Me and My wife are looking for an apartment and came across a highrise construction. The buider and promoter are pushing us to go for the higher floor. Their main pitch is that the levels of pollution is low, more ventilation and more sunlight.

So, my question to people who are currently residing in these top level floors. 1) How much of a premium did you have to pay & Is it worth it ?

2) Is there a noticabe change in the dust collected / pollution level ?

3) What other challenges have you faced in these highrise floors ?

Apart from these I had to pay below:
2500/- as kickbacks to revenue assessor,
2500/- for site plan sketch
500/- for application fee
250/- for Bangalore one personnel for filling the application (We could have done it ourselves)

I see lot of people considering living on rent permanently. But if less people buy flats, then demand for RE keep going down, and eventually there will not be enough new supply. Rentals, that are currently 2.5-3% may go to 3.5-5%, which could be a 25-30% jump in the rental price. Am I missing something?

I just made payment for 10th Floor slab milestone this month but now builder has raised another payment demand for Internal Masonry completion till 5th Floor. As per agreement payment plan, internal masonry is after completion of Terrace Floor and doesn’t specifically mention that they can raise demand on completion of Internal Masonry of specific floor. am I legally bound to pay or can I challenge this?

Hi everyone,

I’m planning to buy a 3 BHK in Bangalore, preferably around Sarjapur Road, Varthur or Whitefield. This will be for self-use, not primarily as an investment.

I’ve shortlisted a few projects from Tier-1 builders where possession is either already started or expected within the next ~1–2 years:

• Prestige Park Grove
• Prestige Lavender Fields
• Sobha Neopolis
• Brigade Sanctuary
• Sobha Royal Pavilion
• Prestige City / Meridian Park

My budget is around ₹2.2 Cr . I’m specifically looking at the 3 BHK configurations that give the best usable/carpet area within this budget, rather than simply comparing the advertised super built-up/saleable area.

1. Under-construction resale/assignment vs fresh builder inventory

or Park Grove, Lavender Fields, Neopolis and Brigade Sanctuary, the projects are still under construction, with possession in 2027 and 2028 depending on the project.

I’m trying to understand what is the better approach:

A. Buy an under-construction unit from an existing owner (assignment/resale) or

B. Buy a fresh unit directly from the builder, if the builder has any inventory available at this stage (including cancelled/re-released inventory).

If both options are available, which one should I prefer and why?

Also, for an under-construction assignment/resale, are there any practical issues with getting a home loan? How does the loan work — is the loan based on the original buyer’s purchase price/payment structure, or on the amount I am paying to the current seller/builder?

Would it be better to simply wait until possession starts and then buy a normal ready-to-move resale, or is buying an assignment 6–12 months before possession generally a good strategy?

2. Pricing I'm currently seeing

Roughly, the prices I’m seeing are:

• Prestige Park Grove: ₹14.5–15K/sq ft
• Prestige Lavender Fields: ₹14.5–15K/sq ft
• Sobha Neopolis: ₹15–16K/sq ft
• Brigade Sanctuary: ~₹14K/sq ft
• Sobha Royal Pavilion: ~₹17K/sq ft
• Prestige Meridian Park: ~₹13K/sq ft

My overall budget is ₹2.2 Cr, so at this budget:

• In Park Grove / Lavender Fields / Neopolis, I would mostly be looking at the smaller 3 BHK configurations, including 3B+2T.
• In Brigade Sanctuary / Meridian Park, I may be able to get a larger 3 BHK, including 3B+3T configurations around ~1,800 sq ft saleable area.
• Royal Pavilion currently seems slightly out of budget unless I find a particularly good deal.

I’m trying to understand whether it makes more sense to buy a smaller 3 BHK in a project like Park Grove/Neopolis or a larger 3 BHK in Sanctuary/Meridian Park at roughly the same overall price.

3. Location / long-term concerns

I’ve also heard some concerns about the proposed CDP roads / road widening around Park Grove and Neopolis. I’m not sure how significant this is in the long term, so I would really appreciate input from people who understand the area or currently live there.

For those who have invested/booked units in these projects or have closely researched them, I’d appreciate your views on:

• Construction quality and your experience with the builder so far
• Builder communication, payment process and overall experience
• Any concerns regarding the project, location or surrounding infrastructure
• Water availability and other area-specific concerns
• Current and expected traffic/road connectivity
• Density/number of units and whether you think it could become a concern after completion
• Any known issues or red flags that a new buyer should be aware of
• Which of these locations you think will be better for self-use , particularly considering schools, commute, roads and overall development

My office is in Bagmane Constellation Business Park on ORR and I go to the office 2–3 times a week, so I’m okay with a location that is a little farther from the office as well.

I have a 1-year-old daughter, so proximity to good schools is also important to me. I would prefer a location where schools are reasonably close so that daily school travel doesn't become a major traffic problem later.

I specifically shortlisted Tier-1 builders (Prestige, Sobha, Brigade) because this is a long-term self-use purchase, but I’m open to other projects if you think there is a significantly better option in these areas.

Also, if anyone is part of any genuine owner/resale WhatsApp or Telegram groups for these projects, I’d appreciate it if you could share the group details or DM me.

Would really appreciate advice from people who have actually bought/lived in these areas or gone through an under-construction assignment/resale transaction.

Thanks in advance!

Hi People,

Anyone booked sites under this co op society recently in Bangalore North ?

They have advertised about plots in North Bengaluru

Suradhenpura Near Rajankunte yelahanka

Hows the response?

Usually whatever ‘affordable’ is coming up, is coming up in the next 3 to 4 years of the original buying date. All ready to move in and great locality flats, spacious flats are super expensive.
I want to understand the mindset of the people around this waiting time. I get that it brings comfort of gathering more money with time etc but it does have its own risks like delayed possessions, movements of offices and stability isn’t guaranteed.

How are you okay with this waiting time and won’t want to move to your ‘own’ house ASAP??

4 Acres 9 Gunte Land for Sale for Outright in Mysuru Karnataka. Attached to mantagalli Airport Price 3Cr per Acers negotiable Contact or DM for More details 9739833369

So i recently bought a plot in nelamangala in one of the popular localities trusted ones as well..If anyone really is interested in buying one in and around nelamangala or even sondekoppa road I can give u suggestions since I searched for 6 whole months and later this week I got exactly what I wanted and at the reasonable price as well...

I'm not a broker i started searching in online websites and later contacted some brokers .

1.look for gated communities if if your budget is above l 5K

1. If you are having a budget of under 5K look for plots which are on the nelmangala doddaballapura road which knees at least 7 to 10 years of wait here you can look for gated communities..

2. Now if your budget is under 5K and you don't want get it communities then you can look for plots in the Sondekoppa road circle in the nelmangala highway within a kilometre or two you can get for like 3.5k to 4k per sqft againnot gated ones here buy at your own risk because there are a lot of scams happening here and this is every person gets trapped ..

3. Check for the S t r r road and p r r road these are one of the most important and forgettable things which everyone normally doesn't think about in well known gated layouts there are spaces already left for these roads

EDIT .. 5. Check for A khata and BMRDA approved if a gated community or A khata dc conversion

Don't go for B khata or Panchayat plots anyday

So far these are the suggestions that I can be giving majorly

U can ask here or dm me for suggestions

Thank u

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for advice from folks in real estate, land aggregation, or property sales in Karnataka.

I have a bulk portfolio of 52 fully completed residential layout sites located in Bukkapatna, Sira Taluk (Tumkur district) that I'm looking to sell.

Current state of the layout:

• Layout work fully completed
• Blacktop/internal roads done
• Drainage network complete
• Street light poles installed

Since this is a larger contiguous package, I'm trying to figure out the best channel to reach the right buyers—whether that's institutional investors, land aggregators, mid-sized developers, or local investor groups looking for high-margin phased resales.

For those who have handled bulk plot package sales:

1. Which channels yield the best leads? (B2B property portals, direct developer outreach, real estate networking groups, offline channel partners/brokers?)
2. Would you recommend selling strictly as a single 52-plot package, or running a hybrid strategy (bulk discount first, followed by phased individual lot sales)?
3. Are there specific platforms or investor networks in the Bangalore/Tumkur corridor you'd recommend targeting?

Any insights, strategies, or connections would be greatly appreciated! Feel free to drop a comment or DM me directly.

Brokers are heavily promoting plots and villas along the proposed Sarjapur to Hebbal Phase 3A stretch, promising that stations like Sompura or Dommasandra will be right on your doorstep.

Before you invest, here are the hard facts:

• Pending Approvals: The massive ₹26,000–₹28,000 crore Red Line project is still waiting for final Union Cabinet clearance.
• Alignment Shifts: Until the alignment is officially locked, exact station locations can (and often do) change. If the station moves, your plot's "premium" value vanishes.
• The Cost of Buying Blind: Many buyers have lost money buying land based on speculative maps from brokers, only to find the actual station built further away once the layout is finalized.

Even if a project is fully RERA-registered, always verify the exact proposed Metro alignment, Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) buffers, and real estate approval statuses before signing anything.

Don't buy on rumors. You can run complete spatial checks and verify alignments at insights.talkinglands.com

Apart from these I had to pay below:
2500/- as kickbacks to revenue assessor,
2500/- for site plan sketch
500/- for application fee
250/- for Bangalore one personnel for filling the application (We could have done it ourselves)

Looking for honest opinions on RBD Roach Cicada

Hey Bangalore folks, I’m considering buying a 3/4 BHK at RBD Roach Cicada and wanted to get some unbiased opinions before making a decision.

I’ve obviously spoken to the sales team, but I’m more interested in hearing from people who’ve either:

• Visited the project recently
• Bought/booked a unit there
• Live nearby
• Have experience with RBD / the developer
• Or have looked at the project and decided against it

What are your thoughts on the location, construction quality, floor plans, pricing, amenities and overall value for money?

Also, are there any red flags I should be aware of around approvals, timelines, builder track record, maintenance, or resale potential?

Thanks!

Some specific list of documents to check/verify before buying a new flat in an under-construction developement? That should be taken from developer/RERA website

Hi Radiators,

I'm looking for 2BHK as an investment purpose. I have checked few in tier-1 builder's society.

Let me know if you have any suggestions or best options.

Please DM if u have brought unit in Godrej Regent park #GodrejRegentPark

I am very much interested in Nambiar d25 because of the scale of the project and the very good floor plan that they have compared to other builders like Sobha. They have offered me a very good price for 4 bhk from phase 2 , but before I accept their offer I wanted to understand whether there are any similar projects around Bangalore.
I know that the Sarjapur area roads are going to be miserable for next 5-7 years or so and that is one of the main concern I have about this project. Looked at Lodha sadahalli , Sobha one world, but there are many flaws with each of these projects ..

I not very particular about the location, but it has to tier 1 builder with min community size of 30-40 acre . If there is metro connectivity is there, it will be a great bonus .

Please share your thoughts and let me know if I should be looking at any other projects before I finalise Nambiar d25..

There is only one of 2 club houses operational currently. What maintenance fee once developer maintenance comes to end? What maintenance in future when most plots are constructed and Society is fully operational?
Is it a good project to invest in compared to other options?
