Now, Chakan, hot real estate investment destination in Pune, has a new addition - Eiffel City, Boulevard township of 2 and 3 bhk flats and Villas

Nahar Riddhi Siddhi Developers, dealing in bungalow and farm house plots have formed a public limited company, Eiffel Developers and Realtors Ltd. and launched their first township Eiffel City in Chakan.

Eiffel City:

Eiffel City, as per the ad, is also Pune's first "Boulevard Township"! (Please, do not ask me what it means.) Rahul Nahar and Santosh Bhansali, of Eiffel Developers, are very much in a hurry to en cash the real estate boom in Chakan. So they have launched the project even when the brochure and the website is not ready. But they had enough time to invent attractive lables for the project. For example: "European Homes" "The Next Gurgaon" and "Boulevard Township"!

Property Prices:

But they have made a sample flat and a price list of 2 bhk and 3 bhk flats. Bookinbg rate of the flat, i have heard, is in the range of 2,100 to 2,300 rupees per sq.ft. Because, as usual, Eiffel City charges you for the view and the floor rise.

Areas of 2 bhk flat is around 750 - 870 sq.ft. and fits into the budget of 20 lakhs. 3 bhk flat is around 1250 sq.ft. and fits into the budget of 30 lakhs.

Real estate investment opportunity:

Interesting thing is only Eiffel Developers are not in a hurry, property buyers and real estate investors in Pune are also in a hurry to book a flat in Eiffel City. I have heard, around 100 flats are booked before the project is officially launched.

8) Anuj Puri(Chairman & Country Head Jones Lang Lasalle Meghraj) Explodes Some Realty Myths

Pune demystified There are some myths that are particular to the growth of Pune. These need to be demolished as well.
Myth 1: Pune's real estate boom is driven entirely by IT and IT-enabled services.

Fact: It is true that this sector's increasing presence in areas like Hinjewadi, Kharadi, Phursungi and Hadapsar has enabled Pune to emerge the new IT/ITeS Mecca. However, Pune'e real estate market will also continue to benefit from its growing manufacturing sector. The immediate future will bring considerable growth in the traditional industrial locations of Chakan, PimpriChinchwad and Bhosari and the decisive emergence of hotbeds like Talegaon. Chakan will see the entry of Volkswagen, and New Chakan is the proposed site of Pune's new international airport. Meanwhile, General Motors has selected Talegaon for its new plant.
