Tips to Examine Construction Quality

admin Leave a comment

Every monsoon brings us, news about collapsing roofs and walls that flood us with worries about the quality and longevity of our homes. As a home buyer, you wouldn’t buy a home that’s placed in an unsafe building. Also, as a developer, you never want to compromise on the quality of your constructions and the dwellings you build.

Hyderabad continues to witness a boom in the demand for plots and homes. There has been a rise in the number of residential as well as commercial spaces that are now dotting the city and its suburbs. The real estate sector in the city of the Nawabs has recorded a smart recovery despite the pandemic in the last year, with the real estate segment especially outperforming others.

As the demand for housing and apartments in the city grows, it becomes imperative to ensure that the dwellings are of standard quality to ensure everyone’s safety. Besides, investing in property involves a significant amount of money, and it is, therefore, the prerogative of also the buyers to seek and analyse every minute detail that goes into the construction of their homes.

Here are a few tips which would help both developers and buyers gauge the quality of construction.  

  1. Check soil quality:
        
    The strength of your foundation is determined by the quality of the soil it is built on.  Soil differs from region to region. Certain soil types do not support high-rise buildings, and if this isn’t assessed timely, the foundation can even collapse. The first step, therefore, is to check the characteristics of the ground soil on which the structure is built. 
    As buyers, don’t forget to demand a copy of the report and ensure that the foundation isn’t compromised. 

  2. Ensure that the design of structure is verified:
        
    The basic structural design of a building is a key aspect to consider while inspecting the quality of construction. The structure and accurate placement of walls, beams, columns, and roofs bring about the stability and strength of a building. They must be built to ensure maximum safety and rigidity to the building.
    As a layman, it would be difficult to understand all of this, which is why home buyers should not hesitate to take expert third-party opinions on this aspect.
  • Assess the concrete mix:

    This is one of the most important parameters to the quality of construction. Make sure that the concrete mix is of good quality. The strength of the concrete mix used for construction determines the load-bearing capacity of the building.  It is hence crucial to ensure that superior quality concrete is used in optimum ratio with sand for construction. Also, make sure the plaster is of standard thickness.
    When buying a home, buyers can quickly assess the quality of concrete used by driving a nail into the wall. Knock on the walls to get an idea of their hollowness and width.
  • Look out for Emergency exits, fire safety measures:

     Safety and security are extremely important. These are the driving factors for the safety of dwellers and should be taken care of.  Ensure that the emergency exits are easily accessible to all, robust fire safety measures are in place and aren’t compromised.  Further, make sure that the elevators have power (DG) backup, are well maintained and if the building is earthquake resistant.

Buyers should make sure all these measures are intact when buying a home. Ask for a copy of the license and maintenance of the elevator as taken by the developer. Also, look out for the elevator ratio in the residential project. 

  • Check for leakages, seepages and cracks:

Cracks in walls are a big no! Similarly, blocked drains, leakages through walls, and water seeping through the floor led to faster aging of your construction. They also highlight other problems with the construction that cannot be overlooked.
Buyers should look around the property for cracks, and check whether the bathrooms have any existing leakages before buying.

A number of problems with construction can be avoided solely through observation and quality checks. Following these tips would ensure you have a safe home for your family.


At TMR Group, we make sure that quality lies central to our projects. We undertake timely steps to ensure you have a home that is your safe haven. The Phase-I of the project at Chegunta is already sold out and stands witness to this fact.

Property Value in Telangana on the rise!

admin Leave a comment

Telangana has suddenly become a superstar of sorts and investors, homebuyers alike are interested to invest in this hot destination. Why this popularity all of a sudden? The state government recently announced a hike in property prices by 25-50%. While the values of residential apartments have been increased by 25%, the agricultural lands and plots are bound to witness an uptick of 50% in their price. This price rise is expected to bridge the gap between the open market rates and the registration rates fixed by the government. So, is this good news or bad news? This article would explore the details.

The Current Status – In Numbers

The decision to hike the property rates would significantly impact the real estate industry, especially in and around Hyderabad’s vicinity. For instance, the market prices at Shankarpally have been increased by 40% to INR 2,800 per square yard. In micro-markets such as the Kondapur-Gachibowli region, the prices have been hiked from INR 14,000 per square yard to INR 26,000 square yards. Similarly, in Kokapet, the current price is now fixed at INR 14,400 per square yard, previously which was at INR 10,000 per square yard. The highest price was witnessed at Puppalguda at 50% with new market prices fixed at INR 21,000 per square yard.

In comparison to the last year, housing prices in Hyderabad have spiked by 7%. After average-price appreciation, Hyderabad is now currently the second-most expensive housing market after Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR). There’s no surprise that the reason behind the property price rise is the pandemic. It is the primary reason why the cost of construction materials has gone up and has impeded the supply chain process.

The Future Scenario

As of now, the trend seems to be picking up in the real estate fraternity and most real estate developers are making hay while the sun is shining. The officials of Telangana have further divided these properties into three crucial segments to decide the extent of the hike. All property price revisions have been implemented based on this model.

The real estate developers in Telangana are still anxious about this decision as it arrived after the recent rise in stamp duty charges. Recently, the stamp duty was increased from 6% to 7.5%. The state is now expecting to double its revenue from registrations of properties.

This might be a welcome move to the real estate developers, but the homebuyers need to bear the brunt of the price rise whatsoever. While the recent festive season had a visible impact on demand as well as supply, Hyderabad has been witnessing a rather moderate yet positive change in the Hyderabad housing market. Hoping that the economy settles in, and provides buyers with higher job security, the recovery process in the real estate sector might gather more momentum in the coming year.

At TMR Group, we believe that every customer deserves to get worthy returns on their investment and that’s the reason we have launched our second phase of TMR Green Meadows, Chegunta. With our Phase-I completely sold out with 150 plots and 30,000 square yards, the response has been rather overwhelming. Now is the right time to own a residential open plot in the future of a flourishing destination that’s close to Proposed Regional Ring Road and on NH44 & AH43.

MNCs have a sweet tooth for land parcels in Hyderabad!

admin Leave a comment

Investment scenes in the Land of the Nawabs are seeing a sudden uptick. Hyderabad has once again become the hotspot for investors and the trend is set to go upwards in the future. Though the second and third waves impacted the real estate industry, along with other industries, the businesses have bounced back and how! They have been recovering from the losses and making it up with a phenomenal speed. The investment in the pharma sector especially is getting much notice as compared to other industries in Hyderabad. Why is that? The article sheds some light on the reason why companies have suddenly gotten a sweet tooth for land parcels in Hyderabad.

Prescription for Growth

The pharmaceutical industry in India has witnessed a double-digit growth of about 15% last year, thanks to the increasing demand for COVID-19 products. This has resulted in pharma companies looking to expand their business and set up new facilities.

That has given rise to the growing demand for agricultural land and the prices have gone up by 40-80% in the last couple of years, while residential plots in the core areas have seen an upward trend of 50% price appreciation. However, even the government auction has seen interest from pharmaceutical companies. Hyderabad has also witnessed some of the big pharma players investing in setting up research and development units.

A Window of Opportunity

Tech-giant, Microsoft recently made rounds in the news for planning to establish its largest and fourth data centre in India at Hyderabad. An investment worth INR 15,000 crore that would span across 15 years, has been proposed.

While the investment in the data centre is worth INR 15,000 crore, the company has acquired three land parcels worth INR 275 crore. The land parcel acquired in Makeguda is about 22 acres and INR 40 crore, 41 acres in Shadnagar worth INR 164 crore, and 52 acres in Chandenvelly worth INR 72 crore.

The new data centre in Hyderabad is set to deliver advanced data security and cloud solutions to boost enterprises, startups, real estate developers, the education sector and government institutions.

In recent news, in the state of Telangana, which was affected by the pandemic, the government decided to auction unutilized land parcels and mobilize funds for the development of the state. Telangana had lost about INR 50,000 crore in the first wave and another INR 3,000 to 4,000 crore in the second wave along with pending arrears from the centre.

At TMR Group, the 50 acres gated community at Chegunta is all geared up to welcome investors into its second phase. The first phase had an overwhelming response. 150 plots and 30,000 sq.yds were sold out in a record time. Our second phase is open for bookings and it’s time for you to take the first-mover’s advantage and own your piece of land in the upcoming investment hub of Hyderabad which is close to Proposed Regional Ring Road and on NH 44 and AH43.

Ways to avoid “House Flipping”

admin Leave a comment

Owning a property can be a tricky affair. With the number of documentation processes, legal processes and property-related processes, a commoner is bound to end up being confused about the overall phenomenon. It’s not only related to an individual who is interested in buying a property, but it also happens with most of the investors who tend to make some of the most common mistakes while buying a property. One of those common mistakes is “House Flipping”. No, it doesn’t mean the individual flip the house upside down. That would be a literal translation of the phrase.

Decoding the term ‘House Flipping’ for a layman would be – buying a property with an intention to resell and make profits, and not for personal use. This article would tell you how one can avoid those mistakes of ‘House Flipping’.

Avoid paying too much money for the materials: While we feel that contractors do not use the money paid to them for buying quality materials, you end up buying them yourselves without having a proper understanding of the details about the materials. This results in excessive expenses.

Avoid buying a super-expensive property: We might feel that buying an expensive property would fetch us even bigger returns, but there are too many variable factors that need to be considered and this move can backfire critically.

Avoid buying a property that you are not well aware of: If you are not well-versed with the location, with the developer or the audience profile of that particular place, it is best to leave it to the experts or consult one before buying. Jumping into the dark can only leave you either feeling adventurous or in a loss.

Avoid adding cheap properties to your cart: Assuming that properties that are cheap or inexpensive always end up burning more holes in your pocket than actually expensive ones. Usually, inexpensive properties cost less because of several factors such as the size of the property, developer (if they are new in the market), competitive pricing to penetrate the market and so on. Such decisions on buying property need to be made wisely.

Avoid paying for extra help: Sometimes we feel that we need to consult more than one expert if we are buying a property that has a huge potential for returns. We add consultants, brokers, resale property owners and so on. The phrase – too many cooks spoil the broth, holds well in this condition.

To avoid common mistakes of ‘House Flipping’ like these, one can often approach an expert in the business and stick to one who is reliable, trustworthy and has a deep understanding of the know-how in the industry.

At TMR Group, we are proud to have a dedicated team of experts who can guide you to own a property that would fetch you potential returns and help you grow. TMR Green Meadows at Chegunta is one such project where you can invest in a 50 acres gated community that’s close to the proposed Regional Ring Road and has seamless connectivity to NH44 & AH43. India’s one of the biggest upcoming furniture SEZ is about to mark its presence in Chegunta and the location is soon set to become the Tourism Hub of Hyderabad.
