The Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister, Mr N. Kiran Kumar Reddy, today said this is a good time to buy real estate in Hyderabad as prices are reasonable and affordable for the middle class.

Speaking after inaugurating the Andhra Pradesh Real Estate Developers Association (APREDA) property show here today, Mr Reddy said bandhs and strikes have affected several sectors in the State, including real estate and IT. But people are coming out of this issue.
