Things that you should know about the housing in India
The first year that I arrived in India, the company
that helped me to come here also assisted me to rent a flat in the city that I
lived in Pune. That was my case and for all of the people coming here in India
through a company and for others also who went through the same process. For
those who are assisted by the college or most of the times friends. This case
will explain you what will happen if during your stay here you decide to move
out, here are the things that you should know:

The deposit
There are two important things that you have to keep
in mind when it comes to the deposit in India, it varies depending on the
cities you live i.e 3 months in Pune/ 10 months in Bangalore; and it is most of
the time non refundable or partially refundable, what I am trying to say is
that you will be lucky if you are able to get it back at least partially.
The agreement
There is only one thing that I have to say, just
read the agreement and don’t mind asking question or help from your friend who
lived here for a longer period than you.
The rent
The rent may vary depending on different factors,
such as: cities, areas, your nationalities or race (unfortunately, yes this is
the sad truth), your food habit (non-veg or veg) and so forth.
Most of the time it may happen that you will be
under strict restrictions from your owner, rules as these: let your friend stay
over for the night, or no party at your place, or no non-vegetarian food
allowed in your apartment etc.
