Vyttila, Kundanoor flyover; the changing face of Kochi city

By ABAD Admin,

We have all heard the saying ‘No Gain without Pain’, and in any crowded city, the news of an upcoming construction project involving the arterial or branch roads evokes the same thoughts. Kochi is a city that has grown in importance in recent years, and earlier this year, residents felt a mix of happiness and sadness hearing some news. This news involves the proposed flyovers in two areas which see heavy congestion – Vyttila and Kundanoor. The Vyttila flyover had been announced first, and more recently, the civic authorities announced the start of the Kundanoor flyover project.

Kochi is no hamlet today, and its roads carry huge volumes of traffic. For example, Vyttila is the biggest intersection not only in Kochi but also in the whole of Kerala. 3 very important (and busy roads) S.A. Road, Petta Road and Thammanam Road intersect here, and this intersection carries thousands of vehicles every day. Similarly, Kundanoor might seem to be on the outskirts of Kochi as per a map, but because of the presence of two very important hotels in this area (Le Meridien and Crowne Plaza), it is a very busy area. So when the news of flyovers at Vyttila and Kundanoor came in, residents and businessmen of these areas were shocked and fearful of the impact the resulting traffic jams would create.

If we talk specifically about certain flats for sale in Kochi, then ABAD Golden Oak apartments in Maradu will really become very attractive once these flyovers are completed. The traffic on the existing roads will be reduced manifold after the flyovers are thrown open. This will save time for the residents of Golden Oak and also for people passing through those areas. Second, a well-constructed flyover gives a very good look to an area around Golden Oak. Third, the lighter traffic will greatly reduce the traffic mishaps in these two areas, which is a great thing for the city in general and Golden Oak residents in particular.

If you are looking for flats for sale in kochi, then we have a great suggestion for you. But before that, let us discuss a few things you should be considering when you plan to buy property in Ernakulam.

The first thing you need to decide on is the location or the city you will buy your property at. Kochi fits the bill perfectly, being a perfect amalgamation of the traditional and the modern. It offers tremendous potential for jobs as well as business ventures, which is why so many people are choosing to buy their property in this city.

The location of the project in the city is often an unwanted trade off with the spaciousness you need when you have a large family. If your required square feet area increases, and you also seek a convenient location, then the price shoots up.

Now we come to your need for a spacious apartment. Abad Reflections is a project from Abad Builders which will fulfil your need for a spacious apartment. It is located on one of the most favored areas of the blossoming city of Kochi. It has only two flats on each floor so that there is no compromise on the space provided.

Why Real Estate Is A Great Investment

By ABAD Admin,

The laws of demand and supply govern every activity of our life, not just economics. Whether it is the stock market or gold or real estate, prices and demand and the supply – they all have a relationship with each other. People flock to a particular commodity if its supply is less, whereas if the supply increases, then the demand for that commodity also reduces, along with its price.

But real estate, by its very nature (with land in the world being limited, and being used up daily, is one area where the supply keeps on diminishing over time, and therefore demand is always there. If you have an apartment in Kottayam or any other city of South India, you can easily sell it at a great price because there will be always demand for it. Let us look into real estate in more detail.

The best option in real estate is to buy villas and apartments in places which have continued growth, and then wait for the prices to rise so that you can make a neat profit by selling it. Or you can also use the owned property as your home. However, buying land plots is not a good option because if you are doing the construction by yourself, then you need to spend a lot of time with the architect, contractors, and laborers. In today’s hectic times, not many would be able to spare that kind of time.

So if you want to profit from the great investment opportunity of real estate but don’t have time to have your home constructed yourself, then you need to purchase ready made flats from reputable builders. A promoter or builder with an impeccable reputation will give you the happiness of a great investment without any of the hassles.
