Tips to negotiate when selling your home

assethomesseo@gmail.com (Cedar Cochin) — Tue, 24 Aug 2021 23:32:00 -0700

If you are planning to sell your property, be highly cautious! Some of the biggest mistakes in property deals occur during negotiations. Properties, be it luxury flats in Kochi or flats in Trivandrum seldom sell for the initial ‘ask’ price quoted by the owner. This makes the negotiation process an integral part of the sale process. Asset Homes, eminent builders of flats in Kochi and flats in Trivandrum, offer handy tips to negotiate when selling your home. With these tips, property sellers can tackle negotiations successfully.

Be aware and in control

A seller must be aware of the latest market trends, current property values, past price trends, and prevalent market trends can help a seller plan for the negotiations. Do not reveal anything to the buyers that he may use against you, like your reasons for selling, any financial issues, or the deadline by which you intend to close the sale etc. Try maximum to avoid desperation when dealing with buyers. By doing so, the buyer may get to dictate the terms of the transaction.

Focus on the value

Try diverting the attention of the buyer to the value that the property offers instead of the price. Emphasise on the amenities on offer and how it stands against other properties in the market. It would be good if you can help the buyer to envision his life in the property and get the emotional connect.

Do not reject all offers

While selling your flat do not reject buyers right away if their offers are not to your preference. You may lose genuine buyers, instead, tell the buyers you need some time to consider their offer. Meanwhile, having several interested buyers can help create good bids which could enable you to get the highest price possible.

Avoid drastic price cuts

When your property is facing a lack of adequate responses for a long time, do not be tempted to agree to a low price just to sell off the property at the earliest. This move could make serious buyers wary about your property.

Stay polite

Respect wins over the confidence of the interested buyers. Negotiations can be stressful for both the parties and sellers are advised to not appear audacious or rude. If you stay calm, the buyer is likely to behave well too. Ultimate aim should be to get the deal through and make a good profit.

These above mentioned tips to negotiate when selling your home will help you smoothly sail through tricky negotiations. Do not hesitate to hire an experienced professional broker who can take over the process on your behalf if you do not feel confident about handling negotiations on your own.

Things to keep in mind while taking a home loan

assethomesseo@gmail.com (Cedar Cochin) — Mon, 9 Aug 2021 02:36:00 -0700

Buying a house is a remarkable achievement indeed, but the spiraling prices of the property makes it a huge investment. Without getting a home loan it takes off a huge chunk of your savings. Selecting the right home loan is vital for many of us to avoid any shockers in the future.

Read on an insight into the things to keep in mind while taking a home loan brought to you by Asset Homes, eminent builders of top-notch flats in Thrissur.

Good research

Do not go by hearsay! Take time out to do your own proper research on loan options in the market. The interest rates, processing fees, first payments, tenure and everything has to be compared. EMI home loan calculator is available online for you to check out how much you have to keep apart for paying your monthly EMIs.

Your Credit History

These days, your credit score has become all the more important! In fact, the interest rate you pay on your loan is being linked to the credit score. If you have a CIBIL score of 750 or more, you may get the best interest rates. With a cheaper loan with low interest rates, you will be able to borrow higher amounts & purchase pricier properties.

Spend conservatively

Keep a tab on your expenses during the home loan tenure. If you can spend on a budget, you could actually use it to foreclose the loan.

Floating or fixed rates

Home loans come with two types of interest rates: floating and fixed interests. Floating interest rate is linked to market rates and moves in tandem with a base rate. Whereas fixed interest remains fixed for a few months defined in the loan agreement. In many cases floating rates come out cheaper than fixed rates in the long run.

Understand foreclosure norms

RBI has banned foreclosure penalties very recently. Hence ensure you do not end up paying anything extra while foreclosing your loan.

Save up to foreclose

Try saving up money for the foreclosure of your loan. The sooner you can be free of the (EMI), the earlier you can enjoy the freedom to spend that money on other luxuries of life.

Compare processing fees

Be it for a fresh loan or for a balance transfer, you should enquire in all the banks before you finalise a home loan.

Read the documents carefully

Before you sign on the dotted line, read everything written in the loan agreement. It is highly necessary to be aware of terms and conditions.

Save for the down payment

While buying a house, every borrower has to pay some money from his own pocket called the down payment. Try to pay as much as possible as down payment as this will reduce your interest paid on the principal.

We hope that this list of things to keep in mind while taking a home loan has helped you to reach a decision. Buy flats in Thrissur built by Asset Homes and get the best deals!

Why rent agreements are usually of 11 months only

assethomesseo@gmail.com (Cedar Cochin) — Thu, 8 Apr 2021 22:21:00 -0700

So now you are ready to rent out your house and have taken on the process of drawing up a rental agreement. Before you take the leap find out how rental agreements actually work, the tenure of the agreement and other clauses. Here’s an overview of the whole process brought to you by Asset Homes, eminent builders in Kochi. Even if you avail a flat for rent in Kochi or Trivandrum, the same process applies - you have to sign the rental agreement.

Let’s check out…

What is a rent agreement?

The lease agreement or the rent agreement is a written contract between the owner of a property (the landlord) and the tenant who takes it on rent. It specifies the terms and conditions based on which the property is let out like:

Description of the property (address, type and size)
Monthly rent
Security deposit
Purpose for which property can be used (residential or commercial)
Duration of the agreement.

You can negotiate the terms and conditions but once the agreement is signed, it is binding on both the landlord and tenant. The agreement also specifies the conditions under which the agreement can be terminated.

Most rent agreements are signed for 11 months. Have you ever pondered on why most rent agreements are for a duration of 11 months? This is mostly done to avoid stamp duty and other charges. As per the Registration Act, 1908, the lease agreement registration is mandatory if the leasing tenure is more than 12 months. Stamp duty and registration fee need to be paid to register the agreement. The costs for this add up to nearly 2 - 3% of the annual rent. Apart from this comes the professional fees due to lawyers or other intermediaries in the deal. It is to avoid paying these charges that many landlords and tenants mutually agree not to register the agreements. In case you want to register a lease, the tenant and landlord can agree to share its cost. But generally what happens is, it is the tenants that have to bear the additional costs of registering and stamp duty.

A rent agreement of 11 months is a legal document and is 100% credible. It comes in handy and acts as a piece of evidence when a dispute comes up between the owner and the tenant.

Any unregistered rent agreement of more than a year's validity is not admissible in the court as a piece of evidence if any dispute occurs. A hefty penalty is also levied for the lapse in registration of the rent agreement.

The stamp paper value is also as low as Rs. 20 - Rs.100 for a rent agreement of 11 months.

If you are on the lookout for flats for rent in Kochi or flats for rent in Trivandrum this insight may help you. Knowing why rent agreements are usually of 11 months can be beneficial for first-time renters. If you would like to buy a flat contact us at Asset Homes, the best builder in Kerala.

What is the RERA Act? Impact of RERA on Indian real estate

assethomesseo@gmail.com (Cedar Cochin) — Tue, 26 Jan 2021 21:29:00 -0800

The history of real estate has been corrupted by fraudulent transactions which rested heavily in favour of the developers! The Real Estate Regulation (and Development) Act, 2016 (RERA) was enforced on May 1, 2017 to combat this scenario. The main purpose is to boost investments and create a more transparent environment for real estate transactions.

Asset Homes, eminent builders of flats in Kochi & flats in Trivandrum brings you an overview of what is RERA and its impact on Indian real estate.

RERA has transformed the real estate industry and made real estate deals more accountable and transparent. RERA aims for a more equitable and fair transaction between the sellers and the buyers. It has brought in a structured outlook to the real estate sector which has been weighed down by the intricacies of red tape. The stand of many of the Indian real estate companies who have risen to the challenge & the work put in by the regulators who have meticulously ensured the implementation of RERA should also be appreciated.

How will RERA impact the Indian real estate?

Indian real estate industry has its first regulator in RERA. The Real Estate Act makes it mandatory for each state and union territory, to form its own regulator and frame the rules that will govern the functioning of the regulator.

RERA stipulates that:

If a builder delays completing a project, the customer should be compensated. A fine of up to 10% can be imposed on the builders for a major delay. But the pandemic has changed this situation and more time has been allotted to builders for completing the project.
Abandoning projects mid-way is a punishable offence and the absconding builders can get upto 3 years of imprisonment.
Breach of sale agreement between buyers and builders is to be dealt with strictly.
Any real estate project with a total developed area exceeding 500 sq. mtrs. or more than 8 apartments proposed, must be registered.
Even the existing projects without the completion certificate (CC) or occupancy certificate (OC) need to comply with the RERA Act.
Deviations from the initial plan at the time of construction of the housing project will not be tolerated.
There cannot be pre-launches of villas or flats without requisite approvals from the local municipal or development authority.
Provision of additional protection to consumers, protecting their interests and ensuring that the delivery of the ongoing projects has become smooth.
The consumers can now settle out their disputes and differences with the developers within the stipulated time of 60 to 90 days.
The end-consumer to see all updates on the property in one platform.

RERA has played a key role in shaping the realty segment in India and has been successful in building a strong trust between the developers and buyers. Thanks to the RERA cover on projects, the Indian real estate is no longer considered a risky proposition.

The quantum and scale of real estate consumption may change forever. Office spaces shifting to sub-urban locales Many companies still allow their employees to work from home. The pandemic has led to a major shift from the densification of offices or flexi-spaces in high-rent locations to sub-urban locales paying less rents even if it means for the short term. Post-Covid the conventional workspaces should be on the path to recovery & with revised space-norms will continue to flourish. Emerging technologies like artificial intelligence, machine learning, data science and big data analytics will drive office consumption. Priority on stable real estate Initiatives like Make In India or recalibration of tax rates for start-up manufacturing companies has been flagged off with a series of reforms in India.

assethomesseo@gmail.com (Cedar Cochin) — Thu, 27 Aug 2020 23:35:00 -0700

When you are about to decorate your home, it should be eco-friendly as well! In fact choosing eco-friendly decor will be more beneficial in the long run. More and more builders in Kerala like Asset Homes are building villas in Kochi & villas in Thrissur using eco-friendly materials. Just looking at the ordinary items in your home from a different angle and this will enable you to add a handcrafted finish to your decor. Here are some simple eco-friendly decorating ideas for your home that will help reduce your carbon footprint and even save you some money along the way.

Use non-toxic paints

Be it for painting your walls or renovating a piece of furniture in your villa in Kochi or villa in Thrissur, use eco-friendly paints. They are free of volatile organic compounds or “VOCs,” which can be harmful to both the environment and to humans.

Repurpose old furniture or windows

Renovating your old stuff into new stuff is more rewarding and satisfying than buying new every time. You can repaint wooden tables to match your new decor or reupholster your old chairs to make them look brand new at less cost. Buy furniture made from reclaimed and salvaged materials. Old windows can be displayed as wall decor in your villa in Thrissur or Kochi.

Adding legs to an old suitcase can turn it into a display table. Transform an old ladder into a bookshelf giving it a fresh coat of paint. An old rug can be converted into a wall decor.

House plants

Plants bring in renewed life to any space! With their natural beauty, ambience and freshness plants bring a little of the outside into your home. Houseplants like ferns or palms can help to purify the air quality in your villa in Thrissur or Kochi. They can increase the level of oxygen as well. Plants can combat pollutants and chemicals created from materials like artificial leather in the upholstery. As indoor Plants are a less-expensive decor item that adds elegance and a fresh look to a room, they are very much popular.

Eco-friendly furnishings

Opt for furnishings made of natural fibers and dyes whenever possible like jute, organic cotton and linen. Keep a lookout for recycled/reclaimed materials as well. Often artificial materials in your furnishings can lead to allergies. It’s good to use Carpets and rugs created from natural fibres rather than VOC-filled synthetics.

Flooring

Flooring should be made of stone or wood. Instead of vinyl flooring, use wood, cement, cork or Limestone tiles.

Use nature

Wildflowers and herbs from your garden can be used to decorate rooms. Driftwood is also a wonderful alternative for using as natural planters adding shelving, for photo frames and can be DIY-ed into wall art. Just another eco-friendly decorating idea for your home!

A guide for renting a house

assethomesseo@gmail.com (Cedar Cochin) — Mon, 1 Jun 2020 02:06:00 -0700

Renting a property be it as an owner or a tenant is fraught with certain risks but to be on the safer side it’s better to keep in mind certain factors to guarantee you have a safe transaction. Rent rates and other details vary in each state & there are certain guidelines you can follow, as per the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs. The Rent Control Act passed by the Indian Government was put into force for controlling rent charges and to safeguard the tenants’ & landowners’ rights.

Here’s a guide for renting villas in Thrissur from Asset Homes, the first and only builder in Kerala to deliver 58 residential projects in just 12 years. Just read on...

1. A written rental agreement.

Before renting a villa in Thrissur, a written legal agreement between tenants and owners is a must-have to safeguard the interests of both the parties. It’s not good to settle for an oral agreement as it’s not legally binding. The owner will keep the original form and the tenants, the duplicates. Till the tenants receive a copy of the agreement, they are not obligated to pay the rent for the villa in Thrissur.

2. Property Maintenance

The tenants and the owners are jointly responsible for the maintenance of the villa in Thrissur unless the agreement specifies otherwise. As a tenant, you cannot make major renovations, or as the owner, you cannot renovate the house unless agreed upon by both parties.

When the tenants refuse to pay for the repairs they have caused, the amount can be reduced from their security deposit and if the owners refuse to pay, the amount can be deducted from the periodic rent.

3. Uninhabitable conditions

A house is considered as uninhabitable if the price of maintenance crosses 50% of the agreed rent and if the owner refuses to maintain the house, the tenant(s) are entitled to vacate their premises with a 15-day written notice to the lessor. It’s also possible to approach the local Rent Authority to intervene.

4. Damage of property

Once the tenants start to occupy the house, they remain responsible for maintaining the original conditions and in case of any damage the owner should be notified immediately.

5. No entry without prior notice

Be it for repairs or to check the conditions of the house, the owner cannot enter the rented premises without a 24-hour written notice.

6. Tenant eviction

The tenants may be asked to vacate the premises if:

They fail to pay their full rent for two consecutive months

They are encroaching upon additional property or misusing it or damaging it.

7. Death of the tenant

If the tenant passes away during the tenure, the right of tenancy for the remaining time period as per the rental agreement goes to his/her successors.

These are only a few guidelines for renting a house from Asset Homes, the best builder in Kerala for villas in Thrissur. Contact us today to know more.

How to calculate income tax of vacant property

assethomesseo@gmail.com (Cedar Cochin) — Thu, 9 Apr 2020 01:03:00 -0700

Property ownership is seen as an investment everywhere! But most people don't realize that this ownership is taxable. If you own a property like a villa in Thrissur, be it either on rent or kept vacant, you need to pay taxes to the government. If you own more than one built-up property, you are expected to pay income tax on all your properties except on the self-occupied one.

Asset Homes, reputed builders in Kerala tries to give you a run-in on:

Taxation on vacant property

The Income Tax Act, 1961 defines that income from house property is levied not on the basis of rent but on the potential of the property to yield income for the owner. The taxation is on a notional basis, which is based on the annual value of the property - the sum the property could have generated if it was let out in a year.

If the let-out property is vacant for a part of the year, the actual rent received will be the gross annual value of the property & the calculation is the same as in the case of let-out property. That means interest is deductible without any limit.

For a self-occupied property, no tax is charged but if you own more than one built-up property, you can choose which property to show as 'self-occupied'. All others are compulsorily required to be declared as rented out.

Calculating tax on vacant property

Step 1: Determine the gross annual value of the property considering these four factors:

The actual rent received on the property (not applicable if the property remains vacant throughout the year).
The municipal value of the property as determined by the local civic body.
The fair rent of the property (similar to what other properties are fetching in the same locality)
The standard rent if the property in question falls under the scope of the Rent Control Act.

Step 2: Deduct municipal taxes

Step 3: You get net annual value, also known as NAV

Step 4: Deduct standard deductions from the net annual value

Step 5: Include the result under income from house property

Now, let’s take a real example. The property was on rent for three months and vacant for the remaining nine months.

Actual rent received for three months: Rs 36,000 (Rs 12,000/month)

Municipal value of the property: Rs 90,000

Fair rent: Rs 1,40,000

Standard rent: Rs 1,20,000

Municipal taxes paid: Rs 20,000

Calculations

Gross annual value: Rs 1,20,000 (Higher of a or b)

Higher of municipal value or fair rent but limited to standard rent – Rs. 1,20,000

Actual rent received – Rs 36,000

Municipal taxes: Rs 20,000

Net annual value: Rs 1,00,000 (Rs 1,20,000-Rs 20,000)

Standard deductions: Rs 30,000 (30% of net annual value)

Net income under the head: Income from house and property: Rs 70,000

10 things that reduce the value of your home

assethomesseo@gmail.com (Cedar Cochin) — Mon, 24 Feb 2020 01:20:00 -0800

Putting up your flat for sale in Kochi? You may be expecting a good price from this sale, but many a time a flat fetches an amount far below your expectations. Asset Homes, the most reliable realty brand in Kochi, brings to you a list of 10 things that reduce the value of your home.

1. Inadequate Parking Space
Hassle-free parking is the need of the day! For buyers, the lack of adequate parking space is a big negative.

2. Bad Floor Plan
If your flat has a bad layout, small rooms and bathrooms it will reduce the value.

3. Badly in need of large-scale Renovation
Ready-to-move-in houses are very much in demand nowadays! If there is many renovations required, many buyers will steer clear of the sale.

4. Poorly maintained Property
Poorly maintained flats for sale in Kochi will slash out a considerable amount from your home’s value.

Bad Ceilings

A flat with cracked and neglected ceilings will show your house badly and might reduce your home’s worth

Peeling Paint, flashy decor

Many home buyers shy away from flats for sale in Kochi with peeling paint and decor in flashy colors.

Bad Flooring

Dull, cracked & grimy flooring can be one of the major reasons to reduce the value of your house.

An inconvenient Kitchen

Worn-out cabinets or stained sink might dampen the value of your home.

A bad Bathroom

If the bathroom in your flat for sale has outdated toilets & fixtures it will reduce a sizable chunk from your home’s value.

5. Outmoded Appliances and Fixtures
A flat with outmoded appliances and fixed gadgets needing repair may cause many prospective buyers to back off from the deal.

6. Cluttered Interiors
A flat with cluttered interiors, unclean or is dimly lit creates a negative impact on the sale.

7. Less connectivity
A flat which is located very far from educational institutions, transport hubs, shopping destinations, etc. fetches a lesser value.

8. Absence of Amenities
Flats with lesser amenities fetch lower prices. Asset Homes flats in Kakkanad are rich in amenities like Swimming Pools, Children’s play area, etc.

9. Disputes with neighbors
If there are quarrelsome neighbors, the value of your flat for sale may go down.

10. Poor Location and Neighbourhood
A home near highways or Railway tracks or Airport fetches a lesser price. Flats in Kakkanad by Asset Homes bring great appreciation as they are near all facilities and amenities for comfortable living.

Real estate trends to watch in 2020

assethomesseo@gmail.com (Cedar Cochin) — Tue, 14 Jan 2020 01:45:00 -0800

Indian real estate has been under stress for a long period and with the onset of the new year 2020, we are expecting a marked change to see better times! It is far too early to predict that normalcy will be restored for the real estate sector in 2020, some predictions could certainly be made on how the markets will behave. Here is an insight on key real estate trends to watch out for in India's housing markets in 2020 by Asset Homes leading Builders in Kochi.

Will property prices come down?

The answer to this question is No! While many builders are coping with the severe financial crisis, there isn't much of an option on reducing unit rates of apartments in Kochi. It will be hard to find cheaper homes in 2020 as in the past years.

Will consumer rights be protected in 2020?

With the implementation of RERA, we see a change in the market as builders will now be offering clean transactions. There is also hope in the justice system with justice being delivered much faster than the regular judicial system.

Will instances of project delays reduce?

Developers know that in case of project delays, they will have to compensate buyers and so the promise of early delivery of projects has come down. Asset Homes, the Kochi based builder in Kerala has come out with Mission 100 - an ambitious target of completion and delivery of 500 residential units in 100 days (1 million Sq. ft) to rejuvenate the stagnant real estate sector in Kerala. With this initiative, Asset Homes plan to complete the ongoing projects of seven residential units as well as a commercial project spread across various parts of the State between December 23rd and March 31st 2020.

Will home loan rates fall further?

With GDP growth touching an over six-year low of 4.5 per cent in Q2 FY20, many banks, haven’t been able to pass on the benefit to borrowers because of the stress in their own liquidity conditions. The RBI is expected to lower policy rates further to fuel demand and banks may offer lower interest housing loans in 2020.

Which markets would perform comparatively better?

Many housing markets in India might continue to struggle due to builder insolvency and project delay issues, markets like Hyderabad, Bangalore and Mumbai may perform better, mainly because of the demand for office spaces.

What about rental housing?

In the current real estate scenario, the rental housing segment in India, especially for apartments in Kochi, is doing better business thanks to the fact that more and more people are postponing their plans to buy a home including the co-living segment. Rental housing could become more organised if states act upon the model tenancy law launched in 2019.

Will it be a good idea to invest in a house in 2020?

It makes better sense to buy an apartment in Kochi with Asset Homes in 2020. Asset Homes is the only builder in Kochi, Kerala to receive DA2+, the highest rating of CRISIL for completing 58 projects within 12 years. Happy buying & best of luck to you!

When you think of selling your home in Kochi it’s important to take time off to spruce up your space as it can increase your home value. You can increase the value of your home with these home improvement tips from Asset Homes, reputed builders with luxury apartments for sale in Cochin.

Clean it first!

Deep cleaning and decluttering your flat or house is one of the best ways to keep your home looking its best while getting ready to sell. Make the interior of your home shine from floor to ceiling. Wipe off smudge marks on all windows, doors, and mirrors, counters and all areas inside and outside of the house.

Brighten up your home

Remove outdated curtains that may be blocking natural light & simply open up windows & clean skylights. Replace old lighting fixtures and try to update your lighting with an eye-catching chandelier or a modern ceiling fan with lights.

Landscaping for curb appeal

You can try landscaping to improve the curb appeal of your home. Clean up your yard first raking leaves, watering plants and removing weeds. Go for low-maintenance landscaping & drought-tolerant plants to cut costs & upkeep.

Replace Carpet with Wood Floors

If you have the capacity to go for wooden floors in your house or flat in Kochi instead of wall-to-wall carpeting, well and good! Hardwood flooring can get a significant return on investment, while also helping your home to sell fast.

Paint the Interior

Painting can be one of the most cost-effective home improvements. Newly painted rooms will definitely add value to your home & give a clean and updated look. Neutral colors will be best when choosing your paint, as they appeal to a large number of people.

Update Kitchen Appliances

The Kitchen is the most integral part of the home & your house will get the greatest return if you update your kitchen. Upgrading your current kitchen appliances like dishwashers, microwaves and stoves can increase the value of your home. Consider choosing stainless steel when updating your kitchen as this style is a popular look for buyers.

Check Your Electrical

When thinking of selling a healthy home electrical system is crucial. You can get professional help to check your appliances and fix any lights or outlets that don’t turn on.

Refresh Your Bathroom

When you have an outdated and boring bathroom naturally your home value will be low. If you can give your bathroom a quick refresh like upgrading fixtures (knobs and pulls), check for leaky faucets or poor drainage, consider re-grouting your tiles or installing a tile backsplash.

Remove old false Ceilings

Broken false ceilings always cause disappointment amongst potential buyers. Before showing the house get it removed first.

Staging your home for sale in Cochin can increase your home value. You can do it yourself like rearranging furniture to open up a room, hanging up artwork or even adding fresh flowers. All the best!

Gulf NRI Investments in Kerala

assethomesseo@gmail.com (Cedar Cochin) — Thu, 7 Mar 2019 01:38:00 -0800

The Gulf region has been like a magnet which attracted Malayalis from far and wide. Malayalis who had migrated from Kerala years ago and earned their bread in the Gulf are eager to invest in their home state. As Kerala is primarily a consumer state with a growing appetite for goods and services, it has been attracting investors to pump in crores of rupees into the state. Most Gulf NRI investments in Kerala are in the form of large-format retail stores, high-end hotels, residential projects and large hospitals.

Asset Senate, Kannur

The rising affluence of this southern state and the expectation that mindset towards investors is changing for the better has made this possible. In the past Kerala was notorious for its militant trade unions and frequent shutdowns. This had prompted Malayalis to flee the state to the affluent Gulf region and today the economy of Kerala has been held together by remittances from these NRI Malayalis to some extent even during the recent recession.

Asset Genesis, Kochi

Homes sales have taken a slowdown in the Kerala market in the recent times but there is no dearth of NRI investments in the Cochin city. An interesting to note indeed! In fact, every Malayali hopes for an own house in Kerala! It may not be so with their children who might have migrated to other cities. But from the bottom of his heart a true Malayali wants to stay tuned to his roots.

Asset Sovereign, Trivandrum

Kochi real estate market has taken a leap forward with the operations of the international airport. In a decade's time, the city has developed like anything right from the IT corridor, Metro rail network, Smart City to the port etc. which has added to job generation. The growth of tourism and hospitality industry has also led to more real estate investment. Many educational institutions and medical facilities have mushroomed across the city & there has been a constant flow of people migrating into Kochi, from other areas of Kerala and other neighbouring states. Many builders in Kochi have launched luxury flats for sale in Kochi keeping in mind the rising need for accommodation in Kochi.

Asset Sunny Days, Trivandrum

Nowadays apartment culture is fast catching up with people but the love for villas, bungalows and mansions have not totally gone. In areas like Pathanamthitta, Kottayam, Tiruvalla, Chengannur and Changanassery among others, people are strongly rooted to one's ancestral land. But most settlers go in for either renovating their ancestral homes or mostly villas. But the new generation crowd often go in for apartment units.

How do appraisers determine home value?

assethomesseo@gmail.com (Cedar Cochin) — Wed, 23 Jan 2019 02:06:00 -0800

Ever wondered what your house or a house you might buy is really worth? Lenders require an appraisal before they’ll approve a loan. As a property owner, you can always hire an appraiser to estimate your home value at any time which will help you to be better prepared when you need to buy, sell, refinance or tap into your home’s equity. Let’s see how appraisers determine the home value of flats in Kochi.

Doing a walk-through of the house is one way Home appraisers generally value a house. Afterwards, the "Sales comparison approach" & the "cost approach” methods are mostly used to evaluate a house.

The Walk-Through

Home appraisers when valuing homes consider the home's size, layout and how well it has been maintained. The appraiser inspects the inside and outside of the home & also notes amenities and upgrades that add value. The overall structure and the materials used to construct the home are

assessed for any signs of disrepair like cracks or water damage. Surrounding properties and recent sales of similar homes are also checked.

Interior

A clean, well-maintained home has better value than a cluttered one! Staging the home for appraisal can dramatically increase its value. The appraiser considers the square footage, bedrooms, building materials, flooring, light fixtures, windows, and doors.

Amenities

For luxury apartments in Kochi , amenities are a big plus! All the little extras - Central air conditioning, Smoke detectors, Security systems, Swimming Pool, Health Club etc. can increase the market value.

Upgrades

Considering flats for sale in Kerala , New Kitchen cabinets, Appliances, Countertops & recently remodeled bathrooms are major upgrades that can dramatically raise a home's price!

Home Valuation Methods

After the walk-through, the home appraiser will assign a final value to the home after analysis with these appraisal methods.

Sales Comparison Approach

A comparison with similar homes that have recently sold in surrounding neighborhoods is used to determine the market value of a home. As no two houses are exactly similar, the appraiser factors in price adjustments for all the differences with the house being appraised. If Kitchen countertops like

Granite & Laminate are compared the appraiser subtracts the value of the granite from the subject property's total value. Based on differences in lot size, amenities, fixtures, appliances, finishes, and overall upkeep, the appraiser makes adjustments for several comparisons, raising or lowering value.

Cost Approach

This approach includes the cost of replacing the entire home using local construction materials and labour is calculated using the following steps.

Things to be considered:

The value of the lot & cost of reproducing the home.
Age and condition of home to calculate depreciation.
Depreciation figure subtracted from the total replacement cost of the new structure.
Add any external improvements like pools, landscaping etc...
Add the lot value to the total value of improvements and depreciated value to arrive at an accurate replacement cost.

Now that you know how appraisers determine the home value of flats in Kerala, get going & upgrade your home & raise its market value! Good luck!

As generations have gone by the layout of a house has changed in years and contemporary innovations have made a huge difference in how a Kitchen adds perfection to the living space. The modern kitchen is now an adaptation of how each family would like to have their personal ideas indulged into their house. As most of the people now have resorted to flats for their stay, they have turned on to what makes the style of the Kitchen more convenient and comfortable for cooking. The same is being followed at Kerala, but with a pinch of traditional touch to it. The flats in Kochi are now providing the people with a kitchen that has the trends that have been provided as below.

To have a smart kitchen is what most of the luxury people seek when they think of the kitchen in their dream house. All the appliances that are installed in a kitchen now have sensors that let the people know when they are running out of groceries. Technology has paced up to a level that has increased the comfort of the people while in the kitchen. People are also open to an array of variety from which they get to choose what they want from amongst which one is regarding the colour of the cabinets. Storage is an important part of kitchen and cabinets are essentials that most of them seek in perfection. When it comes to the colours of the cabinets, people have their own ideas but most of them prefer white cabinets as it is easy to spot dirt and clean it as and when required. The dark colours hide dust and hence cause inconvenience in a kitchen

There are another bunch of people who prefer to keep the storage space open without cabins as they think it's high maintenance and open cabins always are more easy to use. It is speculated that smart refrigerators that remind the people to fill in groceries and necessary things are bound to reach the market which is indeed expected to change the entire outlook of the modern kitchen. Multipurpose kitchens that intend various functions are going to open to the inmates the house, comfort at its topmost level. While personal choice is what decorates the kitchen, adding luxury entirely depends on the latest kitchen appliances and cookware and on deciding the kitchen trend that the people want to follow, they can choose the rest of them accordingly.

Amidst all this, the people nowadays also like to have kitchens in which they can let in their pets as well. A corner of the kitchen is often transformed into a pet space where they can be fed or left while cooking. Everything in the kitchen is pet-proofed so that there they do not harm themselves while in the kitchen. Even though everyone doesn't require everything, some people prefer to have some of these unique trends installed in their kitchen which can be done perfectly after a quick and clear planning is done about it.

Doubling The Investments The Right Way: NRI's Stand Firm On Real Estate Business.

assethomesseo@gmail.com (Cedar Cochin) — Wed, 6 Jun 2018 00:35:00 -0700

The reality of real estate has always been crystal clear where everyone makes investments with the hope of a potential capital gain that may come in the future. And as far as Kerala is concerned, NRI population is way ahead who also believe that land is the best investment that can be made any day. The property market of Kerala had dimmed due to the change in economic conditions that the NRI's had to face in recent times. But the situation has been reverting where real estate is emerging to be the fastest growing sector in Kerala. The change that has come up is the addition that flats and apartments have made in the property investment.

The development pace of Kerala has been high and all the districts have been catching up with the same where we get to see high-end investors partnering in building modern flats and apartments in the state. The NRI's also tend to partner along with the best builders in Kerala where the main motive is to better the experience of providing the best output. Taking the example of the district of Cochin, the place has been in its peak demand that has never gone back due to the modernization that the place has been undergoing. The purchase of a property in the place is sure to yield the best profit to the investors where they can have 100 percent assurance of making a good deal from their investment done rightly which is also why the builders in Cochin partner to provide the best to the people.

The fact is real that the place that is chosen for the investment is what denotes how profitable the investment is going to be. In case there is competitive property pricing, it shows the demand of the place and the development that the place is undergoing. The trend that real estate has shown has also been changing in a matter of a minute as projects like smart city brought to places like Kochi. An investment that is done wisely turns fruitful when they are provided with the backup of receiving something more than intended from it. NRI's also keep a close check on the stability that the economy is having in order to make sure that a boost in real estate business bestows on them. Being one of the fastest growing states, Kerala is bound to make the best financial returns through real estate.

In short, Kerala is brimming with an array of builders who are on the verge of providing the best opportunity of purchase to the NRI's as well as to the others. More than long-term dealings, people tend to make it all quick by fastening the criterion of real estate. Kerala is always at a benefit on the fact that the high number of NRI's have helped the place big time in its economic development. The shaky economic condition of the Middle East and the other countries is the biggest stumbling block that may come up on the NRI's any time, due to which investments serve them the best at the rough times.
