People make all kinds of resolutions when the new year is about to begin. For some, these could be about positive changes that they wish to bring about in their lives. For others, they could be about personal or professional goals that they finally plan to accomplish.

Not everybody takes these resolutions seriously enough to stick with them after the first few days of January are over. However, is buying a new flat in Mumbai on your list of new year resolutions? Then it surely must not be a casual thought, because purchasing a home requires a lot of planning and preparation. Hence, only individuals who are financially ready for the milestone can hope to fulfil this dream.

If you are wondering when would be the most suitable time of the year to do it, it is right when the new year starts! Although this period isn’t traditionally popular for property purchases in India, it can actually be a smart idea for you to buy a house early in the new year.

Read on to know what makes New Year the best time to purchase your dream home:

Reasons to Buy a New Flat in Mumbai During the New Year

• Ideal Time for a Fresh Start

  The first month of the new year is a time when people look forward to their future with renewed hopes and excitement. Purchasing a new house marks the beginning of a new chapter in your life, so what better time than January to take the big step? The English New Year may not have religious significance for Indians. Yet, the positive vibes that fill the air during this period make it no less favourable for purchasing a property. Thus, whether you are considering 1 or 2 BHK flats for your first apartment in Mumbai, or thinking of upgrading to larger 3 or 4 BHK flats, January is a great time to do it!

• Low Competition in the Market

  Mumbai’s real estate market is comparatively less busy in January due to low demand. This is because a majority of people start looking for new homes after spring arrives, around the time of auspicious festivals like Gudi Padwa or Holi. Therefore, you will have much lower competition from other buyers if you buy a house earlier in the new year. Besides, many new project launches occur during the festive season in spring, so developers try to clear their unsold inventory before that. Thanks to these factors, you may have a better chance to buy your dream home at an affordable price!

• Potential Offers from Developers

  Most real estate developers wish to sell out all their existing units before new launches flood the market. Hence, they may announce attractive offers during the New Year to motivate buyers. The offer could be giving away a freebie (like a gold coin), or a discount on the property price.

  You must do ample research and explore the available options, such as 1 BHK flats, 2BHK flats, 3 BHK flats, 4BHK flats, etc. Don’t hurry and settle for a property that does not meet your requirements, just for the sake of a discount. Ensure it is from a reputed developer with a successful track-record. See if they are giving any good offers on your preferred house, or if they are at least willing to negotiate the price. If the developer is eager to sell, it should not be too difficult for you to secure a profitable deal on your terms!

• Ready Possession Benefits

  The only thing more exciting than buying a new flat in Mumbai during the New Year is getting to shift there at the same time! However, this is possible only if you choose OC-received properties with ready-to-move units. When a property has received the Occupancy Certificate and other municipal approvals, you can get ready possession and move in as soon as you buy. This means no waiting period, no need for rental accommodation, no extra expenses on rent, and the best part: No GST on the flat price!
