Supertech or no Supertech – housing market a systematic trap for buyers

News reports of real estate nowadays is making me religious. The reports about Supertech Twin Tower demolition is giving me “SPIRITUAL” feeling. If these media reports are to be believed, henceforth all the government officials will be careful in sanctioning the building plans, builders will be fearful with the law and the judiciary will be trusted as more pro-active than reactive. Isn’t it a proverbial “Ram Rajya” for the home buyers?

Will freedom from FSI lead to affordable housing for all?

Freedom is a luxury and it means different things to different set of people. The stakeholders within the built environment of the Indian real estate too have their own set of definition when it comes to what defines their freedom. While for a home buyer, freedom is to have a rent-free house of one’s own at an affordable price, for the developers the quest has been freedom from multiple bottlenecks – single window clearance, industry status, easy funding and, most importantly, FSI free developments. Track2Realty investigates whether ‘Freedom From FSI’ would be boon or bane.

Issues beyond perception behind gender inequality in real estate

Gender equality, or rather lack of it, in the business of real estate is a reality that no one would deny. Real estate by all means is a man’s world in this part of the world. Barring a few exceptions, where the wives or daughters of the developer have been given spotlight, a typical real estate enterprise doesn’t have a sizeable presence of women workforce. A Track2Realty Pan-India Survey.

Union Budget 2022-23: Unanswered questions for real estate

The Union Budget 2022-23 lacked any fresh ideas as far as the real estate in general and the housing market in particular is concerned. Most of the announcements are more or less the extension of the old schemes and roadmaps. The euphoria of the industry stakeholders ahead of the budget turned into a deafening silence in the next few hours of budget speech.

Union Budget 2022 lacked fresh ideas; “U Turn” by realty players

Tracking the sentiment is not that easy in the business of Indian real estate. There is no ideal predictive model that could assess the sentiments of both the developers as well as the buyers. The leading voices of the sector has never been very consistent with their budget wish list and the post budget customary note. The most important stakeholders, the home buyers, are more often than not completely ignored when it comes to sentiment assessment post the Union Budget.

Can Budget 2022-23 address home buyers’ job insecurity issues?

The industry data of faster recovery and record home sales conceal more than it intends to reveal. The rosy outlook fails to address the fact that this is a K-shaped recovery where a handful of large developers with sound financials have grown at the cost of the large universe of the developers. More importantly, the sales registration data doesn’t differentiate between primary market sale and distress sale in the secondary market.

“What if” buzz word of home buyers in 2022

2022 won’t be an easy year for the average Indian home buyer in terms of making a conscious decision of buying a house. The fundamentals of the market and macroeconomic outlook indicates 2022 could be even more challenging than 2021 for more than one reason. The rising input cost of construction has put a serious question mark over the feasibility of the business in a price sensitive market. Many of the developers with thin profit margins are facing a catch-22 where the input cost hike is compelling for escalation but the demand side is not ready to absorb the hike.

Evergrande and the unlearnt lessons of Indian real estate

Within the built environment of the Indian real estate there is still denial about too many parallels between the Indian and the Chinese real estate. Many even believe that the Indian economy is not that real estate dependent as the Chinese economy. Even when admitting the crisis in Indian real estate, it is diplomatically wrapped in the developer’s justification of not learning any lessons on part of the Indian developers.
