Nearly in a bankrupted situation bros...this is the biggest mistake of my life.

2014-15 lo nearly 1 crore INR invested in and around Vijayawada, with the hope that Amaravathi's demand will spill over to VJA.

I transferred when 1 GBP = 90 INR. Now its nearly 110 INR.

Meanwhile:

1. The real estate in VJA collapsed

2. No demand for flats or plots. Invested money on construction of flats which are not selling now due to all these cyclones and bad sentiment in VJA.

3. Getting too difficult to bring money from India to UK.

4. Everyone wants their share - brokers, bankers, real estate agents, money transfer agents....

5. Children do not even have an idea about how things work in India and they can't go and claim after say 10-20 years even if I gift them now.

Agree 100% with this…it’s a big hassle with rupee depreciation, cash management, abcd kids who don’t know how to deal with Indian investments.

Just invest in S&P or your fav stocks in the US and chill without having to deal with anyone but ur phone brokerage app.

Is this true about Amaravathi @kakatiya. You invested upwards of 1 cr, hope you got good returns on it.

Its true about Amaravati. After losing heavily in stocks between 2021-23, I invested 4+Cr in Amaravati in 2023 (before TG elections) and 2024( before AP elections). Stocks lo poyinavi anni vacchayi and good profit. The best decision I made in my life. Original gaa Hyd lo villa kosam pedadham anukunna, aa rates choosi mingalem anukoni Amaravati lo pettaanu. Hyd lo 2017-19 madhyalo konnavallu and Amaravati lo 2021-2022 madhyalo pettinavallu too lucky.

That's not a wise decision. Direct gaa Amaravati lo ne petti vadhileyalasindhi. Amaravati lo pettadaniki main reasons - Govt has obligtions to develop infra according to the CRDA master plan (Vijayawada and other places lo no such obligation, including in Hyd), its new city, capital, and the land there is limited - its 215 Sq KM, 3 times smaller than Hyd. Most of the land is with Govt, farmers has nearly 1/4th land in what they have given. Dhantlo kooda sagam mandhi pillalu kosam ammakunda pettukunnaaru, so the land avialability in market is limited. Govt plotting chesindhi, geo-tagging undhi - relatively for us (NRIs) legally safe.

Bro India lo if you invest in the right places the returns are phenomenal, the kind of return you can’t get in an already developed economy like america. Pre covid or early covid times lo konna villas are now at 3-4 times your original investment. Telangana lo land prices have appreciated by 4 to 5 times since 2019. Before elections a friend was trying to sell his land near Amaravathi for 95L per acre, last minute the buyer backed out as Jagan’s government was not allowing registrations in that area, last month he sold that land for 6.75 crores and now bought a villa in Hyderabad, the under construction villa already appreciated by 1 cr since he bought it and by the time the villas are handed over the prices will be in 11 to 12 cr range. Another friend bought a villa in Mokila for 1.5 cr in 2020, now the same villa is 5 cr+ .  Don’t buy apartments, don’t buy lands that are 15 kilometers from the city and expect the land rates to double in 2 years but if you plan sensibly and buy, you will get good returns and will be set for retirement.

I still dont understand why NRIs are buying villas, lands, agriculture lands, farm houses in india.

one house that too if your parents are staying in that is enough.

you can always buy once you move back to india (if you really want to move back).

Because they're not stupid and live in reality and the price won't be the same in 10 years vs what its now.  The price of Avg villa in 2014 - 1.5 crore.... Now its 7-8 Crores

Here is the real life story happened with in my family I would like to share.... 2 Middle class Brothers came to US 1984-88 for Masters and have lived here for 30 years.... 5 years back iddaru move ayyipoyar India ki.

Their father was civil engineer, so he knows in and out of Hyderabad. Both brothers started off with nothing and selfmade. 

1980-1990's

 Brother A - With father's advice, He bought lands in and around Hyd with his salary on regular basis (Kukkatpally, Medchal, Nanakramguda, Madhapur, Sangareddy, Mokila). At that time an acre used to cost 50,000 rupees an acre in Medchal or Sangareddy which is like what u save in a month in US. He now owns 40 acres in the heart of West Hyd and several prime commercial lands. 

Brother B - Always demeaned India and only looked at the bad side of India. India is corrupt and lawlessness ekkuva. Rupee devaluation. Believed the American dream of just owning a home and 401K.......   father force chesthe he bought couple of commercial lands in Madhapur with his brother. 

 

Fast forward to 2024:

Brother A Networth - 1000 Crores ($115M USD) 

Brother B Networth - 50 crores ($4.5M).

(which is mostly tiedup in 401K and just those 2 commercial lands he bought).

 

Now you decide. Would u bet on horse that goes from. 

Developing India: 4.2T to 25T (500-800% GDP increase)

or

Developed USA: 27T to 46T (80% GDP Increase) ???

1.6B people living on 1/3rd the size of US, where land is scarce resource in India and incomes rising 3 times faster than US wage growth.

 

USD is just 1 country currency.... What matters is Purchasing Power and Compounding Growth. India will beat the sh!t out of any developed country in compounding growth over next 25 years even in worst case scenario. Just make sure you invest in right place, edho cheap gaa vastundi ani don't buy litigation lands properties. Invest in right places

Kokapet, Narsingi manam 10galem, minimum 10 cr pettali akkada. Mokila, Shankarpally, Kollur, Puppalguda are better options bro, if you are looking at 10+ years then even Chevella and surrounding areas will get you phenomenal returns. Once Neopolis is completed in Kokapet with 100 Million Sq Ft of commercial space and another 300 Million Square feet of residential space, the heart of the city will permanently move towards Kokapet. Any area that is 30 minutes from Kokapet will be golden. Kollur, Mokila, Shankarpally, chevella varaku ekkadain kallu muskuni konachu, short run lo taggina stagnate ayina 10 years lo you will get minimum 4 to 5 times your investment.

1. If you intend to pass it on to your children, you should teach them as to how India works and what needs to be done. Don't make the mistake of immersing them in entirely western way of upbringing.

2. Why not try educational loan and Crypto and gold to avoid TCS, in case you sell away the land?

One of my MS friends is form Nowluru village, he is telling me that land rates in his village are now touching 7 to 8 crores. Pre-elections 1 crore anna evvaru kone vallu kadanta.. How fortunes change. How will be the land rates in Amaravathi CRDA area in 3 years bro. Developed plots ippudu konte emanna use unda? They are quoting 40 to 50k for residential plots and 60 to 75k for commercial plots in villages like Nowluru, Uddandarayunipalem, Penumaka etc..

Most to the prices are inflated. I will say buy only if price makes sense and will keep you away from Mortgages for 25 years.

You are forgetting the key point here… A has people and ability to take care of the lands and dispose them when needed, and manage the cash when he sells them.

how many of todays abcd kids can manage them? how many of us can manage them after 20 years when all of our contacts will be gone?

that’s why best is to invest in US stock market and some in US RE.
