Atharva Group

We are located on the ground floor of Vimal Apartment, right in the Kombaali area. Dapoli is a nice place to be, especially when the weather isn't too hot and humid. Our office is in Flat 103, so it feels more like a home than a regular business place. We have a few plastic chairs for visitors and a big wooden table where we spread out the maps and building plans. Working in Ratnagiri means things move a bit slower than in the big cities like Mumbai, which is fine by us. We spend a lot of time on our motorbikes going out to see different plots of land or checking on how things are looking at various sites. The monsoon season here is something else entirely. Everything turns very green and beautiful, but the heavy rain can make it hard to get any outdoor work done for weeks at a time. We just sit inside and drink a lot of tea and wait for the clouds to clear. Neighbors stop by to talk about the local news or the upcoming mango season. It’s a small community and everyone knows everyone else’s business. We try to keep our paperwork organized in metal cupboards, but sometimes the humidity makes the pages curl up at the edges. It’s just how it is living near the coast. We’ve been part of this neighborhood for a while. Most people know where the apartment building is located near the main road and we just keep the door open.
