Dream Homes At Affordable Prices

The desire to own a home in Gurgaon — the Millennium City – was a distant dream for many until some time back. However, with the launch of the ‘affordable housing scheme’, this distant dream has turned into reality as the general public now has a plethora of options to own a home under various offerings being made. Thus, Gurgaon has become the most preferred destination for buyers looking for affordable houses.

Gurgaon has seen a significant makeover in the last decade with its high rise apartments, but the skyrocketing prices have managed to lure only the rich leaving fewer options for those looking for affordable havens. Keeping the needs of lower and lower-middle class buyers in mind, the Haryana government passed the Affordable Housing Policy in 2013.

Several affordable housing projects have been launched in the vicinity of IMT, Manesar. This area is planned to be future of Gurgaon where the likes of DLF, Vatika and Ram p rastha are colonising these sectors in the most functional manner. These upcoming sectors in Gurgaon will be well connected by metro, Dwarka Expressway and KMP (Kundli Manesar Palwal highway).

AFFORDABLE HOUSING POLICY, 2013

Designed in a consumer-friendly way, the housing projects would be developed in plots ranging from five-10 acres. It is intended to encourage the plan-ning and completion of group housing projects, wherein apartments of pre-defined size are made available at pre-defined rates within a target time-frame as prescribed under the present policy to ensure increased supply of Affordable Housing in the urban housing market to deserving beneficiaries.

License for such projects is given on first-come-first-served basis, while flats are given through draw of lots. The applicants must pay five per cent booking amount at the time of filling the form. Later, if the applicant is successful in the draw they will have to pay 20 per cent allotment amount. The remaining amount will be divided to 12.5 per cent instalment that one has to pay every sixth months for three years.

The non successful applicant will be refunded their booking amount in one month’s time. The policy has given strict guidelines to sell the carpet area at As 4000 per sqft and balconies at As 500 per sqft in Gurgaon, owing to which the buyer is at a benefit because they pay for what they own between the four walls of their home.

Affordable housing also finds its place in Kshitij by Ramsons in sector 95 on state highway to Pataudi. The highly resolved design with its stag-gered plan of apartment blocks that stimulate cross-ventilation through the individual units are a major attraction. It also engages its overall organi-sation to provide sunlight and a good view to the occupants. The location offers great connectivity to every part of the city. The property’s landmark address is close to many key industrial setups such as Maruti Udyog, Denso, Samsung, to name a few. Kshitij enhances the apartment living with strate-gically planned green shades, pocket parks, street lighting and sign posts. Bringing a symbolic identi-ty with the impressive use of elements such as lighting, block, standard colour, etc; the community will gain a rich hue and develop an ambiance which is wholesome and glorious in nature.
