It was through a highly competitive bid the Leela group acquired the property. The group outbid other players such as Emaar-MGF, Indian Hotels, Uppal Builders, ITC, Park Hotel, Positive Builders, etc. to grab a 3-acre estate in the heart of Delhi by paying a hefty sum of Rs.611 crore against a reserve price of Rs.300 crore.

There are reasons for the upward trend in South Delhi residential property market. A high-paying corporate sector, Central and State Governments’ salary hike, presence of world class property developers building trendy residential units, etc. have lent a fillip to the real estate market in the region. Estimably, property values are to go up in the coming years as there is a mismatch in the demand-supply matrix. The national capital of India, a leading industrial centre, the primary educational centre, etc. are factors which trigger migration to Delhi and this in turn has augmented the demand for residential property in South Delhi. However, a number of mega residential unit projects of the major infrastructure development companies are going on at different locations in the city.

Commercial Property Development Activity Falling At Record Rate Say Savills

Posted on by blogger

The UK commercial property sector continued to deteriorate at an increasingly rapid rate last month, new research by Savills has shown.

Its Total Commercial Development Activity Index fell in November for the 13th month in a row, with the rate of decline slightly steeper than in October.

As the credit crunch began to bite, weakening occupier demand led to a new series-record decline in development activity.

Almost 58% of respondents to Savills commercial property survey reported a drop in activity, compared with just 7% signalling a rise.

The index showed a resulting net balance of -50.3% in November, down from -49.7% in October.

The fastest reduction of activity was in private new build. Office development was particularly hard hit. For the fifth time in 2008, however, the least marked fall in activity was shown by refurbishment.

November’s survey also found widespread pessimism about the three-month outlook for activity, with the degree of negative sentiment the lowest since the survey began in March 2003.

Commercial developers said they remained concerned over the extent to which lower central bank rates can alleviate the downturn in the sector over the near term as a result of continued lack of credit availability, and a reluctance of clients to commit to new projects.

Commenting on the November survey, Mat Oakley, head of Savills’ commercial research department, said the negative outlook was surprising: “This month’s survey was surprising in the fact that developers’ expectations for the future continued to slide.

“While the lack of debt available is clearly a dragging factor on the market, we expected that November’s 150bp cut in the base rate might give developers some confidence that the downturn in occupier demand would be shorter and less deep than it could have been,” he added.

Top Reasons For Buying A Property Abroad

Posted on by blogger

There are several reasons why people choose to buy a second property abroad.

Ownership of property outside the UK is increasing in popularity. Fuelled partly by lower house prices and better climates, and made more favourable still by low-cost airlines, the appeal of a second property abroad is understandable. Once the preserve of the rich, a holiday home in Spain, Portugal, France or anywhere in the world for that matter, can now be acquired easily by the majority of the UK population.

There are three top reasons that people choose to buy a property abroad:

To live permanently in a new country

Some people move abroad for work, whilst others choose to retire outside the UK. Moving to a new country on a permanent basis is a challenge and a risk, and so many people choose to buy a property abroad, whilst keeping their UK home and renting it out. This means that they have somewhere to come back to should things not work out as planned. For many, moving to a new country is one of the best experiences of their life. The chance to live in a new culture; learning the language, eating new foods and soaking up the sun, is exactly what people are looking for.

To have a permanent holiday base

Some people like nothing more than the security of having a permanent holiday base. You know where to go, what shops are available, where the best beaches are and what attractions are nearby. You dont have to waste any of your holiday time getting acclimatised and your accommodation is a home-from-home. Whats more, you can visit it as often as you like throughout the year, and you can invite friends and family to come along and enjoy the holiday with you, or lend it to them so that they have a ready-made holiday base of their own.

To rent to other holidaymakers

Many people choose to cover the costs of buying and running their property abroad by renting it out. There are two main ways to do this; hiring an agent to rent the property on your behalf, or handling all the rentals yourself. An agent will take a percentage fee, but will handle all the bookings, cleaning and maintenance of your property. If you manage the rentals on your own, you will need to find someone trustworthy who can clean and prepare the property for your customers and handle any issues that arise when people are staying in your property. Renting is a very effective way to cover costs, and even to make a profit, but you have to limit the times when you can use the property and be prepared for damage and wear and tear to increase.

How To Buy Foreclosure Property

Posted on by blogger

If you are planning to buy foreclosure property then the below mentioned tips could prove to be very useful for you. You can start by searching fir foreclosure properties from sources such as classified in newspapers and websites. You can also check out listings placed under auction sales and foreclosure notices. You can also get in touch with real estate agents and attorneys and tell them that you are interested in buying foreclosure properties. The next source you can try is the local lending institutions such as Federal Housing Administration and the Department of Housing. These institutions have a lot of information on foreclosure properties in the respective areas. Also you can investigate foreclosure proceedings in your state as well.

You should make efforts to inspect the foreclosure properties so as to find out their market value and also find out the sale prices of similar properties in the same area. You should then determine the existing liens and also do a property title search of the foreclosure property in question. Contacting a trustee of the foreclosure sale and find out the minimum bid that the lender is ready to accept will also help. Also find out how you will arrange for finance for buying the foreclosure property in case you win the auction. You can also start by making an offer of a written bid to the lender of the sale.

Check out the ads on Google and other classified sites and you are sure to get loads of information on all foreclosure property sales. Find out if you are able to get good home loan offers from financial institutions in case you wont be able to pay all the dues from your pocket at the time of the sale. Remember that you dont take foreclosure proceedings lightly. They can be quite complicated and hence it is vital that you go through the laws of the foreclosure in your respective state. Do not forget to inspect the property before you go for the auction. In some cases there might be a redemption period where the owner of the property may claim it back in case he arranges for funds to pay off his debts. You should be aware of such information, if any.

Following all the tips mentioned above will go a long way in helping you get an upper hand in a foreclosure deal.
