Until the late 1980s, Whitefield was a small village. But now, it has become one of the major IT hubs in Bangalore. Whitefield has been included into BBMP (Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike). And so, now Whitefield is officially a part of Bangalore.

Many people prefer to buy apartments in Whitefield since it is very much closer to ITPB (International Tech Park, Bangalore), EPIP (Export Promotion Industrial Park) and some IT Companies. EPIP is one of the first Information Technology Parks in India.

If you are prepared to make a deal with the homeowners, to get a lease option, then you can get in below contract and focus on flipping the home. If you're new to a location, you may want to retain the services of a real estate agent that will help you sell the home but if you know the region, just advertise the home and ask around.
