Copy-paste script (data-backed)

Hi · I checked Gharpayy Insights for 2 BHK in Cooke Town. The median across 27 verified rents is ₹35,000; bottom-quartile is ₹25,000. For example, a similar flat at ₹31,000 and a similar flat at ₹32,000. Your ask is ₹35,000. I can commit ₹30,000 on a 12-month lock with auto-debit and no late payments. Deal?
