tends to give steady income and appreciate over time. The

simple mantra to live by when it comes to investments is

that “the early bird catches the worm”. Agreed that making

the right decision can be overwhelming. The choice

between what to invest in, which location to choose, what

are the current real estate trends, will the returns be good,

etc. can be a daunting task for anyone.

About this rule bookWhile real estate investments are a great option, it is

important to understand the reasons and importance of

making these investments. Once you are clear as to why

a certain investment option is better, the process

becomes easier.

The rules detailed in this booklet will give you a fair idea

on real-estate investing. You will understand whether to

choose residential or commercial based on your

requirements or investment goals, and what will work

for you better, the importance of location and so on.

This booklet is an initiative by the no.1 real estate

developer of Navi Mumbai – Akshar Group. Having

delivered over 77 lac sq. ft. spread between 25 residential

and iconic commercial projects across Navi Mumbai,

Pune and Ahmedabad.

So read on and discover how these simple rules can

change the way you invest and the returns that come

with it.

The average rental yield for Grade-A offices falls in the range of 6% to 10%, whereas the rental yields of a comparable residential property is in the range of 1.5% to 3.5% - over 3 times higher.^

Vacant Grade-A offices are extremely rare to find in Vashi due to no new developments, thus automatically generating a very high demand for it.

With increasing rental yields, consistent & high capital appreciation that will eventually match up to the EMIs, boutique offices are the best example of a self-paying asset.

It is a known fact that real estate appreciates over time. However, when it comes to commercial real estate in Navi Mumbai, Grade-A boutique offices have appreciated 2X over that of comparable residential assets, mapped since 2013.^

Commercial properties are the flag bearers of the real estate market today.

BOUTIQUE OFFICES IN NAVI MUMBAI GOING STRONG!

Boutique office spaces in Navi Mumbai, especially in Vashi have

outperformed the residential properties by a big margin.

Demand vs Supply: The most critical factor to consider when investing in real estate.

Thanks to the rapid developments in Navi Mumbai, Vashi – its no.1 commercial hub has gained even more importance, resulting in a demand-supply imbalance in the market.

Businesses & investors alike in the current scenario have no easy access to new Grade - A Boutique Office spaces in the heart of Vashi.

High demand:Vashi is the most desired business address of Navi Mumbai given the advantages that if offers. Businesses that moved or were set up in early 1990’s and 2000’s in Vashi are still operating from the same office space and very rarely will you find anyone moving out of here, that is the business impact this location has offered.

Low supply:Majority of the commercial developments in Vashi are already old or tremendously expensive. Due to lack of space for something new to come up, there has been no new supply in the market for the last 5 years.

Unfulfilled need:Businesses have been craving for new Boutique offices in Vashi. As their demands are not getting fulfilled many have already moved to the outskirts of the city to less-desirable locations.

Perfect opportunity:If and when a new inventory of Boutique office space is launched in Vashi, it will create the perfect scenario for investors to buy at attractive launch prices with guaranteed high returns on his investment.

Investing in a Boutique office space in

Vashi presents a great opportunity for

both investors and business owners to

prosper and make exponential gains.

Ambitious and new age businesses of today demand a lot more from their workplace.

While businesses are trying to get everything right for their business, one of most critical aspects of this is the address itself. An address that portrays them in the right light to all their customers, partners & investors.

Last but not the least are the internal customers – employees of the company. Today’s workforce expects better work environment and it is important for businesses to pay keen attention to their needs to ensure that there is a balance between the work they do and the kind of environment they provide.

The Address:To put it simply, the address of your workplace defines your businesses and your brand. It helps you create the first and a lasting impression for the outside world.

Global influence:In a connected world, employees are seeing smarter and modern work cultures globally and expect the same from their employers in India.

Freedom to do more: Restricted work environments are a define NO for today’s younger generation. Workplaces with a mix of open spaces and social amenities allow a great work-play culture which helps in improving the productivity tremendously.

Getting the basics right: Older developments cannot be upgraded, and they can not offer the modern workplace that most employees seek. Many such older developments in Vashi don’t even offer basic facilities like parking, uninterrupted power & water supply.

Investing in a world-class commercial address is extremely

beneficial for the business and helps in satisfying the new age

employee needs too.

One can form an opinion about a developer brand based on several

parameters like on-time-delivery, highest customer satisfaction and their

brand promise. Something that a brand like Akshar Group delivers on,

consistently.

Always invest in a real estate project backed by a strong developer brand.

The bigger and more well-known real estate brands are known for their quality and value for money. They have built their brand around a strong philosophy and are invested in their customers as much as their brand name.

A project from a brand like Akshar Group, is ideal for investment as they have successfully delivered several projects and achieved success through many years of customer-focused approach.

Promises delivered:Akshar Group with more than 23 years of experience has delivered over 77 lac sq.ft. of completed spaces across Navi Mumbai, Pune and Ahmedabad.
