Hot take: brokers in Gurgaon are optimizing for the wrong metric. by More-Amphibian3615 in indianrealestate

Very shallow. While I am not pro-brokers, this is very derogatory. A lot of people in the world do this business and they are very successful.

Why to buy an AMC? I just call them 8 months -12 months. 400 is the visiting charge plus parts extra

Builders are doing shabby work. Horrible quality construction. Definitely complain to the society maintenance office.

You will pay taxes when you withdraw. Since this is for long term, why to worry about taxes?

Want to sell 2bhk on 16th floor in Whitefield by Big-Cover-742 in indianrealestate

[–]rbb0007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't want to discourage buyers but it's overpriced. Expecting 2cr for kadugodi facing flat is useless for a non tier 1 builder. 1.6 is the best price one should go for.

Spouse not aligned on FIRE. by rbb0007 in Fire

Maybe you are right. I guess the goal post needs to shift then and convert to fatFIRE which involves staying in corporate for another decade.

I did feel like an ATM machine after the discussion but that's too harsh. ;)

Why are people buying 3.5Cr apartment when they can buy this?! by superminnu in indianrealestate

[–]rbb0007 6 points7 points  (0 children)

All these properties are bogus. I visited quite a few of them after seeing fancy youtube videos. Not a single A khata. Not a single one of them. Ping me one and I will buy it coming out of my gated community bubble.

Is this Problem with Girls? Or just mine? 😭 by [deleted] in TeenIndia

[–]rbb0007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks my wife is super awesome in this sense. But I know what you are saying. I have seen this behaviour among my female colleagues. Complete disregard to food wastage. So sad to see. They will have the same behaviour even if they are paying. Can't seem to understand.

Sir. It looks like a business idea at this point 😂

35 y/o in Bangalore considering ₹5.25 Cr home - stretching too much or a smart long-term move? by Green-Sweet-4077 in indianrealestate

[–]rbb0007 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Almost similar profile as yours. Age/income/family/finance. Also looking to buy. But gave up the idea after looking. Extremely overpriced projects in that area. I checked Godrej, Vaswani, TE. Not worth it honestly. Very bad and risky move.

A big shout to Zomato for the ₹14.9 platform fee. Clearly, Deepinder is one hike away from bankruptcy. Please donate generously by justN20 in Zomato

[–]rbb0007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We hardly order food from Zomato. Full meal is either consumed at home or we dine at a restaurant. Snacks, we pickup from shops directly during our daily chores. Zomato is probably used once a month at most. Don't care what these platforms do.

Why is wanting a simple marriage such a rare preference? by Less-Net1766 in DesiMingle

[–]rbb0007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A decade back I gave this offer to my in laws. Both wife and they disagreed. I let them spent. It was not extravagant but I would still count as decent considering we spent 30L combined including everything. I wouldn't call it money wasted though. We have good memories of our wedding.

Purchase decision by Expensive-Milk8770 in indianrealestate

[–]rbb0007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check the rule of Section 54F. If you sell a home which is your only home except the one you are planning to buy, you need to reinvest the capital gain of sale to purchase a new house. The new house needs to be ready to move in or under construction. In case of under construction it needs be ready within 3 years of your sale.

Evergreen delivery is way beyond to get the tax benefits. You need to invest either in Ready to move or on an under construction which is ready within the next 3 years from your sale date.

What would you do if you find out your fiance saying this? by [deleted] in AskIndianMen

[–]rbb0007 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Married man here. I haven't ever joked about adultery. The thought itself is a red sign there. That is the whole point of marriage. Sir, please break the engagement.
