REALTY REVIEW – May & June 2014

Real Estate was the strongest hit in last 4 years in the joint state. This single step of creation of state and New Chief Ministers swearing in for next 5 years have cleared the air and growth plan has been set in. Right now, it’s time to buy for short term and long term gains in the market. This has been a waiting moment for so many industries across board who are putting together their vision board and growth numbers in the paper. India on the whole has taken a fast track of development since the new government has come in Delhi and we expect very soon, all the pending real estate regulations will be complete in the order of priority. The only Air which one can breathe is of development and energy in the market. We saw a month full of activities in RE/MAX regions. We toured around the areas of Nellore, Vijayawada, Rajmundry and Vishakhapatnam along with Franchise India shows. We got huge response from the people about their ability to start up a new business in the real estate sector. These cities are positioned superb in terms of long term investment. With the new state and prevailing TAX holiday, it’s time for entrepreneurs to look forward only! Recently we have restructured our regions and look forward for fresh blood in the ownership category of the Different regions within the state. We will look forward for his/ her ability to manage real estate brokerage business with growth in mind in nearby cities, man-management skills and knowledge about local places. I wish as this hot sun fades away and brings up monsoon. Similarly, your lives will be blessed with showers of laughter, fun, happiness and prosperity. Love and Regards, A Balajee Kumar RE/MAX Regional Owner [email protected]

SOME REALTY TIPS & BITES –Vastu – Main Entrance Door

The main entrance of the house is one of the most important areas. The main entrance is the mouth of a house which brings in main energy and there are certain rules about the dos and don'ts regarding it. Avoid a property which has a door facing South West as it is the entry of the devil energy and brings in struggles and misfortunes. If the wealth energy as per advanced Feng Shui of that house is good, the occupant may prosper during initial 3-4 years. But then may face a down fall. If your house already has

When RE/MAX came to India, we noticed

that we can’t apply universal business

methods everywhere. The ways people

deal in different regions differ. The way

one person is dealing in Jammu &

Kashmir is very different from the way

someone deals in Kerala. There are

barriers in language, culture and local

knowledge etc. Keeping that in mind,

India was bi-furcated into regions. These

regions are called as Master Regional

Franchises like RE/MAX Gujarat,

RE/MAX Maharashtra and RE/MAX

Rajasthan etc.


a door facing South West, fix 2 Hanumanji's tiles (with the Gada in his left hand) outside the door & see the difference. Certain gems like Yellow Sapphire, Earth Crystals, and Lead with the Expert's advice can also further reduce the severity of this defect. But it is always better to avoid such properties.

West facing door is also not bad for the youngsters as it has an active energy & energy of enjoyment.

North West facing door is not so bad. It can bring in health, wealth and prosperity if supported by other Vastu rules. Only thing that the main male member of the house may remain out of the house for a longer time if the door faces west and a female if the door faces north.

Normally doors facing East, North, and North East are said to be good doors. But again there are many other things like Cuts, Extensions, Under Ground Water Tanks, Feng Shui (Flying Stars Chart) of the house which decides the wealth and health of the occupant. More on these topics next time!

Things a Real Estate Agent should tell his Client On the surface real estate brokerage sounds a fairly simple job. Match buyer seller leads; show them a few properties and close the deal. The reality is shockingly different. The buyer will say a hundred different things or not say anything at all. They are usually unaware of the Nitty-gritty’s of documentation involved during and post the sale. You must also inform them beforehand the additional costs involved for example:

The door facing South East is said to be a door which

brings in illness, anger and court matters. Two stickers

of Gayatri Mantra should be fixed on both the sides of

the door from outside. Use of gems like Coral, Yellow

Sapphire etc. and copper with a proper advice will

further reduce the defects of this door.

South facing door brings in sharp energy that disturbs

positive energy field of house. Door here means highly

active social life. Sometimes it brings in arguments or

disagreements. Again fixing two above mentioned

Hanumanji's tiles outside the door will help. It can

further be protected by using lead, cat's eye etc. But this

door if it is in fourth Pada is very good for an occupant.


Stamp Duty: 5 per cent – varies across states. Brokerage: % per cent Parking charges: Rs 100,000-1,000,000 Water connection and electricity deposit Maintenance: Rs. 5-15 per sq. ft. and upwards depending on the type of property Wear and tear Legal fees and litigation costs Home Insurance Interest cost: If they have taken a home loan

As a realtor it is your duty to make them aware of the different documents they will have to get in order for the sale to be complete. We hope you will find this useful and implement it in your roles!!!
