Homebuyers to get 11% Interest for delayed Projects

The draft Real Estate rules prepared by the Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation Ministry has called for developers to compensate homebuyers by paying 11.2 per cent for delaying their projects. The move is expected to bring relief to homebuyers who have been affected by projects getting incessantly delayed in addition to rising loan burdens.

The draft rules have also asked for projects which have failed to procure completion certificates to be registered with Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA) which is expected to be set up in all the states and Union Territories (UTs) within three months once the rules are notified. Developers will be required to furnish information such as project completion dates, flats sizes, and amenities promised. The rules will seek suggestions from the public till July 8.

The rules were prepared by the Ministry within two months of the passing of Real Estate (Development and Regulation) Act 2016, on May 1 with 69 of 92 sections published.

The proposed interest rate compensation is two per cent above State Bank of India's (SBI) prime lending rate (PLR). A home loan in SBI can is available at 0.20-0.80 percentage points above the MCLR (marginal cost of fund-based lending rate), which now is 9.15 per cent which is the PLR for a retail loan. Currently, the home loans are available at 9.35-9.95 per cent interest rate, while the compensation interest rate will be 11.2 per cent.

Further, if there is any violation such as a delayed possession, an increase in apartments size, alternations in layout constructions of additional towers without taking approval from at least 70 per cent allottees will lead to the projects registration being canceled. Further, the Authority will be authorized to take any decision such as roping in an external agency to get the projects completed with buyers' association providing its consent.

The draft rules have also imposed a "compounding" fine which developers can pay to avoid being jailed for violating regulator rules. Meanwhile, the developer fraternity has expressed their displeasure at the move stating that it will impact the present ongoing projects which could further add to delay. Getamber Anand, President Confederation of Real Estate Developers' Associations (CREDAI) India, shared that there are many ongoing projects launched before 2012 which can be called as defaulters.

Since real estate in each state functions differently, the state government will be required to frame rules within a time period of six months from the date the Act was published, which is May 1. The rules have been termed as homebuyer-friendly as it forces the developers to finish all the projects on time.

The REALTY REPORT CARD

How did the first half of 2016 pan out for the realty sector? Were there key launches in the affordable segment? What was the absorption rate like? How will the lessons learnt pave the way for the rest of 2016? Read on...

Mumbai's realty mar ket had witnessed a sluggish growth in 2015 due to global and national eco nomic factors and higher interest rates. The first half (H1) of 2016 (calendar year), seems to be working in the favour of Mumbai's realty market. The economic indicators have shown a good sign of strength. The interest rate is hovering below the double digit figure. The Indian Meteorological Department has predicted a surplus monsoon this year. As opposed to last year, Mumbai's realty sector has performed better in H1 2016.

PERFORMANCE IN H1 2016:

While analysing the performance fig ures of Mumbai's residential realty market, Ramesh Nair, COO operations and international director, JLL India presents the following points: “The average residential property prices in Mumbai saw an annualised ap preciation of 3.3 per cent in 2015, which was recorded at about 7 per cent in 2014. This year, we predict an increase in residential property prices by around 6 per cent; South-central Mumbai (Byculla, Parel, Worli, Prabhadevi and Dadar) and the eastern suburbs witnessed the maximum appreciation at 4.3 and 4 per cent respec tively, followed by north Mumbai and the western suburbs at 3.9 and 3.5 per cent respectively; Thane's property prices rose by 3 per cent, and Navi Mumbai's by about 6 per cent. Localities in Navi Mumbai and Thane experienced maximum traction due to affordable property prices; Absorption in the luxury segment is still under pressure due to unaffordable property rates and limited buyers in the market. Over 67 per cent of the total unsold inventory is priced over Rs 1 crore.“

Pointing at the evolving realty desti nations of Mumbai, experts reveal that with the construction of the Navi Mumbai International Airport on the cards, the outlook for Navi Mumbai and the sur rounding areas looks positive. The residen tial real estate outlook for areas such as Ulwe, Palghar, Koparkhairane, looks promising as many developers are flocking with affordable housing projects in these areas. “There has been a slight increase in the new launches in Q1 2016 as compared to Q1 of 2015. This was largely driven by a few large project launches in the eastern suburban submarkets that constituted the majority of the unit launches (36 per cent), followed by Navi Mumbai and Thane. This is true across all major micro-markets and especially Thane. As per the data from Cushman & Wakefield for the first quarter of 2016, the new residential launches in the MMR were 5,356 units and those for the same quarter last year were 4,000 units. This shows that de velopers are looking for some early signs of recovery in the mid-market residential space,“ explains Amit Goenka MD and CEO, Nisus Finance.

Property rates quoted by developers have either remained stagnant with respect to the middle-class segmentaffordable segment homes or have seen a decline in terms of luxury housing.

PERFORMANCE EXPECTATIONS FROM H2:

“Since monsoon is always a dry season for the realty market across India, not much traction is expected. But immediately after the monsoons, the festive season starts and lasts for a good three months of the second half of the year, and it can provide the best results, especially, if a further 0.25 per cent reduction takes place in the interest rate and better job opportunities come up (as they push purchasing power). An other rationale is that the buyer cannot delay his buying de cision for a long time.Also, only 100 per cent approved projects are being launched in the market, so essentially, buyers don't have to worry about approvals and mortgages are available in the 20:80 scheme,“ suggests Ravi Gurav, member MCHI-CREDAI and vice-president, marketing, Dheeraj Realty.

According to experts, in H2-2016, in the middle-income and affordable range, there should be a larg er off-take in absorption with prices remaining firm to marginally increasing.

The market has already witnessed a revival in demand in the mid and affordable segments. The economic growth and buoyant capital markets have led to the increasing appetite in key micro-markets. This is reflecting in increased enquiries and higher launches. The application of RERA will further boost demand with higher investor confidence and an improved market sentiment.

Thus, the built environment of real estate within Mumbai does hope that the second half of 2016, would finally bring in the much needed cheer for this sector.

Does the consumer actually benefit from loan switching?

 There are many ways to lose money when you refinance and it’s important to think through the entire process, weigh the pros with the cons and then decide

Loan switching or refinancing is one of the most common things that customers think about in environments where interest rates are dynamic and it can lead to customers getting significant benefits however the same needs to be done smartly. If one is considering refinancing your loans, it's probably because you think you can save money, especially now when interest rates have come down in the past one year. Well, your thinking is right on target and it goes to prove that you are a smart customer.

There are many ways to save money through refinancing - including lowering your interest rate and shortening the term of your loan. But unfortunately, with refinancing fees, there are just as many ways to lose money when you refinance as well and it’s important for the customers to think through the entire process, weigh the pros with the cons and then decide if this is something that is worth their time.

Loan switching is a personal decision that should be based upon not only current monthly savings but also ones short and long term plans. Add to that the effort required in loan switching, and the hidden charges and difficulties that might come your way when bank does everything in their power to retain a ‘good’ customer.

To determine if loan switching is right for you, read on to learn more about how you can save and lose money by refinancing.

Ways You Can Save Money by Refinancing

#1 - Getting a lower interest rate

 
In general, refinancing for a lower interest rate is probably going to save you money, both on a monthly basis and over the term of your loan. The same can be easily explained with an example: A is running a floating rate loan at 10.5% which had increased due to the upsurge in interest rate, at that point of time he was paying an EMI of Rs 998 per lakh.

However, now that interest rates have come down, this loan can be refinanced at 9.5% (current market interest rate) and the EMI would reduce to Rs 932 per lakh. This would lead to a saving of Rs 66 per lakh of loan being run by A. Now if one was to look at the saving over the entire loan amount and over the entire tenor of the loan, this would work out to a significant sum leading to a direct immediate benefit for the customer.

However, there are a few caveats. Even with a lower interest rate, borrowers need to consider certain loan switching costs (eg processing fee when switching to a new bank, certain levies by the old bank, etc.) and make sure the savings from the lower interest rate will outweigh the refinancing costs.

#2 - Switching to a shorter-term loan

 
When paying off a longer-term loan, you might feel like you're saving money because your monthly payments are low. However, this thought process is a fallacy as one is actual paying a higher quantum of interest as it is over a much longer term, sometimes much longer than it really needs to be. Once can definitely save more money in interest by paying that same loan off over a shorter term.

In addition, it’s also possible that the banks are willing to give a better interest rate for a shorter tenor loan as well, as the bank would believe that it represents a significant shift in the risk profile of the customer. As a thumb rule, the shorter the tenor of the product, the lower would be the quantum of interest being paid out.

However, one point of caution here is that refinancing to a shorter term-loan with a lower interest rate would only be advisable for a borrower if they're comfortable with the higher payment, as this would lead to a higher monthly outflow but since the loan would be paid off earlier due to the shorter tenor the overall interest outflow would be lesser.

#3 - Switching from a floating rate loan to a fixed rate loan

 
When you have a floating rate loan, your payments fluctuate as interest rates go up and down, based on a market conditions. This can be great when interest rates are low, but extremely difficult when the interest rates rise. In an increasing interest rate scenario its often seen, that since customers do not have the comfort of paying a higher EMI, they tend to increase tenor of the loan, which is the worst possible thing that can happen as one has effectively increased the interest outflow. Another point to consider, is that if the same happens early in the history of the loan, then the burden is higher as the construct of the EMI payment is such that in the initial years of a longer tenor loan most of the EMI ends up going towards the interest component. Now if the rates go up, then effectively one has already paid a high quantum of interest, and the double whammy of the loan being extended also hits them.

If the customers feel that they are unable to manage this volatility they can switch to fixed rate loans which are slightly more expensive than a floating rate loan on a current date but by definition remain fixed even in an upwardly moving interest rate cycle.

As a final note on this topic, however here's something to mull over: With rates currently coming down, do you think they could go any lower? If you do, then stick with a floating rate loan. if you don't, then a fixed rate loan is the best money-saving option for you.

Thane Mayor offers tax rebate as incentive to beautify city

Thane Mayor Sanjay More today announced rebates in property tax among other incentives for the city residents, who qualify by clearing a competition on certain development parameters, such as cleanliness.

The competition would test the participants on various topics such as cleanliness in the area, solid waste management, tree plantation, solar power, modernisation of fire-fighting systems, water conservation, timely payment of municipal taxes and also voters registration, More told reporters.

"The slum colonies who qualify in the competition will be given the benefit in the form of works to the tune of Rs 5-10 lakh in their colony," he said.

"The housing complexes which qualify in the competition will be given 5 per cent rebate in property tax," he said.

He said an independent committee comprising subject matter experts would examine the applicants and the cut-off marks for the qualification would be announced subsequently.

He urged the residents to participate in the competition in large numbers, and thus reduce the burden on the civic body.

"After Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis' decision to not give any more permissions for dumping yards, the Thane Municipal Corporation has also decided to not have any more dumping yards. Instead, the housing complexes would be encouraged to undertake measures for waste disposal," he said.

Shift percentages in your favour

It is a dream for every Indian to own a home of his own and in order to fulfil this dream one needs to know the eligibility criteria before applying for a home loan. While home loans are offered based on various factors, the interest rate may differ based on the specifications and requirements provided by the customer. This is where the credit scores play an important role while applying for a home loan.

While not every home loan seeker looks closely into the credit scores offered by CIBIL and other agencies, it is extremely important as these scores have the capacity to help vary interest rates as much as a full percentage point.

For a customer seeking a home loan of Rs 10,00,000 with an average simple interest rate of 10% for 10 years, he would be paying an interest of Rs 5.85 lakh. Whereas, a marginal reduction of 50 basis points in the interest rate can let the customer save up to Rs 5.52 lakh.

Home loan providers or financial institutions look at several variables on the credit report, one of them being outstanding debt. The credit score offers a holistic view on the financial ability of a customer and hence forms an important element in the process of a home loan.

Listed below are some of the key pointers to help improve one’s credit score which will in turn have a positive impact on the home loans process.

Current payment management

Pay your bills on time. A delay in any credit card dues or other EMIs can have a major negative impact on your credit scores. Moreover, rebuilding it into a positive score can be a lengthy process. To help you remember when you need to make certain payments, get a system in place and try to incorporate automated payment systems such as ECS facilities. Make sure your current payment patterns are good and reflected in your credit report. One should be aware that paying off a collectable account will not remove it from your credit report and that it will stay there for few years.

Avoid multiple bank accounts

At the initial stage of your financial building exercise, avoid opening multiple bank accounts. Have a maximum of two accounts, which includes your personal and salary account for salaried and current account for business individuals. The reason for the same is that multiple bank accounts lowers one’s average account age which would eventually have a large impact on one’s credit scores. Moreover, multiple bank accounts are a risky practice for a new credit user.

Check your limits

It is important to keep a track of your credit limit. Do not use the entire credit limit at one attempt, space it out over a period of time. One can also raise the credit limit depending on the spending habits as well as the confidence to repay the spent amount.

Check on credit report

This is a good way to evaluate your credit worthiness. Your credit score repair begins with your credit report. Your credit report contains the data used to calculate your score and it may also contain errors hence regular checks should be done to help mitigate errors. Make sure that there are no incorrect payments listed in any of the two accounts. One can get the mistakes corrected by contacting the credit bureau.

Heed payment reminders

As mentioned earlier, making your credit payments on time is one of the biggest contributing factors to your credit scores. Some banks offer payment reminders through their online banking portals that can send you an email or text message reminding you when a payment is due. This is a crucial function which enables you to consider automatic payments from one’s bank account.

Reduce the debt you owe

The first thing one must do is reduce the use of credit cards. Make sure you make a list of all accounts and check recent statements to determine how much is the outstanding balance and the interest rate levied on it. Facilitate a payment schedule/ plan that provides an available budget for debt payments towards priority payments.

Update your credit report

Your credit report is checked a year or so before buying a home. That gives you time to correct errors in the report and change the spending habits to improve your score. Make sure every personal and saving bank account detail is reported correctly and update the same in case of any discrepancies.

If you're buying a home soon, try not to apply for any new credit cards. Though it's not always avoidable, you should try and resist from opening new streams of credit in a short time. Maintaining a good credit score is not a daunting task. Following the steps enlisted can ensure a healthy and secure financial future.

How will unchanged repo rate impact realty

The recently announced 'unchanged' Repo Rate garnered mixed reviews. This move comes as a cautionary measure in the very first quarter of the new fiscal year. How will this announcement impact the realty market?

We find out

Mohini Ahlawat, a prospective home buyer, has been waiting for the last six months in anticipation of an interest rate cut. She was yet again disappointed in the first quarter of this fiscal year but everyone told her that the growing GDP, lower crude prices compared to the last few years and a negative inflation, indicate that in the second monetary policy by the Reserve bank of India (RBI), a rate cut is on the cards. However, she is disappointed, yet again.

"I am not an economist, nor do I understand the financial jargon. But what I fail to understand is that if the GDP is indeed growing, oil prices are low in the global market and over and above that, the inflation too is low, then, why are the interest rates not reaching the range of 7 to 7.5 percent? This is the level at which an average home aspirant can think of buying a house," says Mohini as she shares her concerns.

However, the concerns of the RBI governor, Raghuram Rajan, are more from a macro level perspective of the Indian economy, ranging from a slight rise in retail inflation; an anticipated further rise in crude prices; a not-so-positive monsoon to the overall 'upside risk' to inflation after the implementation of the 7th pay commission recommendation.

Hence, the RBI governor kept the repo rate unchanged at 6.5 percent, the reverse repo rate stays at 6.00 percent. The Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) also remains unchanged at 4 percent, in the recent monetary policy review. The RBI said that the April inflation reading makes its future trajectory somewhat more uncertain.

The central bank has also retained the growth projection at 7.6 percent for 2016-17 citing corporate profits and a surge in consumption. The RBI said it will soon review the implementation of marginal cost lending rate framework by banks.

The reactions

The industry is therefore as disappointed as the home-buyers. Shishir Baijal, CMD, Knight Frank India says that the sector is disappointed with no change in policy rates and it will take the real estate sector a longer time to come back on the rails.

The residential property market has not been doing well and there were expectations that the RBI would reduce the policy rates that would have given a boost to the residential property market.

"On a broader note, the RBI's stance of not reducing the policy rates could have emanated from the banking regulator's move to reduce inflation to below 5 percent by March 2017. CPI moving up to 5.39 percent and wholesale inflation turning positive, could be factors that may have prompted the banking regulator to leave the policy rates unchanged. Crude prices moving up exponentially, is expected to further add to inflationary pressures," says Baijal.

Ashwin Sheth, CMD, Sheth Corp feels that the RBI has played it safe and has been more cautious about the monsoon and its impact on inflation. A rate cut at this stage would have helped in lowering the home loan interest rates, thus making home buying a reality for most buyers who have been eagerly waiting for the rates to cut down.

"The government has taken the lead in trying to implement policies that will boost growth for the real estate sector. In the same vein, the RBI too, should have looked at the real estate sector with new optimism. The central bank has reduced its policy rate by 150 basis points until now since January 2015. But the banks have cut their rates by only about 70 bps. In short, the economy is yet to get the full benefit of the rate cut. The banks should pass on the benefit to the home-buyers as this will encourage the buyers to buy their dream home," says Sheth.

A welcome move?

Manju Yagnik, vice-chairperson, Nahar Group, on the contrary, welcomes the RBI governor, Raghuram Rajan's announcement to keep the repo rate unchanged at 6.50 percent.

She asserts that the last RBI bi-monthly announcement had reduced the interest rate, but was not passed onto the customers by the banks. Banks should take this opportunity to pass on the benefits to the customers by lowering the interest rates, which will result in the home-buyers coming forth and buying properties.

"The Indian economy grew by 7.9 percent in the March quarter and was ranked as the world's fastest growing economy. This move will create jobs and create positive sentiments within the country. Also, keeping rates unchanged will help control inflation, which presently is at 5 percent with an upward bias," says Yagnik.

However, what can definitely be vouchsafed is that this is definitely not good news for the overall health of the housing market something that contributes substantially to the Indian GDP.

Thane: A Realty Tale

What gives Thane an edge over its counterparts? Equipped with good commercial, residential and social infrastructure along with excellent connectivity to the rest of Mumbai, Thane and its crown jewel, Ghodbunder Road are redefining the realty scene.

The story of the destination development of Thane would be in complete without the mention of Ghodbunder Road. Commonly referred to as the GB Road, this property market runs entirely through state highway 42 and connects to the Eastern Express Highway, becoming National Highway 3. No wonder, Ghodbunder Road is not only a jewel in the crown of Thane but also the property market that helped shape Thane as a premier residential market. This location defies the conventional wisdom of a property market that claims that picturesque locations are meant for luxury housing only.

At Ghodbunder Road, the property rates are between Rs 7,500 per sq ft and Rs 11,500 per sq ft, with the average capital values standing at Rs 9,500 per sq ft. It is an equally attractive rental market where the average rental yields are about Rs 20 per sq ft. The beauty of the location is nevertheless breathtaking. It is surrounded by towering hills on one side and with a creek view on the other. The collective consciousness of the old timers, recall it as Ghodbunder village, which used to be a deserted area. But not anymore! This location has today, transformed into a property hotspot where the appreciation has been phenomenal in the last few years, despite the overall slowdown across the city. The development of Thane, as a property hotspot, actually changed the urban landscape in this part of the world and Ghodbunder Road turned out to be the best location of Thane. The urban profile and liveability index of this location has dramatically changed over the last few years. Residential projects, retail options, a cosmopolitan crowd and lifestyle options, have truly transformed this stretch of Thane.

A realty case study

With the boundaries of Thane extend ing to new locations, Ghodbunder Road highlights the growth of the real estate market in Thane. Popular residential areas along and off Ghodbunder Road include Kasarvadavli, Patlipada, Waghbil, Kapurbawdi, Manpada. Ghodbunder Road is growing faster than any other location in and around Thane because it consists of a good mix of developments like residential townships, commercial buildings, educational institutes, shopping and restaurants, etc. At a time when many other high profile locations across Mumbai are witness to a slump in the transaction rate, this area has busted several myths. Thane is today the most preferred stretch as it provides good connectivity to the MMR. This area also provides a scenic view and is thus preferred by the upper middle class segment and now is also getting the interest level of high-end customers due to its scenic view. Thane is increasingly scaling up in the value pyramid of property and some of the developers have recently launched high-end apartments where the price range starts from Rs 15,000 per sq ft. What is proving to be a boon for the location is that the infrastructure and connectivity of Ghodbunder Road has upgraded from time-to-time to keep pace with the real estate development.

With the existing and planned infrastructure development of the Eastern Express Highway and Ghodbunder Road, the connectivity of this area to all parts of Mumbai and suburban Mumbai has enhanced tremendously. The infrastructural initiatives by local authorities TMC and MMRDA (like the construction of flyovers on Ghodbunder Road at Majiwada, Waghbil Naka and near Hiranandani Estate), further add to the connectivity.

In terms of the connectivity and the attraction quotient, Ghodbunder Road connects the Eastern Express Highway as well as the Western Express Highway via Mira Road and Borivali. The developers are hence bullish of its future growth as well. Ramesh Nair, COO business and international director, JLL India maintains that this location has a lot of fresh inventory driven by several infrastructural initiatives and good connectivity in the pipeline. The development authorities have planned a monorail network to serve as a feeder system to a Metro project planned in Thane. The MMRDA has finalised a Metro corridor, extending from Wadala to Kasarvadavali on Ghodbunder Road. The road also provides quick accessibility to Mira Road from Thane, and other micro-markets such as Mulund, Bhandup and Ghatkopar.

"Ghodbunder Road is approximately 20 kms long and links the two main arterial roads of Mumbai, the Eastern Express Highway that starts at Sion and terminates at Thane, while the Western Express Highway starts at Bandra (East) and becomes the National Highway leading to Gujarat. Due to the rapid development, the area has attracted many reputed developers, thus leading to a surge in the launch of many affordable and premium housing projects. Ghodbunder Road is interesting to developers due to the easy availability of large land parcels. From affordable apartments to premium properties, the area offers a wide assortment of housing options," says Nair.

Diipesh Bhagtani, executive director, Jaycee Homes believes that social infrastructure such as schools, hospitals, hotels and other amenities that are coming up in the vicinity, are adding to the charm of the location."One needs to live in a place that provides all the necessary amenities. Definitely, on this count, Thane scores over the other suburbs of Mumbai, as it is catering to the basic needs of one's habitation."

Thane is one of those rare markets where the scenic beauty of the region has been exploited for necessary urban habitation first and not luxury living .However, scaling up the luxury value chain has only been a natural evolution. The analysts hence are betting big on this market and rate it as one of the upcoming markets for the next, at least a decade, as it promises to provide an all-round living experience to a large number of people, at an affordable cost.
