ABA Corp sets tone for Best Practices in Greater Noida West

Driving down the Noida-Greater Noida property market in general and the Greater Noida West, better known as Noida Extension in popular parlance, could be a delightful rendezvous for any news hungry journalist. Which scribe won’t want a dose of controversy and sensationalism for filing a juicy story? And this market has it all – housing project delays, defaults, cheating, harassment, builders’ high handedness, blatant lies with oozing confidence, and last but not the least, consumer protest all around.

Finding a genuine real estate developer, in today’s crowded space

Residential markets such as Bengaluru, Chennai, Kolkata, Delhi and more have witnessed price corrections ranging from 1%-2.3% during the quarter, suggesting the solidity of the housing sector even in difficult times. However, with this price increase, you will still come across certain real estate brands offering discounts and continuing to sell at the previous cost of construction. In such a scenario, how does one choose the real estate player who is honest and fair in his dealings? My simple answer would be go with a genuine brand but how does one identify what is genuine.

India’s office space leasing stands at 10.9 million sq feet across top 6 cities: Savills India

Legal due diligence in property purchase avoids future litigation: Advocate Devesh Ratan

Devesh Ratan: A lawyer who is exclusively representing you will only look at your interest. A broker has to charge his brokerage from both the parties; he will never say this property has this deficiency, or the papers that you are signing is fixing your liability. For example, many developers put it in their Agreement Form that if they delay the project they will only pay INR 5 but if the buyer delays the payment he has to pay at the rate of 10-15. Only a lawyer can tell you this kind of liability is wrong and it should be negotiated upon.

Professionals with real estate background (both working as well as those who already quit) maintain that ‘Involvement’ is the key career objective nowadays but real estate companies never provide challenging work that inspires and realises results. What professionals demand is ‘Respect’ but the management hardly acknowledge the talent and contribution of each employee.
