- Get mentally ready to ‘finance’ your apartment, and NOT freeze on ‘size’ early-on
- Understand your family needs and requirement in the short-term and long-run
- 4. Decide on ‘size & specifications’ of an apartment as per budget & family needs

Let’s explore…
1. Obtain a thorough understanding of the cost of apartments/homes in Hyderabad
- Good research will tell you the approximate prices in different areas of Hyderabad
- For instance, a 2 BHK of 1200 sft in Hyderabad could range between Rupees 45 to 60 lacs depending on the quality of construction and location. A 3 BHK of 1400 sft could be between Rupees 55 lakhs to 90 lacs
- The different areas have different costs- West Hyderabad is more expensive compared to North-East Hyderabad (Kapra, Sainikpuri, Yapral) or North Hyderabad (Alwal, Quthbullapur)

2. Get mentally ready to ‘finance’ your apartment, and NOT freeze on ‘size’ early-on
- Get ready to think how you are going to finance your purchase– own money, and loan
- Also, check the extent to which you are eligible to get a loan from banks since the banks are more amenable to providing loans to employed individuals who are employed with stable employers, and who have age on their side
- Check on eligibility is a major step that needs to be sorted out before you buy your apartment
- The size of the unit can wait till you are clear on how to arrange your funds

3. Understand your family needs and requirement in the short-term and long-run
- Once clear about finances, think about a 5, 10, 20 year horizon of you and your family
- The immediate needs like proximity to place of work, being in a spacious/green/good locality
- Existing and future social infrastructure
- Unique requirements of children like schooling, upbringing, subsequent jobs etc. are to be thought about at this stage
4. Decide on ‘size & specifications’ of an apartment as per budget & family needs
- Once the needs are well-understood and evaluated freeze on the size and location
- Final decision to be a deliberate, pragmatic and open-minded exercise
- Choose the right, trustworthy builder with RERA and GHMC approvals who would give you possession on time
- Choose an apartment with ‘utility room’ and balconies
- Be open to an ‘open or semi-open kitchen’
- More space is good, for ‘work from home’ and ‘study from home’ realities in a post-pandemic world
- While thinking of budget, a stretch of approximately Rupees 5 to 10 lakhs will always pay-off in the long run
- Similarly, more space is GOOD. Homes shrink faster than you think. More space will never hurt!

5. Make QUALITY a priority, and NOT get derailed from being ‘quality conscious’ without compromising on ‘QUALITY’
- Let ‘LOW PRICE’ NOT become the single most important criteria to buy your apartment
- Low price means a compromise on quality
- Check the specifications being offered by the builder, branded accessories/fittings and construction material being used
- Pay more if required, but get a quality apartment for long term safety and better resale
- Alternatively, take a smaller apartment if budget is a constraint, but NOT compromise on QUALITY
“If I were asked to name the chief benefit of the house, I should say: the house shelters daydreaming, the house protects the dreamer, the house allows one to dream in peace.”
