Helping NRIs own an appreciating asset and reshape the urban skyline.

Why India

NRIs never miss an opportunity to reconnect with their roots

Dubai to Denmark and Australia to United States, NRIs never miss an opportunity to reconnect with their roots. Owning property/home is one such opportunity to build an emotional connect with their motherland. Indian cities have become torchbearers of smart and futuristic development. And Saagam Realty helps NRIs become a part of shaping the urban skyline in an ultramodern manner.

Historically, real estate has been an appreciating asset giving excellent return on investment. With the rapid urbanization millions of Indians are moving into metropolitan cities and there is a huge demand for real estate property. For the past five years growth of the Indian real estate market has been steady and has made corrections in terms of market prices and what you have now is the best pricing ever. At the same time the industry is propelling towards impending revival with timely interventions from the government and investor participation. Club it with the depreciation of Indian rupee against the dollar, it is an opportune time for NRIs to cash in on.

Moreover, with the implementation of GST, RERA and the amendments in the Benami Properties Act and Insolvency Laws the transactions have become fair and more transparent for the investors. The new rental laws and REITs are a right move towards protecting the interests of the investors. Thus, investors can now enjoy regular rental income from their property and long-term value appreciation on their capital.
