Choose happiness

Stay close to work, school and do whatever it takes to spend more time with your family. 

Sometimes we miss calculating the loss of valuable time spent traveling, negotiating through traffic and pollution. Continue the pursuit of happiness. Stay in a home that encourages family and community interaction.

Homes for senior citizens

NDTV reports that senior citizens are emerging as a new customer segment for property developers as well as other allied services providers for creating a proper assisted living environment for them, say realty experts.

As the number of the elderly population is expected to grow to 173 million by 2025, senior citizens are now being looked at as a potential real estate market, according to a report by property consultant Jones Lang LaSalle.

At Samskruti our communities are designed to allow personal spaces with privacy as well as community spaces which encourage community interaction, sharing, caring and conversation among the members of the community. Several facilities like community kitchen, street designs, placement of parks, amenities like swimming pools with hot water, jacuzzis, walking tracks, play areas, movie theaters and many more. Accessibility to faster medical care while encouraging an indulgent, inclusive and active lifestyle is the secret to build a wonderful community. 

Saluting the nurturer

“To call woman the weaker sex is a libel; it is man's injustice to woman. If by strength is meant brute strength, then, indeed, is woman less brute than man. If by strength is meant moral power, then woman is immeasurably man's superior. Has she not greater intuition, is she not more self-sacrificing, has she not greater powers of endurance, has she not greater courage? Without her, man could not be. If nonviolence is the law of our being, the future is with woman. Who can make a more effective appeal to the heart than woman?"

[To the Women of India (Young India, Oct. 4, 1930)]”

What should you look at before buying a home?

What should you look at before buying a home? This is a widely discussed topic and there are many items on this checklist but here are some top things you should look at before buying a home.

1. The structure: Look at the structure, its strength. Check if there is any standard for Seismic Zone 1, 2 or more. After all it should be safe and should match the minimum requirements of safety
2. Water control: Check about drinking water, storage, purification, back up, bore-wells, government water connection, ground water level in the project, surrounding areas, water quality and so on
3. Natural lighting & ventilation: Are all rooms naturally ventilated? Do you have enough natural lighting?
4. The roof: Is the roof in good shape? Does it look neat? Water leakage? Is it only being used as a place to dry clothes or something else is planned there? Like a garden, pool... is there enough water proofing, insulation?
5. Detailing: Do you see signs of quality workmanship in the finish details such as moldings, tile work, hardware and paint? In paints, are they zero/low voc paints?
6. Kitchen & bath fixtures: Are sinks, toilets and tubs quality fixtures? Do they work properly? Is the water pressure good when you turn on the faucets and flush the toilet?
7. Electrical systems: Are the plugs and switches placed in decent/intuitive places? Are there enough outlets? Are there enough lighting outlets, i.e., at the point of usage?
8. Water heater, plumbing: Is the water heater solar or electric (solar is much more efficient)? Is the hot water supply to major taps?
9. Heating: Where is the central heating system located and what type is it? Are any rooms not heated? Does the house need air-conditioning or it is naturally controlled?
10. Indoor air quality: This is an extremely important factor. Read more on how to improve indoor air quality here.
11. Plants, plants and plants: Are there enough plants/green cover in the property? There can never be enough but still you should have a decent number for visual comfort and food.
