Ashiana Housing, one of the finest developers in India, strengthening its Facility Management arm, has launched Resale and rental services for Ashianaites. Recognising the need and to safeguard its customers from unfair deals of third party brokers, Ashiana started this service under its subsidiary VML. Once the property has been bought, the company will assist its homeowners in renting or re-selling their properties
With its people centric approach, this new service will help homeowners to have smooth transaction be it resale or rentals, and will also help in getting better and fair deals and make their lives hassle free. The group has set itself up as the yardstick for excellence in Facility Management, a model for other realtors to emulate as there are very few realtors who are providing in house property management services to the homeowners.
Commenting on the move, Ankur Gupta, Joint Managing Director, Ashiana Housing said, “Be it sales, resale or rentals, Ashiana has never encouraged third party or brokers’ involvement in any way whatsoever. To save our customers from fraud and unjust price deals, we extended our Facility Management services.
Since 1979, Ashiana has stood the test of time for its quality of construction, and its maintenance as Facility Management is indeed a hallmark and USP of the company. Ashiana Housing is a group that have never seen themselves as a company that constructed houses and just moved on as they believe in establishing strong affinity with our customers. With such a belief the company started Facility Management services under VML, which is constantly improving and streamlining its operations to provide quality maintenance to all Ashiana Properties.
It’s a great pride to provide beautiful, comfortable and secure dream abodes to its end users. But having created homes with care and attention to detail, it is also important to maintain these properties. So that they can retain the looks and feel of a new home and the investment made in properties continues to improve with time. Nowadays due to lack of time and hum drums of daily routine inhabitants are unable to manage these properties. As result, decreased value and rental return of the property.
Taking cues from foreign countries and understanding the need for acquaintance in managing properties, Ashiana Housing, liberated this concept in all its projects. Whether it’s Ashiana’s housing projects, Utsav - An Active Senior Living, or Retail cum commercial projects, the professional team of VML maintains over 4000 flats in over 15 complexes, covering an area of 4 million sq ft. At Ashiana, Facility Management is a lifetime commitment, which adds value to the property with increased rentals.
To reap up the requirements of homeowners Ashiana offers services ranging from preventative maintenance, placement, and a whole gamut of services like landscaping of footpaths, road surfaces, courtyard paving, and car parking areas, fencing and many more; soft services includes house keeping, pest control, waste management, mechanical and electrical maintenance, production support services, staffing solutions, security services, mail room services.
VML just not only maintains property but also maintains a healthy social relation in between the inhabitants of Ashiana by organising various intra-complex socio-cultural events like Cricket tournaments, Sing & Dance competitions, swimming competitions etc.
“For Facility Management, companies should be involved at the design stage itself, as that will enable them to better understand the details involved in the maintenance exercise. Creating property or projects is not a difficult task but projects that are well maintained tend to appreciate more in value, and therefore, Facility Management is recognised as a vital business driver and is an untapped market.” added Ankur Gupta.
Ashiana’s Real Estate Management portfolio has served 80 lakh sq feet of residential and commercial space in Bihar, Jharkhand, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Delhi & NCR and continues to serve its people as commitment to quality is the nerve of the company.
