Satyam Apartment's rental yield isn't what brokers claim.

Regarding capital appreciation for Satyam Apartment, since its possession was way back in 2013, the major appreciation surge has likely already happened. Older projects don't see the kind of rapid capital growth that newer, pre-launch ones might. You're buying into a mature asset, so don't expect miracles on the appreciation front in 5-7 years.

Managing property from abroad is a huge headache, believe me. I invested in a 3BHK in Alaknanda a few years ago, thinking I'd get good rental income while I was in the US. The actual yield was closer to 2-2.5% max, and dealing with tenant issues, repairs, and even just getting the rent on time was a nightmare. Property managers charge a bomb and sometimes don't even deliver. For Power of Attorney, you need someone super trustworthy, otherwise, it's a legal minefield. Don't rush into it just based on broker figures.

Bhai, you're absolutely right to be skeptical. Brokers always inflate figures, especially for rental yields. 3-4% net after expenses for an older project like Satyam Apartment in Delhi? Sounds too good to be true. I've seen this pattern many times, they show you the gross, not the net after maintenance, property tax, and possible vacancies. You need to factor in everything.
