Our family was looking for a reasonably large 3 bed apartment. When we visited the sample apartment at the Riverdale office, we were very happy with the spacious interiors in the living and dining section. What we liked were the number of balconies in the apartment. But most importantly what worked for us was the kitchen. With the dry balcony, the ventilation, the space for our double door refrigerator and the quartz lining on top of the kitchen platform, we knew that this is what we wanted.

We first moved to Pune when we were doing our degree programs. Since then and gradually moving on from our first jobs, we have been living in a one bed apartment that sufficed our needs. As our family grew, we began looking for a 2 bed apartment that would be useful for our growing family. When we saw the smallest option with 2 separate bedrooms, we knew that this would be something that we could also afford and be happy with.

I bought into Riverdale Residences when it was launched several years back in 2018. Having taken possession last year in 2022, I can share with you that the one reason for buying my home was this being an exclusive 3 bed gated community. Our riverfront facing home has open views with nothing else in the front. .

I first heard off Riverdale Heights when I was in Mumbai. With plans of migrating to Pune on account of work at EON at Kharadi, I began looking for a ready-to-move-in place. I was introduced to Riverdale Heights and was quite intrigued with the living facilities. Now, having taken possession several years ago, I couldn’t be happier.

I was looking to make an investment and was not sure of where I needed to put my money. I definitely did not want to be sitting on liquidity having sold some other property. When I was told of the unit plan size along with its pricing and the probability of future appreciation and the rental yields, I jumped at it. Being an early investor I secured by purchase at a much lower value compared to the rates at which this is being re-sold at the moment. I certainly got lucky with this investment.

I was looking to make an investment in some commercial real estate given the return on investment being higher and also being able to secure higher rentals. I was looking to negate any risk as far as my investment goes. And located right here in the heart of Kharadi, commercial real estate has huge demand given the range of businesses moving in from global MNCs to large Indian companies and SMEs. All of this coupled with a thriving residential population, I decided to take the plunge with an investment in a retail showroom at MELAVA AVENUE.

I wanted to diversify my assets and was looking to invest in some real estate offering other than plain vanilla residential real estate. Needless to say that given the opportunity to earn disproportionately higher rentals was something that I was looking to take advantage off. So, when I was saw this opportunity to own office space, this seemed to be a great option given that I was also looking to own and possibly move into my own office which would also be closer to my residence.
