Noida Flat’s Value Jumps From Rs 26 Lakh To Rs 42 Lakh
Man Buys Noida Flat For Rs 26 Lakh In 2021, Gets Offered Rs 42 Lakh 5 Years Later: "Not Going To Sell It" · NDTV

Vivek bought a small apartment in Noida in 2021 for Rs 26 lakh.

He bought it as an investment and did not plan to live there.

He furnished the apartment and rented it out through an agent.

The home was reportedly rented almost continuously for five years.

An agent later told him that someone would pay Rs 42 lakh for it.

That means the offer was about Rs 16 lakh more than what Vivek paid.

Even though the price increased, Vivek decided not to sell.

He said he did not need the money and had grown attached to the apartment.

His story led other people online to share their own property-investment experiences.
