The Andhra Pradesh government in a bid to offset the revenue loss due to the real estate slump last year, ordered a fresh assessment of market value of all types of properties and effect the increase immediately.

The Andhra Pradesh government while issuing the orders for a upward revision of the market value of land and other forms of property in the urban as well as rural areas of the State wherever necessary, said, the exercise is being done to keep registration values inline with the property prices prevailing in various parts of the state.

According to the official sources, registration charges will go up once the revised market value of land becomes effective from the 15th April 2010.

Keeping with government orders, the Stamps & Registration Department officials have started a Statewide exercise to assess the actual (real) values of the lands and properties in consultation with their counterparts in the Revenue Department and tabulate them location-wise after upward valuation. The revised market values will be displayed at the sub-registrar offices all over the State, by 15th April 2010.

Revision is applicable to Apartments too

According to the registration department sources, the assessment is being made in case of flats and apartments too in urban areas, especially in Visakhapatnam, Vijayawada, Tirupati, Guntur, Warangal, Rajahmundry, Kakinada, Kurnool, Khammam,Nellore, Ongole etc where the value of land and property has gone up steeply. However,in contrast, the property prices in Hyderabad and its suburbs remained subdued or crashed by 15 to 20%.

Once the enhanced market values are displayed at subregistrar offices in the state, people purchasing the lands and properties will have to pay more towards registration charges.

Although the rates or percentages at which stamp duty, transfer duty and registration fee are collected remain unchanged, the “registration charges” go up as these will be collected on the enhanced market values.

Long overdue

Government sources said the they planned to effect an upward revision of the market values in all the urban and rural areas from April 1 for registration purpose as such hike was due from August 1 last. Under the new policy, the market values will have to be raised annually for both rural and urban areas.
It, however, deferred the decision, fearing possible public outcry and in view of the slump in the real estate market due to global slowdown.
The figures released for the year ending 31st March 2010, the Stamps & Registration Department incurred a 23% shortfall in revenue accruals. While increasing the target for the new financial year by almost 10%, the government has set a whopping Rs. 3500 crore as the new benchmark.
It is no secret that government found an indirect way to fill its coffers by increasing the property values without touching the figures of stamp duty, transfer duty and registration charges.
This move, is certainly going to create ruckus in the real estate sector in the state which is slowly but steadily recovering from the economic and political jolts.
After all, the state is now under the rule of a man who is known to be the master at playing tactics vis–vis financial management.

Sometimes referred to as the southern gem, Dunedin is the South Islands second biggest city, characterised by a unique Scottish feel and architecture imposed on it during the time of New Zealands colonisation. Surround by beaches, forests and dramatic scenery, Dunedin is noted for its youthful and charismatic population being attracted by the educational and tertiary facilities contained within.

Placing farm property in a trust-owned limited liability company (LLC) is often a key component of protecting a family farm against estate tax laws, creditors, law suits, nursing homes and other risks so it can continue to be enjoyed by future generations. Specifically, the LLC holding your farm property must be owned by an irrevocable trust.

If youre a farmer in Ohio, undoubtedly youve worked hard for the success of that farm and you want that hard work to benefit your family for many generations to come. Unfortunately, state and federal estate tax laws, debt obligations, nursing homes and other factors can put your farm at risk upon your death if proper succession planning is not in place.

While proper succession planning consists of many parts, an important part is often to create an irrevocable trust to own the LLC holding your Ohio or Dayton real estate. A lawyer can help you with this by drawing up the necessary legal documents that form the irrevocable trust, designate the beneficiaries, and describe what is to happen to the property and LLC upon your death.
Property in a Trust-Owned Limited Liability Company is Protected Against Most Debts and Lawsuits; Estate Taxes can be Minimized
By placing your farm property in a trust-owned LLC, the property becomes owned by the LLC, which is a legal entity just like a corporation, rather than being owned by you. Since you dont own it any more, the property is protected from many forms of debt and lawsuits. The irrevocable trust that owns the LLC adds another layer of protection and ensures that the LLC and property it holds is passed on to your chosen beneficiaries.

To more fully protect your Ohio or Dayton real estate, a lawyer with expertise in estate planning and business law can draft legal documents to create limited liability corporations, insurance trusts and other entities that work together to protect your farming business and personal assets for inheritance by your family.

Farm property in a trust-owned LLC can also avoid estate taxes. Estate tax law usually takes effect when property transfers to the beneficiaries. However, the legal documents for your irrevocable trust can specify that your beneficiaries can make use of the property while ownership is retained by the irrevocable trust and the LLC. Since the property is never transferred to the beneficiaries, estate tax laws never come into play.

Placing property in a trust-owned limited liability company is just one tool used to minimize estate taxes and other risks to your Ohio or Dayton real estate. A lawyer knowledgeable in succession planning and estate planning can show you additional ways to help you prepare a complete succession plan for your farm.

One would think that purchasing a property is like buying anything else with the sole difference of the high amount of money involved in the transaction. However, youd be surprised to know that there are many precautions that you should take when purchasing a property as there are many commercial and legal details that you have to be aware of.

Though a sale contract can be signed, the property is not legally owned till the deal is fully closed and you get (symbolically) the key of the property. Thus, the property of the house is perfected when you take possession of the property and when you are legally entitled to take that possession. Its not enough with the sale contract, you need to actually move in.

Property And Possession

Transferring the ownership of real estate requires great formality. In order to rightfully own a house you need not only to possess it but also to have a legal title over it. This title will be the consequence of a sale contract, a donation, an inheritance, etc. On many places, it is even possible to obtain such title by the continual and uninterrupted possession of a property for a long period of time.

Thus, possession is not the same as property and even if you possess a property, there is no guarantee that you rightfully own it. Tenants recognize the ownership of the property on the head of the landlord, they possess and enjoy the property but they dont own it. The consequences of this distinction are very important when it comes to the precautions you need to take when purchasing a property. The risk is to purchase a property from someone that doesnt own it or from someone that is subject to a court process.

Thus it is important for you to go through all the details about a property and request information from public records and registries so as to make sure that the property is rightfully owned by the one claiming to own it and that there are no processes going on that may jeopardize the transaction or eventually put in risk your ability to keep the property. The aid of a lawyer or a trusted real estate agent is a must in these cases.

Financing Problems

You need to make sure that the money will be ready when it comes to perfect the sale contract. The reason for this is that a pre-approval for a home loan does not necessarily imply approval and thus, the deal may fall at the last minute because the borrower doesnt qualify and consequently doesnt have the money needed to pay the seller.

This is not such an uncommon situation. There are many deals getting blocked every week due to failure to obtain finance. Most sellers would be willing to postpone the transaction for up to a month so as to give the buyer enough time to obtain a loan from another source. But if the situation cant be modified, then the deal will hopelessly fall with loses for both parties in terms of time and thus, money.
