Home is not just a house of brick and mortar, but the dream of several of finding their place of peace and solitude. Urban life is very fast-paced and demands any working professional to perform at their peak, in return for some security and money for livelihood. Amidst this monotony, people try building their life and several start from fulfilling a goal of owning a place for themselves. Business Outreach collaborates with Santhosh Reddy, who founded SHR Homes with the aim to provide high-quality residential construction to its diverse clientele.
Interestingly, Santhosh Reddy studied a Bachelors of Technology and comes from the entire different sector of engineering. He was comfortable enough in his cushy tech job, earning high figures and building a beautiful life for himself. But what struck him deeply was when his friends, family relatives or acquaintances were fed up with low quality residential construction by local builders. Santhosh identified that in spite of spending a premium, these builders were resorting to low-quality construction materials and handing over the project way past the deadlines in an agreement period.
As an expert in his field, Santhosh Reddy has always been a stickler of design, planning and precise execution. So he decided to transition into the ultra-competitive and labor-intensive sector of real estate by providing top-tier construction services for any apartment, house or commercial spaces. Santhosh opens up about the fact that the real estate industry and its demand for patience, resilience and strategic decision-making made him the phenomenal entrepreneur he is today.
Moving forward, Santhosh Reddy also studied a Bachelors of Law, where he grasped the knowledge of compliance, contracts and property law, which are the pivotal aspects in real estate. Most importantly, SHR Homes, under the leadership of Santhosh Reddy, completed more than 1,00,000 square feet of residential construction. And in the next five years, with the outstanding dedication of Santhosh Reddy, they are looking forward to completing about 500,000 square feet of residential projects in the next 3 to 5 years. Furthermore, SHR Homes are advocates of sustainability and Santhosh Reddy has been strategizing to work with eco-friendly materials in the projects to abide by any evolving regulations and respecting the climate concern crisis.
Santhosh’s journey has been nothing short of exceptional, where from being a Computer Science expert, he came out of his comfort zone and entered the intense real estate construction industry. He is a torch-bearer of innovation, respecting client-developer agreement necessities and has been integrating technology into the operational system of SHR Homes. Santhosh Reddy reflects on the early days—visiting construction sites with a helmet in one hand and a notepad in the other, learning from masons, managing labor schedules myself, and personally sourcing materials from local vendors. It wasn’t easy, but every foundation we laid came with an evergreen impact on the entrepreneurial ecosystem. Recently, SHR Home was recognised by Startup India for their unparalleled commitment to the real estate construction industry. As the Founder & Managing Director of SHR Homes, Santhosh Reddy has made significant strides in the residential construction sector. Santhosh’s grounded nature was always rooted from his perspective to provide the best value to the customers, as homes to them is something more priceless than just a project. And as a bootstrapped company, SHR Homes are looking towards expanding to Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. And this success for SHR Home owes it to the far-sightedness of Santhosh Reddy, providing high-quality materials in the projects and his keen eye-for-detail to create an expert team. Something that always inspires Santhosh Reddy comes from the saying, “Dream big. Start small. Act now.”
