What is self-redevelopment?

In self-redevelopment, the housing society itself becomes the developer. The society retains control over design, quality, costs, and timelines. The extra value created—larger carpet areas, better amenities, and any surplus from free-sale units, if applicable—stays within the membership instead of going to an outside builder. 

Why consider it now?

Today’s development regulations (D.C./DCPR) and the possibility of higher FSI/TDR allow older buildings to unlock far more usable area than before. This can translate into bigger, brighter homes with modern construction, lifts, covered and allotted parking, fire-safety systems, EV charging readiness, security features, and green building elements. In the long run, such buildings usually cost less to maintain and hold higher market value.

In simple terms: FSI tells you how much you can build on your plot; TDR is a way to add to those building rights; D.C./DCPR are the local building rules that govern what and how you can build. 

The typical hurdles—and our single-window answer

Self-redevelopment fails most often not because of poor potential, but because of coordination problems: too many consultants to manage, complex approvals, financing puzzles, legal formalities, quality control on site, and above all, building and maintaining trust among members. Our single-window model solves this by giving the society one accountable team that handles every stage end-to-end, keeps records transparent, and reports progress and costs through simple dashboards that members can understand. 

Our promise to your society

We keep society-first economics at the centre—maximum redevelopment gains are passed on to members. We coordinate all consultants and agencies under one roof so the society has a single point of accountability. Every step is executed lawfully and transparently, with documented checks for quality. We support financing with bank-ready documentation and lower-interest options where available. And because scheduling and procurement are tightly managed, the project is delivered on time at an optimum overall cost. 

Who works for you (the single-window team)?

Your project is served by a coordinated bench of Architects, Structural and Civil Engineers, TEV (Techno-Economic Viability) specialists, a Chartered Accountant, Project Management/Control professionals, Finance and Banking advisors, Real-Estate advisors, and Legal/Liaison experts. Instead of chasing multiple parties, you get one integrated team reporting to the society. 

What we do—explained simply

Techno-Economic Viability (TEV) Study

We determine what can be built under current rules and whether it makes financial sense. We analyse D.C./DCPR provisions (FSI/TDR), plot constraints, and multiple plan options, then test risks and cash-flows. The society receives a clear “go/no-go” conclusion with a best-fit plan that prioritizes member benefits. 

Architectural Consultancy

From concept to “Good-for-Construction” drawings, we design layouts that feel larger and work better in daily life. We focus on interior space planning, maximum natural light and ventilation, parking and circulation, and fully coordinated MEP (electrical, plumbing, fire-fighting). Green features and premium specifications are built in thoughtfully. Where members desire—and to the extent by-laws allow—we can align layouts with Vastu-shastra principles. 

Statutory Liaison and Approvals

We prepare and submit plans, obtain the necessary NOCs (including fire and environmental), and secure commencement and occupation certificates. Progress is tracked in a compliance log so members always know the status and next steps—no paperwork run-around for the society. 

Project Cost Estimation and BoQs

We build a realistic budget using detailed quantity take-offs and itemized Bills of Quantities. Rate analysis and value-engineering help avoid waste while maintaining quality. Budgets are updated to reflect market movements, so there are no surprises.

 Construction Quality Control

A documented Quality Assurance Plan (QAP) and QC checklists, third-party/lab testing where required, approved materials lists, regular site audits, and systematic snag and defect closure give you assurance that the building meets the promised standard—right up to handover.

 Amenities and Facilities Planning

We recommend the right mix of features—lifts, fire-safety, CCTV/security, EV-ready points, solar options, clubhouse and landscaping—balancing comfort with the long-term cost of upkeep. The goal is to deliver amenities that people actually use and can afford to maintain.

 Finance Consultancy

We prepare DPRs and bankable TEV packs, compare term-sheets, and help set up escrow and stage-wise disbursement to control cash flows. We also optimize interest costs and ensure compliance with bank covenants. The result is smoother funding, fewer delays, and clearer accountability for money.

Vendor Selection and Contracting

Through transparent tendering, we evaluate technical and commercial bids, appoint the right contractor/EPC partner, set measurable KPIs and liquidated damages (LDs), and arrange insurances, warranties, and performance securities. This ensures the right work is delivered at the right price—without hidden deals.

 Legal Formalities

We conduct title due-diligence, prepare society resolutions and consents, draft and vet development and works contracts, address RERA requirements where applicable, and handle member allotments and agreements. The documentation is structured to stand up to audits and regulatory scrutiny.

Project Management Consultancy (PMC)

Using a master schedule and CPM-based planning, we micro-plan activities, monitor procurement, and run monthly MIS. Cost and progress dashboards, along with issue and risk logs that carry closure dates, keep everyone aligned and the project on time.

 Real-Estate Advisory (if free-sale is involved)

We help frame a pricing strategy, oversee marketing, and enforce broker governance and buyer KYC/RERA compliance—so that any free-sale inventory is monetized correctly and cleanly, maximizing revenue for the society.

Capital Gains and Tax Support

With the Chartered Accountant, we prepare member-wise capital-gains workings and guide on stamp duty, registration, and tax-efficient structuring. Members understand the personal tax impact in advance rather than at the last minute.

Building trust and participation

We conduct structured General Body Meetings and townhalls with clear agendas, minutes, and action lists. Consents and balloting are handled with standard templates and full documentation support. Weekly trackers show the status of costs, quality, approvals, and schedules. Every member query is logged with a ticket and a closure date, and major decisions are recorded and available for review. The aim is to make governance transparent and predictable so members remain confident and engaged.

How the project is delivered?

Work proceeds in four practical phases. First, feasibility and approvals: the TEV, concept plans, member sign-off, and statutory sanctions. Second, financing and tendering: bank approvals, escrow arrangements, and contractor selection. Third, construction and quality control on site, with progressive handovers. Finally, completion and closeout: occupation, final snagging, documentation, and warranties. Professional fees are linked to concrete deliverables at each stage—you pay for results, not promises.

What the society usually needs to provide

At the outset, we typically request title and ownership papers, any old plans and commencement/occupation documents, society registration and resolutions, a list of members with present carpet areas, utility bills and tax receipts, and any available structural reports. These documents help speed up feasibility, approvals, and finance.

Why choose AVES (Accurate Valuers & Engineering Services)?

We bring over 36 years of combined experience across valuation, TEV/LIE, PMC, and legal liaison. Our methods and documentation meet “bank-grade” standards, with clear audit trails. Most importantly, we are uncompromising about integrity, quality, and society-first outcomes.

Important note on compliance

All planning and advice are subject to applicable laws and regulations (including local D.C./DCPR), the status of title, and approvals from competent authorities. Final outcomes depend on statutory sanctions, finance terms, market conditions, and timely decisions by members. Where RERA applies, we comply fully.

Optional add-ons (on request)

If the society wishes, we can include Vastu-aligned interior layouts (within by-law limits), additional green features like rainwater harvesting, solar, and wastewater reuse (STP/gray-water), and even a digital member portal for documents, trackers, polls, and announcements—so information is always at everyone’s fingertips.
