Dos donts of real estate investment
1. Do’s and Don’ts of Real Estate
Investments
1 I Colliers International
Analyse your finances to make the correct assessment of
the amount of money that you can afford to invest in real
estate. Often this is ignored.
Get a pre-approved loan especially if you are looking to
finance part of the investment with a bank loan.
Understand the process and restrictions in case you are
buying property from the sale proceed of another property
Overestimate the amount of money that you can set aside
for investing in real estate.
Overestimate the rental income that can be generated from
the real estate asset (more so if considering netting off
mortgage payments with rental income). Renting out a real
estate asset may be time consuming and may not yield the
anticipated income, as it is a function of the market which
may change over time.
Thoroughly research the property location, market
conditions, developer’s background in terms of quality of
previous projects, ability to deliver on time and resale value
of past developments. Compare shortlisted projects with
similar properties in the neighbourhood.
If investing under construction residential property, it may
be more prudent to invest in those projects that are in an
early stage of construction. This is riskier than investing in
ready property, but it may likely provide a higher capital
appreciation.
Try to save money by not hiring professionals, as any
mistake can cost a lot in the long term. Do hire
professionals to get the best advice, however, check the
credentials of your real estate advisors.
Avoid bank's criteria for approving property in case you are
planning to take a home loan.
Check with the developer about the status of all approvals
and licenses, development scheme, layout plans and
construction schedule.
Calculate the total cost of the property by adding basic cost,
brokerage fees, finance charges and all statutory costs
such as stamp duty and registration.
Select the payment plan from Down Payment, Flexi
Payment, Construction Linked Plan and No EMI Plan, as to
which is best suited to your financial plans and will yield
the highest returns.
Buy a property without proper legal due diligence.
Focus heavily on financial costs; take other factors into
consideration like locality, distance from major commercial
and retail hubs etc.
