Anarock Chairman Anuj Puri is advised to take the advantage of festive offers, especially when they result in savings on the overall cost of acquisition.
He said “Buying a home in one of life’s most cost-intensive financial undertakings and any real relief on this front is a value-add. The two important provisos on a scheme or offer are that the property in question should itself have a sufficient desirability quotient and that the developer is reputed and known to deliver value.
