Pravin Darekar Praises Havare Properties' Dr Suresh Havare For Providing Affordable Homes To 45,000 Customers, Especially Marathi Families

Mumbai's BJP group leader and Maharashtra Self-Redevelopment Authority chairman, Pravin Darekar, recently commended Havare Properties chairman Dr Suresh Havare for his efforts in providing affordable housing to middle class families, particularly Marathi families, stating that Dr Havare's dedication to ensuring homes for millions of Marathi people is a key to his success. This praise came during the groundbreaking ceremony of the 'Intelligentia Apex' project being built by Havare Properties in Tilak Nagar, Chembur.

Former MLA Suryakant Dalvi, corporator Sushma Sawant, Dr Suresh Havare, and various office-bearers and members of the housing society attended the event. Darekar highlighted Dr Havare's commitment to building affordable homes on a large scale, even when he first entered the construction sector with little backing. He noted that contrary to most developers who primarily focus on profit-maximising towers, Dr Havare's approach was driven by the goal of providing quality homes, especially to middle-class families, with a particular emphasis on Marathi people.

Darekar appreciated Havare Properties' efforts to maintain direct communication with housing society members, address their issues, and coordinate solutions. He emphasized the importance of self-redevelopment in Mumbai, pointing out that thousands of buildings were in a dilapidated state. To prevent Marathi families from being forced to leave the city, he urged the Chief Minister to promote self-redevelopment, under which housing societies can undertake redevelopment with financial assistance from the Mumbai District Central Cooperative Bank and various state government incentives.

Darekar stated that Havare Properties had provided homes to around 45,000 customers, a number far fewer than other developers who have undertaken such extensive work for the middle class. He concluded by stating that developers committed to affordable housing deserved support and appreciation, even if their profit margins were relatively low.
