Population Spurs Guwahati Real Estate
Guwahati, the capital of Assam is the most important destination of Northeast India. It is surrounded by the Seven Sister States- Nagaland, Aruncahal Pradesh, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Tripura, and Manipur. Guwahati is famous for its rich coal reserves, natural gas, oil industry and tea plantations. Being the largest city of Assam, it is the industrial, educational and commercial hub of the state.
Guwahati is located on the bank of the Brahmaputra River and is heralded as a corridor to the entrance of northeastern states of India. It is one of the most rapidly developing cities today as large scale investments in real estate in Guwahati and nearby areas are being made. The primary reason for such growth is the ever-growing population of the city. This considerable increase in population happened because:
Guwahati is the economic centre of the state and so, the most preferred destination for migrants in Assam.
The fast paced development of industrial sector attracted more number of professionals to the city. These employees then generate accommodation needs leading to rise in demand for residential property.
Guwahati is home to some very prominent educational institutions of the country like IIT and other world class colleges. Students from everywhere throng the city while resulting in higher demand for housing spaces.
Knight Frank, a leading global property consultant observes that the immense rise in population has in a way proved beneficial for Guwahati property market. Large numbers of residential units comprising individual houses, apartment buildings, etc. are developing fast in the city. High street retailing is also flourishing with various departmental stores, supermarkets and large format stand-alone stores being established. Organized retail has also been growing with apparel stores and food and beverage chains setting up their flagship stores in the city.
Though Guwahati hasnt seen an IT wave as prevalent in other cities but FMCG, insurance and financial companies have been taking interest in bringing their operations to the city. Many more are scouting for vacant land in the city to settle their presence in the city as central locations have almost reached saturation levels. The peripheral areas of the place are on the path of becoming new hotspots for real estate development. Due to such large-scale growth, hike in rates of property in Guwahati have been recorded from past few years.
The noteworthy developments among the residential projects that have shaped in the city in the residential sector include the following:
Guwahati Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA) has come up with a Games Village at Sarusajai consisting of 700 residential units.
Another project by Brahmaputra Constructions comprising 150 apartments on RG Baruah Road is another important project.
Various infrastructure development projects are under progress to develop this upcoming region of Assam. The Games Village Township would further generate commercial developments in the area. Some national level retail corporations and international brands are also expected to enter the Guwahati real estate market soon. Moreover, local property developers are building up many residential and commercial projects like Riscon Villas, Southern Retreat, Protech Park, Agrim Residency, Uttarayan Greens, Zenith Heights, The legacy, Royal Circle and many others. In addition to these, Divine Plaza in Ganeshguri, Vishal Megamart at Paltan Bazar, Shopping centre called Hub at Bhangagarh, multiplex named Dona Planet, etc. will open shortly.
Guwahati witness huge migration from around the country, especially from north eastern states. These developments are instrumental in accommodating this population and in supporting the economic growth of the city. Property in Guwahati is all set for a higher boom and comes across as an ideal time for investments in property.
[Top]How Has Chennai’s Real Estate Story Grown Over the Years
Owning a land in Chennai is a wise decision to make. Land asset is always hot property and a city like Chennai devours vacant plots of land to create architectural marvels without compromising on environmental requirements. Development of green buildings is on the rise and the modern buyer/property developers are both aware of the need for it. While the city seems to have engulfed most of the vacant plots, newer and more contemporary buildings are arriving at pivotal pockets of the city like Valasaravakkam, Mount Road and Poonamallee. These projects spell luxury, comfort and contemporary appeal. State-of-the-art buildings, well equipped with modern amenities have emerged as the demand from middle and high income groups of customers.
Epicenter of Real Estate Growth in the city
The peripheral locations that include the city’s suburban and micro-markets, on the other hand, have ample land for sale in Chennai. Also, since most of the multinational organizations including industries such as IT/ITES, automobile, manufacturing and pharmaceutical are based out of these locations, these markets are emerging as hubs of development. With more and more commercial activities increasing in these areas; the government is executing plans of large scale infrastructure development. And as several multinational organizations open doors of employment to large numbers of professionals, the inflow of migrating population has also increased considerably. Thereby, the chain effect has created demand for plots and lands for sale in the micro-markets of the city.
Real Estate Development at North and South of Chennai
South Chennai that includes OMR, ECR, GST Road, Tambaram and Perungudi accounts for more than half the demand for commercial and residential projects. These are also the places that house more than half of Chennai’s IT organizations. Heading towards the other direction, North Chennai is home to renowned automobile and manufacturing organizations. The landscape and skyline of Chengalpet, Sriperumbudur and Oragadam have changed within a very short span of time. Today, the regions are lined by large residential projects, gated communities, villas and luxury apartments, international schools, best-in-class hospitals and medical centers, shopping malls and other destinations for lifestyle living.
Not only is the development focused within the townships but the regions have by themselves undergone tremendous growth owing to large scale infrastructural development. Having a plot for sale in Chennai or a few more especially in these regions is beneficial in the short and long run. Besides infrastructure, these areas are well connected to the city and therefore commuting whenever required is not a problem. Proximity of these locations to other cities like Bangalore, Tindivanam, Pondicherry and many others is a great advantage that Chennai can offer. Besides the resident and migrant population, non-resident Indians are also showing keen interest in Chennai real estate simply because of the healthy prospects the industry has to offer.
[Top]Menorca Real Estate Prices Set For A Price Crash
A sunshine Spanish Mediterranean holiday home for many Europeans, but especially the British, has been an aspiration achieved by many since the early 1980’s, when the UK allowed the free flow of capital, and property price gains allowed many to sell up in Britain and move to Spain and her islands – Menorca for example.
A slow down of Brits buying abroad happened in the early 90’s when recession hit the country, but overall the pace of number of people buying a home and often buying a business too has been relentless.
And with a growing number of British moving abroad, the UK’s financial infrastructure followed them, with British banks setting up branches in Spain and the Spanish islands like Menorca (ironically some of the British banks have now been taken over by Spanish ones), mortgage companies tailoring products for overseas home purchase,low cost airlines providing flights to Menorca and insurance companies offering building and contents cover.
For many of the British buying in Spain, it was like Britain with sunshine.
But times have changed, Spain is flooded with unsold brand new and re-sale properties, and property prices have crashed. In Britian property prices have dropped and are expected to fall further for the next year or more.
Confidence is low – unemployment in the UK is expected to hit 3 million before it peaks, and people with some money who might ordinarily have considered buying a property abroad are often keeping it in assets where the money is easily accessible – something it’s not when tied up in a property during a recession.
And of course the financial infrastructure that supported the British buying homes and businesses in Spain and her islands is in full retreat. The banks who were lending money readily to Brits moving abroad aren’t lending much, and many of them have been bailed out with taxpayers’ money – overall a dismal picture of a once flourishing overseas property market.
So, is now a good time to buy in Spain and her islands? If you’ve always fancied an apartment or villa in glorious Menorca – is this the time to take the plunge?
Part of that answer depends upon your individual financial circumstances, but if you need to borrow to buy a second home, and if you need income from holiday rentals to sustain your new Menorca property…halve the figure you think you might achieve and re-calculate to get closer to what you might realistically get from renting out to those taking Menorca holidays in today’s market.
But if you have a surplus of cash and are ready to buy a property in Menorca – is now a good time to buy?
There’s a property glut in Spain. If property was water, Spain and her islands would be renamed Atlantis. Developers and private owners alike are more than keen to sell, and anyone who is a cash buyer won’t have to wait long before they see a bargain. But don’t necessarily buy the first property you like that seems good value.
Draw up a list of say three or four apartments or villas you have viewed and liked and put in an offer of around sixty per cent of the already discounted price, starting with your favourite one, telling the owners that the offer remains good for two weeks, and at that time you will look elsewhere. Within a couple of months you, perhaps even weeks, you could have the property you want at an amazing price, even if the owners come back with a counter offer.
One bit of advice from UK based Tribune Properties is to avoid buying a brand new property.
‘Only buy a new property in Menorca if you’re absolutely certain that the developer has the funds to finish off a development and the promised infrastructure that goes with the new development…and even then only spend what you can afford to lose. Guarantees are often useless if a developer goes bust. And just don’t buy a property under construction – the development could be mothballed for years to come – along with any deposits and staged payments already paid by a buyer.’
Their final bit of advice is not good news for Menorca property developers either, or for private re-sales.
‘If you can hold on a few months, you might find even better bargains than there are now in the autumn when the same owners who are selling now have failed to find a buyer, and at the end of the holidays season owners might be prepared to listen to offers in the hope of finally selling their Menorca property.’
[Top]Review Of Real Estate Investors Tim Mai And Lee Arnold
Real Estate Investor Tim Mai hides his intelligence behind his fun personality. He is very comfortable having fun. It’s obvious that he has a tremendous amount of knowledge about what he does. There is great quality in his experience.
When people are not overly intense it makes learning that much more fun. Tim is able to make his students feel comfortable with him.
Tim Mai teaches wholesaling, short sale investing, foreclosure investing and much more. He guides his students on how to market real estate online.
The mindset lesson on this particular day in February was “Rich People are Decisive, Poor People are Indecisive”.
He talked about the book ‘The Power of Decision’ by Raymond Charles Barker. It may remind you of how limiting our thoughts can be about what riches really are. Tim then stated that a decision is a committed thought so you have to decide to have abundance in your life.
Success minded people like Tim Mai do things out of the good nature of their hearts. They are not fearful of failing because they are motivated to improve the quality of life for their families. They are sure of themselves. Tim states that one thing that will help you in the decision about investing is knowing how to act and when to act.
So he not only teaches real estate investing, but also helps his students learn the emotion behind investing. That’s because the how-to is just a series of actions. But the why is the seed of motivation that causes you to act.
Tim had Lee Arnold as a guest on HHTV. Lee’s company motto and blog is called “I’m The Solution”. He models his life’s philosophy from Zig Ziglar about getting what you want by helping others get what they want. Lee stated that you must be in this to help people and then you will have success.
He was a $3 bag boy and attended college in his off time. He also worked at rent-a-car center on the weekends. He admitted that he too had fallen for the idea that going to college and earning a great job was the key to success before he became an entrepreneur.
Then he read Rich Dad Poor Dad and realized that there was no one in his group of associates that made more than 40k per year. There was no one in his circle of influence that could mentor him to the success he desired. He took off time to attend Russ Whitney’s seminar and wanted the books and tapes but had no money. He had to asked them to hold a post dated check for the books and tapes because he couldn’t really afford it.
The next 7 days were very stressful trying to make that $1600 check good. His family and friends could offer no assistance. Then off to the bank to ask for a signature loan. No deal.
The banker did tell him that he could refinance his truck for $3000. With that he paid for the program and used the rest to buy his first investment property for 35k. He put 15k into his investment on credit, and sold it a few months later for 79k. That’s a 29k profit! A cut above a grocery baggers salary.
Yet Lee realized that he still had no successful mentors around him. So he called to work for Russ Whitney, but they told him that they didn’t hire students just to get rid of him. He would need to acquire experience with ten deals before they would consider working with him. To Lee, closing ten deals was just a formality. He got it done.
Lee called the Russ Whitney team back to ask them for a job again. They had him fly down for an interview. He got the job and ended up spending a great deal of time with Russ Whitney. He sat in many trainings seminars with people who had a successful mindset. Traveling with a team of sharp professionals can have an amazing affect on you.
While he was speaking at a training event he spotted a cute girl in the front row that he had to muster the confidence to talk to. She must have liked him too since she accepted his proposal. Long story short, had he not taken a chance and written that $1600 post dated check, he would not have experienced the life he has today. Lee believes that if you think you can, you can, and if you think you can’t, you cant.
According to Tim, Lee has a burning desire to succeed. That is his overall trait. Lee says that although he has several flat screen TV’s in his home, if you ever stop by you will notice that the TV is rarely on. Television is not his favorite pass-time. He would rather study and learn from articles and blogs.
Growth is extremely important to Lee so he stays active with those who can motivate him to improve his abilities. This assists him in getting over the next hurdle.
Lee is a spiritual minded man so he credits his gifts to God rather than take credit for himself. Playing the piano in church made him nervous, but it pushed him and made him uncomfortable. It caused him to grow as a person.
Then he said something quite intriguing. He stated that in every social setting, he wants to be the poorest, dumbest guy in the room. Then he has something to learn from everyone.
Today, Lee is a consultant on Donald Trump’s team. He is able to teach us how to be successful because he is always around people more successful than he is. He reads the books of people who have done it because they have already laid the ground work.
Tim Mai added that you have to learn how to love discomfort. He quoted that “excellence is only one inch beyond mediocrity.” He brought out statements from the book ‘The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People’. Namely, if you want to be wealthy you cannot focus on wealth. You must be focused on being well rounded. Spirituality gives him a greater purpose. Lee said that he is happier having spirituality than not having it.
His counsel and parting words of wisdom were to really be careful about who you give time to and who you allow to penetrate your belief system. Devotion to spiritual things was at the top of his list trumping his dedication to wealth creation. He showed a deep interest in the spiritual lives of his family.
Many question themselves as to whether or not they deserve to succeed. Nevertheless, free yourself from individuals who doubt your abilities or commitment. People who say things likeYou can’t do that or “Oh, you’re in another one of those MLM’s?, or Oh, you saw another one of those infomercials? You’re never gonna do anything with that.”
Lee also emphasized that if you find yourself surrounded by people who don’t believe in you, who aren’t encouraging you, it will have a negative affect you.Do not allow negative and criticizing people into your life. Those who are going to benefit you and help you to develop into a successful individual should be the core of your associates. If you surround yourself with naysayers, you will not grow to success in anything.
Maybe you can’t remove people like that from your life completely, but you can be careful with your time. Time is all we’ve got. People like Tim and Lee are very generous with their time, knowledge and expertise. You will really gain a wealth of knowledge and have tremendous respect for their dedication to serve people.
Be sure to get involved in the daily HHTV training shows daily at 8:00am Central.
