A major consideration while selecting a home and home value is how safe the locality where the person is residing. In some posh areas, homes are under intense surveillance making it difficult for anyone to enter the area without being monitored. However intelligence agencies in some areas are allowed to enter homes using duplicate keys without a court order or informing the home owner in advance. So if these officials dislike the home owner due to personal reasons like jealousy, casteism and greed, they can abuse their power for their personal gains.
While a person who does not have a posh home is unlikely to have anything much of value in the home, people with expensive gadgets and valuables are more likely to be targetted for theft. In other case, a person may be targetted for vandalism . So people are more likely to leave areas where theft and vandalism will be reported, and the home rates will decline accordingly.
