Questions About Basic Amenities

The resident further stated that many flats lack basic amenities like usable balconies and designated parking spaces, leading to tenants' difficulties.

The resident clarified that his expectations are not high and he only wants a simple 1BHK with a small balcony and parking. However, such options are either scarce or very expensive.
The resident also questioned whether people are actually able to find such flats or if most people are having to compromise on either a balcony or parking.
