commit and underplay critical information.NAMRATA KOHLI gives some guidelines to identify a good broker

A domestic helps agent doubles as a property dealer.One fine day,a ration shopkeeper switches jobs to become a property dealer as there is a ‘huge’ profit involved in this sector as opposed to his earlier calling.With no licensing authority in the realty sector or educational qualifications required for being a property broker in India,it has become a free-for-all in the industry,with investors,housewives,retired persons and individuals dabbling in property transactions.
The problem for a genuine home buyer becomes compounded as he is not able to tell a good broker from an incompetent one.Most buyers and sellers talk to several brokers to figure out who is better and ultimately they base their judgment on that gut feeling or references to dealers from relatives,friends or colleagues.References play a vital role in evaluating a broker and his or her abilities.Personal referrals from friends and family could be the most valuable thing – probably a must…read more

What to Expect from the Experts?

Opportunity Evaluation

Evaluating Deliverables for New Real Estate Opportunities is our job !!

Opportunity Evaluation is probably one of the most critical elements that helps define, whether your investment is going into the right asset or not. At Trustbanq too, this is one of the most important and crucial task for us. With new opportunities being presented almost on a weekly basis, it does tend to get confusing, especially, if you are located miles away from home.

Typically, one would fall back on advice from relatives and friends in the city to guide you on a particular investment opportunity, but the question is, Are they the experts on the subject? Do they have the insights into the Developers? Do they see things from your perspective? A lot of people we know, who did end up owning real estate on recommendations of friends and family back home, did not end up with the right asset.

The key is to… ASK THE EXPERTS !! At Trustbanq, While we continue to dispense information about the carefully selected few projects which we believe make the best investment sense for our clients, at the same time we do help clients understand the “WHY” angle of the evaluation process. The primary reason and the need to do this is to make sure that our clients know what they should expect from the investment with minimal surprises and in the process, help them to zero in on The Right Investment @ The Right Valuation, which of course is the only way forward for achieving the client’s vision. As an organization, we work closely with clients, who count on us for a threadbare analysis of any new real estate opportunity that comes by, regardless of whether Trustbanq is marketing it or not.

This way,the discussion remains as candid as possible and we are able to brain storm a new opportunity together to achieve our desired goal.

Developer Neutral Advise

One Rare Commodity !!

Developer Neutral Advise is difficult to get, the reason is simple “Greed”. “Greed” alone is not just the only factor that is a deterrent in getting the right advise in real estate investing in gurgaon, there are other factors as well, “Ignorance” being another one, however, Greed takes the lead.

While the developer’s job is to churn out projects to earn profits from any development. There is a thin line between “Earning the Money” vs. “Money for Nothing”. In a market place, where there is little or no control of any neutral governing agency, which can rate developers and projects on a specific scale, it is difficult for an investor to just invest because the broker is saying so.

Lets first understand the difference between “Earning the Money” and “Money for Nothing”. More often than not, investors have been investing into Gurgaon just because their broker has suggested them, while this works perfectly well, when the market is on the rise, should the tables turn, the brokers are not to be found and if found, do not have a reasonable explanation for the investment having stuck up in the wrong place. So, what was the route cause for the broker to pitch in that investment to you – Don’t think that is a tough one !! Of course “Greed”. On the other hand, you work with a professional outfit, which helps you make a prudent choice by taking you through the entire Master-Plan of the City, working with you to logically help you choose the location first, then helps you logically choose the developer and then the project. After all, it is your money !! The Choice is also yours !!

The Question remains, who is likely to provide you with a “Developer Neutral” advise? Who is likely to provide you with “Project Neutral” advise? The answer lies in “Knowledge & Research”. Companies and brokerage houses which are “Knowledge” driven and “Research” driven, are your best bet as a consumer, while you let them “Earn their money”, you are sure that your investment (which of course is a much larger concern) is safe and parked at the right place.

It is strange to find people getting more influenced by Discounts on projects and investments and how their investments rather than valuing the right advise on their investment, which could end up making a lot more than the discounts or on the other hand put their money in jeopardy. From an investors/buyer’s point of view, rather invest through a company which offers a macro level analysis of the city, with comparisons, insights and other critical information about the developers as well as the projects. That is the reason why clients who value services choose Trustbanq for their real estate investments. At least they can be sure about making sure that their investment is not affected by “Greed for Money”, rather they are working with an organization which likes to “Earn its Money”.

First Understand the City, Then the Project !!

First Understand the City, Then the Specific Opportunity !!

Gurgaon as a destination came up pretty much within the last 15 years.Between 2005 to 2008, the apartment quality did change a little, but not substantially, mostly the developers were capitalizing on the Boom and the Land prices going through the roof and enjoyed the fruits of that, while the consumer was still deprived of the quality of development, that he could have got on paying prices, which were being charged at that point in time.Then came along some of the international developers and started to change the market place. The products from here on, became better on deliverables, but still nowhere close to the quality of international homes, Although the Brochures and the Presentations and Communications moved faster than the actual deliverables.

The bigger question is What has Changed in the last Year or so?

Well, for starters, the market is more mature now, some of the earlier players are facing the brunt of not getting repeat customers because of the deliverables being not up to the mark in the property marketed. Thanks to some of the new International Developers entering the market, who are truly making an endeavour to change the perception of people towards developers and the deliverables. Some of them even come with a strong vision to be “The most respected developers of real estate” unlike most other developers with visions of “Becoming the Largest Real Estate Players” or becoming “The Richest Real Estate Developers”.

On the other hand, customer handling at the channel levels has come a long way too. Gone are the days, when an NRI client would keep wondering whats happening with his money that he invested in India, today, good organizations are leveraging technology to dispense information about the developments, updates and status of the real estate sold.

At Trustbanq, we help clients understand the Macro to the Micro. Starting from the basic understanding of the New Master Plan to helping choose the ideal location, which is likely to become a better location and then finally to help clients choose the ideal community that suites their lifestyle and budget to ultimately help clients choose the ideal apartment within the community based on the family needs. Once we acquire a client, it becomes our responsibility to help them keep informed on the various stages of their development and to help them understand the actual growth of their real estate, both in the physical realm as well as monetary terms.

Evaluating Deliverables for our clients is Our Job

While one is convinced about the developer’s credentials as discussed in one of the earlier posts, it boils down to evaluating the specific project in question. So, lets find out if this new project by Godrej Properties will survive the test of the experts.

To evaluate this opportunity, just like any other real estate, One of the most important factors would remain to check out the location, In Gurgaon, Godrej Property’s first project is located on the main NH-8, although there will be many more to come as time goes by as Godrej Properties is continuously evaluating good quality opportunities, we will keep this document to talk specifically about the location of this new Godrej Project.

While most of the other projects in the vicinity of NH 8 are located in the interiors, The Godrej Project is located right on the main NH 8, what this means for the discerning buyers today is that if it is for the purpose of investment, then if we go by the history of real estate, most of the properties that end up being on a main highway/broad road are the ones which fetch the highest appreciation as compared to the others which are located on the arterial roads etc. From a user’s perspective it allows the user to have a quick entry and exit to and from the community, this also helps save time, effort and resources.

While the interior locations, are likely to have traffic blockages etc and the commuters from those communities may face some problem in getting in and out from their respective communities, Godrej Project is right on the main Highway so, this snarl is definitely not there. Quick access to the Iffco Crossing via highway and you are at the metro station, zip further through the highway and you are at the Delhi International Airport. The point is that while the other communities which are located more inside, even though may be closer to the city center, will take more commuting time to reach, while the Godrej Project in Gurgaon will be a much faster access in and out.

Overall Evaluation:

The investment is likely to be fruitful, considering two things. The Location & The Godrej Promise.

Evaluating Deliverables for New Opportunities is our job

Before delving into the details of the specific project, It would be nice to evaluate the developer of the project and to go through the finer details of the background of the promoters. So, this new residential community by Godrej Properties is not really a 100% Godrej Properties venture, one needs to understand that this is a joint venture between Godrej Properties & Frontier Group. While Godrej Properties is an established brand and Frontier Group is slightly lesser known brand, it seems that the calls will primarily be taken by Godrej in this case. Godrej is likely to take the onus of Marketing & Development of the project, while Frontier Group becomes a JV partner for the reason of having the land bank at this specific location.

Godrej as we all know, has been a part of Indian Household life for almost since the beginning of Independent India, who would not have had a Godrej Refrigerator in their homes in the early seventies and still continues to be part of many homes in India. It is a brand synonymous with Quality & Stability. The two most important aspects to evaluate for any product that one buys, in this case even more important considering that we are talking about Apartments and Homes here, something in which multiple generations are likely to live in and that too for hundreds of years.

So, what has the Properties vertical of Godrej delivered so far on this vertical of housing called Godrej Properties? Well, lesser known in Northern India, but Godrej has been extremely active in some of the other key cities of India like Mumbai, Kolkata, Bangalore, Chandigarh, Mangalore, Mumbai & Pune. While the most active cities for Godrej Properties have been Mumbai & Pune, the other cities are catching up fast with more and more projects by Godrej Properties. Needless to mention that Godrej Properties is a professionally managed organization and diligent in what they intend to do, so things may take some time, but they would always be built on Solid Foundation. Some of the newer destinations for Godrej Properties are Kochi, Hyderabad & Chennai, which are being evaluated with multiple opportunities and soon, we will hear about projects by Godrej Properties in these cities too. In Mumbai and Pune, Godrej Properties that have been delivered are now homes to many happy families, and remain to be sought after properties, the credit of which of course goes out to the professional execution and management of the properties.
