Kolte Patil Developers:-DESTRUCTION NOT CREATION

Review On Kolte Patil Developers, Pune

I booked a 2BHK flat at the Kolte Patil Project in October 07 for lumpsum at a of 40 Lakhs. As I was new to Pune and first time investing in Real Estate I wanted to deal with only a brand of repute. Few localites suggested Kolte Patil, hence I decided to close my deal with them. And the series of Worries started.

1) Promised date of Possession on agreement was on/before 31st March 08 and my temporary accomdation period was getting over. They never committed a definate date and kept increase the date every 15 days under the pretext of LIFT WORK NOT COMPLETED due to RAJ THAKERAY's campaign against Non Marathi Labourers. I had made full payment through ADF(Kotak Mahindra) except Maintainence(Payable on Possession) still got possession only on June 16th(My A wing Lift was still not working and my flat was on the 9th floor) I had to take the B wing lift, till 8th floor, walk to A Wing from the common area and then climb to 9th floor to enter my house for the next 3 weeks.

2) PLEASE REMEMBER TO CHECK ALL FITTINGS:- While taking possession they didn't give me the possession till I paid the entire maintainence. But when it came to the fixing the substandard work that they had done, inspite of repeated follow ups the same is still not fixed. The Floorings in every room had issues even in hall the Vetrified tiles have been placed unevenly. The tile in the bedroom was cracked. The Tiles in the Passage and kitchen were loose and shaking every time you walk over it. Repeated feedbacks and requests to the maintainence team, had no positive response. Finally on 08092008 they came to my house to replace the tiles but with a completely different set. then wat was put in the entire flat. So It spoilt the entire decor. but I had no option. Other issues. The wall painting was not done properly and the fixing the same is still not done completely. The bathroom fittings/plumbing and tiles was also not proper but I got them fixed after repeated pleading.

3) Even the Parking spaces for which I paid 1.5 lakhs was first alloted as per choice and then revoked and alloted randomly.

It was all a HOG WASH. I would only say to all other investing in Kolte Patil "Caveat emptor" ie "Let the buyer beware." To summarise:- They into destruction the wonderful dreams under our creation.

I have added a pic of the leakage in my master bedroom for the last 3 years. Even the builder's maintenance Supervisor is not able to trace the origin of this leakage.
