He goes about researching the pros and cons of owning a second home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Advantages of Owning a Second Home<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Samir\u2019s research (https:\/\/www.ibef.org\/industry\/real-estate-india.aspx) indicates that the real estate market in India is growing at a fair clip \u2013 11.2 percent CAGR.

More specifically he found that <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It is advantageous to take a home loan for buying the second home as the tax benefits are substantial<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Even though he can afford to buy the second home from his own funds he finds that a loan is more advantageous and he can deploy his own funds in his other investments which can earn him more than the interest he would pay for the loan <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>He should buy a home in a locality which is well known for its convenient location to nearby shopping areas, schools, transportation, reputation and availability of basic infrastructure<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Since he is planning to let out the home, he should choose a location which can fetch him good rent<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>He should buy from reputed builders and check their offerings for the latest in construction technologies, amenities provided, approvals received, sanctioned plans, property documents and title deeds <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>He should do due diligence on the builder\u2019s reputation for delivering on time <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>He should thoroughly examine all associated costs to arrive at the total cost \u2013 cost of home, amenities, registration costs, car parking, deposits, statutory levies and any other cost<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It is advantageous to buy a completed house as the tax benefits apply from the date of purchase whereas for a under construction house, there are limitations   <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Since the IT Act attaches a notional rental income for the second home if it is not rented, it is advantageous to rent the second home<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There is a 30 percent standard deduction available for rental income<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Long term capital gains benefit on the second home is also available   <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tax benefits on principal repayment up to Rs 1.5 lakh (Rs 2 lakh for senior citizens) is available only for one house and not for the second house under Section 80C<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tax benefits on interest payment for the second home loan is available under Section 24(b) \u2013 limited to Rs 2 lakh or actual interest paid, whichever is lower <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It is advisable to take a home loan insurance so as to cover the repayment if any unfortunate incident happens to him without troubling his family <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>After considering the pros and cons Samir decides that he should go for the second home ready built and let out to take advantage of all the benefits available under the IT Act. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tata-blog.osian.dev\/\">Tata Capital<\/a> is an NBFC extending various loans including home loans to help borrowers take advantage of tax benefits.
