“Morning is an important time, as how you spend your morning can often tell you the kind of day you’re going to have.” wrote American writer and journalist Daniel Handler.
We spent the morning of last Sunday participating in the Spice Coast Marathon, running through palm trees and the many historic landmarks of Willingdon Island, Kochi. This marathon wasn’t about who came in first or who the fastest was, it was about celebrating the importance of exercise in our everyday lives and the simple joy of being able to run outdoors.
Running is a metaphor for life; that when you run, you are driving yourself to overcome obstacles, and to find that inner strength to help you realise much more than you had initially thought. That’s what we at Abad Builders do in our everyday lives. We are constantly running and driving ourselves to do better and reach new heights.

Abad is heading to Kuwait City from November 3rd to 5th, 2016. Our visit to Kuwait comes at an ideal time for those looking for investment opportunities in Kochi.
A piece of advice for real estate investors as they look for their next investment: not all real estate projects in Kochi see the same appreciation rates. Real Estate appreciation depends on a number of factors, vitally important of which are the location and title of the property and the brand of the builder. It is for these two fundamental reasons that despite the stagnant state of Kerala’s overall Real Estate since 2010, we, at ABAD Builders, have been seeing significant appreciation in the property values of our projects. Since 2010, our flats and villas have appreciated in value on average of over 80%. Our commitment is in delivering to our valued customers, products of high appreciating value. And it is for this reason that we carefully select fine locations in Kochi for our projects, and deploy meticulous development techniques for assured quality for our buildings. Besides the steadfast dedication for handing over and after sales care has been perhaps one of the many reasons why our properties have appreciated more in value despite the sluggish trends in Kerala’s Real Estate market.
So before you jump into securing a home in Kerala’s real estate market, consult a Real Estate expert.

Each of our projects present an opportunity to push the boundaries of ingenuity by incorporating the latest technology onto our project’s structure. It is this continual effort and commitment to finding and using high-grade, innovative technologies that ensure the quality of projects. How can we make the best quality homes for our customers; that is the question we always ask ourselves. It is this bond with our customers that drives our search for new and better ways of building.
In our latest luxury apartment project in Edappally, Oasis, one such construction technology being employed is the Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) bricks. Unlike the conventional cement bricks, AAC bricks present a far superior construction material for one because of its strength and durability. Made out of an inorganic, non-combustible material, AAC structures are virtually fireproof, and can be engineered to withstand earthquakes, heavy rains and typhoons. For another, this fly ash composition also allows the bricks to be natural thermal and sound insulators. The use of AAC in the very construction of the flat therefore helps to reduce residents electricity consumption for air-conditioning as the insulating properties of the AAC bricks prevent heat from passing through and becoming captured within its structure. What’s more, they enhance the privacy of each flat by preventing the passage of unwanted noise. At the same time, AAC is also an Eco-friendly product. AAC bricks require zero soil consumption in contrast to clay bricks which require more than 3 kg of top soil to produce one brick. Building with such bricks allows our projects to maintain our high environmental building standards as well.
In such ways, we are constantly in search of the new that allows us to build top-quality homes for our valued customers. It is this commitment to providing and building the very best that allows us to become one of the leading developers of Kerala.
Trying to make sense of the Real Estate Regulation and Development Bill
The Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Bill passed by both the Rajya Sabha and the Lok Sabha in March 2016 and subsequently given assent by the President will alter the landscape of the Real Estate sector. The Bill is part of a series of reforms introduced over the last couple of years by the central government in hopes of propelling further growth in the realty sector. While it will take a full year or more for the Bill to be implemented on the ground in each state, it is important to understand the implications of this groundbreaking and landmark bill, especially for our valued-customers.
What is the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Bill?
The Bill requires every state to establish a Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA) and Appellate Tribunal, government regulatory bodies that will govern both residential and commercial real estate transactions, as well as handle the redressal of customer grievances against builders. Under this new law, all projects over 500 square meters (or more than eight apartment units) will need to be registered under RERA. Moreover, builders will need to submit all project information (from plans, schedules, land title status, government approvals etc) to the regulatory board which will in turn make available this information to customers when requested. And most importantly, the law mandates that 70% of a project’s funds be secured in an escrow account, not to be re-directed for the development of other projects.
Why is this Bill being implemented?
The purpose of the bill is to bring greater transparency and accountability to a sector. In so doing, the hope of the central government is that the implementation of such regulations on the ground will standardise India’s real estate sector in line with global standards, helping to bolster the influx of global capital into the sector. And for Kochi, a city so interconnected with the rest of the world, such developments will hopefully aid in furthering foreign investment into the city’s realty sector.
What does it mean for ABAD?
While such developments will invariably alter the landscape of Kerala’s Real Estate industry overall, for us, it’s business as usual. For the past twenty years, we, ABAD Builders have remained a constant amid a rapidly changing landscape of Kerala’s Realty market. Many developers have come and gone. Yet, we have always been here, building ever larger and ever higher. And the secret to our longevity and success lies in our steadfast and stubborn commitment to standards of transparency and accountably only now being set out by the Real Estate Regulation and Development Bill. In other words, we are RERA-ready.
What does this mean for you?
For Real Estate customers, the Bill is certainly a triumph. The establishment of RERA will mean a better safeguard from predatory transactions. The implementation of this bill will also mean increased assertion on the timely completion and delivery of projects. Nevertheless, as always it is important that you as customers do the necessary ground work and look at the delivery track record of builders before purchasing a flat. After all, there are builders who build. But there are only a few who build looking to the future; building real estate in ways that ensure capital appreciation and future investment returns.
On the 29th of July, we gathered for the handover of Orchard County, our villa project in Tripunithura that we had worked so hard to develop over the past two years. For many of us, particularly in our Project Division, the handover event was marked by a mixture of pride and joy in being able to show and hand-over the final product to our valued customers.
