Verma, I agree with your claim but your 1st mistake is blaming all south indians in general. You may be highly qualified or well educated & well placed but you lack in simple decency. Being an Indian, you know that south india means Kerala, Karnataka, Andhra & Tamilnadu all put to gether. Then how dare are you to generalise in a common forum where varieties of natioanlities are existing and you are sending a wrong signal to all of them. Then comes, why dont you meet the house owners direct and why you go thro brokers ? You want to save money, then you find cheap treatment / accomodation in society. As said, as far as house rents, nothing gone wrong, things are right path and thats accepted fact in doha. Choice is yours (buyers) not others (sellers) Good luck,take care.
