REASONS WHY REAL ESTATE WOULD BOOM AGAIN ?

💢 COMPETING RISK REWARD : Based on July 2018 data from National Council of Real Estate Investment Fiduciaries (NCREIF), private market commercial real estate returned an average of 9.85% over the past five years. This credible performance was achieved, together with low volatility relative to Equities( Stock Market) and Bonds, for highly competitive risk-adjustment returns.

💢 STABLE INCOME GENERATOR & PRICE APPRECIATION (wealth creator) :

Palghar & Boisar, an industrial town is one of Mumbai’s fastest-growing Extended suburbs. The proposed infrastructure and real estate projects in the area, are likely to transform this location into a prominent residential hub.Palghar & Boisar both are Governed By Gram Panchayat.

COMMERCIAL SPACE IN NAIGAON TO BOISAR REGION : It is difficult to get exact rates of commercial units.because prices vary from location to location and it also depends on needs of Buyer and seller.filters like Visibility and footfalls are used to get average value of property.Genrally this space needs huge capital.Rental Yields for commercial shops and offices ranges 2.5% to 7% P.A in maximum areas.Bigger and pre leased properties comment better rates and Rental yields.Rental also vary from location to location and depends.Shops starts from 15 To 20 Lacs and can go as high as 2 to 3 cr also or beyond that also.Main Road TOUCH shops are sold at premium and can be easily Resaled compared to shops on internal roads.But again both have huge difference.As Residential area grows demand for shops and offices starts growing up in particular area.Both has its owns pros and cons.
Demand- Supply Breakthrough:
Due to Lockdown low demand currently can fetch you discounted rates on good inventories.But once the economic condition will start settling, the bargain will reduce and demand will also start floating upwards. The rates will not be as low as they are now during lock down period.As a smart investor one should look at current situation to crack a better deal as many attractive offers currently available in markets.

Strike the iron when it is hot: We all must have heard this at least once Hindi version -“Maar Do Hatoda Jab Loha Garam Ho”.Currently its time to implement the strategy to gain extensive returns on the investment. Not only the rate are striking low, Even housing loan Interest rates are at Historic low levels and Many Builders offering Many offers and perks for buyers, Which wont last longer – as situation gets better prices can gradully see north moves.
STAY WITH BRANDS AND GOOD DEVELOPERS ONLY :

Chose location which are well connected to School, College, Markets,Banks,Multiplex,Restaurants, mode of transport- Railway, Highway & Metros. Project situated on Main Roads are much in demand as these projects offer better connectivity and Can give Good RETURNS value in longterm. Look for Bigger complex as it has all amenities and can have advantage in future for resellers and trends are changing from single owned building to bigger complex.
Current situation is giving an opportunity to buy real estate Property now, yet always go for a grade one category developer. During lock down, you have additional time to do your diligence about the projects, builder background and future prosperity of the investment. Use this time to chose best proposition for yourself, take expert advice and than book your dream asset.All new projects has to be registered with RERA( Real Estate Regulatory Authority)& also look Developers which are Registered with CREDAI (Confederation of Real Estate Developers’ Associations of India)
💢 THE FINAL OUTDRAW TO CHOOSE BETWEEN VIRAR/VASAI/NAIGAON & SAPHALE/PALGHAR/BOISAR :
If any one Wants To choose Real estate investment in virar – Vasai & Naigaon Belt – Vasai is most preferred location in terms Development infrastructure and future price apprection prospects, This region can become huge Center in next 10 years and can create Huge wealth over a period of time.
And Saphale has it’s own proximity to Other parts of mumbai and Virar- vasai. While those willing to travel a bit than Palghar and Boisar are Better Options.
💢 PRICE APPRECIATION IN VIRAR -VASAI REGION IN LAST 20 YEARS :

In 1999 Average price of 1BHK which was available close to 3 Lacs was Quoting at around 30 Lacs to 32 lacs in year 2019,Giving almost 1000% Returns in last 20 years OR you can say Property prices has appreciated almost 10 Times in last 20 years.

VIRAR VASAI REGION.
