Recently, after doing some research on Real Estate in Pune, I was transfixed. The rates are soaring by the day. It's just getting tougher and tougher for the common man to afford a home.
They say that Food, Clothing and Shelter are the basic amenities that one MUST have to survive. How on earth are middle class people suppose to get all these with the economy so much inflating. A 3 room apartment, located at the outskirts of the city, costs a whopping 20 lakhs. Mind you, this cost is just of a very basic apartment. If you go at some of the big shots in the construction industry, you'll find that EVERYONE is creating projects with amenities such as Swimming pool, club house, tennis court in them. Is it so hard for them to understand that the people over here need a home and not an amusement park? Moreover, giving all these amenities would have been justified if they had given options for the buyer to use/not use them and charge accordingly. But no! These amenities are compulsory. They say "buy it, or leave it!"
Where are we going from here? Great economists predict that India would be the super power by 2020 and would surpass the United States. Is this seriously getting better or we're incling towards strangling our own neck?
