“My money sits in FDs. I want a real asset in my own name, and I want to see where every rupee goes.”

Real estate investingwithout blind trust.

The land is registered in your name, never a pooled fund. We manage plot selection, approvals, construction and sale. You see every rupee from land purchase to exit.

Illustrative strategy, not a guarantee. Borrowing increases gains and losses. See the risks below.

How the strategy works.

Use about 20% of your own money and bank finance for the rest. We construct and sell. The bank is repaid from the sale proceeds, so there is no 30-year EMI. What is left after the loan, interest, fees and taxes is yours.

  1. Choose the plot

    We help find a plot with clear title and approvals. It is bought in your name, subject to legal and transaction checks.

  2. Fund it

    You put in about 20% of your own money. A bank loan funds the rest, subject to bank eligibility and approval.

  3. We manage construction

    Under a written agreement, on the open-book cost sheet.

  4. We sell

    Target sale window of 6 to 12 months. Our calculator defaults to 15 months to stay on the safe side.

  5. The loan is closed

    The bank is repaid from the sale proceeds.

  6. You receive the remainder

    After interest, fees and taxes. Our biggest earnings come only at the sale, so our interest stays aligned with yours.

Why this instead of the usual options

Buy a flat and waitSlow appreciation, a long EMI, and your money is stuck.
Pooled schemesYou don’t own the asset and can’t see where the money goes.
Developer projectsDelays and opaque costs.
FDs and fundsSafe, but you don’t own a real asset.

What you get here: a real asset, your name on the title, visible costs and a defined exit.

Why we sell finished villas, not pre-possession flats.

Developers sell before possession, from a brochure and a sample flat. Many end users and first-time buyers hesitate to pay for something they can’t see. Buyers of a ready home want to walk through it first.

Pre-possession flatFinished villa
What the buyer seesA render and a sample flatThe actual home, inspected before paying
How the buyer decidesOn trust in the developerOn the property and its construction records
For a ₹2–2.5 Cr budgetA 3BHK apartment with shared wallsAn independent villa with its own land
Possession riskDelay while the buyer pays EMI and rentNone, the home is ready

Many families searching for a 3BHK in that range would rather own an independent villa, which is the buyer pool this strategy sells to. A finished home buyers can verify improves their confidence. It does not guarantee a sale, a price or a timeline, so the calculator still shows break-even and downside cases.

Our fees, in percentages.

Two fees, both stated upfront and shown on your deal sheet. We earn no margin on materials or labour.

10% of construction cost

Charged on the actual construction cost spent, as its own line on the open-book cost sheet.

5% of the sale price

Charged when the property is sold. Our biggest earnings come only at the sale, so our interest stays aligned with yours.

Final terms are confirmed per project in your agreement. Bank interest and taxes are separate and are shown in the calculator below.

Investor ROI and KPI calculator.

Change any number. Every KPI recalculates. Start with the break-even price: it tells you how far the sale price can fall before you lose money.

Your deal

More inputs

Interest rate: the RBI repo rate is 5.25%. Banks lend at the repo rate plus their own spread, and plot or construction loans usually cost more than home loans, so 8.5% is a working assumption. Get real terms from 2 or 3 banks. Plot loans are often capped below 80% of value.

Price sensitivity: what if the sale price differs?

Sale priceNet resultReturn on equity

Illustrative scenario, not a guarantee. Returns depend on market, timing, loan terms, costs and execution. Loan repayment is the investor’s obligation. Borrowing can increase losses as well as gains. Taxes are not included. This is not investment, legal or tax advice. Consult your own advisors.

Assumptions behind the numbers
  • The plot is bought in your name. Loan is a percentage of total project cost (plot, approvals, construction).
  • Interest runs from day one for the full period, which is conservative because loans are usually drawn in stages.
  • Interest and fees are settled from the sale proceeds. If you pay interest monthly, your cash invested is higher and your return is lower.
  • Fees: percentage of construction cost plus percentage of the sale price, as set above. Confirm final terms per project.
  • Taxes (capital gains or business income), GST on fees and brokerage are not included.

The KPIs on every deal sheet, in plain language.

Equity invested
Your own cash at risk.
Loan-to-cost
How much of the project cost the bank funds.
Break-even sale price
The lowest sale price at which you lose nothing, after interest and fees.
Margin of safety
How far the price can fall below your expected sale price before a loss. (Expected sale − break-even) ÷ expected sale.
Return on equity (ROE)
Net profit ÷ your own money.
IRR
Annualised return that accounts for how long your money was invested.
NPV
What the deal is worth today, compared with your alternative such as an FD. Positive means it beats the alternative.
Equity multiple
Total money back for each ₹1 you put in.
Interest cover
How many times the profit before interest covers the interest bill.
Leverage spread
Annualised project return minus the loan rate. Positive means the loan is helping you.
Delay sensitivity
What each extra month costs you in interest, and how many months of delay your profit can absorb.

The risks, shown before you invest.

The same loan that can raise your return can also raise your loss. We show the downside next to the upside, and the break-even first.

Questions investors ask first

Is the return guaranteed?

No. Every figure on this site is an illustration or a target. Real results depend on the market, timing, costs and execution.

Will I own the property?

The plan is for it to be purchased in your name, subject to legal and transaction review.

Who takes the loan?

You do, in your name, subject to bank eligibility. You remain responsible for repayment.

What if it doesn’t sell in the planned time?

Interest keeps running. We review pricing and options with you, and each scenario is explained in your agreement.

Can I use only my own money?

Yes. Set the loan to 0% in the calculator. Returns are lower, and so is the risk.

Can NRIs invest?

This depends on FEMA rules, NRI loan eligibility and bank terms. Please check with your advisor before committing.

What taxes apply?

It depends on your situation and how the gain is classified. Speak to your CA. We share the numbers so they can advise you.
