Why This CA Chose Convenience Over Luxury in Mumbai | The Tenant

In this episode of The Tenant, meet Chartered Accountant Satkar Jain, who traded glamour for convenience by renting a modest 2BHK in one of Mumbai’s most practical neighbourhoods. With a 600 sqft carpet area, a spacious kitchen, and a deeply personal connection to the community, Satkar shares why living near Jain temples, hosting frequent guests, and staying close to essentials outweighed fancy real estate upgrades. From renting during COVID-19 at ₹33,000/month to now paying ₹60,000, hear how the rental journey has evolved, and why he says this home—though humble—has been “lucky” for him. Watch till the end as he talks about the upcoming redevelopment, rental trends, and why convenience is preferred over glamour for city living. #thetenant #mumbai #rentalstory #cityliving #convenienceoverglamour #2bhk #charteredaccountant #realestatemumbai #homejourney #risingrent Moneycontrol is India’s leading financial portal, offering market news, expert analysis, and powerful tools.
