How to survive your first stint in a city like Bangalore

05:22

I moved to Bangalore a couple of years back and well versed with the hassles of moving cities in trying to find a new place to live, new stuff for the décor, etc. As many of you would know, Bangalore is a fast-paced city with a cosmopolitan population that is largely made of highly qualified technology and creative professionals. Hunting for a place to live was hard.
Ironically, there were hundreds of options to choose from, but I was looking for something that would be close to urban life yet be far enough to avoid the hustle and bustle. I was looking for a place that would be well connected yet avoids the traffic rush that Bangalore is famously known for. I tried a number of property agents and social associations and finally managed to find a lovely house that met my taste and preferences.

Fast forward to the next step of trying to get the house furnished. This, as you can imagine, can be more expensive than even finding and renting a house. I wasn’t keen on purchasing a lot of furniture that would later be hard to get rid of and make it an investment that just depreciates rapidly with time. That is when I came across RentoMojo.

They have this unique concept of rent packages that just take care of each room in your house, based on your taste, needs, and budget. This just worked out perfectly for me as being a Blogger, I am always on the lookout for great looking places that I can use as my prop or background. The fact that I could change my home décor frequently just came as a boon as that would just allow me to create fresh looking ambiance within my house every few months.

Surprisingly, it was also very light on the pocket as RentoMojo offers all of these services at a very small monthly rent and a one-time deposit that does not leave a hole in your pocket. I was able to leverage the flexibilities that RentoMojo offers to rejuvenate my living space a few times, and it has lent a great deal to my social profile and added the oomph to my overall portfolio.

What RentoMojo also offers is an amazing option to own a piece of furniture if you really like, and I am considering keeping the couch that I am in love with for a small purchase fee.

Apart from furniture and home décor, it has been an amazing experience overall with RentoMojo, as I have also opted in for my daily need appliances from them that include an air conditioner, TV, and microwave. Again, for a small fee per month, I get to use them at my leisure.

This is a real boon in the modern times. Considering big cities like Bangalore, where a job change could take you from one end of the city to another where moving your own furniture through the movers and packers would cost a bomb. Add to that the insurance costs and the damages that invariably happen through the move.

Similarly, moving from one city to another could just leave you seething looking at the estimates that movers and packers would give you. Just not worth it in my view. For a fraction of that money and the financial comfort of being able to pay on a monthly basis, without having to shell out a lot of money in one go, is just a perfect pocket-friendly and practical option.

Moreover, for someone like me who is creative, I just love that fact that I can mix and match and get new looks for my home when I need, without having to do spend a lot of money or time. Check out their Bangalore packages here.

Sometimes we forget how much money we just casually spend in one movie outing or over a Saturday evening party which is easily a couple of thousands! To put in this perspective, RentoMojo comes in at such an affordable price that it is almost hard to believe. Can you believe you can actually rent a single bed with wheels for a monthly rent of under Rs. 300? That is like a tub of popcorn at a movie theater!

Ever since I made this decision of renting my furniture and appliances through RentoMojo, my bank balance is looking much healthier, and the living costs have become more predictable. On top of that, I have been able to spend the money I have saved by choosing RentoMojo for doing the things that I love.
