FAQs

Is renting better than buying in India?

It depends on property price, rent yield, loan EMI, appreciation and what you do with the down payment.

Does this compare SIP returns?

Yes. The simulator compares buying with investing the down payment and monthly EMI difference.

Are taxes and registration included?

A practical buffer is included in the buying cost estimate, but exact stamp duty varies by state.

What if property appreciation is high?

Higher appreciation can make buying more attractive, but EMI and liquidity risk still matter.

Is this investment advice?

No. It is a scenario simulator to compare assumptions before deeper planning.
