Welworth Paradise 2 BHK & 3 BHK Flats near Pancard Club, Baner, Pune:
Mr. Rahul Phene, salesman at Welworth Paradise, showed me his 3 BHK sample flat & under construction clubhouse with swimming pool.
At this point of time, 2 BHK & 3 BHK Flats are available in 8 story A Building & 5 story B Building in Welworth Paradise, he said.
All inclusive (approx) property prices of 2 BHK Flats - 979 to 1045 sq ft Saleable - are from Rs. 61.26 to 65 Lakhs and 3 BHK Flats - 1390 to 1445 sq ft Saleable - are from Rs. 86.5 to 89.5 Lakhs.
"Really?," I said.
"Yes! However, at this point, I am open to negotiations. From the next month, we all have decided to increase the property prices," Mr. Rahul said.
"Thanks for being open to negotiation! We all - means who?," I asked.
"You know? We have an association. Our association decides the property rates of the particular area in Pune. Now, the association has fixed the property rate of Pancard Club at Rs. 6,000 per sq.ft. That's why Amit's Sereno's rates are from Rs. 6,000 to Rs. 6,500 per sq.ft. - for the swimming pool facing - higher floors," Mr. Rahul said.
"Oh! Same rate for Amit's Sereno & Welworth Paradise!! How come? Amit is big, tall & luxurious than yours!," I asked.
"Association's decision. Both are near Pancard Club and both are luxurious - in a different way! However, I told you - I am open to negotiations - only for 2 flats - just to achieve the target - so, decide fast!," Mr. Rahul said.
"Certainly! You are fair & transparent. I am impressed!," I said.

Venkateshwara Mirabel, 2 BHK Flat for Rs. 67 Lakhs near Pancard Club, Baner:
 |
| 2 BHK Flat 1185 saleable Venkateshwara Mirable Pancard Club Baner Pune |
I felt ashamed of myself. As soon as, i entered the top floor 2 BHK Flat - 1185 Saleable - in Venkateshwara Mirabel, I looked at the ceiling. To check seepage & leakage. How unromantic.
Of course, the next moment, I opened the sliding glass door and stood on the terrace - enjoying the drizzling rain. Wondering what was more beautiful the view of Baner or the vacant living & dining of the flat.
"Have a look at the balcony type window in the bedroom," Papu Gautam, the security guard of Mirabel said.
"You said Rs. 67 Lakhs - right?," I asked.
"Yes! 67," Papu Gautam said.
"Isn't it too much?," I asked.
"No one has said so before!," Papu Gautam said.
"Because they may not know that in 2009 - the rate of this flat was 3000 - 3100 - your Saheb from Mumbai may not have paid more than 45 lakhs for this flat!," I said.
"True! But, now a days, no builder makes such a good flat. But, they ask more than 67 Lakhs!," Papu Gautam said.
"Who are you? A salesman or a security guard?," I asked.
"Sirji, anybody can understand the difference between 'asli' & 'nakli' maal!," Papu Gautam said.
"No. Not everybody!," i said and took Papu Gautam's mobile number - 90 49 00 96 71.

Pride Platinum, "Ready Possession" 2.5 BHK & 3 BHK Flats near Pancard Clubs, Baner Pune:
Jumping on the electric golf cart and joining the home hunting couple proved the best way to visit the G & H Buildings of Pride Platinum.
On glossy paper, every floor plan looks good. But when we visit the actual flat, we can see and feel many things which we are not told, haven't understood & never realized. That's the main reason, builders spend heavy amounts of money to create fear about property price rise and compel you to book at the pre-launch & launch stage.
 |
| G & H Wings Pride Platinum Pancard Clubs Baner |
Pride Platinum has 3 BHK & 2.5 BHK Flats. G & H are actually 2 wings of one building, connected by a passage - narrower than the staircase.
The 3 BHK Flats - 1244 Carpet + 74 Terrace for Rs. 1.11 Crore - are at the corner. Whereas, the 2.5 BHK Flats - 1025 Carpet + 74 Terrace for Rs. 92.95 Lakhs - are in the middle.
Obviously, the kitchen of the 2.5 BHK Flat is in the duct.
Though the duct is not that small - because of the connecting passage - it looks quite small and cramped. Plus, the flat & the building is not "ready possession" - Pride Platinum is under construction. So, the duct looks ugly and dark. After the finishing & painting, it will look better - the salesman with us tried his best to convince.
However, the fact of the matter is - which housewife would like a kitchen in a dark duct? Which housewife will feel relaxed & safe when somebody in that connecting passage is invading her privacy?
"I like your 3 BHK Flat and I like the price of your 2.5 BHK Flat. So, if you give me your 3 BHK Flat at the price of a 2.5 BHK Flat - I will book - now!," the housewife said.
"But....there isn't a huge difference in the area - means - living - bedroom - sizes of 2.5 BHK are not that small....," the salesman at Pride Platinum tried to convince.
"The difference is - 2.5 BHK is not a luxury property - it's a compromise flat - don't try to tell me that - a donkey is as good as a horse!," the lady said.
Isn't booking a flat means - generally - paying for a horse and getting the possession of a donkey?

Amit's Sereno, 2 BHK (Rs. 83 to 96 Lakhs approx) & 3 BHK (Rs. 1.14 to 1.26 Crore approx) Flats near Pancard Clubs, Baner Pune:
At the launch, when I complained about property prices - 2 BHK (Rs. 83 to 96 Lakhs approx) & 3 BHK (Rs. 1.14 to 1.26 Crore approx) - at Amit's Sereno Baner, one of the builders blamed the high land prices. The other builder started explaining the time and cost involved in getting sanctions and approvals. Certainly, both were valid reasons and I had no option but to agree with them. However, someone was not in a mood of explanation and justification of property prices.
"Mr. Ravi Karandeekar, Do you question the price when you buy a bottle of Coca Cola? You don't. Right? You pay without questioning - though you know that there is nothing but sweetened carbonated water in the bottle. Then - why do you question a builder who is going to construct a home - which you will enjoy for generations?," one of the builders said.
"Yes! You have a point. I am ready to stop questioning property prices - if you stop booking and start selling ready possession flats - wrapped in golden foil!," I said.
What say you? Don't you agree with me that - as paymasters - we - the property buyers - have an authority to question the property prices and floor plans presented by the service provider - the builder?
After all what a builder presents is only a concept on paper - against what we give him is money.
So, we have a right to ask - on what basis Amit Enterprises claims that "Sereno" is a luxurious project?

| 239 sq. ft. Terrace + 756 sq.ft. Flat - 2 BHK Flat (Type 3) on even floors of Amit's Sereno, 2 BHK & 3 BHK Flats near Pancard Clubs, Baner Pune 411045 |
For me, Amit's Sereno planning is of an affordable housing. Carpet areas of the 2 BHK (753 & 756 sq.ft.) & 3 BHK (1040 - 1041 sq.ft.) Flats are of middle budget project. Look at the sizes of the attached terraces and their proportion with the carpet area of the flat:
140 Terrace - 753 Flat
193 Terrace - 1040 Flat
195 Terrace - 756 Flat
197 Terrace - 756 Flat
197 Terrace - 1040 Flat
210 Terrace - 1040 Flat
211 Terrace - 1041 Flat
239 Terrace - 756 Flat
Total of the carpet areas of the terraces of all 468 flats in Amit's Sereno is 88,628 sq.ft.. If you convert 88,628 sq.ft. carpet area into rupees, you can understand what the intention of the builder is - "Give Less & Take More".
Point is, at Amit's Sereno Baner issue is not only about the property price - issue is about the value for money. About water in the milk. What say you?

Your blog is very informative as well as useful. I like it too much. Just a query that is bothering me - Don't you think that writing about specific project can impact their business which may not be legal?
ReplyDeleteI know that you are knowledgable in this field too, still don't you feel that being neutral is important so the clients get good info as well as no specific businessman is hurt?
@Ek Bharatiya
DeleteExpressing your views is the fundamental right in democracy and totally legal and constitutional.
If it would have had any impact as your are saying then real estate sector would not be in a BIG MESS and BIG SxxT.
Dear Ek Bharatiya,
DeleteOpen conversation, discussion, expressing views, for sure, helps the property buyers, as well as the builder.
What I share on my blog, are my views and experiences. Yours, certainly, will be different. And, of course, the builder will have his own side.
We all will benefit, I believe, if those who are involved in the buying & selling process share - exchange their views.
Fantastic photo walk, Ravi!

ReplyDeleteI am planning to buy a 3BHK in Baner and few builders like Welworth, Reelicon shelters, are claiming a rate of Rs. 6500? Please tell if this is actual rate in Baner or they are claiming on higher side
ReplyDeleteI was keen to buy a property around pancake club.
ReplyDeleteThey are quoting about 7000/Sq ft here.
Is this an inflated rate???
Any advice about this would be very helpful
Thanks
