Half BHK, Full Convenience - Real estate Blog


Singles not allowed' could very well be a gate sign at many residential societies, right below 'Beware of Dog' and 'No Parking'. Finding a clean, safe and accessible place to live has always been an uphill task for singles in India, especially women. Now, tech start-ups are coming to the rescue.



Nestaway is one such company. Founded in January this year by four graduates of the National Institute of Technology, it is an online marketplace for shared home rentals for singles in Bangalore, NCR, Pune and Hyderabad. It has given birth to the concept of half-BHKs - a bedroom shared by two people, and a common space that includes a living room and a kitchen.

"There is a trust deficit in the minds of flat owners when it comes to singles. Bachelors can't afford to rent a whole flat and owners feel they won't be able to deal with multiple tenants. This is where we come in," says Deepak Dhar, co-founder of Nestaway, which has helped find homes for 2,000 singles. The start-up is not just a property-listing platform. It furnishes bare properties and offers fully managed apartments to young working professionals at rents ranging from Rs 6,000 (twin sharing) to Rs 15,000 (solo room). From rent collection to maintenance, the company manages the property and, in turn, charges the owner 12.5% of the rent collected.







"Nestaway helped reduced the security deposit - which can go as high as 11 months' worth of rent in Bangalore- to just two months. Also, none of the PG restrictions we faced earlier with regards to guests and timings apply here," says Nandita Jain, 28, who found a 2BHK for herself and her two friends in Bangalore this April.

Another start-up, Cohostayz, is trying to do the same for the singles demographic in the Delhi-NCR area. However its properties that offer millennials a high-end living experience come at a premium. Stocked with air fryers, back and foot massagers, yoga mats, and poker, these properties come in two categories - apartments and villas. The latter typically has 10 rooms and a common lounge area which is used by the 25-odd tenants to socialize. "Villas offer a community living experience and cater to the individual who likes to have a social life outside work," says Uday Lakkar, founder of Cohostayz. The lounge offers luxuries like Playstations, pool tables, LED TVs, and reading area. The rent ranges from Rs 12,000 (twin sharing) to Rs 25,000 (solo). Both the start-ups provide Whatsapp numbers or email ids for quick resolution of issues like plumbing, security or even DTH recharges.







"The concept is very well thought through for working women and I can focus on my work here, without worrying about housekeeping, groceries, or cooking," says Santosh Agarwal, 33, who pays Rs 24,000 for a solo room in a 2BHK in Gurgaon.




But these start-ups are limited to a few cities. Most single women still run into conventional obstacles. "'Single girls will bring unknown guests and create nuisance' is a common line thrown our way," says 24-year-old Delhi resident Sneha Agarwal. It took Tania Singla and three of her friends a month to find a place in Mumbai. Even after they moved in, the problems didn't stop. "I was once summoned to a 'society security meeting' where I was told that my coming back at 2am wouldn't work. How does it endanger their security or culture if I work late?" says 25-year-old Singla.

Bank lending to real estate slows down

As the real estate sector continues to struggle with rising inventory and threats of a price crash in certain pockets,banks have also reduced lending to the commercial real estate sector.

According to Reserve Bank of India (RBI) data, between May 30, 2014, and May 29, 2015, lending to commercial real estate business grew at 7.5 per cent whereas in the corresponding period a year ago it grew at 17.8 per cent.

Bankers said the general slowdown in the economy coupled with the challenges in the real estate sector had led to slower lending. “General economic activity has been relatively low and that holds true for even commercial real estate business. Apart from this, there have also been concerns on the quality of projects which have been lower. So it is a combination of the risk appetite and also lower demand,” explained Jaideep Iyer, group president-financial management of YES Bank.

Sky High WOES
In FY15, credit to the sector grew at the slowest pace in the past 17 years, at only 9.52 per cent.

“Usually in India, lending to real estate grows much faster than overall bank credit growth… RBI data suggest the banking system seems to have turned the tap off for property developers over the past year. This has, in turn, made developers either stop construction or cut prices,” said a recent Ambit report on the real estate sector.

Commercial real estate has a higher risk weighted asset, therefore lenders are also more stringent about lending to this sector. The risk weight on the commercial real estate sector is at 100 per cent and is the higher when compared with the residential sector (under commercial) or on loans given to individuals.

Ashutosh Khajuria, executive director, Federal Bank, said considering the demand and the supply situation in the country, even banks have become cautious on lending to the real estate sector as a whole. “Before lending, banks are checking more cautiously on the real estate company, the project in the works and the viability of it. Therefore, the overall lending has come off a bit,” he added.

Experts say, considering the lending squeeze, developers have either stopped construction — which has led to an increase in unfinished product — or have cut prices.

“Data from property research houses suggest that regions like Mumbai and Delhi would take as many as 11-14 quarters to clear the existing inventory. Real estate brokers say that the time taken to clear the inventories in a healthy real estate market should be around four-six quarters,” added the Ambit report.

Faultlines in realty- The Tribune

Immediately after the earthquake in Nepal last week a builder sent a group WhatsApp message saying: “Our project in Noida is NCR’s first and only earthquake- resistant structure with seismic zone V compliance approved by IIT Bombay. Possession next month.”
Well, hard as it is to swallow the blatant opportunism in the face of such a tragedy, the message also brings forth the lack of awareness about proper building norms in this regard. If the sincerity of the real estate developers in this part of the world is that high then ideally they should incorporate the safety techniques used in their project in their marketing brochures.
The missing code?
Looking at the devastation caused in Nepal last week one is forced to think how safe our multi-stored buildings are actually. Are we living in virtual house of cards or a stringent code is being followed to make buildings stronger. After a massive earthquake it is but natural to wonder if it’s possible to build an earthquake-proof building? The answer is yes and no. “There are of course, engineering techniques that can be used to create a very sound structure that will endure a modest or even a strong quake. However, during a very strong earthquake, even the best engineered building may suffer severe damage,” says Dr. Chandra , a noted Civil Engineer working for National Institute of Disaster Management (NIDM).
According to NIDM, over 90 per cent of our so-called Reinforced Framed Buildings across India are vulnerable to any kind of natural disaster. “The construction process of most of these go unchecked. We are moving at a tremendous pace and most of the ongoing constructions are not following any guidelines,” claims Prof. Anil Dewan of School of Planning and Architecture.
The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) — the national standard body of India— is supposed to monitor construction standards and ensure that the builders are complying with the different provisions of the building code.
According to BIS about 85 per cent area of the country is vulnerable to one or multiple disasters and about 57 per cent area, including the capital of the country, falls in high seismic zone.
Disaster prevention involves engineering intervention in buildings and structures to make them strong enough to withstand the impact of an earthquake or to impose restrictions on land use so that human casualities in case of such a disaster can be ministered.
Though the National Building Code (NBC) of India that mostly talks about the fire and life safety, has also introduced a clause to restrict the use of foundations vulnerable to differential settlements in severe seismic zones, it is not intended to lay down regulations that will be mandatory for builders to follow. The NBC Code only says that it “has been endeavored to ensure that as far as possible structures are able to respond, without structural damage to shocks of moderate intensities and without total collapse to shocks of heavy intensities.”
The larger question is whether this is enough. The residents of Gurgaon staying on 18th floor or higher height do not think so. “If a high intensity earthquake in Nepal could sway my apartment then what will happen if we have one in Delhi”, asks Gaurav Chaudhry, a resident of Gurgaon.
Claims and reality
In terms of a reality check, most of the high-rise projects in cities like Mumbai and Delhi are being designed to withstand a tremblor of a certain intensity. However, these intensities may vary as per the corresponding seismic zone of a particular area. The developers point out that the buildings that are designed worldwide are earthquake-resistant but not earthquake-proof.
From a policy standpoint, across the Indian cities there is no provision for structural safety and stability of existing buildings; there is no specified law for the redevelopment of old and dilapidated buildings. BIS has published a number of codes to ensure proper quantity of reinforcement and ductile detailing to achieve the desired level of earthquake-resistance.
Compliance to these codes and their periodic checking by the agencies concerned, however, is a missing link. Structural engineers suggest that officials from respective authority should conduct periodic checks of all under-construction buildings to ensure that right building techniques are employed by builders and issue safe-structure certificates to buildings.
Grading the buildings on the structural level safety should also be mandatory to enhance buyers’ confidence.
The developers, meanwhile, would like us to believe that their projects are designed to be earthquake-resistant in all possible manners with the best structural engineers and designers of the country.
Mohit Goel, CEO of Omaxe admits that the recent earthquake in Nepal and the damage to life and property that it inflicted is a serious cause of concern for those in Delhi NCR. He, however, maintains the assumption that all buildings will be impacted would be an over statement.
Rattan Hawelia, Chairman & Founder, Hawelia Group, points out that the construction industry has gone through major technological advancement. Of late, building design, especially for high rise and special buildings, has become a complex process, that integrates many skills, products and techniques into its system.
Structural engineers, however, have a different take. Dr Rajeev Dua, Head of Optimization Consultants recommends that developers should join hands with the best names of structural engineers from around the globe that have a proven track record and required knowledge in designing of high-rise buildings. Right from the soil investigation and wind stability conditions to the apt foundation design as per the height and shape of the building, these high rise structures can be made capable of bearing all types of loads and deflections in case of an earthquake.
The spotlight has suddenly been on the need for stronger buildings that can weather the natural calamity. However, there is no standardized mechanism of due diligence for the buyers today to understand whether their high rise building is actually earthquake proof or not. Though ideally the recent calamity should have resulted in some learning for the Indian real estate, the focus of the developers is yet on lip service than on preventive and corrective measures. Samir Jasuja, head Prop Equity, has a suggestion for all the would be buyers of flats in residential and commercial buildings. They should ask realty firms whether they constructed earthquake resistant buildings. As that is not enough, they should talk to engineers of realty firms in this regard.
Globally, in Japan which is one of the most earthquake-prone country there has been extensive use of rubber padding and roller in foundationsso that in case of an earthquake the building could roll up to 3 meters instead of bending which often leads to crack or collapse. This, however, seems to be too far fetched in a country where the law book is silent about fixing responsibility. So no one knows who is to blame — the architect, engineer or the developer — in case a building collapses in an earthquake the onus of responsibility will be.
Test of strength
Experts say that engineers design buildings to withstand as much sideways motion as possible in order to minimise damage to the structure and give the occupants time to get out safely. Buildings are basically designed to support a vertical load in order to support the walls, roof and all the stuff inside to keep them standing. Earthquakes present a lateral, or sideways, load to the building structure that is a bit more complicated to account for. One way to make a simple structure more resistant to these lateral forces is to tie the walls, floor, roof, and foundations into a rigid box that holds together when shaken by a quake.
The most dangerous building construction, from an earthquake point of view, is unenforced brick or concrete block. Generally, this type of construction has walls that are made of bricks stacked on top of each other and held together with mortar. The roof is laid across the top. The weight of the roof is carried straight down through the wall to the foundation. When this type of construction is subject to a lateral force from an earthquake the walls tip over or crumble and the roof caves in like a pack of cards.
Based on the 2011 Census, the Technology Building Council categorized the type of buildings in India — bricks, concrete, bamboo, etc. Among these, only 2.6 per cent of our building stock is reinforcement-framed. Of these, as many as 90 per cent are vulnerable to damages as these are unauthorized constructions. Of the total number of buildings, 45 per cent are made of bricks without pillars, which are highly vulnerable to earthquake.

This is very nice view on earthquake and you understand what is basci points you must be care when you want to build a home.

Know your dream home is good or not ?

"Life is struggle" it is very simple logic but when we stating living and we realized that it is not only struggle, it is puzzle and you can solved this so easy. Because every moments it is change.  
So now we come to the points we are taking about how do we know that home we are planing for it is good or not ?



Legal paper : It's the most important  to check before buying your dream home otherwise you will be in trouble. In every city there are local government bodies authorized to approve maps of any building. And it is your responsibility that you must be checked before buy .

Builder Goodwill: It is very simple and easy way to find the best and nice builder of your area. Because goodwill not comes few days or months , it is a long process, so it is very important before buy your home know about the builder goodwill. 

 Work Status: Before all sign on the paper you must be talk about the all type of your question. it is your last change for asking all type of this question. By seeing different projects you will be in a better position to make judgement about Quality, Facilities and Price.

Project Location with future growth:  My This is one of the most and important points because we all know that Home is not changed so fast and easy and it is your best gift to your son. And they says in future it is made by father So it is very need that you must be guess that  after some years you might realize that you have done the mistake by selecting Residential Project located on the main road because of increased traffic sound and commercial activities. Remember we are buying home not office. While selecting any location you should check for basic facilities like grocery store, schools, hospitals, public transport , they all basic need and you can not avid them.

Loan Facility: In India all every people have money so you must be see that your builder provide a bank loan or not . Because all the builder know that for a middle class family it is very hard task . For this they have ti up with some bank where you can find your bank loan so early. 

Price :It is base of your home because we all want to min money with mix facilities. So have compare to price of your flats and home from other builders. 

This all inforamtion for save some trouble before buy your home.
