6. Its already August ,Any body got their flat or called for inspection? Are the facilities done? I was expecting them to give possession much after their claim of construction going very fast till they had to collect the money, Now want to see actually,its possession time . In my previous communication with CRM I was been told thought the construction is going very fast the possession would be in August and it will take 1.5 years to complete the 30% is because
   1) They will start filling for the OC only in august and they cant give possession before that
   2) It will take some time for facility to get ready and for furnishing.

   Pratibha promised to give me flat for furnishing in April May time frame as I mentioned below. Its already August ,So I think now it should be all ready for possession.

   Mr CRM ,MR Builder Could you please update when all blocks will be ready , when all facilities would be ready , why there is delay when you construction was so fast ?

7. Hello, since the possession date is close, we checked about interiors. We were told that they (the builder) can also get the woodwork done. How good is it to get interiors done through the builder?

    1. Hi all,
       I am planning to book a 3BHK here. Builder is quoting price of 4850 + floor rise of 25 and 100 extra for pool facing.
       Is there scope for price negotiations ?
       Has anyone checked whether builder is offering the same quality of fittings as in his other projects ?
       Are the parking slots of a good size ? I was told that parking for blocks A, B, C are at -1 level while the rest of the blocks have -1 and -2 both.
       Finally, last year was there any discount/offer for bookings around Dussehra and Diwali ?
       Thanks.

    2. Hi I am also planning to go for a 2 BHK and would like to understand if there will be any room for negotiation. Also i saw a grave yard right in front of the building and not sure if there was a grave yard in the area where the building is constructed. Anybody can throw a light on this?

    3. There is a small not so prominent graveyard which is used for burial & this would be wiped off soon or later as i saw a well laid out park before that & we were aware of this when we bought in 2014. This is not a major hindrance at least for me when project delivery is on schedule.

    4. Agree, but graveyard should go asap as, it may cause of scores of deceases specifically for children.
       Thanks

    5. There is a small not so prominent graveyard used for burial & this would be wiped soon or later as i saw a well laid park & we were aware of this when we bought in 2014. This is not a major hindrance at least for me when project delivery is on schedule & moreover this is on the main raod.

    6. When I spoke to Pratibha, she said building area was never a graveyard area. I think she is right because the graveyard will be government land ??

    7. I was there last Sunday, I double checked to find a Park with walk track, adjoining Laurel heights. Any commitment on Possession from Salarpuria ! Seems they should give it on time.!

11. Recently i bought a 2 bhk flat in laurel height.

    1. value for money, go for it.
       I own a 2bhk here

15. Hi, I feel the staff’s of Salarpuria are very friendly and their dealing with clients is good.

    With regard to the construction phase, it’s going on as per the spped required, I Am sure we will get the allotments as per their specified time.

    With regard to quality of construction, on my last site visit I saw they are using high quality of cements and other materials, they are not compromising with quality.

    They have also dropped the plan for D&E block due to non-approval and now more space are available for greenery.

    The price is also going high as the development on tumkur road with other project are high, also because of the operation of metro rail which is hardly 1.5 km from our flat is adding value to our property.

    Moreover anyone can visit the site with perior information so that their construction work should not get effect and at the same time the safety of the clients can be taken care.

    You can contact Ms. Pratibha she is good in dealing with new or existing customers.

    Ocerall I feel investing with Salarpuria is worth, even people who blocked their flats at Brigade Panorma are effect due to delay in their project construction and they hide the issue of big runnel with their investor customers.

    Atleast we are in safe hands and our investment is on safe n good project.

    We should be happy and feel positive for this.

    1. This time I went to Salarpuria laurel Heights and met Mrs. Pratibha, She took us ( me and my wife ) around the project, I appreciate the way pratibah handled my queries and also showed me the internal work , The pluming plastering work is done , Expect the same response from other representatives also , Overall on positive note , though the promises on the payment terms have not been met , still its look ok on the progress front, Hope to get the flat for furnishing around April- Amy 2017

17. They use to update the status before 5th of every month, as they have collected 80% of the money, now not bothered?

    Sign in with Google to reply

    1. They updated the status yesterday on request and u can see the progress in 2 months , compare to the progress when they had to raise the demands , How all of sudden the pace slowed down no clue also from quality prospective , I am not sure how somebody can ensure the quality without help of structural engineer as we don’t know the strength of block used , plastering thickness , column strength , ration in massionary work etc. I mean as a lay man we can comment only when we see the finish product.

    2. One more good news the CRM has changed for the third time in 1.5 years and nobody is taking responsibility of the promises made by previous CRM :)

18. I am happy with the construction progress till now. Please continue the same pace.

    Sign in with Google to reply

    1. Hi Nagaraj, could you please update the progress in last one month , On their site the last update is of March

19. I just visited the project yesterday ,From outside its the same status as 2 weeks before , any one has any updates? On their websites the last update is of March 2016, Can we all ask to update the progress on regular basis so we can see where its going ? If its going :)

20. tell me the date of possession, they have taken 80% amount, when they when hand over

21. Pawan you seem like a fake id created by Salarpuria. Information which you have provided seems to be distracting the conversation thread which is ongoing.

    Sign in with Google to reply

    1. Dear If u r thinking that i am having fake id, then If I will tell my flat no. then u will purchase my flat in current rate. ok

    2. Its not the point who is fake and who is not , Its very clear Salarpuria is a 3rd grade builder will very low quality and no moral values or honesty , trying to cheat there customer at all fronts. If they are not worried about the future of multiple projects and looting there customer, Why I should not expose them just because it may reduce the price of my flat in market , Come on … we need to expose these guys , request you all to go to social media and expose , that’s how once they will feel the pinch may be they will stop this practice or may deliver good quality. Otherwise this is a easy money for them and if we will not protest or complain just because it will reduce the market value of our flats , these guys will keep on cheating.

       We already know that they delivered very low quality work in greenage that means they are not worried about their brand name , How will u ensure that laurel heights quality will not be bad? Once cheated always cheated and they will cheat because they are making huge profit.

22. Plz tell me future aspects of this laurel heights project. What are the upcoming Infrastructure near this project. Whether to stay in this project or better to sell it, plz guide. Is there any more appreciation in this project ………..

23. good news is that they are telling that possession will be in July 2017. so plz cheer up

    Sign in with Google to reply

    1. Earlier someone told march 2017 now July 2017 , So though there construction rate i so fast stilll the possession date only moved in by a month that also they are still saying not confirmed, Big cheaters shameless guys , just fooling people and cheating

24. I agree with SCJ, we may only be doing ourselves a disservice as this doesn’t have any legal standing. We signed up for a construction linked payment plan didn’t we? While the fast payments are an inconvenience, I have seen few projects that have risen as quickly as this one. I have been staying in this area for around 5 years now and have seen the adjacent GM Daffodils getting built and still not completed despite having begun almost 4-5 years ago. Their customers are likely happy if the payment was construction linked, but they have been waiting almost endlessly for possession. I am not saying possession of laurel heights would be any faster, but there is reason to feel optimistic looking at the construction status..See once we agreed to pay per speed of construction, we should have known we run the risk of having to pay faster than we’ll like to – just as there is a risk of having to pay a lot slower than we would have liked to.

    1. Hi Praveen, You have all the rights to agree and its my individual opinion Being optimist is very good its keep you happy but If I am seeing some body is cheating and I am not raising my voice, this I don’t think is optimism. I feel knowing that u r getting cheated and sitting quite is also not good. I feel if I am able to make any difference in there total sale or make more people aware, I get a feeling of satisfaction as if they will loose something than only they will give a second thought on these practices.

       1) If the construction is fast why the possession date is not moving in ? I mean how you justify that.
       2) Initial estimate was 2.5 years with each stage in 3 months and 1 demand at each stage, We already paid 9 instalment which mean 9*3 =27 months of work is done , If its a real construction based payment , so 29 -27 = 2 months work left , Is it true?
       3) Why should I worry if others are (Dafodill) is getting delayed , I mean why should I take reference of such project , just to justify that what ever builder has promised and not delivering is right? I am worried as I will be loosing 5 Lakh as interest and builder is happy because he is making 200*5 = 10 crore unaccountable money.
       4) In same line if we see quality issue ( similar thing has been seen in greenage ), we can still justify that saying in many of the projects in Bangalore or in India there is a quality issue :) just a thought.

    2. Ajay – you’re entitled to your opinion (btw, I also think that the builder is a cheat – but he can cheat us in so many ways, that rapid pace of demands is probably a less severe case of cheating – for example, compare the quality of lifts in Greenage phase-1 and Greenage phase-2 and you will know what I m talking about). You’re also entitled do what you wish, but in my humble opinion, its not worth creating a big publicity over the rapid pace of demands (even if it is morally and in principle wrong on that part of builder to do so). First, you’ll scare away prospective buyers which, in turn, will depreciate the property much more than 5 lakhs! Second, all others builders do the same thing, but unless all buyers also criticize their builders publicly the same way, it will give an impression that Salarpuria is worse than others (which i doubt is the case – i think they are equally bad, may be a slight difference here and there). In fact some are even worse (like Mantri – their project Lithos takes much more money right upfront .. so they key is to take a look at how much money the builder leaves for posession, etc – creating the structure is always the fastest task, most delays happen after that.

25. plz tell about the future aspect of this project and the builder? , I am thinking to sell this flat because they are taking money only and not maintaining the quality of the project. plz suggest they told not to sell the before 18 months because they will take 80% amount, any body interest in 2BHK size 992 Sq fit, plz tell

    1. We already got cheated so no other go, But you can at least make others aware so that they will not fall in the prey , Go and provide your feedback on your experience in social media, like mouthshut and all.

26. I now consider them as class D buider because of there behavour and customer support

27. hi

28. I understand your concern. The demands are coming at this pace none of us had anticipated. But we have signed the agreement. And it is the construction linked payment terms. They are showing the progress and asking the demand. And as TM suggested above it is our home which is getting build there. And so all reasons to be optimistic. The builder can have the argument that they will stall the progress and ask for no further demands. We will be the one who will suffer then. Even if they delay the project, the compensation is peanuts as mentioned in the agreement. Hope we don’t end up in that situation.I agree on your arguments on the moral grounds, but I don’t think we have any legal stand here. I suggest you also not to be so pessimistic and hope for the best. It’s our home. Hope the builder agrees to our request on the moral grounds.

29. This is what happens in most project. ie the reason they have stated slab and roof as completion status. There are numerous projects which have collected the money and being delayed for more than a year. I think we should feel lucky that the project is getting completed on time in this aspect. It would still need more than a year to finish all the work. We should definitely ensure that the quality is not compromised though.

    Sign in with Google to reply

    1. HI SCJ, I am very happy to see your optimist approach but as we, the consumer think that this is how it happens, that’s why the builders are taking us for granted , I mean what happens to others why I am bothered, I am bothered when I am getting cheated and I am paying for it. The builders are already making money on our money as they are already collecting the money they invested initially during booking time and then they ask at every stage of the project and make profit. On top of that and then they do all this cheating to get money from us and then put it in other projects. I want to make sure I am not getting cheated. I am sure if there CRM would have told these payment terms in the beginning than most of us would not have booked it because the end cost would be around 150 /- more per square feet and in this slow market , We would have got even better options in that price and that also ready to move in.

       If we are not bothered if the builder is cheating this way and say this is how it happens than from the past history, Sattva greenage , they have the history of delivering low quality ,and most of the builders now use low quality material to make profit, then How we will question them. If they are cheating once and they don’t have any morality, they will cheat in quality in possession date everywhere as they are making money out of it, As a consumer we have the responsibility to at least speak out where we feel we are getting cheated.

    2. Hi, SCJ
       I have booked a flat in G block, last week i visited the site and the flat along with few of my friends, i felt the construction quality is good. as the owners of the project if we put the project down we will be in trouble in reselling the flat. I think Mr. Ajay should visit the site and check the construction quality instead of making wrong statements.

    3. Hi Mr Gupta..

       I have never claimed that laurel heights quality is bad , Please see the comments before pointing out here are the points I mentioned

       1) Mr Shekhar told that he is using just 15% of money for rest of the work other than frame work and that’s why they are asking 85% money just for framework., so only around 7 Lakhs for every thing other than framework, which raises a doubt on quality and I think you will also agree when 7 lakhs is not sufficient even for wood work , how they can complete every thing in 7 lakhs with very high quality

       2) My other question is there demands , which u will also agree is not at the rate they promised.

       I just gave and examples of there already existing projects for quality and if you want I can submit proofs for that .

       I would be more than happy if I am getting a high quality product on time, but when I am seeing issue of in their earlier commitments , I doubt there any commitment.

    4. I agree with you Ajay ji, but even i had bad opinion about the quality when i visited.they showed me my Unit even internal/external plastering was completed. there executive said it is likely to be handover much before than the actual date(i.e. 2017 aug), Hopefully we get the possession at the earliest. I feel they should have collected some where around 70-75% amount by now, but they have collected 85% apart from that i am happy the way the blocks have come up.

    If we just take it for granted that the builders will do Like this and we just have to bear the injustice , It will never change , I am not sure if whatever we are doing will have any impact but I want to make sure that I have put all my efforts to fight the injustice from my side atleast.

32. Hello everyone, can we have a social media protest first i.e. highlighting the problem on facebook etc where it can be widely shared ? Protesting outside their offices/sites will have a limited impact and it’s pretty resource intensive as well. It’s much easier to create a FB page with the details and then asking everyone to keep sharing with their friends.

    Sign in with Google to reply

    1. Hello
       Can anyone Pls share facebook page details House owners of this project,
       Request all to join the page

    2. In a slowing economy with very limited apetite for new houses, do you really want to do this ? At best you can save 4-5 lakhs on interest costs (if the demands did not come that fast), but scaring away prospective buyers will just hurt our own interests (you’re unlikely to sell or people willing to buy will negotiate harder for lower rates).. All negative publicity about the project (and right now its just about payment demands – nothing else) is likely to have a negative impact on all apartment owners as well…

    3. Hi all,
       I am owner of 2BHK in laurel heights.
       Whats app group of laurel heights owners exists.
       pls share you contacts details here, or message me @ 9741380507

    4. HI tm , Your concern is valid but if salarpuria is not concerned about there reputation in spite of having multiple projects and doing the cheating, I think we need to expose them anyways this will not be hidden for a long time if they cheat each of their customer. We don’t know what will be the quality if they are using just 15% for all the work other than framework , I mean its going to pinch us today or tomorrow.

33. I feel construction linked is always better than time bound as you can monitor the progress. A project consisting of 400 flats would take 36 months for completion & the reviews say it is going super fast then it is good we will get the possession by August 2017. I have a flat in Tower A construction of which started late compared to other towers but within 4 months & Its surprising & in a way its good. I have a flat on Tumkur road & even after paying 80% within first 18 months as per the schedule on completion of the all floors i had to wait for another 18 months to take possession & i feel this is how the payment schedule works.

    1. Hedge Sir, I am not saying they should not ask money , If its a construction based it should be real construction based that means if 80% is completed then ask for 80% money , In my case they asked for 75% in just 7 months , which is not the actual percentage of construction completed and so its a cheating

34. I booked flat in last week of dec.
    And agreement was done on 22nd Jan.
    They sent me 40lacs demand to be paid by 11th Feb.
    And asking me to pay interest for delayed payment. .
    How a bank will process loan in 15 days?

    1. they are big cheaters dont go with them if u have any other option

35. Mr Shekhar from CRM told that they use 85% for framework and yonly 15 % for rest work thats why he is demanding this money, which means just arround 7 lakhs for plastering , piping , finishing, colouring , bathroom fittings, tilling, kitchen fitttnd all, Now I am suspicioacobus about there quality and can very well understand the quality issues in greenage and other projects , which Mr. Jacob reproted.

38. Friend, you can very well go legal by filing a consumer case against the builder.
    Also you can send letter to the banks for the inspection, as the builder is just making the frames of floor and not complete flat and demanding the money form the investors which is actually cheating to the Banks also, the Chief Manager will not be ready to take risk and he will immediately order for re-inspection of the project.

    And as said earlier, send mail to the builder and to the Editor of Newspaper for your quarries and complains and keep the mail copy for consumer case, also meet Bijay Agarwar (MD of Sattva) may be after meeting him going consumer case may not required.

    1. Hi Jacob, Thanks a lot for your advise, will follow what you suggested.

    2. HI Jacob mine is not through bank and self financed , do you know any legal advisor to file the case? I will pay the fee.

    3. Hi
       Jacob can I have your contact number ? I am planning to file a case and publish my experience in all leading news paper

39. Ajay, my advice to you is to legal instead of any protest.

    Also why don’t you meet Bijay Agarwal (MD of Sattva) at Ulsoor Road office and make him aware about the cheating which is happening, if he ignore your words then better go for legal.

    Nowadays government take these things very seriously with one complain in National Consumer Forum and with legal case, the image of Sattva will be in public and even competitor of Sattva will make the news more public in market.

    You can also write one letter to the editor against Sattva and copy of the same to Sattva office later and send the same to all the major newspapers office to the editor, all the major newspaper have a section called ‘Letter to the Editor’, it will also publish in newspaper.

    There are so many law now that even you can stop the Laural Height construction, to check the quality of construction from 3rd party and even construction quality re-check by approved banks with letter to Chief Manager of respective banks and copy of the same letter to respective Bank corporate office in India and make them aware about the cheating happening with banks and their customers.

    1. I am not sure if we’ve any legal recourse. If you read the agreements that we’ve all signed upwith them, they all mention payments based on construction status (and not based on timelines). It is more of an ethical issue (that they mentioned payment demands will be raised once in 3 months, and not 2 times a month). I am not sure if we’ve any legal recourse here..unless they delay in possession beyond their stated date in the agreement.

    2. Yes tm you are right, legally I don’t know if there will be any outcome , with protest we can highlight this issue in public, My logical question is why the construction schedule is so uneven I mean for 80% just 7 months and for another 20% almost 1.8 years :) , I spoke to some Mr. Sridhar and Narmada yesterday and they told me that they are reconsidering the final possession date and it may move in, I told them any further payment for demand I will only make if I will get a new possession date as per today’s speed of construction.

       By going for a protest will expose these guys and also will impact there marketing , For DLF they had similar issue and protest worked out well, We all need to unite together

    3. If anyone thinks that this is happening without Bijay Agarwal (MD) or other top “so-called” top folks at Salarpuria/Sattva, then it is about time you get REAL :-). The CRMs etc are just conveying what the builder (and by builder I mean Bijay Agarwal) has decided (and I am sure they are being paid peanuts for their dirty job). I will be interested in knowing the specific DLF project where protests worked (I don’t recall any project where speed/frequency of demand notes was protested against and things slowed down as a result of these protests). I am a resident in another Salarpuria project (Greenage) and there residents have been protesting against so many things for so many years, but nothing has happened. Builders just save their skin by hiding under legal terms and conditions (which are part of agreement or other documents buyers have signed) and then do everything under the sun which can be termed unethical (e.g outright lies about status of cauvery water, new blocks, khata transfer, status/quality/make of lifts, other safety precautions, etc). Apologies if i sound negative, but I have burnt my fingers a bit too much from these builders (especially Salarpuria Sattva) and don’t have any faith left in them.

    4. Hi Tm, I think you are right and their higher management is aware of this cheating because when I asked the CRM to connect me to some higher authority over phone , The response was not that good. The DLF project I am talking about is DLF garden city Chennai, There were several problems of Quality and all and because of the protest they got direct impact on the marketing and there brand name and since it was a very big project they could not sold even 70% of the units and later the builder took an effort to improve the situation. I still feel that on a Saturday or sunday ww all should accumulate at a common place and do a protest by calling media and all, I am daily listening on Radio and all the advertisements they put to sell there property , Our protest will definitely impact there sale and probably they will learn some lesson.

40. I am planning for a protest against the builder , I spoke to the new CRM and it seems they are not at all concerned, lets plan for a protest infront of their office , If you all agree that its a cheating , Lets make them famous

We booked it looking to the price from tier one builder , But now they already collected the money that they should collect in 14 month in 6 month, Initially the CRM (Mrs. Manju), with whom I signed the contract told the demand will be every 3 months, So though the builder collected the money in 6 months what he was supposed to collect in 14 months and clamming it is because the construction is going fast , Stil the possession date is same as earlier, So if they completed 14th months work in 6 months why the possession date is same ? actually its there tactics to collect 85% money and then sieat on that money for almost 2 years, So if we calculate the actual price we are paying is almost 6 to 7 lakhs more (the intrest on 85% for 2 years), I spoke to them and they don’t have a logical answer for the uneven schedule. This is not a fair dealing and similar case of cheating by other builders is already posted on net.

    1. I booked in October 2014 and kind of expected it (but still 2 payment demands within a month is something even I didn’t expect in my wildest dreams) – construction linked is completely in favor of builders – they can put together an entire structure of 20 floors in 6 months. A category or B category, i think it is a race-to-bottom in real estate. A category is a lesser “thug” than a B category one. I can now say with full confidence that they will manage to build the 2 extra towers – D & E. They know how to work the system . I also feel that all the salaried class (me included) is wasting their hard-earned money on these thugs by purchasing these apartments.

43. Has anyone looked at GM Infinite Daffodils project? Any review or feedback on that project?

44. Still struggling to get a response from Salarpuriya. Already started getting a feel that in the name of pre launch, I made a big mistake booking in this property. Would advise others to be more cautious.

    1. Hello Raj, did you get a response from the builder?

45. HI SCJ, Not sure what buying from “owner’s share” mean as this was never mentioned to me when I signed up for the flat in pre-launch phase. It’s only now when the agreement is to be signed, I am being told that the agreement will be with “Queo Properties”. Just wondering what my options here are?

    Sign in with Google to reply

46. Dear friends, how many of you have signed the agreement. There is a mention in the agreement that two more blocks are likely to come up in future. In that case the the land share of each purchaser reduces accordingly.

47. I also got the agreement for sale & construction yesterday. It mentions construction of 8 Block-A,B,C,F,G,H,I and J. Just one query I have for members here is that the agreement they have sent is between “Queo Properties” and Buyer (myself). Is this alright? My impression was that the contract will be between Salarpuria and buyer, but seems like Saparpuria is only the promoter with no real legal obligation.

    1. @Raj in my case there is a Power of attorney to the developer and my agreement is with the developer. Could it be you are buying it from the owner share ?

48. I’ve got the agreement and yes there is such a mention.I am not an expert on property matters, but I guess the reduced UDS per purchaser is consequential to the grant of approval for the additional blocks – something they have said will come up if they are approved additional FAR.The agreement however does not mention any proposed blocks D&E presently.

49. Anybody has signed the agreement. I am told that there is some mention in the agreement that the UDS will decrease later if they get approval for another two blocks (D & E). What is the opinion of learned members?

    1. Hi Ramon,

       Blocks D & E will not be built.
       Salarpuria did not get approval from government for blocks D & E.

52. Dear friends,
    Now I have received a letter from Salarpuria to pay additional 1% towards TDS (since the purchase cost is more than 50L). Is it correct? I thought this 1% is included in the total price and this amount should have been deducted as TDS while making payment, and to be paid to Govt. Learned members are requested to clarify.
    Also received a request to pay some amount towards franking charges.
    Regards/Murali

    1. 1% TDS is included in the price, not extra. Deduct 1% from every installment that you pay to the builder.

57. Harish,
    I am planning for book 3bhk, what is your suggestion on the trustworty
    I read all the aove feedback and met Laural Height sales peoples too.
    I have following issues, can you help me to clarify:

    1. They were saying that the project will launch by Dec 14 but still there is no news for the launch.
    2. They are taking about 8 towers oly so that resident get good palce for use and no issue in water supply, what if they launch D&E block later just for their profit, we all will be cheated by them, since it reduses unit per share for all, is it possible to go leagelly at later stage if builder does this, since there words, advertisement, demo video and demo structure they have are all without D&E blocks

    I have ful doubt on their promises words, like D&E will not come, launch date, water supply, etc.

    kindly give your valuable suggestions.

    2. I have booked in B blokc

    3. I Have bought a 3BHK in Laurel heights in prelaunch and I have been told that the demand letter will be issued every 3 months , Now I am seeing the demand letter is issued every fifteen days and If I remove the tax and other payment , I already made a payment of 66 percent and got another demand letter, which Indicates the construction work has completed to 70% in 6 months , But still the possession date is Aug 2017, after making this instalment, I will be making almost 75 percent of the price , then why the 25% work will take almost 1.5 years to complete , Don’t understand the logic.

    4. Same here. They are taking money every month that too with short payment notice. Feels so frustrating. Big mistake in the name of Tier 1 builder. They are all same..cheaters.

60. looking at buying this today, shall I move ahead? seeing the comments above, thought I should take a group feedback.

61. Hi Harish,

    i went to Salarpuria Builder recently at their sites and their office at Ulsoor Road, they made very clear that they are coming with 438 units as promised in their advertisement and braking such words can always lead to legal aspect and because of which in future they will not be able to sale their current blocked flats they said.
    Regarding Kaveri water, they made it clear that presently they have only bore well water and in later stage Kaveri is possible.
    The only one thing i didn’t like is they are forcing to pay full 20% of flats amount before the launch of the project which is not good, since for buying my property i have met various class 1 & 2 builders and no one is taking full 20% amount before launch also they are not even ready to provide documents for legal verification with regard to land and other approvals.
    I am thinking to buy 3bhk but because of some of the above comments I am not able to take final decision on this, since they are not giving anything in writing whatever they are saying by words, this is what makes me confused that will builder like Salarpuria can also pass wrong information just to sale their flats.

    Can you give us true information on D&E blocks, Keveri Water, Land and other Approvals related things, Launch Dates?

    Sign in with Google to reply

    1. Hi Raj,

       All the approvals are in place ( Need not to worry) pertaining to cauvery water and no. of units what builder has told you is correct, nowadays once the approvals are in place before the launch, builder demands for 20% payment and execute the agreement

62. No Cauvery water promises made to me either, they did say borewell with good reserve.Adjacent Sobha Ruby has been running on borewells ever since launch.I wonder how many projects in Bangalore have Cauvery connections.Great if they do.As I had said, they have been open with most things I asked them about including D&E towers.There is a new Vaishnavi project coming up close by near Jalahalli cross for Rs 4899 psft.Those considering this project, willl do well to compare the two to know if Laurel heights still makes sense.

    Sign in with Google to reply

    1. Hi Praveen,

       I would say majority of the projects doesnt have cauvery connection and they are self sustained with borewells, STP, RWH and other water conservative process, very few areas in bangalore like Jayanagar, koramangala, few parts of HSRLayout and other old bangalore localities only has cauvery connections as of now.. GOvt has plans of providing cauvery connections across bangalore which shall take 20-25 years of time, till that time above mentioned water resources are the only options and which are all self sustained
       comparing between the projects as suggested both has their own pros and cons; cant be compared each other because of its location and price
       and in terms of project configuration both are at par

63. I have blocked a 3 BHK here. I had the same questions regarding water, they clearly told me they have borewell and was nothing sure about Cauvery Water connection at this point of time. They were also very open about the D and E block, they were awaiting approvals. And regarding 20%, true they have collected the cheque, not encashed. And was told will be en cashing post launch. Yeah , I know I can’t be sure about that. I still feel its a very good option for the location and the competitive price.

    1. Dear SCJ, In which Block and what is the Number? I have booked in A Block

    2. I have blocked a 3 BHK in the F Block

64. Friends,
    There is no such rule that any Tier 1 builder will always think for investors, we all they are more concerned with their profit.
    I would like to answer so many things with my personal experience, I have met Salarpuria people more than 4 times and I met different peoples 3 times and you know for same question there was different answer by them.
    They told me they have already got Kaveri approval which will be connected to property when it’s in possession, not now since kaveri is not for construction, but true fact is they are still working hard for getting such approvals and there is no response from the authorities.
    They have very clearly told me that that are coming up with only 438 flats only and when I asked why D&E blocks are showing, they said they had plan initially, but it is cancel by Salarpuria at later stage and they will have only 438units, and now when I asked them they are you coming up with 550 units they said no we have no such plan for 550units are coming up with 438units and 8 towers only and that’s why you can see 438 numbers in our catalogue, videos and other property websites as a proff, but the reality is they are working hard with BDA for D&E block, I was not expecting such type of false information in the initial stage from so called tier 1 builder.
    Regarding price, pls understand its low because it’s in in pre-stage but tats not only the meaning, the actual reason is they are going to handover property in 2018 end only after 4 + yrs which is pretty long time, they have not at planned for any launch and they have collected 20% of the payments from all the investors which is not good, since they can take money only after launch and before that they are supposed to take only blocking amount of 2-3lac like other tier 1 builder, it seem, they are fully depended on investors’ money for construction.
    Regarding price, I request any one to check little inside (1-2 km) from Jallali junction and you can see 3 bhk flats at total cost of 45 lac with 1250 sq feet and that too construction time is 2 1/2 yrs
    Pls don’t go in emotion, get full details in black and white, or ask question from builder, I bet they will not give anything in writing also increasing units from 438 to 550 is purely misguiding and cheating to investors.
    See the total cost we are investing in advance for lifetime investment and then say if everything can be adjusted just like that so that builder can earn extra money for 112units and you get more crowed for small area, small clubs and summing pools, think broad for future also knowing that for water, bore well is only the option for 438 units and 112 extra if they come with 550 units which was never mention in their plan initially and now for more their own profit they are doing the same which was never expected from Salarpurai since it was termed as Tier 1 builder.

65. Agree fully. Neither did I get any impression that the builder was dishonest.They have been consistent since the very beginning that the additional tower/s are subject to approvals. That said, there is no way for me to know if they have been honest about having sold 200+ flats already in pre launch but looking at the location and Tier 1, I do not have reason to doubt they would have sold 200+. Yes this will not be a 25 Acre plot with 1000 flats and super luxury features but had that been the case, I doubt it would have been Rs 3950/Sqft either. The location is not one to wait and watch to see how it unfolds – its already unfolded. I have been to a few projects and the ‘walk score’ here is perhaps one of the highest of any Bangalore new projects at this price. However, I speak of the positives not knowing how the approvals and construction process progresses – there is where there is a risk which one can only hope is mitigated this being Tier 1.

66. Overall, the call you’ve to take is whether this project from a “A category builder” in a great location (others have mentioned how the location is perfect, and I agree) is worth buying at 3950/sq ft even if the number of towers are 10 (or total apartments are 550). I took that call, and decided it was indeed worth it and I’ve booked a 2 BHK there. To be realistic, this is not going to be a super-luxury or luxury complex – more of a decent/value-home from a top builder (due to the small sizes/ high density).

    Sign in with Google to reply

    1. Hi Ramon,

       As per my latest discussion with Salarpuria Team. There are no extra units coming in the project.

68. Dear Friends,
    It’s true, they are passing wrong information to the investors, they are saving that its 438 units but they are planning for 550 units, naturally they are not concerned with resident convenient they are only concerned with the profit, that’s is only the reason the property is not sold as per the requirements and unit price are same from last 2-3 months (3950/- and not 3750/- which is mention above in this project details), they were calming that the price will rise from 1st of Nov from 3950/- to 4150/- but we all know the reality, there is no change in the price and the project launch date is again postponed.
    They are still not sure of the date of the launch and they are taking full 20% money from all the investors for blocking the required units but later if any investors want to come out of this deal, he or she cannot cancel their investing since they would have already invested 20% on the property price which is big amount, but on the other hand tier 1 builder like Brigade they are taking only booking amount of 2-3lac and not full 20% of property price for their new projects and rest of 20% they will be taking only after launch of the project.
    Also if you asked them about water supply, they are clamming that, they have got Kaveri water approval, but this is false news, they have only bore well and rest all need to take( need true details ask them to furnish papers or print in their property catalogue)
    I think people who are investing here need to put pressure on builder that they should come with only 438 units as claimed in their first catalogue and mode of advertisements or else pls think ones more for investing further.
    The value of property is fully depend on the free place available and most importance the true promise of builder, I was not expecting this type of false information from this Salarpuri Builder, so called 1st tier builder, rather we can think of Brigade property in Mysore road, at least they don’t give false information and gives copy of everything in black and white.

    1. I don’t agree with your views. Builder has been as transparent as they can be. The only reason I know of the possibility of extra 112 units is because their sales person explicitly told me. BDA has approved only 8 towers (even though had submitted a plan of 10 towers) – now between launch and pre-launch, the other 2 towers may or may not be approved by BDA (thats what the sales person told me). Also, on Kaveri water, the pipeline goes right in front of the property. But they need to take approvals from the authorities. Project is still in pre-launch and thats why all the approvals are not in place yet (thats the definition of pre-launch). Thats the risk (potential changes in plans) vs reward (lower price) in buying a pre-launch property.

69. If the brochure states 438 and they end up making 550, it is unfair to the people who have bought into the project. Not expected from a reputed builder like Salarpuria Sattva. It may lead to run ins with the builder.

70. Stumbled upon this form which I quite like keeping abreast of.Just booked a 3 BHK with Laurel heights in pre launch. Having earlier bought a flat in Sobha Ruby Tumkur Road which now resells a 2BHK for around 80L, I had always been keen on this area but not invested for want of a tier 1 project.But laurel heights has taken care of that.This place is already well developed and with further development and the project and Metro’s launch till Nagasandra due, I expect an immediate appreciation and mid to long term growth.The only thing missing and quite a major miss for personal use is if you work at Whitefield. Not so much Electronic city as although far, I know of car pools from nearby Sobha apartments getting to Bannerghatta Road offices and Electronic city via nice road in 25-30 minutes of signal free drive and Manyata Tech park is also only a 30 minute drive away.Leaving mid to long term growth aside, one could live at Laurel Heights starting tomm if posession where to be had.Hesaraghatta main road is already a well developed and inhabited place giving a wide frontage to the property.Metro makes Malleswaram&Rajajinagar a 10 minute journey where land rates are one of the highest in Bangalore.Thinking about it, if one gets down at a same sized home bought near Rajajinagar metro station, one would have probably spent 1.5-2 crores.Another 10 minutes in the train, one gets a home for 60-65 Lacs.Well worth those additional 10 minutes ! But I do worry about the density of flats. If D&E towers are released which I hope not, that will be too many towers in a small area. However, for me, that was not a showstopper for purchase as open spaces/parks are many surrounding the property, if it does indeed get too crowded which I doubt it will.

    1. Dear Praveen, You have booked in which block? I have booked in A block. Have you signed the agreement. Please share your contact number. My number is 9663833555.

71. Yes, the sales person told me that if D&E block get approved, 112 flats will be added. If you see the masterplan above, blocks A to J are actually 10 blocks and not 8. The reason they are quoting 8 is because D &E (which are greyed out in the master plan on this website, and have been colored as white in the marketing brochure) are not yet approved. He was quite clear on this – currently they don’t have approvals on D & E and thats why blocks are 8. Number of flats is 448 as follows: 8 towers * 14 floors on each tower *4 flats on each floor). If the two other towers (D &E) get approved, it will add another 112 flats (2 towers * 14 floors on each tower * 4 flats on each floor). If these two towers don’t get approved, the number will remain 448.

72. Hi tm,
    The brochure clearly states that the total number of flats is 438 inclusive of all 8 towers. Did a sales person actually tell you that the total is 550 flats or are you making this assumption ?

    Sign in with Google to reply

73. All good, only wild card are the two blocks D & E. Plans for these two blocks have not been approved yet. Total number of flats are 438 as per the current approved plan (8 blocks). However, if the plans for D&E also get approved (its under consideration, as per the builder sales team), 112 more flats will get added (bringing the total to 550 flats) which will further reduce the open spaces, etc.

    Sign in with Google to reply

74. Hello ALL,
    Regarding price compared to other TIER1 builders, this luks OK, but one thing to notice is, DENSITY of FLats compared to Total Land area. Number of flats are more for a 4 ACRE project.
    Ideally 1Acre-80 Flats , but this project has more than 108 FLATS per acre.

    1. Hi Hari,

       Project density should not be calculated based on No’s of Flats. Its calculated on Total Saleable Area. You are finding it more because unit size are standard types.

75. Hello Harish,

    I looking to buy this property but I am confused between salpuria Laural Height and Brigade Panorama which is going to come in Mysore road, can you pls help me to know which is best to invest for self stay with some convincing points.

    Sign in with Google to reply

    1. Hi Dev,

       I feel, Salarpuria Laurel Heights would be ideal option. Reason being, Ready Infrastructure :: Metro Connectivity :: West Bangalore Booming.

    2. Thanks Harish for your suggestion.
       I have few more points to ask, since the procession of this Laural Height is in 2018, after 4 yrs todays price is 3950/- per sq ft in your opinion what could be the price in 2018 and what rent we can expect in 2018 if by any chance I am not using it for self-stay.

       992 sq ft is costing me nearly 50 lac, so is it advisable to proceed further based on all the above points.

    3. Hi Dev,

       Projected price by 2018 is Rs.5000 – 5250 / Sft. You can expect 20 K rent per month.

    4. What about water supply could be in Laural Height ?

    5. As of now, its Bore well Water Supply.

76. I stumbled upon this blog – so decided to add my 2 cents here. I have booked a 3 BHK here. For the most I agree with the opinions here. However, Nagasandra metro is 1.5 kms away but is not yet operational. The nearest operational metro is Peenya which is > 1.5 kms away. But the price is nonetheless competitive @ 3750. GM Infinite Daffodils is priced at 4190 / sqft, Shriram Sameeksha @ 3990, Tata New Haven at around 4300. Homebuyersvoice.com Walk Score is 82 for this project ( the higher the better – as per me). So a good choice – all in all.

    1. Now the the price for this property is 4350 psf. and due to this project the sale of GM infinity has drastically effected and reduced. Due to which their psf price has been reduced from 4190 psf to 3200 psf. Even if you negotiate, they may offer in 2900 psf also.

77. I have similar opinion too. The location seems pretty good. The project looks very impressive as well. As per the sales guy the response is good as well. As per his stats 170 apartments are already booked from the launched blocks.

    Sign in with Google to reply

78. Hi Harish,

    Why is there such a low level of interest in this Salarpuria property? The builder has recently raised the price from 3750/- psf to 3950/- psf. I think the prices are really good considering its a Tier 1 builder. Even the location is well within the city with a Metro Station already functioning at 1.5 Kms from the location.

    What could be the potential pitfalls?

    I did a site visit last weekend. With my limited knowledge, I thought the location was quite good along the 100 ft Heassarghatta road axis. Its just about a 1 Km+ inside the Tumkur Road which I think is a blessing since you are away from the maddening traffic.

    Any outlook would be welcome since I am looking to buy into the project, it being the only one from a Grade ‘A’ builder that seems to fit in my budget and is also located bang inside the city limits.

    Thanks.
