One of the basic needs of man is a roof over his head, and perhaps this is why we make a great deal of fuss over home ownership. When you have a house to come home to, when you’re able to pay your mortgage without too much difficulty, life certainly seems good. But there are those who have to look for rental options from time to time, either for personal or work-related reasons. And when such needs arise, a serviced apartment is worth much more than just any rental accommodation option, because:

• It feels like home: When you’re a corporate employee who is always on the move, you tend to rely on the tired of living in hotel rooms all the time. And this makes serviced apartments a boon to the weary traveler, especially if you have to stay for a certain period of time in locations of work. The extended period of stay makes hotel rooms an expensive proposition, whereas serviced apartments come with all the comforts of home. You can even bring your family to stay with you, thus saving yourself from coming home to an empty hotel room at the end of a long and tiring day.

• It is cost-effective: When you rent a serviced apartment, you can cook your own meals, even if they are simple ones like a bowl of cereal or eggs and toast for breakfast. You save a ton of money on food bills at restaurants and other miscellaneous expenses spent on snacks and drinks. You don’t feel like a stranger in a new place when you’re enjoying home-cooked meals in your own place. And with no room service to depend on, you cut back on the tips you have to shell out too.

• It comes fully furnished: Serviced apartments are better and more advantageous than a normal rented apartment or condo because they come fully furnished. This means you don’t have to waste time and money in looking for and equipping the place with appliances and furniture. Most serviced apartments come with basic necessities like a television, refrigerator, utensils and other knickknacks that you need for day-to-day life.

• You can entertain friends and colleagues: Serviced apartments allow you to play host to friends and colleagues even in strange locations. You are not cramped for space like in a hotel room and this means that you are free to enjoy social visits with your friends. A serviced apartment also offers more privacy and comfort than a hotel room.

When looking for a serviced apartment, check out the locality and costs before you sign on the dotted line. Ask the right questions so that you’re able to find the right temporary home for you.

In “Master plan Gurgaon 2021″ there has been the announcement of 56 new sectors, whereas the basic infrastructure in the existing sectors,{ announced several years ago} has not been fully completed.

With the aforementioned reasons, real estate scenario in Gurgan getting much confusing, as some of the prominent builders as well as new players have announced the projects in the sectors with their signboards amidst of “lush green field “{ without road & proper accessibility } displaying the “Promised Dream comforts”, where the signs of **basic infrastructure are not at all visible.

**{Basic Infrastructure include - Roads- Drinking water- Electricity- Sever disposal -Rain water/storm water disposal- Greenery & Plantation-Shopping& market}

Lured with low “Basic Price” and discounts offered, the buyer gets tempted to put their hard money at a stake.

Almost five years ago ,the Government of Haryana had put a ban in Gurgaon,on “Registration” of property falling under the category of Builder Floors/ Independent Floors (eg: Three Independent Floors built on Single plot) & it resulted into the following:

• Sale of Builder Floors/ Independent Floors carried out on GPA{ general power of attorney }, an unsafe property ownership title for the buyer.
• As GPA is not considered to be a legal instrument, the buyers would not get bank finance.
• The Government’s loss of revenue in terms of Registration charges & Stamp duty.

It is understood that after conducting in-depth study in this matter the Government has finally legalized the registration of “Builder floors/ independent floors”, constructed on plots by plot owners in colonies developed by private builders such as DLF,Unitech & Ansals etc. as well as colonies developed by Haryana Urban development Authority {HUDA}

It is further understood that in this recent directive the applicants may have to pay 1% of extra Stamp duty, covering the cost of ” Infra -structure up-gradation”
With this vital decision, it not only provides a sigh of relief to the owners of such properties, who have transacted the purchase on GPA{ general power of attorney }, but it has also generated positive results as following:

• With Registration, buyers of such properties will now become legal owners.
• Availability of bank loans.
• Gearing up/ boost in “Guraon Real estate” as the builders will be encouraged to build more of Independent floors considering the large demand for Independent floors.(with latent advantage of sale purchase of plots, positive improvement in “real estate prices in Gurgaon”)
• Over all benefit to the Government revenue growth.

The real-estate experts feel, that this decision, shall help towards mobilizing positive growth in the present sluggish real estate scenario.

In absence of regulatory authority or a governing body, the real estate activities in India had been in highly un-organized manner but with socioecnomic awareness the real estate sector is also moving toward a positive direction.

Professional attitude of real estate companies and the presence of MNCs like CB Richard Ellis,Knight frank, Chesteron Meghraj & fast growing trend of property portals like 99Acres, Magicbriks,Indiaproperties etc are the indicaters of a “Professional Real estate” of tomorrow.

Still there is a large section which remains unorganised and non-professional. Add on of property dealers and so called Property conultant, who neither have proper knowledge nor experience in this field are making this profession as “Third Rate”. They seem to be a preffered choice of that sectionof society that believes in parellal Economy, as both can understand each other’s language very well.

Real Estate is a backbone of every economy be it a developing economy or a developed economy. In most of the developed countries real estate is a organized sector with licensed real estate agents who act as a very important intermediary between buyer and seller. The real estate agents is a specialized and organized work in developed countries where proper licenses are issued to real estate agents after going through a training procedure.An un-organized sector with no regulating authority /governing body reduce the transparency in transactions make them shady, speculative with uncertain market conditions thus making it a distant dream, for a common man, to own a property

Remedies suggested:

• Form a governing body: It is very important to form a governing body whoch has direct influence on the real estate players and which can give direction to the real estate market for its growth. 
• Fix the brokerage: there should be fixed brokerage for sale, purchase and rent deals etc in the market and no broker should charge a price above or below the market rate at any time. The prevailing rate of sale and purchase is anywhere between .5% to 2% of sale/purchase price.
• Education: learning is a very important tool for innovation and growth of an industry. If an Insurance agent is needed to clear an IRDA paper, an mutual fund seller needs to pass an AMFI exam and even a stock broker needs to clear a minimum no. of papers in order to exercise hid ticket in the stock market. So it is very important to device a paper which has a mix of mathematics and legal issues so that a real estate agent has proper knowledge on various obstacles or legal issues which can surface in a deal.
• Give License and code: After an agent is able to clear his exam then he should be issued a real estate agent license along with a code eg. xxx1986xx. Each and every agent should be provided with a unique code which will ascertain his identity and thus lead to reduction of frauds by brokers to buyer/seller.
• Get them in the Tax net: As the real estate sector was unorganized thus there is high level of tax evasion by the real estate agents. There is a remedy to prevent this. The unique code given to the real estate brokers will be given registered on legal papers of the deal and the records of same can be given to IT department. As each and every deal will be registered the brokers will be bound to disclose their brokerage.
