1. REALTY REVIEW – May 2013
Although, we were second in overall most of the categories in terms of awards and recognition, our belief levels
went up and got strengthened that our work never goes unnoticed. We have added two new locations in the state.
Sales are an inseparable part of our culture. The more strength we provide to our associates in terms of
education, knowledge and skills, the faster organization will grow. Focus becomes a pointer in terms of results.
The more focused we are on our key result producing area, the more successful we will be.
Doing few things in the direction of results, will fetch us our goal! I am going back to down line stream of growth,
i.e. Associates in this new year ahead. We are open all the time 365 days, 24 hours, committed to serve you all in
terms of real estate needs. Stay in touch via e mails, phone or through web.
Happy reading

RBI has cut its key policy rate by 0.25% to 7.25%
We will be happy to hear from you for any suggestion or feedback and even give you more realty updates.
Realtors have welcomed the recent rate cut by RBI as this would
lower the interest cost to builders and home buyers. The chairman
of CREDAI, Lalit Kumar Jain has said "we sincerely hope that the
RBI will keep up the trend of repo rate cut and facilitate a fall in
interest rates so that EMI burden on common house buyer gets
reduced considerably."
