as adequately connected to the outside world through sea, air and
road as Cochin, in Kerala,it is actively competing to become a main
center in India, for information technology (IT)
and software related activities Moreover different institutions,
both government and private, are now planning to

continued its evolution as specialized real estate sectors, attracting

Fashion City, Kerala

If
the current demand & price movement for real estateacross Ernakulam is any indication, then investing
in real estate would be a viable proposition. The dilemma revolves
around the options available for an investor and those that will
have an edge over others. Residential property is on a high
pitch but the yield is relatively less when compared to
commercial property in Kerala. Areas like Marine Drive and Kakkanad
in Cochin, offer immense scope for investment due to their closeness
to IT parks and ports, according to property consultants. Make your
investments through Commercial space or apartments. That will secure
your future and you can earn more and more. Purchase of good Commercial
space in good areas of Cochin , will lead you to success.
With a continuous stream of MNCs, this commercial
city of Kerala, is witnessing an unprecedented demand.
If a large MNC or IT park, set up in Cochin, it brings in 1000s
of people. Even assuming only 50 percent of the work force would
migrate from out side the city to Cochin, there will be a huge demand
for housing like apartments and flats. Established MNCs and large
corporate have been gradually expanding their operations in the
city. It is the overall confidence level created by the city that
will lure more such companies to Ernakulam.
Preference
to Apartments over houses in Kerala :
Living in apartments is gaining
popularity, particularly among higher-income households. The times
are changing, and owning a house is no longer a universal dream.
These days people prefer apartments and flats to houses because
of the convenience associated with life in apartments.
Apartments ensure proper maintenance, security, uninterrupted supply
of water and stand-by electricity system. A management office takes
care of maintenance and security for the apartments.
Thus having a central maintenance means not having to hire an external
plumber or electrician for minor problems. Apartments and flats
offer access to amenities and technologies not
available or affordable in single-family homes. It is uniquely qualified
to address many of our most pressing needs
The various benefits apartments offer to a community are helping
to reduce sprawl, conserve resources, preserve green space and reduce
demand on public resources. Apartments create value for all citizens,
including owners.
Today's population is more comfortable with the idea of living in
apartments than at any time in the last 50 years. The rapid increase
in the demand for higher quality residential space
in Kerala could be attributable to the following reasons:
a) The middle class sector's rise in disposable incomes and expectations
levels.
b) Accommodation for expatriate employees of the various companies
coming to Cochin.
c) Expansion of Indian Corporates, MNCs and IT Parks.
d) Long term investments from NRI's into real estate sectors like
residential & commercial projects in Kerala.
