The ever-growing demand for real estate in Gurgaon is majorly owing to the southern half of the city that delivers the promise of excellent social infrastructure and an emerging commercial boom. Located on the southern side of NH 48 is the Dwarka Expressway project that extends as far as 29.10 km. This ambitious transport route is expected to be completed towards the end of 2022 and is already capturing the demand for prime real estate, making it the ideal time to invest and benefit from the emerging growth in the area.

This National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) Dwarka Expressway project will provide a route that connects Mahipalpur (Shiv Murti) in Delhi with Kherki Dhaula via New Gurgaon (Gurugram) in Haryana. With an estimated cost of over Rs.8 crore, it will feature 8 lanes as well as local lanes, over 20 flyovers, 2 rail bridges, 11 vehicle underpasses, 20 underground pedestrian crossings, and a 2.5 m cycle path. With the completion of the Haryana section of this expressway, the connectivity between Gurgaon and Delhi will become seamless.

Life in Salap, Howrah

 


When we think of Kolkata and its surroundings, we think of deeply established communities with classic architecture, heritage homes, legacy institutions, and that typical old-world charm that we have come to love from this magical land in east India. While the city itself is peppered with pockets of colonial-era vibes, the region surrounding this megacity is experiencing growth at an unprecedented rate.

There are plenty of towns that are on the rise and promise a bright and vibrant future in the coming years. Modernization is on the rise around Kolkata, accelerated by great connectivity thanks to the newly developed road network and booming businesses. One such town is Salap.

Situated not too far away from the Hooghly river, Salap is a census town in the Howrah district in West Bengal. It is part of the Kolkata Urban Agglomeration and is a junction on the National Highway 16, which is also referred to as Makardaha Road. It is very well connected with direct routes to localities like Bal Tikuri and Hatisal, as well as Howrah and Hooghly.

Bankra Hospital, Seacom Skills University, Bangla Deeniyat Centre, Kabarpara Primary School, and St. Ann’s Day School are in close proximity.

Boma Yangu: Affordable Housing Programme and How to Apply for it


With the new affordable housing programme of the Kenyan government, home ownership turns into a reality for Kenyans. The 500,000 Affordable Housing Programme brings to you an easy-to-use platform, called Boma Yangu that helps you start your journey to owning your own house. In this article, we take you through what Boma Yangu Affordable Housing Programme is all about and how you can apply for it.

What is Boma Yangu Affordable Housing Programme (AHP)?

The initiative for affordable housing by the government is a part of the ‘Big 4 Agenda’, wherein they want to ensure that low and middle-income households also have access to decent and affordable homes. These houses will be financed and built by private developers on both government and privately owned land.

AHP is a first-of-its-kind comprehensive program wherein the government is planning to use private sector funding to build homes for lower and middle-income Kenyan people. It aims to provide accessible financing options to potential buyers using the National Tenant Purchase Scheme (NTPS) where the beneficiaries can make affordable monthly payments to own a house. 

How does it work?

Boma Yangu: Affordable Housing Programme in Kenya

For those interested in availing of the affordable housing scheme, you need to first register yourself. 

To register on Boma Yangu, you must be a Kenyan citizen, be over 18 years of age, and have a valid national identity card. You can then fill in the details on your profile application form and pick the house you are applying for. 

The house allocation thus begins by Boma Yangu, without any human intervention. The members pick their preferred location and then are provided with the type of home they qualify for based on their income, deposit payments, and other information provided. 

The allocation processing is then announced on the Housing Portal and via other communication channels. The actual allocation begins when the projects go live.

Types of Houses

Different types of houses are covered under the AHP scheme, from one-bedroom to three-bedroom units.

Some unit typologies include:

  • One Bedroom – 30 sqm @ Kshs 1,000,000
  • Two Bedroom – 40 sqm @ Kshs 2,000,000
  • Three Bedroom – 60 sqm @ Kshs 3,000,000

While Boma Yangu is here to fulfill your homeownership dreams, you can also look at other affordable housing options. One such development that catches the eye is Mi Vida Homes – a new residential developer created through a joint venture between Actis, a leading growth markets investor, and Shapoorji Pallonji Real Estate (SPRE), the real estate arm of one of India’s largest conglomerates. Placed right off the 7 Thika Super Highway exit, Mi Vida offers 1, 2, and 3 bedroom apartments at Garden City, Nairobi, Kenya.
