Top 5 tools which will make property purchase easier in 2017
It is not very often that one meets people who are happy to stay in a rental house. Abhishek Singh, an independent technology evangelist is one of the very few who argues about residing in a property on lease. Freedom from monthly EMI payments, dealing with unscrupulous agents and developers seem to be the main reasons behind the stance.
"I have no intention of being caught in the web of delayed possession, bank processes, ownership issues, etc. I have heard stories of my friends and acquaintances who had a difficult time dealing with such atrocities," says Singh. "My parent’s house is in Rohtak and being the only child I treat that as an asset for the future. Till then, I am happy staying as a tenant," says he.
There are many like Singh, who do not mind forgoing a property purchase for the reasons cited and many others. However, the real estate market has undergone changes and today, the means and methods of purchase are very different and advanced.
