Hello, Everyone

Hello, my name is Cynthia from the USA and I am wanting to move to Hyderabad. I am looking for someone to help me get acquainted with a proper neighborhood in which to live.聽 I am an online student that figures that since I can live anywhere and study, it might as well be India, right?

I have been told that I should find housing around the American Embassy and I am having difficulty in knowing how I go about finding a suitable apartment.聽 My income is limited, but I have been told that it is enough to find a relatively nice apartment.

Does anyone have suggestions for me?聽 Would anyone like to make a buddy and answer questions for me?聽 I have lived abroad before and know that sometimes real estate workers are quite expensive and will find apartments that are way over priced for the market. And of course I will be wanting to avoid this at all cost.

I will appreciate any help in this matter.聽 Thanks so much.

Hi Cynthia,

From what I gather, the US consulate is found in Begumpet, Secunderabad which is the main part of the city with people who don't always understand/speak english.

More expat friendly would be Banjara Hills or Jubilee Hills. However, if you are up for the Hyderabadi cultural immersion, with the crazy traffic, go for Begumpet.

Hello Cynthia,

Welcome to Hyderabad.. in case you have already landed in the city of Pearls. Now, coming directly to the point and your requirement, Cookie was right up to some extent in regards to the area of The US Embassy. I would suggest you to stay in Begumpet, Banjara Hills ,Ameerpet and Jubilee Hills these are the nearest areas to the Begumpet Embassy. But if staying near the embassy is not at all a constraint then it that case you have infinite number of decent areas with nice facilities and not much expensive rents.

So i can help you in this if you have not yet found a place in Hyderabad to stay in.. as i have been here in Hyderabad by birth ;-)

In fact not only with finding you a suitable and secured place to live in but also anything you need assistance with.

Did you find this very very lengthy post interesting or useful ?? then reply me :-)

Cheers !

you have mentioned that you have a limited income,so i dont suggest you to stay in jubilee hills or ameerpet or begumpet.they are costly. I suggest you stay in and around tarnaka. You can find many expats living in tarnaka as many foreigners studyin EFL university near by which is very famous..

Hello Cynthia,

You must be amazed at how responsive people have been but I strongly recommend that you do not take up offers from just anyone.
I own a real estate company which deals primarily with expats. I, on behalf of my company, would be able to advise you on the ideal location and the best value for money based on your budget. It is always best to seek assistance from someone in a professional capacity. I assure you that the fees will not be too expensive and that we can find the most suitable accommodation for you, probably even with an expat room mate ! We can also have everything arranged for you so that you have somewhere to move into upon arrival.

Please contact me on kalyan.charan (at) classic living. in with more details. I assure you excellent & professional service for an affordable commission.

Hi Cynthia,
US Embassy is located in Begumpet and you can find economical accommodation聽 near Begumpet railway station, however my suggestion for you will be SR/Ameerpet were most of the non-local students stay and their are plenty of Girls hostel's.聽 You can find a shared or single accommodation in this hostel's in between 3000-6000Rs. Begumpet is 10-20Minutes(if you consider local transport) distance from this location and their are plenty of local buses which won't charge you more than 10Rs.聽 Another location I will suggest for you is Santhnagar or Fathenagar, from here you can board a local train for going to Begumpet which is the next stop and will not cost you more than 8Rs to travel.
If you need any more help on anything else you can email me at mdfaiyaz@hotmail.com
Regards,
Faiyaz

Hi,
聽聽聽 Accommodation mainly depends on your lifestyle. I mean some people like sunshine in their rooms, while some prefer it to be gloomy. Anyway I stay near the American Consulate and if in case you need further help for accommodation, please free to contact me via my expat inbox. Can surely figure out a way and good place for your living here in Hyderabad.

cheers,
Baluzzz
