The NRIs undoubtedly have a tie with India and it’s surely an emotional tie. If the NRIs want to buy any property for a long term purpose, the country that they remember first is India. The Indian realty boom has made the NRIs more eager to invest in their home land. There have been various surveys and reports by many and varied agencies, government bodies and private companies on the NRI’s interest in Indian property market. Out of all these there was a recent report published by ASSOCHAM, Associated Chamber of Commerce of India which has revealed that NRIs feel more confident about investing in Indian property market compared to few years back. We delve into the opportunities laid down to the NRIs in few of the sectors where there is low risk and there is an advantage too from the price point of view too.
Changes in the Indian Real estate sector
The Indian realty sector had been changing in the last one and half decade and accordingly the whole macro-economic environment of India has also undergone a change. In this spree of development, the tier 2 and 3 cities have undergone much of development with influx of various types of industries and sectors. These properties in these cities are comparatively cheaper than their counterparts in the established metropolis of the nation.
There is another important point that the NRIs need to remember is that they should target the ready-to-move-in properties rather than the under construction ones. There are realtors and developers who takes advantage of the absence of the NRIs and on top of that the under construction property will give an upper hand on the developer to do unnecessary delay which can go beyond the control of an NRI. In case the NRIs choose the constructed projects the risks of delay are totally nullified.
Investment in REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust).
REITs have added a new dimension to the real estate investment in India by the NRIs. This has allowed the NRIs to be a part of the Indian real estate growth story. The advantage is that the NRIs can still invest in the Indian property market without physically purchasing the property. Additional good news is that the REIT governed by SEBI will make it fairly transparent for them to participate.
