Mumbai is a densely populated city that many people move to for jobs and entertainment. This high demand for housing has caused prices for apartments to increase dramatically. However, there are still affordable housing options available in suburbs like Mira Road, Thane, Navi Mumbai, Goregaon, Malad, Bhayander and Virar. Both private developers and the government are working to build new townships with affordable apartments to accommodate more residents. Residential apartments have become very popular compared to houses or bungalows due to their lower costs, amenities, and ability to get loans for purchases. Location, loan details, taxes, and costs should all be researched when looking to buy an apartment in Mumbai or its suburbs.
