Residential Valuation in Rohini
Residential property in Rohini means one of three things: an authority plot, a floor built on one, or a society flat. They are separate markets and mixing their evidence is the quickest way to a wrong number.
Three kinds of residential stock
Authority plots, builder floors built on those plots, and cooperative society flats all sit within Rohini. A plot and a floor on a plot are not comparable assets, and neither is comparable to a society flat.
The first step is establishing which you hold, because it fixes the comparable set and therefore the answer.
Floors, land shares and who owns what
Most original plots now carry three or four separately owned floors. If you own one of them, you own that floor plus an undivided share of the land, and that share has to come from the documents rather than from arithmetic.
Ground floors with parking and independent access consistently sell above middle floors here. The report values the specific floor rather than an average.
Leasehold and freehold
A great deal of Rohini land was allotted on a leasehold basis, and conversion to freehold is a routine but not automatic step. The position affects saleability and therefore value.
We record the position from the papers as we find it. Where conversion is pending, we say so rather than assume it will happen.
Sector position and the category D band
Distance from the metro and position within Rohini create real differences in the evidence, so a colony wide rate misleads. Rohini sits in category D of the circle rate schedule, which functions as the registration floor rather than as a guide to market value.
Questions we get in Rohini
- Is a plot worth more than the sum of the floors built on it?
Often yes, because a whole plot has redevelopment potential that individual floors do not. That is one reason plot owners and floor owners should not use each other as comparables.
- We are the fourth floor with the terrace. Is the terrace ours?
Only if the documents say so. Terrace rights are valuable here and they are also frequently assumed rather than documented. We check.
- Does freehold conversion raise the value straight away?
It removes an obstacle rather than adding value on its own, but it widens the buyer pool and makes a sale simpler, and that generally shows in the price achieved.
- Our sector has no metro nearby. How much does that cost us?
It is a real factor and we take it from the evidence rather than applying a rule of thumb. We use sales from your own sector wherever they exist.
