Housing query for bangalore

Software Engineer

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

I am a middle class guy working as a senior engineer in one of the product companies. I belong from the north-east, and I am the only child in my family. 

Since covid, I was working in a wfh setup. Recently, my company has ended work from home for everyone, and I am supposed to move to Bangalore very soon or quit. 

I am an active user on all social media groups on Reddit, Fb, etc. For the past couple of months after seeing so much of negative news about Bangalore, Especially the high population, skyrocketing rents, the auto unions, corruption, cut-throat competition, discriminative news, traffic issues, etc. It makes me nervous to be honest. My wfh here was pretty chill, and I had a very limited social circle here, but was satisfied since I could spend most time with my mom and dad. 

Im very afraid now about what should I do next, shall I quit the job and search for wfh, or shall I make my move. I don’t have any acquaintances there, no friends, no idea about what I’ll be doing next, how to start house hunting, or job hunting. At this point I am miserable and overwhelmed to think about all of this. 

Anyone who has gone through all of these, If you can share your 2cents, experiences or thoughts, about how you dealt this phase. It will be really helpful for me at this point in my journey. Thanks in advance! 🙏🏻

Get a wfh job ... period. 
  
 Bangalore is overrated. 
  
 Better to move to noida...u will face less racism

Senior Consultant

I am planning on moving to BLR next year, most likely in Feb but definitely before the first quarter. The plan is to stay for a year to network amongst the startup crowd. I wanted to know where I could bunker down for a year which is closer to such places and won't break my bank. I'll be living alone so anything from 1RK to 1BHK would work.

Analyst 

I'll be moving to Blr for 2-3 months, have to WFO, office in Whitefield.

I'm very confused about finding an accommodation. 

Could you suggest any reliable sources where I can find accommodation and what areas will provide an affordable yet good accommodation. 

I searched for PGs and flats, PGs seem too congested and seem too overpriced, while flats have high deposit and lock ins.

House hunting in Blr

Product Manager

I am moving to BLR next month. I want to have some advice from people already livin there. I will be working near Indiranagar and am in the middle of figuring out the best place to stay. I am confused regarding both the area and kind of stay.

Kind of stays: CoLive/PGs or 1RK/1BHK 
Area: Near Indiranagar, Domlur, Embassy Golf View or areas which come near Purple Line i.e. Kadugodi, HopeFarm, Hoodi, Kundalahalli, SeetharamPalya.

Would really appreciate it if you could give suggestions, provide any sort of leads or even share your experience.

Got a job offer which is asking me to relocate to bangalore. I’m currently based out of Gurgaon and not familiar with the rent/amenties scene there. 

What is a good salary range to live a good life there? By good I mean 
- Living in a decent (subjective ik) society with some basic amenities like gym, park, pool (would love that) etc. 
- Dining/Partying at least once a month. 
- Going out to some place atleast once a week
- Having a maid for cooking + cleaning


Other expenses would remain same across cities (digital products/shopping etc)

All pointers appreciated.

Whats a good salary to live comfortably in Bangalore?

Hey guys,

I'll be moving to Bangalore by the end of the month. My office is in Kadubeesanahalli and has a hybrid setup (2 days a week in the office). Suggest the best places to accommodate under 20k including food. I would like to live alone.

Thanks

Moving to Bangalore this month!

Hey folks. Need help from veteran bangalore people. I am due to shift to bangalore in march/april. My office will be in Bellandur area. I want to stay close to my office to avoid commute pains (due to my Tier 2 overhang). Please suggest which areas would be suitable for me, especially also after considering traffic directions during office hours. TIA

Finding a house in Bangalore

Business Development Manager

In need of a 1bhk flat in Indiranagar or Domlur, all help would be appreciated. Can do with some broker’s numbers as well.

They're compelling us to start WFO from here on even though I've spoken to my managers about this many times, my role doesn't require that I WFO because the people I closely work with are all clients and colleagues from other countries. 😒

The challenge is finding *a decent place at a reasonable rate*. I'm aware of landlords exploiting this situation (post-covid WFO) and I don't want to get exploited. Would also like to save as much money as possible because my parents depend entirely on me.

Please suggest options if you know of any decent flats (2 people sharing a big room or 2 people sharing a flat) or single occupancy at around 5k - 8k per person in and around ITPL and Marathahalli. I'd also like to hire a cook, so there will be those expenses, too. Not interested in spending a bigger amount on rent, especially given that layoffs are still happening.

Looking for a place for rent around Marathahalli or Whitefield

Analyst

Moving to Blr in a couple months, but my office is located right smack in Central Bangalore in Ashok Nagar with exorbitant rents. Where should I look for 1/2 bhk flats if my goal is to reduce commute time?

Flats near MG Road/ Ashok Nagar/ Cubbon Rd.

IB Associate

How much should I budget for rent, if my salary is 7.25 LPA? Joining a new company so not really sure how much I will get in hand. From my calculations, I will be getting 53-55k(as CTC contains PF contri too), so I'm budgeting 17k as rent (around 33% of 53k). Office is near Bellandur which I have heard has crazy rents, so I don't mind staying a little far to save some money in rent. Should I budget more or is this amount fine? Thanks!

PS-im planning to rent a room with attached bathroom in 1/2/3 bhk house/flat, doesn't really matter if gated society or not.

How much rent as part of salary

I joined a new team in my company which is located at banglore.

My company is located at Bellandur. 

Need advice like,
Where can I find a good PG to stay in initially.
And then which is nearest place with good 2bhk homes in affordable price.

Looking for Flats or PGs near Sector 6,HSR Layout

Greetings,

As the headline says I will be moving to Banglore for the first time next week. Finding accommodation here is a real adventure (Not a good one) from what I read and seen. I wanted advice from people who are already there. what is best the way to go about it? I have been using MagicBricks and Flat & Flatmates to search near Salarpuria Softzone, Bellandur area but have not been able to find anything good.
Is it hard to find one without a broker also how do you find a broker in the first place?

Friends have suggested joining Facebook groups which I am going to try next. 
I am also contemplating whether living in a PG or a Flat is a better option. For a flat, I would need flatmates which I currently don't have. I want my commute to be as low as possible because I heard Bangalore has godly planned road infra. My company has provided 15 day stay I will have to find it in the given time only.

Please let me know how you guys found accommodation. Tips and recommendations are appreciated. If anyone is aware of any empty flat please mention the property name/address. If anyone has stayed in a PG with not too bad food please mention it. 
Thanks.
