posted on 4 MaySarjapur Road commute is still a nightmare
Namma Metro extension is already priced in for most areas, tbh. Just got possession on Sarjapur Road; commute is still a nightmare. Thinking about future appreciation near Kanakapura Road with Phase 3 coming. Is it still an investment window there for a 2BHK around ₹90L, or is that also too late? What's your take?

So, is there *any* area left in Bangalore for first-time buyers with good appreciation potential under 90
My cousin booked a 2BHK in Agrahara Layout, off Kanakapura Road, about 3 years ago for 65L. It's now valued at around 85L, so appreciation has been good. But he bought it for living, not just investment. If you're looking for quick returns, maybe not the best time. But for long-term stay with decent capital growth, it could work. Just don't expect 20-30% jump in 2-3 years, those days are probably gone.
₹90L for a 2BHK on Kanakapura Road depends a lot on the builder and exact location, and also the size. What's the carpet area you're looking at? And which specific projects are you considering? Some projects near Akshayanagar are still decent value if you negotiate well.
Totally agree, it's not just about the price tag. The current market conditions in Bengaluru are tricky; interest rates are high, and while demand is there, affordability is a huge factor. For 90L, you might get a good 2BHK, but for sustained appreciation, you need to look at infrastructure development beyond just the metro, like new offices or commercial hubs coming up. If only metro is the driver, then yes, appreciation might slow down post-operation, just like previous metro corridors have shown.
True, location is key. But also check the RERA completion date carefully. Many projects on Kanakapura Road are facing delays, even the reputed ones. Don't fall for pre-EMI offers blindly without doing your due diligence.
Builder ka naam batao, bhai. Bahut farak padta hai track record aur quality mein.
Bhai, Sarjapur Road ka toh bolna hi kya. I bought a 3BHK there last year hoping for WFH to continue, but now office is hybrid. 2 hours one way is my new normal, it's just stress. Metro will help, but for now, it's just a promise. Kanakapura Road sounds good on paper, but I'm worried about the same pricing-in issue you mentioned. Don't want to make the same mistake twice with overpaying for future infrastructure.
Totally agree with you on Sarjapur Road. My office is near Marathahalli and it's a daily battle, especially near the outer ring road. Regarding Kanakapura Road, ₹90L for a 2BHK seems steep even with Phase 3 metro coming. Are prices already this high there for a decent project?
Agreed, rates are up. My friend booked a 2BHK near Adigara Kallahalli last year for 75L, now it's quoted at 88L by the same builder. But the appreciation might slow down once metro is fully operational, no? Like, once it's 'priced in' completely?
Haan, Kanakapura mein rates badh gaye hain. Aavalahalli side mein bhi 80L+ chal raha hai for good builders. It's crazy.
