A SHORT STORY OF A REALTOR

Once upon a time there lived a man in southern China, who later became a Singapore based entrepreneur. In 1997 he bought some river-side land in Shanghai and launched residential projects. He was astonished to see no buyers at all. But after a decade and half the area was worthier 10 times. Later in 2004 he bought some land in Zuhai, a city near the Gam-bling Mecca of China. The visionaries doubted the buying power of the people, but he rowed his boat against the tides. Now as per Forbes the man stands 21st among the richest Singaporeans.

He was none other than Mr. Zhong Sheng Jian who launched Yanlord Riverside Gardens in Shanghai. The man who incorporated the prefinish-ing apartment concept for the first time in China and taught to stratify the market and learn the segments.

Its is further interesting to know that his adequate business tweaks, have outperformed some of China’s biggest Real Estate Brands like Country Gardens.

Video streaming is growing at a faster pace and is expected to cover 25.5% of the advertising market by 2018.

SOME RICH STATS...

The resale home price will scale-up. The industry has kept the proper-ties on hold . As a result after the initial boom the market pace will slow-down again.

The mortgage rate is scaling up and so the monthly payment will be higher. As a result the percentage of people refraining from buying home will also increase.

Though there will be a decline in the demand, there will be no reduction in the prices.

The lot prices will be completely unsustainable.

Staying afloat in an unpredictable market is risky, especially when the scenario constitutes the real estate industrial trends.

DEVELOP PRACTICAL REALISM - Always set a long futuristic goal, especially if you are running an organization. Create a blueprint of the plan. Always set an alternative too. Wait for the opportunities. Remember, all designed steps should be manageable. Don’t haste or hesitate when the chances knock your door. Don’t think of the ROI initially. Be practical.

ASSIGN THE RIGHT RESOURCE - There should be a balance within, especially among the prominent fields of finance, acquisitions, sales and marketing, legal, & operations. Understand the skills and assign the right task to the right resource. Though sounds simple, it is most complicated and time consuming of all tasks. Sometimes even your family members may turn out to be the best resource.

STRATEGIC PLANNING - Think of 10 different ways through which you can fail in the real estate market scenario. Now try to develop solutions yourself, or with the help of your expertise resource. Finally you will come across a strategy where you will be surprised to see it pre-planned..

BE FINANCIALLY SECURED - Keep a hawk eye on the cash coming in and going out. Take the aid of a property analyzer around and focus the capital on the property and forget the other related expenses like phone and travelling. Keep a record of every transaction. Once its balanced , you can develop firm bonds with banks and mortgage agencies.

ALWAYS BE ALERT & TECHY - Take time to know the changes in the rules and regulations in government, banking and related sectors. Try to understand and incorporate, if necessary, the latest tech-based business solutions. Explore the social media to stay alive.
