\nWhen I was working as a junior engineer in the Irrigation Department of the erstwhile Andhra Pradesh government, I got to see how homes were being built, how tenders and contracts were being made. I realised that the demand to buy homes was so high, there were so many engineers and contractors. Despite this, people weren\u2019t able to buy homes.<\/p>\n
Affordability for middle-class buyers and lack of proper knowledge about home loans were the two biggest problems. That\u2019s when I decided to start building homes, keeping in mind the loan eligibility of salaried employees, cost-efficiency through large-scale projects and direct marketing. All these made Janapriya stand out from the rest of the builders. To date, building affordable homes is and will always continue to be the core of Janapriya.<\/p>\n

\nI was not the most studious kid, but I knew I was always different. I say this with utmost humility. My ideas, thoughts, discussions and dreams were different, realistic, practical and beyond those of people my age. I also always looked beyond my own needs and solutions. So, while I can\u2019t say I saw this coming, I knew I wanted to be able to bring solutions to the table.<\/p>\n
\nHyderabad is one of the most thriving markets for real estate and will continue to be for various reasons: Of all the metropolitan cities in the country, it is right in the middle. Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru and Kolkata, all seem like they\u2019re in different corners of the country. Next, the cost of living here is, competitively, not very high. We also have a great climate. We have no complaints about the weather for 300 of the 365 days. We\u2019re also very welcoming of people migrating from the North, South and North-East. Language is never a barrier as the locals speak Hindi and Urdu, apart from English and Telugu. Education and healthcare are on par with other cities, and are more affordable. The pollution levels, too, are moderate, unlike all the other metropolitan cities. The IT boom has only seen an upward growth over the past decade. Digitalisation, right from education (online classes), food (delivery apps), shopping, entertainment (OTT) have all won Hyderabad good points in real estate.<\/p>\n
\nI\u2019m not your typical \u2018always-on-the-job\u2019 businessman, so I\u2019ve never been the father who was away from his familial duties. My wife is half of Janapriya \u2014 her name is Priya (smiles). Both my sons decided to join me, so it\u2019s now a family business. My older son has been working with the company for 15 years and the younger son for nine years now. I\u2019ve never had to tell them what to do; we, as parents, gave them the freedom to choose any career path they like, and they ended up here.<\/p>\n
\nYou\u2019d be disappointed to not have me tell you that I wake up at 5 am, something that most successful people do. I\u2019m not the disciplined man people think I am. But, my mind is disciplined, fast and always working. It never tires of thinking. The way I see it, all my work is done in my head. I do the thinking, problem-finding, problem-solving, creating, imagining and decision-making in my head. That\u2019s where my work for the day ends. I\u2019m fortunate to have been able to hire the best people, who execute what I plan extremely well. I\u2019m not a busy or stressed man like most others. I know what I\u2019m good at and stick to that.<\/p>\n
\nI\u2019d not call it grand or personal, but it\u2019s just an idea in my head: a satellite township that has everything for everyone. Right from schools, libraries and playgrounds for kids, to colleges, malls, multiplexes, auditoriums, clubs, meet-and-greet areas, hospitals, pharmacies, etc. It\u2019ll be a town on its own with people not having to travel for hours to get to where they want to. I don\u2019t know if this will become a reality in my lifetime, but I hope to do something along these lines.<\/p>\n
\nI\u2019m a simple man who came from a middle-class home. I love and respect the idea of agriculture and farming. I own farms and animals, whose organic produce I\u2019m extremely proud to sell. This, and the quality education through Janapriya schools have my heart. Neither of these are for profit, they\u2019re just something I\u2019m passionate about.<\/p>\n
\nThe food served in Telugu homes<\/p>\n
\nI\u2019m not, but I like the concept of God. How man sleeps in peace knowing there\u2019s a God<\/p>\n
\nApartment, but I live in a villa<\/p>\n
\nBeaches<\/p>\n
\nCoffee<\/p>\n
\nAbsolute honesty<\/p>\n
\nWe\u2019ve built 35,000 homes to date. I hope the number touches one lakh in my lifetime<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.janapriya.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/hyderabad-express-25-11-2021.jpg\")
