FAQs on Buying Properties – Challenges & Solutions
Financial Challenges
Your budget should include the property price, stamp duty, registration fees, maintenance, and interior costs. Ideally, your EMI should not exceed 40% of your monthly income.
Apart from the property price, you need to consider stamp duty, registration fees, GST (for under-construction properties), maintenance charges, parking fees, brokerage, and legal fees.
Maintain a high credit score (750+), compare loan offers from multiple banks, negotiate processing fees, and opt for floating interest rates if suitable.
Most banks require at least 10-20% of the property value as a down payment. A higher down payment reduces your loan amount and EMI burden.
Use an EMI calculator to check monthly payments based on loan amount, interest rate, and tenure. Ensure your EMI is within 40% of your income for financial stability.
Market & Investment Challenges
It depends on market trends, location, and interest rates. If property values are stable and loan rates are low, buying now is a good option.
Compare similar properties in the same area, check past price trends, and get a valuation from a real estate expert.
Popular investment zones in Mumbai include Bandra, Andheri, Goregaon, Thane, Navi Mumbai, and Lower Parel due to infrastructure growth and rising demand.
Risks include project delays, financial instability of the builder, legal disputes, and unexpected cost escalations. Always check RERA registration before investing.
Buy in high-demand areas, ensure good connectivity, and choose a property with modern amenities. A well-maintained home with clear legal titles sells faster.
Legal & Documentation Challenges
Check the title deed, sale agreement, encumbrance certificate, possession certificate, and RERA registration before purchasing.
RERA (Real Estate Regulatory Authority) ensures transparency, timely possession, and protection for home buyers from fraud. Always verify the property’s RERA status.
Verify ownership documents, builder’s approval, clear land title, government NOCs, and whether the property is free from legal disputes.
Get an Encumbrance Certificate (EC) from the sub-registrar’s office to check for any legal claims or pending loans on the property.
While not mandatory, a real estate lawyer can help verify documents, check legal clearances, and ensure a smooth transaction.
Property & Developer Challenges
- New Property: Modern amenities, flexible payment plans, but longer possession time.
- Resale Property: Immediate possession, lower cost, but may require renovation.
Inspect the construction quality, ventilation, amenities, builder reputation, connectivity, and nearby facilities before making a decision.
Check their RERA registration, past project deliveries, customer reviews, and whether they have legal approvals.
Buy only RERA-registered properties, verify legal documents, avoid unverified brokers, and make payments only through bank transactions.
If the builder fails to deliver on time, RERA allows buyers to claim a refund or compensation. Check the agreement for penalty clauses.
