Track2Realty Exclusive: According to a recent data, there are over 100 million unsold inventories in the market and the developers are waiting to liquidate them. No wonder, it is attracting the brokers into group buying options. Property broker Agni Properties also added group buying to its portfolio in July 2011.
Track2Realty Exclusive: Many believe the current level of housing inventory is limited and hence many of the companies are launching their projects in phases. The current spate of launches in Mumbai has opened up an inventory of 5,000 plus premium residential apartments aggregating Rs 7,200 crore at market average of Rs 12,000 per sq ft. A majority of the inventory on offer is for the premium residential segment.

Only by doing so can they maintain the kind of churn that makes the real estate development business profitable.
Track2Realty: The Association of Bhopal Realtors (ABR) has recently joined National Association of Realtors of India (NAR India) as its member. NAR India is the credible voice of realtors in India.

After Track2Realty reported that how real estate developers are blatantly violating the ban on pre-launch schemes as advised by the Supreme Court, the Haryana Government has now decided to crack down against the erring realty companies. Many established realty companies and new players in the fray are illegally offering residential projects before acquiring the required license, and in some cases, even without a land in blatant violation of warnings by the authority.
Money generated through illegal means is laundered through various means including real estate and election campaigns in India, a report of the US State Department has said.
“Supertech invites you to invest in a pre-launch project at an attractive discount,” this SMS has been sent at least 5 times within a week. The bulk SMS, however, fails to acknowledge that many of these unsolicited messages are being delivered to the wrong recipients, including media, in front of whom most of the developers deny to pre-launch the projects any more. As a matter of fact, ever since Supreme Court came down heavily on the pre-launch offer of the developers, various states including Haryana have banned such offers.
One can also ask the broker about his networks by enquiring about all the areas where he practices. A qualified broker will be able to tap a wide network of other brokers, builders and individuals in a short time. One should check with the broker if he is an authorized agent for any developer.
