ENGLISH LANGUAGE

Directions (1-5) : Read the following passage to answer the given questions based

on it. Some words/ phrases are printed in bold to help you locate them while

answering some of the questions.

A Russian proverb advises us not to buy a house, but the neighbourhood. While till

some years ago, it was impossible to dictate who lived with you in the same quarters,

today when you think of buying a home. you could actually create your own dream

neighbourhood – thanks to the Internet and the group buying model.

The group buying model has been applied in different industries, from cars to baby

merchandise to pet care products. Now, the trend is catching on in the real estate

sector, with many sites as well as broking firms offering group deals on real estate

projects in India.

The way it works is simple. Take xxx.com for example. This is an online and offline

integrated platform which showcases property. It uses social media networks to let

buyers know about possible good deals, and leaving it to them to do some viral

marketing. Once a large group of buyers is thus formed, xxx,com introduces it to

the developer and helps negotiate a suitable discount.

Since, the developer doesn’t have to pay for the marketing, it is willing enough to pay

these companies a transaction fee which is a percentage of the total value of the deal.

For the buyers, it offers the best rates at no fee, thus making it a win-win proposition

for all involved.

The developers also benefit by getting substantial cash flow, giving them a good

amount of working capital. “In today’s real estate scenario, hulk buying could be the

answer to the market slump and the long awaited cash flow,” says the Founder of

xxx,com. Sometimes: the discount size is not to be sneered at. Discounts on group

buying vary from 5-30 per cent, the average divergence from market rate being 25-30

per cent. Customer’buy-in’ is the model, But is it a temporary fad ? –

In a way, the online group buying set-up is similar to the model developers share with

speculators, who buy in bulk even before the project gets kick-started and get

discounts of 30-

40 per cent. They pay 50 per cent of the property value upfront. Group buying

companies prove more beneficial for developers as they get away with providing lesser

discounts than to speculators.

Some sound a note of caution on

the trend. Present conditions are conducive for this business model as group buying

works well in a situation where stocks are moving slowly, markets are jittery and

there is ample supply. It may not work in a seller’s market.



Another caution is – very often the

builders do not offer the best inventory to the group in terms of location and utility.

The buyers have to use their astute Judgement to avoid such traps.
