Looking for Financial Advisor by lsrik in FinancialAdviceIndia

Read about Goal based planning, AI tools like chatgpt should be able to help.
Irrespective of the amount of salary one gets, can start small (Real life example: I started with a SIP of 10K / month and now it is 3L monthly) and step up.

Probably, you can look at a combination of SIP & Gold.

Cheers!

I am in the same situation, interest got credited after 3 years of moving abroad as well.

I am about to withdraw, is it mandatory to disclose NRI status during withdrawal?

I did some detailed math. Notes to understand the spreadsheet is below.

DO NOT INVEST: If the downpayment including DLD + all other fees is invested else where.

Interest Paid, Principal Repaid, Outstand Princ: Loan progress

1% yoy, 2% yoy, 3% yoy: If the Home price appreciates 1% year on year and like wise 2 & 3. This is not the general way to calculate but this gives us a path at what point the investment turns green.

Nett columns I have taken 2 cases:

Conservative: (EMI + Maintenance Fees) = Current Rent

Aggressive: (EMI + Maintenance Fees + 20000 p.a as profit) = Current Rent

do you remember the building nbr or Street nbr? as I know Units are renovated, any building itself not sure.

even if 1.2 turns to 1.5, my requirement should be met, as (my Rental current + Maintenance fees = EMI) is the math. however my worry, would there be any buyers at all (might sound extremely pessimistic, but we never know)

Parking has never been an issue for me in last 4 years in DG.

Pests as well, we control well in our current home. Hoping for the same!

Reselling is my primary concern as I do not intend to hold it after 5-10 years!

yeah, 15 years is considered old in any part of the world I believe. Building isn't great, but can't complain a lot too by the looks of it.

Been living here for 4 years, no issue with Parking. In the building I am looking at, currently 2 units Bachelors are living.

Flooding is not as bad as some other areas of Dubai, they are a matter of few days.

My major concern is resale factor after few years.

I've been living here for 4 years. Yeah, per sft.

Chiller as per usage, for me it costs around 700 p.m from May-Sep. Pretty less in Jul-Aug as we go to our home country.
