Self Redevelopment is a redevelopment done by society itself. In opting for self-redevelopment, housing societies can apply for loans from banks to finance the redevelopment of their homes and then, they can appoint an independent contractor to carry out the work to their specifications.
This effectively cuts out developers from the process, thereby ensuring that the profits remain within the society and they are able to track the pace and quality of construction closely.
Self-Redevelopment of Society buildings can be conducted easily & successfully, with proper planning and strategy, after keeping confidence and by taking help of experienced and relevant Professional Consultants of the field.
2. ABSTRACT
• About 60% of all buildings in Mumbai are 50-60 years old and are in a
dilapidated state. Redevelopment becomes necessary for such societies and
sometimes inevitable due to BMC directions on Structural Safety and repairs
of old buildings.
• Over the last decade, it has been seen that redevelopment projects often face
problems; out of approximately 6,000 society buildings where redevelopment
is feasible, more than 70 per cent are stuck because of some unscrupulous
builders.
• To avoid such problem, one solution is Self-redevelopment, where the society
members take charge of the project, with the help of a project management
consultant.
DILAPIDATED STRUCTURE
DEMOLITION
REDEVELOPED
3. PROBLEM STATEMENT
• Most societies prefer to redevelop their buildings through the Builders so
that they can get temporary accommodation, corpus and peaceful and timely
possession. But the time has shown that said route possesses the following
problems :
1
• Builder selection and negotiation is time consuming.
2
• The best offer providing developers will not necessarily be a well financed and timely
executor.
3
• Allegations of Corrupt practices and underhand dealings.
4
• Builders take liberty and change Building Plans, for their vested interests.
5
• Original members remain at the mercy of Builders for completing their Building and
possession only stays a dream.
6
• Builders tend to usurp and sell common spaces like parking, terrace, etc.
7
• Sometimes the builders also stop paying rents to the tenants and quality of construction
is often substandard.
4. PROBLEM STATEMENT
• There were no Laid
down guidelines and /or
Firm procedures
declared.
• Builders took advantage
of the situation offering
unrealistic schemes.
• Many have lost precious
life time savings.
• Being Penny Wise and
Pound Foolish.
