How strong dollar affects an individual and an economy?
When the dollar rises, the value of PKR goes down significantly! Certainly, the continuous devaluation of the currency caused immense problems for the economy. No wonder, the rising dollar will enhance inflation which is no doubt a problem for the real estate sector. Due to the costly food items and fuel, the prices of general items also increased. A multinational earning in dollars can benefit. However, a company that operates on a national level cannot utilize this benefit. In short, the rise in dollar price affects a person badly who earns moderately or even less than that!
Inflation and its impact on real estate:
Developing countries face inflation very often. A little rise in price causes problems. Indeed, the real estate and construction sectors also feel the effects. Moreover, the lack of supplies and materials due to high prices is another matter of concern. The cost of construction materials is also increasing with regard to inflation. The rising fuel prices are exerting pressure on the builders as vehicles run on fuel. Overall, inflation is the biggest cause for construction companies to face loss.
How to address inflation to continue progressing?
It is important for the builders to be realistic about the changes in the prices. So, it is vital to make the necessary arrangements before starting the project. Also, there should be a frank discussion about the hike in dollars and inflation. Indeed, it is possible that the timelines of completing a project may change as per the need. The materials for construction are higher in price and not fully safe due to the changing conditions. Due to the increased prices and delays, it is possible that losses will occur. Therefore, the builders can continue progressing if they are able to plan accordingly and evaluate the construction processes.
A steep rise in the dollar will hit the construction sector harder!
It begins with paying high prices for the raw materials for constructing a building. Certainly, it has become difficult to continue the ongoing projects. This is a fact that construction is the second largest sector which increases profits and also job opportunities. According to the current scenario, the builders must revise the escalation formula. Moreover, the government need to import construction material at zero tariffs so that there are no additional costs. In the local market, the purchase of cement should be banned in to reduce the prices in the local markets.
In a nutshell:
Inflation is a big concern for the construction business since it raises the prices of building materials, machinery rental rates, consultancy fees, and other construction project inputs. As a result, project completion may be delayed, construction costs may rise, and profit margins may be reduced. The builders should continue to focus on their industry because the construction sector is one of the most profitable businesses. However, few measures can help to keep up with the situation.
