What is the image of a builder in Patna in the
mind of Patnaites? Anything and everything but humble. We in Bihar no more
respect HUMILITY, a virtue engrained in us for centuries. In Patna real estate,
to prove that one has arrived a lot of “materialistic display” is wanting. Humility
is equated as “someone without promise”.
A builder in Patna makes you wait at his offices’
reception ( even when you have prior appointment and you have re-confirmed
directly before entering his office), just to show how busy he/she is!! The
matter of fact is that in the last two years in Patna real estate, no one is
BUSY. More surprisingly the builder who is making you wait might be busy
posting selfies on Facebook. And to add to the woes the same builder is a dud
in information technology and all that he knows is Facebook and other similar
basics on internet.
Time was never important for us in Bihar. We did
and do everything at our own Bihari pace. This is one thing from the past that
has not changed and everything else has. The modern business environment of real estate industry in Patna is addicted with “compulsive bragging”. If you
are sitting with friends and having fun time; you tell your better half even
that you are in a meeting. The business
ethics have melt down to levels that cannot be imagined in day to day routine.
If you are dealing with anyone related to Patna
real estate, remember all of them are “BIG”. Please do not ask how and why? But
they are. They will talk as if they keep doing business in crores daily!!!
Surprisingly go and ask anyone planning to buy a flat in Patna, 80% of them do
not know any brand in real estate at any level.
If you are not a buyer, please do not try to meet
builders in Patna without reference. They act so pricey; that you feel even the
poorest of real estate market can nourish such snobs. The quality of staff in
their offices directly reflects the master. Remember there is a right hand of
builder, means a manager who can only get you access to the builder. All that
we can say about this creature is that “ let’s not talk about him”. Yes, ALICE
in POORland!!! One manager told us that they are so big in Patna that they even
do not need any advertisement ( his boss spends lakhs to be just quoted in
dailies and ribbon cutting), they are number one!!! We did not tell him;
maintaining the Bihari humility; that in an extensive research carried by us in
last six month on Patna real estate, which consists of at least 200 articles,
their name never crossed across. Really the attitude determines altitude!!!!!
While we write about the snob culture brewing in
Patna real estate, we would like to mention that still there are some very fine
gentlemen who are a part of this industry. We respect them; they respect work
and not the mobile brand that you are carrying. Business is ever growing and
learning process. We therefore hope that the real estate in Patna gets rid of
ignorance and arrogance, sooner the better.
