I work as a bank employee in Ghaziabad and have couple of kids 5 years & 1 year. After completing my MBA from IMS noida in 2004 have been working with multiple financial brands selling their mutual fund / insurance/ account. Coming from a town of MP had no option but to live in rented flats from the beginning of my career. 4+ years back I started exploring the option of buying a flat in noida/ ghaziabad area & that is when my search of flats / sample flats/ under construction flats started happening, coincidentally my brother in law who works with HCL as a Sr. Developer also began the hunt in the same time.
I chose Gaur City project Avenue 1 while my brother in law chose another builder'X' project in the Noida area(not taking any name as my agenda is not to defame any one). The construction & stuff started at the same time.
Before finalizing on the flat we read tones of stuff on web and felt that no builder is to be trusted, even Gaursons. Gradually we realized delivery of possession has been challenge, customer service has been arrogant, builders do al kind of manmaani in terms and condition and many other aspects which just made us jittery on whether we should buy or rather happily live in the rented flat.
However despite reading through all the negative stuff about the builders as we had to see we did buy. Today after 4 years my Brother in law is still struggling to get the flat as honorable court has passed some judgment against the flat that he had invested his life in, while am living in my flat for last couple of year happily, the flat was delayed by an year I guess. But when I look at my brother in law I feel it’s perhaps so important to understand the builder’s previous credential before buying in.
In retrospective, where I feel my decision went right was when I chose to physically check through the property delivered by the same builder in last 1-2 years. It’s very easy to defame anyone thanks to internet if bunch of people want to do that and it’s even easier in such a competitive market of real estate.
While evaluating the recent projects I realized that there were just couples of builders with whom I can risk my lives income, and fortunately decision went right. The previous projects delivered by Gaurson were better quality wise and even price was comparable. They didn’t have much hassle in the possession timelines and most importantly they have always been on the right side of the law.
The current project where I’m putting up now has given us 85% satisfaction while there are some 15% areas of improvement but I feel that’s fine as 100% expectation is crime in this market.
I chose to write this article as I often read stuff people claiming how builder tortured them in some form or another, but no one writes good if you are a happy customer, it’s our equal responsibility to write good stuff too.
So I won’t say Gaursons is the best builder but if you shortlist builders by seeing their projects it enable a more rational decision making.
