A home is so much more than a roof over your head, it’s a space where you raise a family in security with the best facilities money can buy for your family. It’s not just a place that is good for you alone. It’s a space that is good for your family, where the market is within reach and schools/colleges not too far away, while medical care facilities are just about a stone’s throw away from where you are at. Most importantly, places of worship are also nearby… for that spiritual recharge, we all need to keep us going through the day and the week.
