How Should You Take Advantage of Real Estate Amenities?



There are many housing communities and builders who offer a wide range of extra privileges in the area and for the individual homes as well. At times, these real estate amenities can give you an added advantage because they are options you will not have to pay for later. Here, you should pay close attention to how well they work.

Some very important amenities that needs a check are – 

Swimming Pools
If there is a swimming pool, and of course there will be! Then you need to walk around the entire pool and look for cracks that may be forming or have already formed in it. In case there are in-ground pools, they may have tiles that you need to take a look at. If pools are above ground, you should check the outer rims for any leaks. Eventually pool repairs can be expensive so it’s important be sure and check them out before making a final decision.

Proper Fencing
Fences are included in the amenities list in almost all real estate properties, and checking this is just as important as anything else. Make sure the wood or steel cage fencing is of good quality and does not have any signs of wear or rot. If you are moving into an already built residence, then you may have to ask how old the fencing is and the type of materials that were used. Just like swimming pools, fencing can also be of great expensive to repair, so check them thoroughly.

Irrigation System
If there is an irrigation system that comes with your new home, you also want to take a very close look at this. Ask the seller to run the system to make sure that it works properly and that there are no areas that are broken or damaged in the system.

The Landscaping
Landscaping areas that are already set up are the important areas that you specially need to check. Most of these areas may look okay from afar or top, but up close can be a little different. Enquire about any recent home landscaping and if there were issues noticed that they came across while doing it.

As you can see, it's very important to make a final check on all amenities like the above mentioned and also of other entertainment and lifestyle amenities in your apartment before signing on the dotted line. It is advised to stay cautious and do the research ahead of time so you won't be disappointed.

It’s a good time to settle down!

We are witnessing the verbal slugfest among the government and the Opposition as well as the woes of the common man who has been a victim of hardship ever since the Modi government scrapped the higher denominations of the currency notes (Rs 500 and Rs 1,000).

Here, the banks are poised to reap the benefits in many ways. Compared to other gains, lenders are set to see their CASA(current account and savings account) ratio improve substantially with minimal effort giving them enough room to make borrowing cheaper.

Lately, nothing has changed here. As far as the interest of people to buy homes or to locate a property still continues to be very good enough. But of course, it’s a wait and watch period for the time being.

You must always know that whenever there is a talk about property prices or interest rates coming down, every buyer waits. We don't think property prices are going to crash, but having said that, most of the loans today are on a variable rate basis depending upon the lenders. So, even if the rates do come down after a couple months, the customers still get the benefit of it.

So, we assume it is a short-term phenomenon. Our need, our requirement, our (housing) shortage is inclined very much that people will not wait more than 3-4 months before they start rushing back to it.

As the RBI cuts interest rates, and if you are looking to settle at a permanent residence to live in for a longer time, then there is no time better than today. Seeing the population of our country and the rate at which urbanization is happening if you were going to be a real user of the property, then you should never ever put back your decision by years. As far as the situation speaks, we are convinced that the middle income and the lower income India has a long way to go, the sooner you buy the property the sooner you save your rent for the better.
