2. How to calculate resale value of house?
For a resale flat one has to consider value of land, estimated life of
building, age of building and facilities available.
lets take for example a 20 years flat with 1500 sq ft built up 1000 sq ft
UDS.
If the flat was to be constructed today assuming the market price of land
is 10,000/sqft

3. cost of land = (UDS * current market price) = 1,000 * 10,000 =
1,00,00,000
cost of construction = (built up area * construction cost) = (1500*1200)
= 18,00,000
Total = 1,18,00,000 including all other charges.
The rate of depreciation is calculated as follows
The normal age of a building is considered to be 60 years.
Depreciation is calculated such that at the end of 60 years the value of
the building becomes zero.

4. Out of the total asset value the residual or scrap or salvage value, is
normally taken at 10% and can be ignored. The remaining 90% of the
building cost is spread over the 60 years.
hence, rate of depreciation is 1.5% per year.
So if a building is 20 years old then rate of depreciation is 30%.

5. i.e. the building is 70% of its initial value.
The cost of the resale flat would work out as follows if assuming the
cost of construction 20 years back was 250/sqft.
cost of land = 1,00,00,000
cost of building = (1-(30/100)) * (1500*250) = 2,60,000
Total cost of resale flat = 1,02,60,000

6. Because the flat would have been purchased at lower input cost, at
cheaper land rate and due to poor maintenance, the owner may also be
willing to offer at 30-40% lesser than the calculation above.
If a person who holds a old flat (25-30 years+) wants to reap the benefits
as per the true valuation above. The most profitable option is to go in for
a joint venture along with all the residents of the building by hiring a
builder or their own contractor, View Here: How to calculate resale value

7. With the relaxation of FSI, they can get substantial amount of money in
hand and possibly also retain a flat in the complex by only sharing their
space with few more additional neighbors.
