WHY TO INVEST IN PRE-LEASED PROPERTIES AT AHMEDABAD (INDIA) ?
PRE-LEASED commercial properties provide fixed lease income over a 3 to 9 year period and successively exit with a reasonable high capital escalation.

India is going through a phase of high inflation and high interest rates. Repo rate (Repo rate is the discount rate at which banks borrow from RBI) & Reverse Repo rate (Reverse repo rate is the rate at which RBI borrows money from banks.) are 7.50% and 6.50% respectively. To limit inflation Interest rates are high.

When RBI will slowly reduce the interest rate, once inflation is under control during such phase preleased properties are best options to get good rental yields & exit at such a point will give best returns for your investment.
