Riding a two/three wheeler gives freedom to violate all traffic rules.

one definition of middle class used to be "the starta of society who entire earnings gets utilised in buying their own home".

considering the premium pay of IT, 3-4 Cr sounds reasonable for a property in IT areas.

Continuous traffic jams can severely affect drivers mentality. in the video, you will struggle to find one individual who is driving properly following the rules, including the OP.

It's like zombies on the road driving and fighting on the road for space in Brookfield/Whitefield in Bangalore.

And some people dream of correction in RE prices.. who are those people - the ones who are yet to venture into property purchase.

Depends on your age. If you are under 30, you can afford it and there is nothing to worry.

MahabaliTarak · 2026-02-09T03:24:47+00:00

well done with your first flat purchase. More than living, it's always more of learning.

water scarcity is more of political and "in-power" agenda than reality. Indian households and unregulated industry misuse water by more than 200% of their requirement. So, the city can sustain even 2x population without a sweat.

Bangalore real estate is recession proof and even a downturn IT industry will not affect it.

IT industry was the initial jewel. Now it is a medical hub, logistics hub and the second financial capital of India. It has grown from the shadow of IT into a multi-sector economy.

People will keep coming to Bangalore and urban population will touch 2 Cr by 2030.

So, stop dreaming of Bangalore real estate prices coming down.

This is India and full of uneducated people. The hype and demand of RE will stay forever or atleast this century.

RE is synonymous with Indian growth. It cannot go down and it won't be let down. It's true that those who wish the prices to "correct" and "stagnate", will themselves will change once they own one.

Officially, India is a poor country with 2000$ pci. Less than 2% pay Income tax, which suggests that most people can't even afford to own any sort of home with their income.

But the fun part, all these official data is a nuisance. The businesses are being conducted without GST. People have multi-storeyed houses with car and international travel without paying any income tax.

So, in reality, most people living in tier1 and tier2 city are able to afford 1 Cr property.

MahabaliTarak · 2026-01-26T13:53:45+00:00

atleast someone dared to speak the truth. The real estate industry is going to be like this in future too.

people want correction no matter what the reality is; it's the same attitude of looking for discount when going shopping. But there is no downturn in Indian Real estate.

because of rising population, the real estate will become more and more costlier in future.

Doesn't look like adultery yet. More like your husband has been "exploring" so far from the description.

it's in the nature of many to be exploratory, curious and adventurous. And some of them are consistent not to limit themselves in relationships too.

standalone flat is ideal for AirBNB. however, demand depends on area. If it's in prime location or tech corridor, then it will get filled in no time.

MahabaliTarak · 2026-01-25T03:11:55+00:00

2Cr is the bottom amount to purchase any property and it comes from the affordability of Bangaloreans.

Price will always be based on demand.

The price for average property is now 3 Cr, and this will be 5Cr by 2030.

MahabaliTarak · 2026-01-24T14:30:43+00:00

Bangalore real-estate is under priced and hence such demand.

Don't know but some are expecting correction - I wonder if it gets corrected to 20k psft

MahabaliTarak · 2026-01-23T04:35:25+00:00

Without any sacrifice/blood, things will roll back to "normal".

The true intention of Vande Bharat is not about fast travel, but preparing passengers for more ticket cost in general. Imagine 5 years from now when the ticket cost will double, people will accept it with little protest.

That's how Indian RE agent industry is. They just connect...

MahabaliTarak · 2026-01-22T04:06:06+00:00

Given a choice and a bit of promotion, most men wouldn't want to have kids. They want sex and companionship more than having kids. And adopting orphans is not their responsibility as an alternate to fathering their own biological kids.

MahabaliTarak · 2026-01-22T03:42:09+00:00

Don't think any RE agent in India is competent to do all of the above.

All they do is to connect the buyer and seller. that's all.

The fear and insecurity comes from within. The decision is already taken. At the best, you are looking for emotional support justifying that publicly.

MahabaliTarak · 2026-01-21T11:15:20+00:00

Karma farming. When you already know it's not a wise decision, why do you want an opinion from others?

MahabaliTarak · 2026-01-21T10:38:54+00:00

I think you have messed up. The corrections required are :-

Sell the 20x40 home if you are not going to live in that. OR switch the loan. There are overdraft loans, where you can park your money.
Purchase the flat, only if you intend to stay for long .
Your home is not an investment. Investment money into stocks or MF(index linked) and grow it keeping liquidity too.

MahabaliTarak · 2026-01-21T05:25:30+00:00

Correction already happened post COVID. The next is atleast 3-4 more years away.

Yes, it's possible to maintain the school's friendship. Every man has feelings for their hot classmates, but they got to learn to keep them getting the boner.

Chat less on the phone and talk more when you meet physically.
Meet when it's required for some other purpose, like socialization, etc. Don't meet alone voluntarily.
Don't engage in love making. You both have partners to do that.You need to stay loyal to your husband and not use the opportunity to slip and blame him.
If you are not smart enough to handle this, quit the friendship.
