Be ready for offline legwork for online property deals

The World Wide Web has made the entire inventory of the realty market available to buyers at the click of a mouse button! Recently while property consultancy JLL India held an Online Home Fest to help developers market their residential projects directly to home buyers over the internet, real estate portal Magicbricks.com just concluded its maiden e-auction for Birla Apple Aroma, a housing project in Bengaluru.

In this format, Buyers simply have to register, deposit some earnest money, and then bid for the units put up by the builder. Since more & more marketing action in real estate is beginning to happen online, customers are dictated to get savvy about this medium and learn how to use it to their advantage.

What is the online advantage?

Firstly, by doing your initial research over the internet, you can avoid interacting with brokers and builders’ salespersons and protect yourself from their aggressive sales pitch.

A property portal allows you to search for an appropriate property by location, price and size. You can explore the best deals, compare rates of similar properties in the same area, and study price trends without stepping outside the comfort of your home!

After zeroing in on five to seven developers, you can visit each builder’s website, where you can find detailed information on their projects, site and flat layout, specifications, progress of construction, completion date, elevation (what the project will look like post completion), etc. moreover, one can also download the price list and sales agreement, and request for a booking chart (which tells you which flats are available).

Quick and easy due diligence:

The internet is not only a source of information, but can also be used to do background checks on the builder. Buyers can figure out from Facebook, Twitter and real estate forums the opinion that past buyers have on a particular builder and his track record. Besides, one can also gather information about the builder’s quality of construction and infrastructure in past projects, level of maintenance and so on.

However, beware that developers push favourable reviews on the web using Search Engine Optimization (SEO) techniques. Therefore, you need to be persistent and go beyond the first 10 searches to get a clearer picture. Home buyers can also run a search on court websites to look for cases pending against the builder if any.

Mumbai Metropolitan Region

Despite being the most expensive property market in the country, Mumbai Metropolitan Region continues to be the prime market for attracting investor interest. Structured equity or debt was the preferred route of investment as the city received the major portion of private equity investments in the past year.

Out of the total Rs 19,500 crore, Mumbai received more than 1/3^rd or 34 % investments in the sector in 2015, showed a JLL India study. The city was followed by Delhi-NCR, Chennai, Bengaluru and Pune receiving 29%, 14%, 11% and 5% respectively. Talking about this trend, Shobhit Agarwal, managing director-capital markets, at JLL India said, “The preference for these cities reflects learning from past experience. While investors remain cautious about which cities to invest in, what is interesting to observe is that the ratio of structured equity and debt was more than half of the total investments received.”

Rubi Arya, Executive Vice-Chairman, Milestone Capital Advisors anticipates equity deals to gain a foothold over the next two three years because of an expected increase in commercial  real estate funding due to instruments like real estate investment trusts. Arya said, “We have seen proven returns from such structures and will continue introducing products in this space for some more time. But from a safety viewpoint, structured debt will remain preferred route for investors.”

Core commercial assets are being preferred over asset classes such as residential, hospitality and retail for plain equity investments. The preference indicates how investors are circumspect despite being optimistic about major potential gains in real estate. Also, important has been the preference amongst investors to invest in projects of developers with a good track record and credibility.

While residential and office projects continue to be the focus for PE investors, entity-level investments and platform-level deals come into the limelight, indicating increase in investor confidence. The JLL report said that a total of Rs 6,048 crore worth of entity-level equity yes deals were witnessed. Deals such as Goldman Sachs and Warburg Pincus investing in Piramal Realty and Blackstone buying Alpha G:Corp aggregating to around Rs 4,000 crore were amongst the 10 entity-level investments witnessed in the year 2015.

In terms of asset focus, despite receiving a reasonable share of funding, residential projects have not received much from equity investment. At the same time, a significant sum of equity investments has been towards income-yielding office projects. Although residential and office will attract a majority of investments, retail is expected to soon gain a foothold in the market.

Buy Property in Mumbai

If you are looking for the best time to buy property and you are looking for the indicators in real estate market such as; price and sales, so you can say that in many cities property market could be head for a revival. As per the reports of RBI, the average prices of residential units have increased by 13.7 percent in 10 major cities of the country in the period of July to September 2015. If we will see the brokers sales reports, so we can easily say that sales in real estate market have got a boost too.

According to one of the most reputed developer, “We are going for the pre-launch of our project because buyers are lined up outside of the office to book a flat. And at this point of movement we are expecting some good sales and price in near future”. According to statement of Sanjay Dutt, MD of Cushman & Wakefield, India, “It doesn’t mean that in near future real estate market will witness a turnaround, but it is expected that the trend will sustain for the next 6 to 8 months and we can call it revival”. The more he added that there are contradictions in the data as there are many launches in real estate market where buyers and investors are frenzy to buy. In past few months office and commercial demand has picked up, which means city is creating new job opportunities and if it will sustain for next few months so there will be a turning point for the industry.

Why it’s good time to buy property?

According to real estate experts, if you are end user, so it’s good time to buy residential property. As per the statement of A S Sivaramakrishnan, Head of Residential Services at CBRE South Asia, “These days smart buyers are already scouting for a property, as these days realtors are still flexible with the demand of buyers”. In Mumbai there are more than 77,000 apartments are in the inventory, as per reports of JLL India and it is expected that it will take 11 to 12 quarters to clear off that inventory against a healthy expected cycle of 5 to 6 quarters, as per the statement of Ashwinder Raj Singh, CEO of Residential Services at JLL India. The more he added that there are chances that developers will not raise up their prices if the sales pick up because it can make buyers uncomfortable.

Apart from that there are some developers in city which are offering flexible payment option with attractive interest rates, but they are aiming to sell houses at little higher price than the rates prevailing in those regions. Ashutosh Limaye, Head of Research at JLL India, Don’t just go by the quoted rate of the flat because developers might offer little lower priced with some additional charges such as; club fee, and fee for other amenities. Apart from checking the track record¸ titles and approvals, its recommended to check the discounts, offers and schemes for different real estate developers before making any kind of purchase, as per the statement of Mudassir Zaidi, National Director of Residential Agency at Knight Frank.

If you are looking for the under-construction flats, so its recommended to take some time and evaluate the projects and ideally buyers should take 30 to 60 days to visit the site and check if the construction is happening as per schedule or not. If there is any kind of deficit, then better to stay away from that project. However; buyers can find the good deal for old flats, which was constructed 5 to 10 years ago. Apart from that if you are at real estate investor, so better to wait and watch for the trends and developments for next two to three quarters.

Real Estate Sector

Real estate experts believe that the 2016 will start with the positive note for real estate sector and in coming year it may witness pickup in the sales with improvement in the number of unsold inventories. In simple words we can say that year 2015 was little bit good for realty sector as it has witness some  regulatory changes, which will do the big impact in year 2016 as regulatory changes have relaxed the foreign direct investment laws, after the direct approval of Union Cabinet and it was much awaited Real Estate Bill. On Real Estate Bill there were mixed reactions from real estate experts, but broadly everyone sees it as a positive move as currently real estate sector is in sluggish mood.

As per real estate experts, In September the rate cut of 50 basis points by the RBI under monetary policy review will also increase the demand and supply in the real estate sector as well as government panel is also planning to bring seventh pay commission. As per the reports of Financial Express, “Investment in the real estate sector in 2015 was about $ 8 billion or Rs 53,000 crore and it was even year high even when the sector is not in a good shape. However; BSE Real Estate index also plunged by more than 16 percent on a year to date basis at the December 18. According to reports of Cushman and Wakefield private equity players have invested about $ 2.8 billion or Rs 18,700 crore in the real estate market till end September 2015. Add to that estimation $ 4.5 billion, or Rs 30,500 crore was of NCDs till the end of November 2015 and due to that the overall tally was up by 74 percent in comparison of last year which was about Rs 17,600 crore.

As per the statement of Anuj Puri, Chairman and Country Head of JLL India, “In past two years the real estate market is seeing some improvement and it has been adjusted to new trends in terms of aligning supply for relevant demand. The more he added that now real estate developers are paying more attention to the requirements of buyers and they are developing more property as per need of middle class which is in the price range of Rs 75 lakhs to Rs 90 lakhs in tier-I cities”.  According to Vikas Malpani, co-founder and Head of CommonFloor Groups, “The real estate bill approval is positive sign for real sector, which along with other trends could shape the real estate sector in 2016”. There are many experts, who are giving thumps up to the recently approved Real Estate Regulatory Bill as it can be helpful to clear the unsold inventory. We all know that whenever any new bill or law comes in the existence, the real estate developers tend to adopt a wait and watch approach. And due to that in present, the completions of existing projects are the prime focus of developers for some more months.

On the other side at the positive note the developers are focusing more on completing their existing projects as well as clearing the inventories and according to JLL India listed that following regions as the best bet for real estate sector in 2016; Noida & Greater Noida, Thane – Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), National Capital Region (NCR), Nagar Road – Pune, Whitefield – Bangalore, Navi Mumbai – Mumbai Metropolitan Region ( MMR), Viman Nagar and Kochi.

Now the overseas firms such as; APG, a Dutch Pension Fund Manager and Warburg Pincus, a US Buyout Group are looking for an opportunity to invest in the Indian warehouses with a hope to cash the demand for efficient and modern storage space as in past few years Indian has recorded great book in online shopping.

Godowns vs Warehouses:

In present the country’s logistics and warehousing sector is stretched to $ 110 billion as more and more Indians are coming online for shopping and other activities. Existing spaces, which was famous with a name “Godowns”, a low rise sheds with poor infrastructure and ventilation to ward off heat and dust are too old and out of dated for the retail giant such as; Amazon.com and its core rival Flipkart or Snapdeal. According to experts retailers never prefer to use these Godowns because on these places goods frequently get spoil or soiled. Apart from that now e-tailers are looking for the way to move their goods swiftly with minimal damage and due to that they demands for climate control, levelled loading bays, fire sprinkler systems and paved roads to warehouses. If you have existing warehouse, so after adding these facilities you can lift the rents by up to 20 percent, as per the statement of the JLL, a real estate firm.

Growth in e-commerce sector:

According to Ben Salmon, Head of Singapore-Based Assetz Property Group, “We have got many people around us who have bags of money, but not that much assets”. The more he added that Assetz Property Group has raised $ 50 million from Asian investors with an aim to buy warehouses on Indian soil. Meanwhile, e-commerce sector in India is booming and it is expected that by the end of 2025 the market will grow in terms of value of goods sold will be about by $ 220 billion and it is expected that for this years the value of goods sold will be $ 11 billion, as per the reports of Bank of America Merrill Lynch. Demand of these kinds of warehouses is good news for property developers in India as most of the real estate developers are doing business with high debt and struggling with sluggish residential sales. For the duration of 2009 to 2011, the office leasing was slower.

As per the estimates of JLL India, to satisfy the above requirements, the supply of modern warehouses in India can be get double by 2020 with 200 million square feet space, which will be fuelled by online retailers as they have already taken up 20 percent of the space in the first half of 2015. The more demand will push the rents which are about 156 rupees ($2.34) a square foot a year in some city outskirts, but this rent can go up by the 20 percent, as per analysts. Whereas; in present, the average annual returns In UK for industrial assets are expected to be 10 percent by next five years, as per the reports of Colliers International, a real estate firm.

Needed facilities in warehouses:

In New Delhi, there are many steel-framed, large and modern warehouses, which have ventilation as well as 24 hour security, but retailers and logistics firms are line up to serve the country’s capital. Amazon is one among other retailers, who want to own large, modern, white and red warehouse as Godowns are increasing their size from family garage to a basketball court. It is noted that Amazon India has leased more than 20 fulfillment warehouse centers where company is used to store goods and packs the orders from many different landlords. However; still company is looking for bigger, modern spaces with the average size of 200,000 square feet.

The e-commerce has attracted more than $ 1.5 billion through private equity funds since year 2011, as per the data of Venture Intelligence. Whereas; Embassy Group and Warburg are jointly planning to invest $ 250 million to lease, operate and build a portfolio of up to 20 million square feet of warehouses in next 5 to 7 years, as per the statement of Anshul Singhal, CEO of Joint Venture and Embassy Industrial Parks.

According to Sachin Doshi, Head of its private real estate investments in Asia Pacific, “APG is also looking for a local partner who can invest in the build logistics parks in India”. No doubt there are some basic challenges for investors who want to acquire land as ownership cannot be disputed. Major real estate developers like; Assetz is betting on buying larger existing warehouses in the market rather than building warehouses from the scratch. After previous investments, now Assetz is planning to raise $ 100 million to buy 10 million square feet of warehouses space.

RMZ Corporation Banglore

Essar is in initial negotiation stage with real estate developer RMZ Corp to sell its Equinox Business Park, which is located in Mumbai. According to sources the price of deal will be about Rs 2,400 crore, or $ 360 million. In recent years, this could be the biggest commercial real estate deal in the MMR region as billionaire brothers Ravi Ruia and Shashi Ruia are divesting their noncore assets to repay the debt of Essar.

Equinox Business Park, which owned by Ruia family is located adjacent to Bandra Kurla Complex and it is the house of leading market players such as; Nissan, Tata Communications, IDFC, Crompton Greaves and Lafarge and of course Essar companies as well. However; Bangalore based real estate developer RMZ Corp is backed by the QIA (Qatar Investment Authorit) and it is expected that it will pay about Rs 19,000 per sqft for Equinox Business Park, which is spread on an area of 1.2 million sqft. It is expected that RMZ will conclude the deal in tow equal stages over the period of six months. It will be 100 percent acquisition from both parties as both parties will meet certain milestones in their business. According to Manoj Menda, Vice Chairman of RMZ, “We confirmed the rumors of deal, but at this point of stage we cannot comment”, however; on the other side Essar declined any comment. According to statement of Anshuman Magazine, Chairman and Managing Director of CBRE for South Asia division, “This deal shows that how commercial real estate is generating interest among real estate developer, especially when it comes to core rental yielding assets. The risk associated with these kinds of properties is much lower than the fully constructed properties where there is no pressure of development and rentals”.

Currently, RMZ is managing about more than 20 million sqft of office space in different cities and now this real estate developer is looking for some large deals to acquire more space in commercial segment as RMZ aims to build a 80 million sqft portfolio in the next three to five years. RMZ’s this acquisition is one of the largest and latest among the series of high profile office space deals because some global investors such as; Brookfield Asset Management, GIC of Singapore, Canadian Pension Plan Investment Board¸ Middle East and Blackstone are over sign a funds to down transaction opportunities in the India. In last calendar year these global investors have acquired assets worth $ 3 billion. In present all the major global real estate developers seeing Indian real estate market as a golden opportunity as in India “Grade A Office” buildings are riding on a robust services economy. Anuj Puri, Chairman and Country Head of JLL India stated that in spite of different influences which shape up real estate markets in India, inherent equity of Mumbai as India’s financial capital remains undiminished and it is expected that it will continue to drive major decisions by large corporates and investment houses.

In December 2014, GIC of Singapore was acquired 69 percent stake in Nirlon and currently it is managing 2 million sqft office space in Goregaon suburb and its cost is Rs. 1300 crore. Apart from that we all know that last month pharma MNC Abbott was acquired .35 lakh sqft in one of the commercial tower at BKC which was developed by the Godrej Properties and cost of deal was about Rs 1,479 crore. It was considered as the biggest transaction for any single user commercial real estate in India.

However; Brookfield’s Unitech Corporate Parks acquisition was seen as the biggest acquisition in Indian office space market. However; it paid Rs 2050 crore for majority control of six parks in Kolkata and NCR. Apart from that with undisclosed amount they also buy 40 percent holding in Unitech.

Real Estate market of Mumbai

Now some of the buyers are finally returning to the real estate market of Mumbai, as real estate developers are offering 5 to 10 per cent discount and other offers as well such as; foreign trips, free parking space, free car, free AC and more. Now in Mumbai’s real estate market due to reduced size of apartments and falling interest rates now it’s easy to sale the residential property and now currently home sales in Mumbai is 28 percent more in comparison of last four quarters, as per the reports of JLL India.

According to the Ramesh Nair, COO of JLL India, This is the balance of factors as; interest rates are dropping and real estate developers are offering huge discount, freebies with attractive schemes, sizes of apartments are dropping to make the apartments more affordable, buyers are thinking that market is all time low and it have bottomed out and all these factors lead towards the overall marginal improvement in the confidence of customers”. However; as per the trend it’s clear that in few launches people prefer to buy residential units whereas; in broad market there is no progress. Local property markets are not convinced with the latest numbers and statement that real estate market continues to be sluggish and these numbers may or may not be reflect an improvement in end-user sentiments.

According to Yashwant Dalal, President, Estate Agents Association of India, “In present, resale segment is seeing thin volume and even in primary market new launches, financial institutions are underwriting inventories. The more he added that we have the last year numbers and this year its much more than the last year”. As per the JLL India report, “Real estate developers in Mumbai have managed to sell more than 16,990 units in new projects in primary market in the duration of last four quarters, which ended on the September 30. And in previous four quarters the sales of residential units were 13,290 apartments. In slow market it is the sign of improvement and it has released the pressure on real estate developers. Due to weak price and more supply than demand in the market, real estate builders are shying away from the launching of new projects. However; the new launches in the first six month of 2015, was declined by 26 per cent from a year ago. As per the local brokers, real estate builders would prefer to hold the supply as well as construction than reduce prices and incur losses.
According to real estate market expert JLL India is not expecting rise in the price of houses for next two to three years as still builders are focusing on the inventory cleaning. In past few months we have seen some price correction which happen in last quarter, but capital values have not gone up. According to local brokers, real estate developers would prefer to hold the supply and the construction in different projects to bring down the price and incur losses. However; real estate developers are maintaining affordability of apartments just by reducing the size of residential units with the average reduced size of roughly 6 per cent annually.

Performance in Stock Market:

There are many real estate developers which are listed in stock market such as; DB Realty, Oberoi Realty, Hubtown, Mahindra Lifespace Developers and Godrej Properties and they are operating in Mumbai. The hottest property markets in the country have declined by the rate of 214 per cent in the past one month. According to real estate analysts, the second half of the financial year will be better for the organized players as they are ready with new launches to erase the debut. As per the statement of Samar Sarda, Lead Analyst in Real estate Segment at the Kotak Institutional Equities, “The overall real estate market will continues to shrink and most organized developers will get the more growth and gain in terms of market share.
