The affordable home is showing signs of taking off in a big way with big developer brands. Affordable housing segment receive big boost with provident housing, a wholly owned subsidiary of Puravankara projects, launching its first such projects in Bangalore “Provident Welworth City” on Yelahanka Doddaballapura Main Road in Bangalore.
The project comprises of Stilt, Ground and Seven floors. Provident Welworth City offers 2 & 3 BHK apartments sizes varying from 845 sq. ft. to 1180 sq. ft. Prices for apartment start at Rs 14.90 lakhs for 2BHK (845 sq. ft) and goes up to Rs 18.90 lakhs for 3BHK (1180 sq. ft.). The property boasts of amenities like lifts, playing area, swimming pools, gyms, multipurpose hall, super market etc. For covered parking one will have to pay Rs 1.50 lakh and open parking Rs 75,000. Moreover, an additional amount of Rs 2 lakh (approximately) costs for registration, taxes and some permission.
The project involves an investment of Rs 480 crore. The house will be ready by September- October of 2011. Fund for project comes from promoters’ equity, construction finance and advance from clients. Depending on completion of project, client will have to pay the money.
Last week, the Prestige Group said it is planning township projects on 400-600 acres of land in Bidai and Sarjapur which may include significant components of affordable house. The Confident Group said, a project launched in Sarjapur road with 675 units earlier saw a flood of calls and significant booking within first few days.
Price for affordable projects are low and it is possible because the locations are away from city center where cost of land are low and size of flats are smaller comparing to buildings built traditionally.
