Adding value to your property


The real estate markets are uneven. Depending on the location, size, amenities and superiority, the value is assigned. In order to exaggerate prices any of these aspects can be remodeled.

With the boom in IT industry, several properties were built to suit the business needs and their construction created a marvelous view. As the markets went down because of the US recession, it caused mammoth impact on the Indian real estate as well.

New constructions for commercial purposes are on the rise. It has been a predominant trend to set up the world’s best business centers, often campus-style establishments bearing a distinguishing corporate stamp. Some of these locations are so distinctive that they are termed as the ’temples of new India’. It is just an indication of the extent to which the development of real estate has been taking place.

Remodeling your property by installing contemporary products and designs definitely adds to the value. But sometimes these investments hardly matter as it does not affect the rate by a great extent. Hence it is sometimes advisable to minimize the investments on a property you are about to sell. You can save that money to invest in your new home.

An undisputed piece of land that is a safe and propitious investment will have more buyers. Investors want to avoid any illegalities as it can pull them into long trials.

While buying a property, apart from the property, the buyer gains some knowledge about the neighbors. Hence if the neighborhood is congenial then it is more inviting. Home is where you come to relax and be yourself. If you are surrounded by bad neighbors, then it can causes interruptions in your serene life.

If the rates of the adjacent property rise, then even your property gains momentum. In the same manner if the adjoining property rates fall, even your rates fall though you have the best property. Hence one factor influences the other.

Value is added when you exemplify your services by giving the best property and at the best location.

Encroachment-not a serious offence

Encroachment refers to entering or inhabiting a property without prior permission. The government officials have not been austere in this matter as breaking the encroachment law is a common scenario. We have seen shops which extend their premises beyond the boundary limit. When one person breaks the rule, several others follow.

The shop owners believe that by paying a little extra to the police officials they can conceal their illegalities and this practice has been prevalent from ages. An offender friendly legal system is designed so that one can ditch the officials and prove their property to be legal.

A recent issue that was sworn in by the media and the government is the encroachment of forest land to build residential buildings. The residents were flabbergasted to know that their house is on a forest land though they had no complications while acquiring the property. Some banks blocked the loan procedures leaving the individual handicapped and trapped. The government has passed out cautioning not to create third party rights on disputed lands.

Action has been taken but it is not contemplative or stern enough that it would stop others from doing the same.

For Sale by Owner (FSBO)



When individuals chose to sell their property they either contact an agent or propagate themselves. When the owner decides to handle everything single handedly, the costs or commission that an agent demands is nullified.

Propaganda via internet or newspaper helps acquire multiple responses. You can find out the appropriate price of your land or apartment either from the internet or by collecting information about other properties similar to yours.

When both the buyer and the seller decide to work for a property on their own the expenses are highly reduced. If the buyer opts for an agent, the owner may or may not pay the agent depending on his own will. No agent can enforce the owner to pay commission. In such a situation, the buyer will have to pay all the commission that the agent demands.

If one is not well equipped with knowledge about properties, then it is advisable to first research and find out the righteous costs and then exhibit the value.

A definite way of increasing sale price is providing warranties. Home warranties reduce the concern that a buyer may have regarding the quality of land they are investing into. This gives them an assurance that their decision is unmistaken.

The concept of FSBO is highly rewarding as there is no involvement of a third party. The sole beneficiaries are the owner and the buyer.

In-house notary public

By definition, a Notary Public is an impartial public officer, charged with administering oaths, witnessing signatures, and authenticating documents. He may not be a gazetted officer but is appointed by the government to supervise these legal formalities in order the curb illegalities and altercations.

Every company has to go through many legal formalities on a daily basis. The contracts that they sign need to be administered. A third party who can be unbiased while making decisions and support what is right according to the law is mandatory.

Certain companies have in-house notary public as it is more convenient. This economizes the costs as well as the company’s time. The in-house notary is more accustomed to a particular company hence he is aware of it s work culture. The pace of completion of a task is thus enhanced and you can get quick results.

The drawback of an in-house notary public is that he can be partial towards his own company. Falsified documents, notarizing documents not signed in the presence of the Notary Public, or notarizing incomplete documents can take place if the Notary public is prejudiced.

By using the services of an outside Notary Public who has no vested or financial interest in the transaction and is not employed by either part signing the documents, the appearance of impartiality on the part of the Notary Public will remain intact.

Designing one’s Apartment

It is said that your home describes your personal characteristics. An elegant home portrays an aristocratic or organized nature of a person. A cluttered home says that the person is lazy, ignorant or having enough on their plate.

The words associated with ones home are relaxation, serene, stress-free, adulation and so on. One longs to get back to their home after a tiring day at work and the sight of returning makes every person happy. If your home is designed to suit your needs, then the level of connection and attachment is enhanced.

When you get the homes designed by an interior decorator, he/she studies the intricacies of your needs and interestedness and develops a project that will be appealing to one and all. By definition the trade of planning the layout and furnishings of an architectural interior is known as Interior Decoration. The decorator performs statistical analysis of the interior and sketches a picture that would be suitable to his/her client.

Depending on the budget the quality of products and services are chosen and a detailed bifurcation of funds is maintained. The drawback here is the immense amount of cost for developing a project and it can be repetitious and wearisome. The surroundings tend to look more of a hotel than home. Thus it becomes necessary to draw a plan that emits all these shortfalls and makes your home look like a home.

Characteristics of a deed


A deed is a signed and sealed legal document which can come into effect while transferring a property from a grantor to a grantee. It is a mutual agreement that ensures that both parties have willingly opted for a task.

A deed can be regarded as a deed if the document clearly mentions that “this is a deed.” It can be regarded as contract-like but some of its aspects differ from a contract. The basic difference is that it does not require a consideration. Considerations are certain elements that both the parties offer or demand before signing a deal.

A deed can also be used when an existing tenant leaves a property prior to the termination date and handles the property to a new tenant.

A third party beneficiary can be allowed to take undertaking in the deed. Thus the doctrine of privity cannot be imposed in this case. Another disparity is that the liability limitation period of a deed can be double that of a contract.

The deed includes the following characteristics:

-Presence of a witness and a competent officer is essential for the deal to come true.

-Also a seal to define the authentication of the document is embossed.

-Existence of outgoing and remaining tenants

-Address of the property under consideration

-Date and other obligations to be followed.
