Amongst the plethora of investment options in India for an NRI, Real Estate has an edge. Especially during the present times with the huge reflux of NRIs returning to India, Real Estate has turned out to be the hot-spot for investments. Buying a house or a piece of land, it’s all over the place. The intentions are scattered; some are investing for a contented retirement, while some want an asset that brings in a decent income, whereas some just want a place to spend their lives after returning for good. Reasons are too many, medium just one. Real Estate!

Given the benefits that it possesses, NRI investments in Real Estate in India can be one of the best investment tools. All you need is a basic understanding of how the industry operates and what exactly are your expectations out of the investment. You need to pick an objective(s) (rent, retirement, Tax Benefits or Long Term Returns). It can also be a mixture of all the benefits. Buy a house that can fetch you a decent rental income till you return, if you get it on a loan, tax exemptions are a plus. Then you can choose to either sell it off for good returns or stay put for your life post retirement.
