How do you assess the true value of your house?

He had negotiated with the builder and till that point of time believed that with his negotiation skills he made a good bargain for the same. But once in the house he got to know through the neighbour next door that the other person bought at around INR 4 lakh lesser price.

Why don’t Indians buy houses in monsoons?

There are multiple factors why the home sales in monsoons are subdued. One obvious reason is that the Indians traditionally don’t make any high value purchases after Akshay Tirtiya and before Ganesh Chaturthi. Since a home is the most emotional & aspirational product; is life’s biggest purchase; and is in most of the case for the lifetime; the Indians prefer to wait till the beginning of the festive season. Inauspicious period of Shraddh and Pitripaksh also falls during the monsoon season, where the traditional belief is that any new purchase will invite the curse of the ancestors.
