Mangaluru, Dec 17: Land Trades Builders and Developers embarked on its 32nd year with gratitude to all under the theme 'Gracias'—meaning 'Thank You.' The celebration took place at Eden Club on Saturday, December 16, reflecting profound appreciation for the support extended by all stakeholders, including customers, mentors, well-wishers, business associates, and members of the Land Trades team.
Reflecting on the Land Trades journey:
On October 28, 1992, K Shrinath Hebbar, a first-generation entrepreneur, stepped into the business horizon of Mangaluru by establishing Land Trades. Hailing from the remote village of Kabbinale near Karkala, he arrived in Mangalore with a big dream to realize his full potential in life. Fueled by a big dream and relentless determination, he focused on achieving customer satisfaction through reliable service.
Beginning as a consultancy for property transactions, Land Trades expanded into developing housing layouts with its first project at Jeppu Bappal in 1993. It earned an impeccable reputation for developing full-fledged layouts with all the essential facilities that perfectly met the needs of the middle class. Land Trades has so far completed over 25 housing layouts, both large and small.
With the shift towards apartment living in the 21st century, Land Trades entered the luxury apartment market in 2008 with Astoria. Subsequent premium projects such as Solitaire, Maurishka Palace, Sai Grandeur, Atlantis, Nakshatra, Adira, and Milestone25 followed.
The apartment culture has become an integral part of urban living, with diverse demands across market segments. Land Trades is presently the only property developer in Mangalore to promote three high-rise luxury constructions concurrently - Shivabagh at Kadri, Altura at Bendoorwell, and Pristine at Chilimbi. It is also poised to launch BMK Sky Villa, a 24-story exclusive residential structure at Vas Lane with only one ultra-spacious apartment per floor. The firm has also employed its expertise to create budget-friendly projects such as Habitat154 at Derebail, making better-quality living affordable for the urban middle class.
Today, Land Trades Builders & Developers is an ISO 9000:2015 certified firm with a 'DA2' Real Estate Developer Rating from CRISIL. A leading property developer in Mangalore, Land Trades has successfully completed 42 projects, including super-luxury skyscrapers, luxury apartments, and budget apartments, totaling 42.52 lac sq ft Many of its residential projects enjoy the highest quality rankings from CRISIL.
