REAL ESTATE BENEFITS
There are a lot of offers that are made by developers to the investors or to those who want to buy some property. These are usually seen during festive times and hence it becomes very important to understand the nature of the benefit and whether they actually want to make use of the situation. There are various ways in which this situation can be achieved.
Interest discount
One of the best ways in which a property will be sold is by giving a discount to the buyer in terms of the interest that they will pay on the loan that they have taken for buying the property Most individuals take a loan for the purchase of a property and they will be made an offer whereby the rate of interest on the loan is reduced for a specific time period so that the individual is able to pay a lower amount when it comes to the loan repayment figure. This is expected to encourage people to go in for buying at this current stage.
Less cost
There can be some additional benefits that the developer will throw in so that a person is encouraged to buy the property at this particular stage. The benefits can be extremely varied and would range from the availability of several additional services for the individual to enjoy in their new house to the fact that they might even get far more than what they would have normally received by paying the amount that they are actually doing. This can be reduced charges for parking or it can be additional services in the house. These benefits would vary from developer to developer and the individual will have to make a correct evaluation of the offer that is made to them.
Freebies
There are often several freebies that are thrown in when a developer would like to increase sales and this can include free membership at some local club or some other benefit. Some developers might provide several types of furniture in the house or there might be some add-ons for the individual without him having to pay more. There are several variants that can be adopted when freebies are thrown in and the individual will have to be alert about the kind of benefits he is receiving and whether these are actually worth going in for.
Discounts
The last thing that developers often offer is discount in the price of the property. This is used as a last resort and creates a situation that is in favor of the buyer. It gives the buyer a good value for money by brining down the cost. In most cases the discount is available for a few days within which the prospective buyer has to take a decision.

As Indian economy experiences the boom
As Indian economy experiences the boom in all sectors triggered by its economic and investment policies, the metros or the Tier I cities are the ones that are inundated with burgeoning investments in the industrial and the services sector. Along with large-scale investments has boomed the realty sector creating congestion, arising out of an increasing demand for residential and commercial properties. This congestion in realty structures has forced the respective governments and many investment companies to seek out for alternative smaller cities leading to a demand for Tier II and III cities. One of the basic reasons for investments flocking in to the smaller cities is available properties and affordable prices. Moreover, the special initiatives taken by the respective governments in providing the smaller cities with infrastructural facilities and creation of SEZs, has played a vital role in promoting these small towns into cities of the future. Keeping in view all the congenial factors necessary for setting up corporate infrastructure, the investing companies ranging from pharmaceuticals to financial institutions, automobiles to the IT & ITES sectors; to the retail and real estate sector are opting for the smaller cities transforming them into India's fastest growing cities in a matter of few years.
The large scale investments by the corporate sector in the smaller cities apart from initializing economic prosperity and job opportunities has also created demand for realty spaces. While developers from all the nearby areas flock in to cater to the real estate demands, the property markets in these smaller cities are witnessing along with a changing skyline, an unprecedented hike in real estate prices. While the realty trend in Tier I cities have reached a saturation point, with the yield gap witnessing significant margin of 9.5 to 10 per cent, the Tier II cities record a yield of 10.5 to 11.5 per cent. However, the emerging winners in the present real estate scenario of India are the Tier III cities, which offer greater yields of up to 12 percent. This rising prices and promising future of these cities are driving investors to buy properties predicting long-term gain in years to come.
Recent trend also shows that due to lack of availability of business equipped infrastructure and exorbitant property prices in the existing metros, the IT, ITES and the BPO companies are vying for the smaller cities where they are promised better infrastructure, state-of-the-art office spaces and also skilled manpower. A careful study of these Tier III cities reveals the close proximity of these cities, to the most happening cities of India like Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore to name a few. Thereby, it will be no mistake if they are called the extension cities of the booming metros. Of late, the tier II cities like Pune, Kolkata and Hyderabad have made business opportunities and infrastructural development like never before. Now it is the turn of the Tier III cities or the smaller cities like Jaipur, Ghaziabad, Kochi, etc. to make it big into the realty business as the government and the corporate sector target them as 'India's next destination cities'.

Office-lease Trends in Tier II cities
As foreign investments in the IT and BPO sector keep flowing to India, there is a fair demand for office spaces which provides an international level of ambience. In Tier I cities like Delhi and Bangalore where developers have been catering to the demands for swanky office spaces the Tier II cities are no less comparable in design and quality.
The cost advantages in the realty sector presently lies with the Tier II cities where the realty prices are less in comparison to the metros due to easy availability of land and the government’s promotion of SEZs as more investors enter the market, the lease trends show an increase by 25% - 30% in Tier I & II cities over the next 3 years.
