For many
years, India's real estate sector has been in a slump. There has been no
significant increase in prices in the real estate sector for almost a decade.
This is called time correction. By time correction, it means that earlier the
prices were very high and now the prices are coming to a reasonable level. Time
correction also implies that the price remains in the same range. Prices are
not increasing. That is, in the coming time, the price spiral will end and the
real estate sector will start increasing prices.
There have
been many reasons why the real estate sector has not moved up over the years.
One big reason is that due to the investors, the prices have increased very and
very fast. For many years, investors kept selling apartments to each other at
maximum prices, and there came a time when the prices became too much for the
real buyer. Or say prices fell out of reach of the real buyer. The real buyer
is those who buy the house to live. In such a situation, there is a time of
price stability when the purchasing power of real buyers is slowly reaching the
level of prices.
With the
passage of time a large proportion of potential buyers will turn into genuine
buyers. Like other investments, real estate is different in the sense that
every family needs a house. When someone buys another house, he becomes an
investor and does so with all risks. Sadly, buying a home together with many
mental and financial reasons makes it a difficult task. This happens to most of
us. In a modern consumerist economy, every product seller tries to sell their
most expensive product. Similarly, real estate developers also try to sell
their dream home to every person. A great house that will entice anyone to buy.
A house in which the buyer has never lived before, but he has definitely
dreamed of buying such a house.
The problem
is that it costs too much. If you spend money on other things (like a car, watch
vacation etc.) then you can compensate it in a few months. But if you buy a
house of dreams, then it costs so much money that it can take you years to
recover from it. You and your family have to face difficulties in this period.
For some people, this shock is so strong that its effect is felt throughout
life. If you are going to make a big decision of your life then it becomes very
important that this decision be right. Homebuyers, however, make many mistakes.
But the most common among these is to put more financial burden on oneself to
buy a house. When the buyer goes to see the house, he falls into the greed of a
house which is out of its sheen. In this affair, the buyer spends more than his
budget. Many people later also have to bear the brunt of it. A general rule is
that the EMI of your home loan should not exceed one-third of the monthly
income of the family. If later you become more wealthy then you can sell your
house and buy a big and expensive house.
EMI culture
is a good thing for a consumerist economy, but if it makes one's dream house a
bad dream then it is not good.
