Why This Kolaveri Di? Why slap a Politician? Why slap a Builder? Why slap a Banker? Slap Yourself!
Saurabh and Rashmi at The Times Property Showcase '11 - at Le Meridien, on 27th November 2011 |
We all want to slap someone. Thanks to Harvinder! Now, we know that slapping someone is easy!
However, after meeting Saurabh and Rashmi at The Times Property Exhibition, at Le Meridien Pune, this weekend, i realized that slapping someone else is not going to solve their issue. And the issues first time home buyers in Pune are facing. Particularly, those who are forced to live in East Pune. Around Eon IT Park. In Kharadi, Wagholi and Lohegaon.
You can't slap all those property buyers, who couple of years ago booked the flats in Kharadi without bothering to look into Water Affidavits signed by Pune builders!
If you slapped the tanker mafia - you will not get water. No one will collect and carry away the sewage in your society's tank.
You can't slap Pune Municipal Corporation for not developing so called D. P. Roads and other infrastructure in the area because PMC has proved, accepted and announced it's inability to do anything in the interest of the property tax payers in any part of Pune.
You can't slap the management of your company because if these IT companies can say "bye bye to Bangalore" and are ready to shift to Bengal, Andhra and Tamilnadu - they can say the same to Kharadi, anytime. Same with the automobile companies on Nagar Road! Gujarat is calling them!
So, the best way to solve your issue, my dear Saurabh & Rashmi, is to slap yourself!
Dear Rashmi, your first issue is your husband - Saurabh! Saurabh's problem is his first hand knowledge about the business challenges IT companies are facing today. Being aware about the slowdown and impending danger IT industry is facing - Saurabh is not ready to take a home loan and endanger your life. This is certainly the biggest obstacle in realizing your dream of owning a home. Remember, knowledgeable husband can't become a home owner in Pune real estate market!
Dear Saurabh, your wife, Rashmi, is your major issue. Though both of you have visited almost all projects in Wagholi, which is convenient and near her company on the same Nagar Road, Rashmi never forced you to book a flat in Wagholi. In fact, Rashmi confused you by giving you freedom to choose between Kharadi and Lohegaon-Dhanori. Remember, loving wife will never satisfy your wish to become a home owner in Pune real estate market!
Collectively, both of you are at fault! Both of you are responsible for not going for the world famous pre-launch offer of a 34 acre township opposite Kaveri Hotel on Nagar Road. If you had done that, along with hundreds of other property buyers, you would have lived in a fool's paradise for the last one year. And at Le Meridien you would have asked me, "Ravi, is it worth sacrificing 10 per cent of the agreement cost - means nearly 50 per cent of Rs. 2,50,000 booking amount we have paid a year ago - and cancel our pre-launch booking in this upcoming project in Wagholi?" Remember, sane guys can't become home owners in Pune real estate market!
Saurabh, how can a poet like you not believe in D. P.? Don't you know that D P means Dadasaheb Phalke - the first Indian who created celluloid dream! How can anybody own a home in Pune real estate market if doesn't believe in Pune Municipal Corporation's Day Dream?
Dear Rashmi & Saurabh, both of you are young and romantic at heart. Like your friends you should be optimistic. You should have faith that nothing is impossible in this world. Wagholi and Lohegaon can be merged with PMC - Paris or Patna or Panaji Municipal Corporation. Remember, a politician who doesn't believe in a coalition government can't become P M of India and the property buyer who doesn't believe in merger of a village in a city can't own a home in Pune real estate market.
Dear Rashmi & Saurabh, how can you expect a well lit - clean - pakka approach road to the project? Is it in the builder's capacity to see that public transport, auto rickshaw, grocery shop is available at the corner? How can you expect anything from the builder - what is not in his control - or what is in his complete control - like the property agreement! You have to believe in a builder's dream presented in the project brochure and give him the booking amount. Remember, one who demands to see the property agreement before giving booking amount can't own a home in Pune real estate market!
Dear Rashmi and Saurabh, please, don't obey your parents! Ideal parents force their children to take maximum possible home loan to buy as big a home as one can buy - as early as - their children can. Ideal parents don't discourage their children by presenting the spreadsheet which explains how their children would have to work even after their retirement age to repay the home loan. Remember, your education is only useful to get a job. Your education is not useful to live a happy life. Remember, those who can calculate can't buy a home in Pune real estate market!
Point is, why this kolaveri di? Just for not being able to book a 2 BHK Flat in Kharadi, Wagholi & Lohegaon-Dhanori in East Pune? No! No!! Don't blame anybody else!! Slap yourself!!!!
