My Surya Apartments ROI math just isn't adding up
Is Surya Apartments' promised capital appreciation just a myth for investors, ya fir kuch real numbers hain? I've seen the brochures, but the ground reality for rental yield seems pretty low. From my experience, projects with this kind of pricing often end up with a high investor ratio. What's the actual resale market like for these units? My calculations show the capital appreciation might not cover the opportunity cost in 5-7 years. Disagree? Tell me why.

I'm a bit torn here. While the points about low rental yield and high investor ratio are valid, I also think some projects take time to mature. Maybe Surya Apartments is one of those? The initial pricing was attractive for some, but if resale is tough, then it's a trap. Has anyone actually managed to sell their unit there recently, and at what profit/loss?
My broker was pushing Surya Apartments really hard, saying it's a 'future hotspot'. But when I asked for concrete data on past appreciation in similar projects by the same builder, he just started talking about 'potential'. Red flag for me. I'm a first-time buyer and can't afford to lose money. What other projects in Gurugram should I be looking at with better ROI potential?
U8 asked about per sqft rate. When I inquired last month, they were quoting around 9500-10000 per sqft, which felt high considering the phase of development. That's almost what some ready-to-move projects are asking in more prime locations.
Totally agree with U4. I've been burned by 'potential' before. Maybe look at projects closer to established commercial hubs. The current market conditions in Gurugram are tricky, appreciation isn't guaranteed anywhere, so safety should be key.
Don't trust brokers blindly. Always do your own research. That 'future hotspot' line is an old trick. For better ROI, look at projects with good connectivity and established social infrastructure, even if they are slightly pricier initially. Baliawas side might be an option, though it's still developing.
I actually visited Surya Apartments a few months back. The construction quality looked decent, but the location is still developing. My biggest concern was the number of unsold units and the general vibe that it's mostly investors buying, not end-users. That always makes me nervous about resale value.
Exactly my thought! If the area isn't developing fast enough for end-users, who will buy it from you later? It's a long-term hold with very little short-term gain it seems. Better to look at something more established.
Haan, high investor ratio is a red flag. Jab sabko bechna hota hai, prices naturally dip. Koi end-user hai hi nahi rehne ke liye. What was the per sqft rate they were quoting when you visited? Was it in line with other projects on Airport Road (Gurgaon side)?
Bhai, you're not alone. My friend booked a 2BHK there last year, hoping for good returns, but abhi tak toh usko bhi tension ho rahi hai. Rental yield seems to be hovering around 2-3% only, which is really low for Gurugram. I was looking at a unit near Basai, and even there the numbers look better.
Exactly! If rental yield is so low, capital appreciation has to be phenomenal to make up for it. And in this market, that's a big 'if'. I heard some people are already trying to exit but finding no buyers.
2-3%? That's terrible! Meri toh saari savings lag jaati. What about the appreciation, kuch dikh raha hai kya?
