The house hunt begins

Its been a week here and after cooling my heels for a week am out for the house hunt. Had called up a couple of agents and decided to meet one of them after work. The guy meet me at 100ft road and agreed to show a few houses.

The agent named Prabhakaran, eating some kind of pan or supari, managed to speak some broken english. His first question - Sir, what is your budget? I was already not getting a good feeling. Thru the twists and turns of Indira nagar he managed to show me a few houses. The first house - the building dint look quite appealing to me. It was a 2BHK..the walls painted in bright green and the bedroom painted bright pink. was wondering if its a house or a zoo..and that too the agent was quoting a huge rent for this hopeless place..a straight reject. Next we went to a house on the first floor of a duplex. btw all this while me, and the two agents are travelling on a single bike..stuck in between..god save me..even this house dint look quite good. by this time i had left hopes with this agent. Finally he showed me a independent duplex house. we cudnt see the house from inside as the agent dint have the keys. atleast from outside this one looks much better than the other two. That was it for the day and i headed home. will be meetin another agent today. hoping for the best.
