Rushmore sees this as an opportunity to cater to an audience of individual investors and homeowners, by offering a compelling financialized residential real estate product in the range of Rs. 20-35 lakh.
“In Bangalore’s 1.5 million strong IT Industry, around 45-50% professionals are in the age category of 21 to 27 years with less than 5 years of work experience and there’s a large demand for high quality, purpose-built mid-term stay studio apartments for them.” – Alok Kumar Singh.
