  1. If you have huge amount of money and planning to invest it in secure medium and on the same time you want maximum ROI, so nothing can be better than the real estate market of Mumbai. For big investors its good to buy 3 BHK in Thane because in future it can draw good return as now days people are preferring to have big apartments because they want to live with comfort and luxury and for that its good option.
