1 cr has become common price for 2 bhk in metro cities

I am just relating with our parent's era how they could afford to get house and do so much with limited income at that time in 90s. But with our gen I keep seeing these exorbitant prices. Do you think and plan on making investment to buy, I know many folks have very good income here and it might seem not so tough but generally speaking how shd one plan to get these things into place for house, education, etc etc with such rising prices.

The prices have inflated because of the new found millionaires (startup founders) who would pay ₹100s of crores for flats but feel ticklish when employees ask for even 10% hike. Even with an in hand salary of 4+ lakhs, when you have family responsibilities, you may not be able to afford one.

If I got a 2BHK in 1 cr in Mumbai I would grab it and run. Just saw a decent 2BHK in a good location in sobo, asking 3.75 cr. Golf course view 3rd floor in a 3 floor building.
Family and responsibilitied lead me to explore such pricing, mein toh 1 room kitchen studio apartment mein reh sakta hu. One TV, one PS5, lounger chair, single foldable bed, bas khatam.

I think it’s best to avoid buying apartment in metro cities. Most of these cities will face major water problems and water logging in sometime(unless the local authority does something which I highly doubt).

Best would be to wait till you are in your late 40s and early 50s, or near your FIRE age and then decide to invest.

Real estate prices are highly inflated and will stay likewise, owing to NRIs and business owners(sometimes politicians through shell corps.) buying majority of the apartments(pls correct me if I am wrong here).
