What's the real estate appreciation in your area now? And if you are from South Bombay or planning to settle there, you might be aware of the skyrocketing prices to buy a flat in the posh locality. How about getting a 2BHK in Colaba or Worli for not crores but lakhs?
A Reddit post shared a newspaper column that asked readers to keep a budget of Rs 90 lakh to choose between Colaba and Worli. But, there's a catch. Any guesses? The write-up comes from years ago and hints at the cost of living from the days of September 2005.
