Career Vs. Family

A lot of us go through the confusion between scenario A and B. Both hubby and I have been in scenario A for past 16 years. In corporate career for nearly 10 years and working on our own past 6 years, but at the pace of scenario A. There is no corporate growth ladder ahead of us. But we are home when ...

Bangalore -- To Settle or Not to Settle

My thoughts of Bangalore resonates with Poofygoogle's comment above. I love visiting the place, the restaurants, shopping etc. Looking at my relatives living there, there is good availability and affordability of maids, cooks and several other services. Every time I visit, one single thing that puts ...

R2Ied in 2010, R2King in 2011(Kochi) - Schools, Real Estate, R2K Networking

Here is our latest update. We purchased a villa in the outskirts of Kochi, in sashtamugal. This is on NH49 - in the kochi-munnar-madura highway between thrippunithara and muvattupuzha. It is walking distance to bus stop - plenty of ernakulam-mvpzha buses (low floor too) available. We were second ...

R2Ied in 2010, R2King in 2011(Kochi) - Schools, Real Estate, R2K Networking

It was one of the plans and layout we really liked (the flats), however, we were not willing to wait 2 years to move in. Further, all flats we looked at were heavily underpopulated. Hence decided on a villa in a project which was completed last year and most villas were already occupied.

Hi Suma Chechi,
Imperial gardens is a completed project? I just googled and saw a 4BHK for sale at 1.3 Cr. It is out of our budget and the house is also bigger than what we are looking for. We are looking at 1500-1800 Sq Ft 3 BHK within 60 Lakhs.
