Suyog Development Corporation Ltd opens booking of 1 bhk, 2 bhk & 3 bhk budget flats in Suyog Lucky Homes, near Moze Engineering College, Wagholi

1 bhk flat for 13 lakhs

2 bhk flat for 18.5 lakhs

3 bhk flat for 32 lakhs

Carpet area and property rates:

Suyog Lucky Homes' ad published on the front page of today's Sakal (30th May 2009) warns you about the misleading attractive low property rates based on the saleable areas.

To avoid disappointment of realizing (after taking possession!) that your flat is too small than you had "imagined", Suyog Development Corporation Ltd strongly suggests that you should insist on the carpet area - internal area - wall-to-wall area - of the flat.

Without going into the details of "loading" on the carpet area, Suyog - one of my favorite clients in my real estate advertising days, claims that they give you more carpet area.

At a first glance you may feel that their property rates based on the saleable area are on the higher side. But when you will understand that you are getting more carpet area, Suyog says, you will realize that at Suyog Lucky Homes you are getting value for your money. (!?)

What is your take on the "other charges"?

Recently, you may have seen that i try to give carpet area and all inclusive total cost of the flat. Because, we all believe that, there is no point in focusing only on the per sq.ft. property rate based on the saleable area. Other charges also need 'correction'. Right?

Besides getting an idea of the real rate we pay for property or following the law ("Builders, sell on the basis of carpet area or go to prison!") considering carpet area and total cost has a practical benefit. While negotiating, i am sure, it is easy to bargain about the total cost than talking about each head separately, like parking charges, club membership, MSEB and society formation. Isn't it? Please, share your experience in the comments.

Nanded City Pune reduces the property rate to Rs. 2,500 per sq.ft.

10th June 2009 - Last date to finalize your booking!

Magarpatta's Nanded City, Pune - 700 acre mega township on Sinhagad road, Pune

Deepak, thanks for giving this breaking news! When i called the site office of Nanded City Pune, a salesman confirmed the news about the reduction of property rate to Rs. 2,500 per sq.ft.

Now, instead of Rs. 2,750 per sq.ft., till June 10, 2009, you can finalize your booking at Rs. 2,500 per sq.ft. he said.

What is your take on the property price reduction at Nanded City Pune?

You may remember that Rs. 2,750 was the special pre-launch invitation offer for the residents and "family members" of Magarpatta City and Nanded Village.

On 1st of June 2008, when Nanded City Pune was launched and bookings opened for all, property rate was Rs.3,250 per sq.ft., which eventually went up to Rs.3,500 per sq.ft.

Now, at this point of time, when you don't believe in booking in a project where work has just started, i wonder what Nanded City Pune is going to achieve by reducing the property rate to Rs. 2,500 per sq.ft!

I feel this is not the price reduction but serious devaluation of the 700 acre integrated township. Instead of motivating the property buyers, this reduction in the property rate is going to demoralize the existing buyers who had expressed their confidence by taking early decision to confirm their bookings.

These property buyers are going to ask themselves, "Why Rs. 2,500 per sq.ft.? Why not Rs. 2,300 or Rs. 2,200 per sq.ft.?

When Nanded City Pune asked for Rs. 2,750 per sq.ft. i did not ask for the justification. I didn't bother to see the plan or any details. I trusted Nanded City Pune.

Now, when they themselves, the promoters of Nanded City Pune, don't trust in the value of their project, how can i trust it? How can i believe that Rs. 2,500 per sq.ft. is the right property price? I won't make the same mistake again!"



It is going to create a doubt in the minds of property buyers like you, who haven't confirmed your bookings yet, about the possible depreciation of the property in 2 years down the line, when it will be ready for possession. When your sentiments will become completely negative, you will consider "lock in period" as a trap and not a protective net around your investment.

Am I right? Or is this property rate reduction going to motivate you to confirm you bookings in Nanded City Pune? Please, share your views in the comments.

Be aware when somebody asks you these two questions: "Do you love your country?" "Would you like to become a member of the club?"

Search Google!

Ashutosh, reader of Ravi Karandeekar's Pune Real Estate Market News Blog, shared his experience with me and said that it's my moral responcibility to make my readers aware about this "issue".

He has also suggested that one should search Google for these two attractive terms before taking any step.

Elections are over, so nobody is going to ask you whether you love your county or not.

But, be aware, Ashutosh says, you may receive a call asking you about the membership of the club. Caller may offer a plot of land along with the membership.

Generally, i don't get involved in these "issues". I am real estate salesman. I blog to help property buyers to book a flat. If i have any doubts about a certain project, i prefer not to write about it. However, I searched Google, as Ashutosh told me to do. Result is this post!

Thanks, Ashutosh! You are right. I should make my readers aware about this "issue".

Palash 2i, Wakad Pune, construction updates

Oh! What foresight some property buyers have!!



"Don't pay ADF to the builder."

"If builder gets 100 % down payment at the time of booking, what guarantee do you have that the builder will complete the project in time?"

Most of us, including me, had a some what similar opinion. Obviously, in July and October 2008, when Vilas Javdekar and Associates launched The Green Umbrella Offer for Palash 2.0 and then for Palash 2i, at Wakad, we strongly opposed the "scheme".

However, you know, many property buyers, in fact, too many property buyers, booked the flat under "No EMI till Possession" scheme!

Today, if you visit the website of Palash 2i ( www.palash2i.com ) and have a look at the progress of construction, you may wonder about the foresight these property buyers had!


View "Take a first left turn as you drive down the Hinjewadi flyover!" in a larger map

About Palash 2i, Wakad:

Palash 2i, built around the concept of "ego-friendly, eco-friendly", is a 12-storey high residential complex. The tower consists of twenty-four 2-BHK apartments and twenty-four 3-BHK apartments.

12th slab of Palash2i completed:

2 bhk and 3 bhk compact flats in Palash 2i, Wakad:


If you visit my blog "Wakad: Palash 2i news - 45 bookings in just 3 days!" posted on September 15, 2008, you will find Mr. Aditya Javdekar, Managing Director of Vilas Javdekar and Associates, promoters of Palash 2i, humbly announcing, "we have not only sold out all 2 bhk's but now have only a couple of 3 bhk's with us for sale .... taking the tally to 45 bookings in just 3 days."

However, today few 2 bhk and 3 bhk flats are still available for booking in Palash 2i.

How come? Why? Because, after the Global financial crises, cancellations happened not only in Paranjape Schemes' Blue Ridge at Hinjewadi or Magarpatta's Nanded City Pune on Sinhagad road but in all small and big projects in Pune real estate market.

Good news is that Palash 2i has not only managed to construct, till now, as per the promise ( and proved us wrong! ) but they are trying to give the possession before the promised date, March 2010!

Considering the current preference of booking in the project in which 70 % construction is complete and 70 % not bookings but agreements are registered, i thought some of you may reconsider Palash 2i!

For your convenience, personally i find downloading PDFs of floor plans and viewing them in Google Docs very inconvenient and time taking process, i am blogging the floor plans and costing of Palash 2i, Wakad.
Please, click to enlarge:

Total cost= basic cost (saleable area x rate) + MSEB & Open Parking (Rs. 1,50,000) + Development Charges (Rs. 50,000) + Society (Rs. 10,000)

Stamp Duty and Registration charges extra

3 bhk flat in Palash 2i - A1 type:

Carpet Area 913 sq.ft. - Rs. 36.54 Lakhs to Rs. 39 Lakhs

3 bhk flat in Palash 2i - A type:

Carpet Area 913 sq.ft. - Rs. 36.15 Lakhs to Rs. 38.58 Lakhs

Fractional ownership of property - a new concept that emerges from the recession

An alternative to a wholly owned second home

Innovative solutions to the recession can include fractional ownership of property - typically a second home, where the total cost is borne by multiple parties, so reducing the capital and yearly load on an individual.

This ensures that the person who has the money and the inclination to spend on leisure time pursuits does not need to think about too many repercussions.

RCI, the resort affiliation group who deal in timeshare holidays, have gone one step further into this market where they will help in negotiating and making the most of a timeshare home, a deeded property.

According to Radhika Shastry, Managing Director, Group RCI, India, "Shared ownership offers considerable potential for developers, operators and financial institutions. These models offer increased resilience during fluctuating market conditions.

In response to a desire for a high quality alternative to a wholly owned second home, without the associated costs, hassles and responsibilities, sales of fractional homes have demonstrated a market with considerable untapped demand in India.

In the US and Europe this concept has caught on big time, with people exchanging their own fractional home for fractionally held homes in other countries - which is where we come in"

Amit Enterprises - ready possession, early possession 2 bhk, 3 bhk flats and special offers, discounts on property rates

Amit's Treasure Park at Sant Nagar, Parvati, off Satara Road:

I have an interesting memory of Amit's Treasure Park.

More than an year ago, in the last week of February 2008, i had spend half a day in most of these 2 and 3 bhk ready possession flats. I was assisting my client, who was in US, to finalize his flat.

Before he went to US, my client had been to Amit's Treasure Park. So, he knew that few 3 bhk flats had a view of Parvati and Talajai Hills. But he took time and on the day, he was ready to book, those flats were not available.

Now, it was my duty to find an equally good option! Over the phone, we discussed each and every flat, it's terrace and the view. A tough job!

14 months ago, property rate of Amit's Treasure Park was Rs. 5,600 per sq.ft. Today it is Rs. 5,800 per sq.ft. At this rate simple 2 bhk flat goes for 66 lakhs!


View Ready possession, possession by December 2009 properties in Pune Real Estate Market in a larger map

Amit's 9 Green Park:

Along with Amit's Treasure Park, in the last 14 months, Amit's 9 Green Park's property rate has also increased by 200 rupees.

Located in the 'up market' locality ( means up on the hill slop!) of Sahakar Nagar 2, 9 Green Park's current property rate is Rs. 5,800 per sq.ft.

At this rate including everything, 2 bhk flat ( carpet area 686 sq.ft.) goes for 63 lakhs and 3 bhk ( carpet area 926 sq ft.) for 83 lakhs. Possession is in October 2009!

Amit's Bloomfield, off Sinhagad Road, at Ambegaon:

Amit has rationalized the property rates of Bloomfield! Now, along with the standard rate of Rs. 4,200 per sq.ft., for the flats with less specifications, there is a special property rate. Rs. 3,600 per sq.ft.!

Ready possession flats at Baner - Balewadi:

Emerald Park has ready possession 3 bhk flat for 38 lakhs. Sapphire Park has ready possession 2 bhk and 3 bhk flats. Amit has reduced the property price of Sapphire Park by 400 rupees. Thanks to new reduced property rates. Now, at Rs.3,200 per sq.ft., minimum budget has come down to only Rs.45 lakhs!

Now, all inclusive price of 2 bhk flat in Amit's Astonia, Amit's third project at Balewadi, is Rs. 26 lakhs.

Thanks Amit for presenting "A Home For Everyone"!

Kalpataru Estate at Pimple Gurav, Pune, increases the property rates of 2 bhk and 2.5 bhk flats by 100 rupees and 3 bhk flats by 50 rupees!

New increased property rates of Kalpataru Estate, Pimple Gurav:

2 bhk flat: Rs.2,400 per sq.ft.

2.5 bhk flat: Rs. 2,300 per sq.ft.

3 bhk flat: Rs. 2,300 per sq.ft.

Increasing property rate works as a trigger!

You see an ad in today's newspaper. Call Amit 99701 65776. First, he refuses to talk about property rates over the phone. Then he tells you about the price rise. You panic. He tries to calm you down by saying,"Come to the site and we will see!" You rush to Kalpataru Estate at Pimple Gurav. Negotiate for the old property rates. Instantly book the flat. Right?

What an idea to motivate you to take a decision to book high budget flat. 2 bhk flat: 32 lakhs. 2.5 bhk flat: 36 lakhs. 3 bhk flat: 38 lakhs!

DSK Vidyanagari, behind Pashankar Auto, Baner and DSK Janhavi, Bavdhan - last 2 days, 16TH & 17TH May, to get the benefit of launching property rate!

1 bhk and 2 bhk flats near Hinjewadi, Pune:

D. S. Kulkarni Developers' DSK Vidyanagari, on Pashan Sus Roda, behind Pashankar Auto in Baner and DSK Janhavi at Bavdhan were launched on Thursday, 14TH May, 2009.

Ad in today's newspaper says that 16Th and 17TH May, today and tomorrow, are the last 2 days to get the benefit of an "inaugural property rates" when both projects have a "package deal". No per sq.ft. property rate!

In a way, this is good! Because, saleable areas and property rates based on saleable area are misleading!

DSK quotes only lump sum total cost. For example:
(total cost including stamp duty and registration)

DSK Vidyanagari, Baner:

1 bhk flat: 508 sq.ft. Carpet: Rs. 19.97 lakhs

2 bhk flat: 795 sq.ft. Carpet: Rs. 30.42 lakhs

DSK Janhavi, Bavdhan:

1 bhk flat: 438 sq.ft. Carpet: Rs. 16.17 lakhs and 16.47lakhs

Lok Shasan Andolan suggests that if the State Govt along with PMC, PCMC amend their policies 3 -4 lakh affordable flats can be constructed

PMC & PCMC, free the land acquired under one or other pretext:

Satish Khot, sec-retary of Lok Shasan Andolan said, “There is about 500 hectare land avail-able in the rural areas adjoining Pune.

If more land becomes available under the residential area, it will also mean that more houses will be built.

According to Joshi, “There can be 220 flats of 450 sq ft built on one hectare of land.

If we consider the total amount of land, total number of flats available will be at least 3 to 4 lakhs."

Service apartment - creche-like facility - for the senior citizens at Baner - Apple Assisted Service Apartments

Apple Hospitality Services introduces international Standard Assisted Living facility for elderly

Bookings for the service apartments to commence from June 1:
Apple Hospitality Services, Pune, has ventured into healthcare hospitality introducing an international standard assisted Living facility for the elderly.

Speaking to reporters the promoters of Apple Hospitality Mr. Gautam Dedhia and Mr. Chirag Naik said that Healthcare hospitality is a new concept be it medical tourism, old age care, pre and post operative care or just having to care for elderly in case children are abroad or out on work.
Apple team comprises of professionals is already established into Service Apartments business and this venture is in consulting collaboration with HE-Tech focusing on US healthcare outsourcing.

Assisted Living means:

Many definitions embrace a philosophy of assisted living that includes:
meeting a resident's scheduled and unscheduled needs; maximizing a resident's independence, privacy, autonomy, and dignity; minimizing the need for a resident to move when his or her needs change; and providing a homelike environment.

Assisted living residences or assisted living facilities (ALFs) provide
supervision or assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs);
coordination of services by outside healthcare providers;
and monitoring of resident activities to help to ensure their health, safety, and well-being.

Residents of assisted living facilities need not be concerned with daily meal preparation, because a central kitchen and dining facility typically provides three meals each day.

The central dining facility also allows for visiting with others without having to leave home. This greatly reduces the isolation that elderly, disabled people may suffer when living alone and who are afraid (usually for physical reasons) to leave their homes.

The first of its kind for elderly in form of Apple Assisted Service Apartments in will provide an opportunity for senior citizens living alone, a safe, sound and 24/7 help along with company of other senior citizens.

Mr. Naik added that, there is an immense need in market for such reasonably priced but yet very comfortable facilities for old people.

Working couples, NRIs, Traveling Professionals and Business persons can find appropriate solution to provide comfortable stay with total care for their parents.

Senior citizens living alone will also find it very appealing.

Hospitals Vs Apple Assisted Service Apartments:

According to survey done at leading hospitals in Pune, there is significant number of old age occupants. Most of them had no sickness, but their children are worried about them.

Old age, it seems, is the illness which is forcing them out of their homes and permanently into hospitals. So instead of occupying much needed hospital beds they can use such facilities.

Moreover at the leading Hospitals, private room charges are astronomical, so there is a need to provide facilities at the rates which are affordable for the children of these elderly patients. Most of these children stay abroad and are a worried lot, especially when their over elderly parents live on their own.

The fact that 71 million people, or 11% of the country's total population, are over 60 years, and a significant 0.3% are over 80 years, makes it all the more imperative to create an alternative (to the family) institutions to take care of this segment of the population. These figures are from the 2001 census, with the country's total population touching 1.02 billion.

Facilities at Apple Assisted Service Apartments:

The facilities are made up on international standards with 24/7 monitoring and help, on call facilities tie-up and modern communications.

Psychological counseling which is found the one needed most by US old age homes.

AC rooms with TV sets on sharing/non sharing basis,

Separate arrangement for ladies and Gents

24/7 nursing attention

Routine Medical checkup

Online upload of critical data for remote physicians /relatives.

Video conferencing/chat facility for remote physicians/relatives,

Advanced electronic security and 24/7 Guards


On Call Ambulance and tie up with leading Hospitals/physician for emergency care

Psychological Counseling

Hygienically Boarding Arrangements designed by nutritionist

Admission on Monthly/weekly/daily basis.

Individual storage

On call provisions, medicine, transport

Reading Room

Activity center for common interaction:
prayer room, TV, cultural program, Music and Old movies collection, Special sessions of yoga etc from experts.
Tie-up, soon, with Laughter clubs
and associations like NRIPO to have some innovative activities.

The staff: well trained by means of qualified nursing experience.
The entire show will be run by a qualified Doctor.
The staff has been trained on soft skills and old age psychology sessions by experts.

1 month camp for senior citizen from 1st June:

The company also has planned to conduct a one month camp for senior citizen from 1st June.

This camp is one of its unique kind . Normally one associates activity camps with children. But here senior citizens will enjoy ambiance of the facility, service while interacting with other senior citizens having common interest.

The activities include picnic, cultural program, yoga, counseling session, creative arts, quizzes etc.

Future plans: Kothrud, Koregaon Park and Medical Tourists form US!

Speaking on the future plans Mr. Dedhia said that the idea here is to grow from this single facility into at least 3 facilities in Pune like another one at Baner Rd, Kothrud, Koregaon Park.

"We are currently talking with several US-based agents to bring non-critical medical cases to India who can stay at our facility. Our next move is to promote medical tourism," Dedhia said.
IndiaPRwire

Prices of the apartments:

Speaking more about the prices of the apartments, Gautam Dedhia, partner Apple Hospitality Services, added, “as of now a total of 35 such apartments will be available, which will be spread over two apartments in Baner. The area of the two properties will be 10000 sq ft and 3000 sq ft respectively.

As far as pricing goes, the range is Rs 600 for the normal apartments, and Rs 1000 for the exclusive apartments for a day.

The rates for them for a week are between Rs 3500-Rs 6000 and between Rs 13000-Rs 20000 a month.”

For Nano Homes Ravet in Pune - visit www.nanohomes.co.in

Which Nano Homes?

Are you searching Google for Tata Housing's Shubh Griha Nano Homes at Boisar near Mumbai or Rama Group and Kohinoor Group's joint venture "nano homes" near D.Y. Patil College, Pradhikaran at Ravet in Pune?

If you are searching for Nano Homes Ravet in Pune, i have a good news for you. Now, you can visit www.nanohomes.co.in to know more about the popular project in Pune real estate market.

Website of Nano Homes Ravet in Pune:

The website has an "intro". Which has above visual which you will see on the cover of the brochure too. And the perspective of the building which you may have seen in the full page ad in Sakal.

Our "Nano Homes Ravet in Pune" is actually a long single building, divided into 13 wings, called as Building A to Building M. These 13 wings (buildings) have 7 floors and 364 flats. Building A, the first building, has few shops. Obviously, in the first phase, last 5 buildings, from Building I to Building M, are open for bookings.


On Saturday, 25th April 2009, Nono Homes Ravet in Pune was launched. On the day of the launch, according to the news in Sakal, around 400 property buyers visited the site and 40 flats were booked(!).

A home for every one!


On the home page you will find corporate philosophy of the promoters of Nano Homes! You know there is no point in reading it. You are visiting this website ( www.nanohomes.co.in ) because of the small budget of the 1 bhk and 2 bhk flat in Nano Homes Ravet in Pune.

# Carpet area in sq.ft.
# Cost includes 1) Basic cost 2) Other charges 3) Covered Car Park.
# Stamp duty and registration charges extra.

1 bhk flat: K & L Buildings

1) Terrace with living:
390 sq.ft. - Rs. 14,42,000

2) Terrace with bedroom:
390 sq.ft. - Rs. 14,60,000

2 bhk flat: I, J & M Buildings
1) 496 sq.ft. - Rs. 17,39,000

2) 586 sq.ft. - Rs. 19,82,000

About property rates the launch ad had said that "Never seen before rates at PCMC and Pradhikaran". Property rates of Nano Homes at Ravet in Pune are comparable only with the highest rates of Pradhikaran, it means that property rates are not small. Only flats are small.

So without wasting time, you can click the links and visit the pages which give information about Amenities, Specification, Floor plans and Location of Nano Homes Ravet.

You can fill up the Enquiry Form but instead of that i will suggest you to visit the Contact page and call 91 96650 44666 / 91 96658 44666 to know more about Nano Homes, Pradhikaran, near D. Y. Patil College, Ravet in Pune!

What is your take on the usefulness of the websites?


When Nano Homes Ravet in Pune was launched the website was not ready. Now, when the website is uploaded what i see is "printed brochure on the net!".

Many builders in Pune believe that "The website is not for the information but only to attract the property buyers to the site." Result is, attractive but less informative website!

What is your take on this? Do you expect detail information of the project when you visit the real estate website? Please, share your views in the comments. (Comments Policy)
