Hi Harish,
Requesting your advice here.
I own a 3bhk flat in SFV pine.. my questions are as below:
1. Is it good to hold on to the apartment for the next 5 years
2. If I need to sell it now.. What is an ideal price that I can fetch
Hi Prabhu,
Holding of unit would be ideal an option till the complete project is executed with all amenities. Currently the selling price would be appx from Rs. 5100-5500 psft and again it depends on the floor level and PLC of the unit.
Also the current Base price for Cedar tower is Rs. 5500 psft and Alder is Rs. 6300 psft onwards just for you info
Thanks Harish. Please let us know what would be total resale cost 3 BHK flat (Cedar block) in 15th or 16th floor inclusive of all taxes which we paid to builder. If we hold for another 2-3 years, what is the total resale cost we can expext.
Hi Kamal,
As said in earlier thread comment; the current base price quoted by the developer is Rs. 5,500 psft so appx considering 10% growth on yoy; the expected resale base price after 2 years would be in the range Rs. 6500 to 6800 psft.
Hello Harish,
Thanks for your earlier advice..
I currently have a home loan from Citibank in India. As an NRI can I refinance the home loan from some other bank in India by means of a loan take over. FYI.. I had availed this loan as an RI.
Thank you.
Hi Harish,
I am planning to buy apartment in sfv cedar block…I recently visited the property and had 2 questions:
1) when I was in basement I could get some bad smell of cedar..it was strong near oak block?do you know the reason got this?.
2) I know there is a waste treatment plant in 2.5 kms will this affect sfv and that’s the reason of bad smell?i came to know currently it is closed what are the chances it will re open and sfv will be affected?
Hi Harish, , Require your advice on Pride Springfield. Looking for ready to move 2 bhk, quoted price around 51 L including all for 930 sq ft. Do you feel it is a good offer? what are the appreciation chances and rental opportunities? Some big projects coming nearby.. But the location is not near IT . Also close to subramanyapura lake, does this has any issue with the rajakaluves like Mantri Tranquil. Any advice is welcome.
Thanks
Hi Nilabhra,
Since it is ready to move and already residents are staying in the community, so there won’t be any hassles pertaining to recent lake encroachment issues as per the new NGT norms because it is being considered as retrospective.
Pricing is competitive when compared to other surrounding and upcoming projects, so can be considered.
The appreciation would yield from 8-10% YOY basis. The rental returns would be appx 15000 pm
Hi Harish,
Thanks a lot.
Regards
Nilabhra

Hi Harish,
I visited SFV yesterday … and I was overpowered by the smell of rotting garbage.
The smell was particularly strong in Oak visitor parking area at the back, near the forest. The smell was present almost everywhere near Oak (I didnt visit other blocks); for a period of roughly one hour at around 9:30 am. It subsided later.
I spoke with a couple of residents there and got to know that the smell has started since the past 2 months or so. They didn’t have this problem earlier. The smell is not constant … it comes and goes … on and off … for durations of about one hour or so.
I am guessing that maybe the garbage processing unit has begun operating recently .. as of 2 months ago; and it is causing the smell.
Do you have any more information about this.
I am interested in buying an apartment in Oak, but it is scary to put down so much money only to be next to a garbage dump and overpowering bad smell.
Any information that you could provide would be of great help in helping me make a decision.
Thank you.
Siva
Hi Siva,
The Garbage Processing Unit is quite a distance far from the project and as for as we know the as per the guidelines from Central pollution Control Board the garbage unit will have to take a measure in terms of odour controlling technologies such as – complete Green plantation across the boundary of the processing unit, Best management practices, Nozzles, sprayers and atomizers that spray ultra-fine particles of water or chemicals usage along the boundary lines of area sources to suppress odours, masking, chemical treatment etc..

Hi Harish, What are your views about SFV Alder Project with 4 BHK apartments
Hi Ranjan,
Its a premium tower, Whole block consists of only 4 BHK Units. Good for self living.
Hi Harish,
Want to know if there will be VAT/ Tax applicable on a resale – non registered flat. The owner has paid all amount due to the builder but has not registered the property.
Your quick reply will be highly appreciated.
Navin
Hi Navin,
You need to collect VAT / Tax amount which you have already paid to builder from the new buyer.
Hi Harish,
Please help me understand the process of buying any pre-owned flat which is not registered. What all paper work one needs to review and should be aware of the process. Also, the amount involved into name/ ownership transfers.
In addition, is the Sobha FV on a A Khata or B Khata?
awaiting your feedback.
Hi Navin,
Every builder will have different set of process for selling pre register property. I suggest you to talk to Sobha CRM team to know more about the same. Sobha FV is A Khata property.
I’m keen to own a flat in FV for 1800+SFT. East facing is preferable.
Hi…I own two apartments in Sobha Forest view. One with Maple I have already sold. I own a apartment in OAK in the 9th Floor Block2 East/West entrance and facing to wards the amenities with swimming pool and open view towards Isckon temple side and high rise buildings. Unit is ready to move in with no issues and I have the keys ready.
Any one Interested?
Is this already sold? If not, please let me know, I am interested
kindly comment on my email as i am keen to receive your reply.
Looking back at your comments. You have mentioned that the possession can be expected in May 2014. It means that either you have no clue about any of the projects or you are as vulnerable to builders stories like any of us.
i booked 3bhk in ebony shoba forest view 16th floor and they collected 100% money within one year but no news from them about anything regarding the project.,, registration and other request for modifications/changes required by me in my apartment. Also i am interested to know that since my apartment is booked on the right side corner facing the side of forest in ebony, it is possible for me to see from the front balcony in hall a look at the sri krishna leela temple tower coming up near this project. pl let me know.
Unlike other projects you mention in the plus points as metro only. Metro is also quite far? Do you think you need to revise the plus points for this project or should we take the other projects plus points with a pinch of salt?
Frankly I saw this project personally and it blew my mind. It seems very posh. How much is this for and when is it due for occupation? Can we get some deals or discount if we approach through you?
Looking for a 3BHK in Pine – only the corner flats. Please email at [email protected]
Hi Harish,
Can you please let me know what should be rent for 3 BHK flat in Maple in Sobha Forest View if I want to rent it out.

Hi
I have booked a 3BHK in Ebony C6-type on the first floor. Price is coming to 1.11 cr (all inclusive). The Super-built up of the flat is 1715.1 sft. The built-up area is 1452.602 and common area (incl. parking) is 262.49 sft. When I calculate the carpet area, I can see that it is coming to around 1212 sft. Is it an acceptable ratio for the carpet area to built-up area? Please advice.
Thanks
Viswa
Hi Saurav,
Thanks for the update. Getting OC is not a pre-requisite for Registration and hence registration can be done independent of OC. But to move into the apartment or to live in the apartment legally, getting the OC for the entire building is mandatory. I own a flat in Cedar so I have a long wait anyway, but since other towers are getting closure to completion, thought will check with Harish or any owner from OAK,Pine or Maple. Please refer to this website for details on OC.
http://bangalore.citizenmatters.in/articles/how-to-get-occupancy-certificate-home-bangalore-bbmp
Hi GG & Saurav,
Mr. Saurav is stating correctly about the OC aspect, but for the full and final possession OC is mandate, builders may usually provide temporary possession letter for interior work
Hi Harish,
I think the OAK,Pine and Maple is up for handover in Feb (not very sure). Is the property been granted Occupancy Certificate? Will Sobha ask buyers to register the property before they secure OC. Please advise.
Hi,
I also own a apartment in the Oak Block. When I spoke to the Sobha CRM team, they told that the OC will be provided by Sobha Developers after registration. However the CRM team mentioned that the possession will be delayed by a month now as some of the work for the common amenities is still pending.
Hi GG,
Builders usually start the registration process after obtaining the OC
Is it worth paying 1c for a ground in a gated community in kanakapura road
hi harish
what in your opinion should be the trending cost of a 3BHK apartment in sobha forest view OAK corner premium 17th floor facing the forest. thanks!
1.5 cr
Hi Harish, I am considering purchasing a resale at sobha FV oak 17th floor premium flat forest facing, for 1.7 cr. Does this seem like a reasonable figure ? what is the current real estate value in that area? thanks!
bg,
Did you finalize on the Oak flat ?.. I was also looking to buy in oak but 1.7Cr is out of my price range. The project is very good.
Do let me know if you decided to buy.
Harish,
Pls provide your input on the resale price and if it is worth buying given that this is a bit far off location.
HI bg
You can consider that property for 1.5 cr.
Hi, What should be the current resale cost in Maple block?
Hi Harish,
Today there is a news about the Mantri Quantile, Uttatrahalli where BDA has demolished the compound and they are saying that the apartment are illegal as it was built on encroached land of Storm Water Drain. Though people are living there from past few years and paying taxes regularly. Considering this incident, I need to know if Forest View is clean in terms of these issues because there is a forest next to it and if all the approvals are taken from the forest department. Please response ASAP
Hi GG,
As far as i know, there no projects in bangalore by name Mantri Quantile and i have not come across such news. Besides, All the NOCs are obtained by Sobha Developers for Sobha Forest view Project.Need not to worry.
Dear Harish I had been near Sobha FV today Garbage dump is coming up on the other side of the forest. After RV College of Architecture which is exactly 4 Kms away from Sobha Forest View. ..will this drop property prices of Sobha FV…please let me know
Hi NS,
Garbage Processing unit will not effect sobha Forest view Price Trends.
Harish I agree with Jaison. Please respond to Saurav and Bala, we also have similar query. In your opinion will this not effect the property prices of Sobha Forest View due to stink from the garbage disposal which is just 2 kms away.
Hi Ravi,
I have responded to Saurav and Bala. Garbage Procession unit is not 2 Kms, Its Actually 3 Kms away from the project and it will no way effect Sobha Forest View.
Harish,
How long are you taking to respond to saurav’s questions? You have to be transparent, else we will expose you. Your silence shows that you may have been paid by the builder. Are you? Else please find out and let us know
Warm regards,
Jaison
Mr.Jaison,
If there is a delay in responding doesn’t mean i am favouring builder and what expose are you talking about ??? We have floated this platform to bring transparency in Real Estate Field. I have replied to saurav’s questions.
HI Harish,
The Karnataka State Government recently announced a major waste dumping ground near turahalli forest. In your opinion will this not effect the property prices of Sobha Forest View due to stink from the garbage disposal?
I already have a property in Sobha Forest View & thinking of selling it due to this reason.
Please share your opinion in this regard.
Thanks
Hi Harish, Please respond to this query. we are asking this query from many months. We are very much concerned with this. Spending crores on the apartment near garbage dump is scary. Please share your opinion. Please let us know if Sobha Forest few is near by garbage dump.
Hi Bala,
Sorry for delay in reply, I have personally inspected Garbage Processing unit. The unit will be active from Feb 2015. It is well planned and 3 Kms away from Sobha Forest view Gate. Besides, As Sobha Forest view is surrounded by Thurahalli Forest, it will not lose its beauty nor its surroundings. Based on my views Price trend will not effect.

Even I heard there is garbage dump coming up near Banashankari. Is it anyway near to Forest View? Bala
Hi Harish,
In forest view, they say they have all approvals. I have following questions
1. Bescom approval- does this mean that the individual apt will have electricity connection on completion of project and before possession. Because in Sobha Aspire it was run on generators for one year.
2. Sobha has already collecting the BWSSB charges, so when the connection comes, do we need to pay again
3. They have mentioned Sub-station in the brochure but in the price there is no specific charges for that. Do they charge later?
Hi Giridhar
1. Bescom approval- does this mean that the individual apt will have electricity connection on completion of project and before possession. Because in Sobha Aspire it was run on generators for one year.
– It should be before possession as per the latest norm from BDA, OC will not be handed over without the BESCOM and BWSSB connections
2. Sobha has already collecting the BWSSB charges, so when the connection comes, do we need to pay again
– No
3. They have mentioned Sub-station in the brochure but in the price there is no specific charges for that. Do they charge later?
– Sub-station is included in the price, in-case if the cost occurs more than the calculation, they may ask for further charges
Hi Harish,
I am planning to book Sobha Cedar C2 type on 16th floor. They are quoting 95.6lacs. Is it worth buying? I wanted lower floor but its not available. They are saying that generally there are cancellations so they can provide but no guaranty. What is the cash regarding price.
Hi Giridhar
Its worth going ahead with 95.6 Lacs. Its better to opt now else, there wont be any availability according to your requirement as the project holds good demand.
Dear Harish,
I heard there is garbage dump coming up near Banashankari. Is it anyway near to Forest View?
Ketan
Hi Ketan
As far i know Garbage dumpat Banashankari is till not confirmed. We think its not near Forest view project.
Dear Harish, what should be the current all inclusive cost for a Maple 9th floor apartment, facing the tennis court/cricket pitch?
Hello Harish
Wanted to swap a flat in maple block of sobha forest view and upgrade to oak …
Even lower floor would be good..again 11th floor.kindly suggest.
Hi Shilpa,
Choose for middel or upper middel floors.
Hi Shilpa, I am also exploring similar. I have a Maple forest- facing unit in 19th floor , Would like to to upgrade to Oak. Did you have any luck.
Harish
For me its confirmed, I have to pay for the extra size thats added.. rate per sf remains the same as the initial selling price.. Don’t know whether I should object. Is it the same for others? Whats are you people going to do? @Harish Whats your opinion about whether we should accept this change or not? Do they keep provision in the initial agreement to introduce this kind of changes in between?
Hi Satheeshan,
Builders usually keep provision for these kind for changes in the agreement.
HI
Which would be a better investment?
Century Central or Sobha Forest View?
Hi Vijay,
Sobha Forest View holds better ROI.
Same here with my ebony c10 too.. The CRM told us we have to pay extra.. then got a mail they will get back to us.. no clarity though
Dear Harish,
Do you have info on recent changes in size of C2 types cedar?
They have not said anything on price changes..
thanks.
Hi sobha Customer,
As far as i know, There no changes in the Size of C2 of in Cedar or any block.
I also got a mail regarding this for my ebony c10 unit. No info on price though. When I asked about price, they replied they will get back soon on this.
Hi Harish, What is the current price/sqft for Sobha Forest View Cedar? Also what would be the all inclusive price (assuming not adding the floor cost charges)? Please let me know
Hi Sreeram,
Current Price is Rs.5000/Sft. Approx all inclusive price would be 92 Lacs onwards.
Dear Harish, I have two queries and request ur views on that..[1] the turrahalli forest which is the USP for Shobha forest view, do we see any concern it disappearing in near future by Govt. DE notifying and selling it off. [2] Do we have water scarcity in that region of Shobha forest view Pls. advice
Hi Dipak B,
As per Karnataka State Forest Department. Turahalli Forest is under Forest conservation zone. So, Chances of Disappearing would be negative. As far as i know, There are no water scarcity in that region.
