.
From the Chairman’s desk The Real Estate industry finally has some good news with the Real Estate Regulation and Development Bill finally getting approval from the Union Cabinet. The Bill will provide uniform regulatory environment to ensure the speedy jurisdiction of disputes and orderly growth of the Real Estate sector. It will also give the much needed boost to domestic and foreign investment in real estate sector and help us achieve the government’s objective of “Housing for All” by enhanced private participation. Since the bill will restore the confidence of the consumers by institutionalizing transparency and accountability in real estate and housing transactions, the sector will have an access to capital and financial markets. With the increasing transparency in the processes and procedures, it is time for professional global players like us to outshine in this market scenario.
here for being a super mentor in supporting Haider in all his achievements. Talking about achievements, I would also like to mention about the 8th Annual Estate Awards and Summit happening this month organized by Franchise India which is co-presented by RE/MAX India. I would like to invite all our Affiliates to the summit and the awards ceremony and you can also nominate yourself for various awards categories in the event. Another proud achievement in the month of November has been from the team of RE/MAX Punjab A, Punjab B and CMP. The team did wonders in terms of the sales of the WTC projects in their region and was amongst the star performers winning a Harley Davidson and a Royal Enfield as a result of the hard work put in at all the levels. I would personally like to wish them all the very best and I look forward to much more of achievements coming from their and all our regions. Last but not the least a very warm welcome to all the new Affiliates that have joined the RE/MAX family. I would like to wish you all the very best for this new journey and hope that RE/MAX will do wonders for you in your Real Estate business.
The limelight this month was taken by Mhd. Haider from RE/MAX Complete Solutions for his stupendous performance by making into the top 100 International Individuals in terms of residential commission earnings. RE/MAX India is super proud of the efforts, dedication and hard work of Haider which has made him shine amongst the global RE/MAX network. . I would like to make a special Cheers! mention of Mr. Harish Magon, Broker Sam Chopra Owner RE/MAX Complete Solutions over

From the Vice Chairman’s desk The month of November has been super active for the RE/MAX network in different parts of the country. The newly launched region of RE/MAX Uttar Pradesh – Central not only signed new Broker Offices but also conducted a grand Discovery Day to increase the affiliate count in their region; the RE/MAX Punjab team did outstanding sales for one of the projects of WTC in their region and got recognized as the star performers during their launch show, the regional team of RE/MAX Rajasthan – 1 actively promoted the Business Opportunities with RE/MAX through various social media platforms, the newly signed Broker Office in RE/MAX Mumbai also conducted a grand Discovery Day and promoted the business opportunities with RE/MAX through mediums like newspaper advertisement, e-mail and what’s app blasts, hoardings etc and so on. It gives us immense pleasure when we see all our affiliates making all these efforts to promote RE/MAX and thus change lives of many who get associated with us. I would like to make a special mention of the sales team of RE/MAX India who puts in equal efforts in ensuring that all these activities yield good results for our affiliates. They have not only been supporting them remotely but also have been travelling to different regions to mentor them. Another special catch in the newsletter is the spotlight section where my team did a special interaction with RE/MAX Realty Solutions, RE/MAX North Gujarat which is also the #1 Broker Office in India. It was an absolute pleasure reading how beautifully their team works in making their Open Houses a great success and a highly talked about event where ever it is conducted. I personally feel
that all our offices should also initiate such activities to enhance their transactions and create success stories in their respective regions. Marketing in Real Estate can do a lot of wonders and I am sure that when you read the spotlight section, you will be able to take away a lot of learning’s on how simple online and offline mechanisms can help you sell faster. There is a lot of good news on the way for the Real Estate sector the first one being the approval of the Real Estate Regulation and Development Bill. Indian realty sector is finally on its way of being more organized and professional and this is what RE/MAX has always supported and promoted. We are hopeful that the coming year will bring back cheer to our sector and I would like to wish our network all the very best.
Season's Greetings and Best Wishes for a Very Happy New Year!

Realty Bytes Why investment in realty is logical in sluggish markets The global share markets are quite volatile, and despite India's positive mid-to-long term economic outlook, it is not untouched by these choppy waters. A lot of hardwon investor wealth has been eroded in the recent past. In these uncertain market conditions, it makes sense to regenerate one's faith in real estate investments which can fortify and enhance capital. Though the real estate industry has been going through hard times for more than a year now, the hardship is primarily from the sellers' point of view. For buyers, Indian real estate is more lucrative than it has ever been before. Here's why real estate can prove to be the best investment proposition today, provided that the buyer chosen a good location and reliable developer, and has done a detailed due diligence of the deal. LUCRATIVE DEALS Developers are sitting on a huge amount of unsold inventory that is affecting their cash flows and eroding profitability. Moreover, price growth has been more or less flat in the major Indian cities for more than a year. To break out of this deadlock, players are offering handsome discounts and buyer-friendly home loan deals that can actually make a lot of sense in today's market conditions. In short, this is a buyer's market.
A STABLE ASSET Unlike the share market, which is speculative and highly volatile, real estate market is quite stable. Even if the value of property comes down, it is a gradual process and over a long period of time. This presents a much more favourable scenario than the equity market, which changes its position several times a day. In this sense, real estate investment remain rock solid, even in adverse market conditions with an extreme scenario of a nominal loss. THE ADVENT OF SMART CITIES The government has recently announced the list of cities it wants to develop into smart cities. Of course, it will take a few years to initiate the process and complete these undertakings. However, the real estate market operates on anticipatory sentiment, so the property markets in those cities will start showing more buoyancy almost immediately. This means that real estate investments there will yield better returns in the long run, no matter how the share market performs.

Also, with major metros expanding to accommodate the influx of more and more citizens, new projects are constantly being announced at the outskirts of the identified smart cities. One can currently strike very lucrative deals for the right kind of assets by reputed developers operating in these areas, and secure investments that will bring handsome returns in medium to long term.
definitely a better scenario than investments in a volatile share market or other investments A Tangible Asset The final and most decisive rationale for real estate investment is the fact that property is a fixed asset that one can touch, see, feel and put to work. One can either occupy it or rent it out, but it is at all times available for every kind of physical verification. Real estate becomes a part of one's legacy, which can be passed on to the next generations of one's family. Even though the investment required for real estate is larger than most other instruments, both the returns and assurance of a tangile, physical and performing assest are all the time more than consummate with initial outlay.
RENTAL INCOME OPPORTUNITY Property purchased in current scenario can be used to generate rental income while its potential selling price appreciates over time - or, in a worst-case scenario, remains at status quo at the purchase price. As a lot of people are desisting from buying new properties in the hope that prices will come down, or simply because they To summarize...
