Uniform Builder Buyer Agreement (BBA) has been the demand of Indian home buyers for long. In the absence of it, while the home buyers were being harassed by the unscrupulous builders, the sector was at the receiving end of poor perception in the collective consciousness. Track2Realty evaluates whether a Model Builder Buyer Agreement will be a reality after the repeated interventions by the Supreme Court of India.
Post Covid, the Indian real estate is witness to a K-shape recovery where the listed & larger players are increasing their market share at the cost of smaller ones. Prima facie, what sounds like a market-linked reform, have concerns & repercussions that run much deeper. Is the current criterion of assessing a market with fiscal performance justified? Can only a handful of branded developers be the answer to India’s housing woes, questions Track2Realty.
CREDAI as a real estate industry body fails miserably time & again to gain public & policy level acceptance. Reason: Shady builders have more often than not been operating as the elected office bearers of CREDAI. The situation is all the more grave with CREDAI NCR team that believes in convince, confuse or corrupt philosophy of public, policy & media engagement. In his diary of a real estate journalist, Ravi Sinha highlights how focus on projection than perception change at the ground has been the nemesis of CREDAI in general and CREDAI NCR in particular.
It is in this backdrop that in a typical “Ravi Sinha Uncensored” tone I told a PR girl who called me for one such Press Release by one of the largest developers of Mumbai, “Listen! As a matter of principle I am not carrying any story on food distribution to construction workers. But wait! Please give my feedback to your client, “He or any other builder is not doing any charity; not worth beating its own trumpet. This is a national calamity and you are morally bound to do so. Such Press Releases only make you look really petty. You can weave this info into some other story once the dust settles and everything is normal. But glorifying humanitarian gesture at this point of time is at best Corona Tourism for Publicity which is highly deplorable.”
Bottom Line: CREDAI President Geetmber Anand takes a moral high…
CREDAI to support the academy by providing high quality training…
Gaurav Kapoor booked a flat in one of the newly launched projects of Delhi-NCR in early 2007. He was promised the flat would be ready for possession within three years with a grace period of six months. To play safe Gaurav even opted for a construction linked payment plan to the developer but six years have gone and he is yet to get his flat and every time he has approached the developer, various reasons for delay have been cited from macro economic conditions to funding woes and approval delays on part of the government agencies.
