Smondoville people are thieves- everyone!

Review On Patel Realty, Bangalore

Please please do not make the mistake of buying or renting here. The Home Owner's Association has monopoly. Home owners have to pay membership fee, to be a part of the association.

Owning a home here is not enough. They have done away with the maintenance company, and now have increased the maintenance, without reason.

They are planning to increase the cost of back-up generators, in spite of the owners paying maintenance.

The generators weren't chargeable before. There is NIL maintenance done, anyway. Beehives aplenty. The plumbing will give you terrible problems and the fixtures and construction is dangerous.

And when you try to speak with them they say, please speak in Kannada! where is Karnataka? India. What is India's official language?

Hindi. How does the language matter anyway. AS long as the communication is clear? And now they have introduced new costs.

Anyone moving in and out of Smondoville, will have to pay for moving in and out. Otherwise they will hold your truck hostage. This in spite of the maintenance.

The maintenance is supposedly used for common areas. So, if your your fusebox in the electricity room(which is common) gets spoilt because of dampness in the room etc, you have to pay for it.

The walls have started cracking after 2 years of construction. No one to take ownership. There is no water inlet for your water filtration system. If you need one, you have to pay them, again.

This is now a common feature in all projects to have a water inlet for filtration system.

Also, their plan is very crappy. The washing machine area is out in the open near the sitting room, and that is the only faucet to which you can attach the water pipe of the machine.

No other place is suitable. There are plumbing problems almost everyday. The recycled water they use for the toilet, leaves black streaks in the commode. and the toilet and other plumbing equipment is of very low quality.

The shower/ tap handle will come off in your hand. Now up to you to decide.

Just know this, the association has a strong hold, so if you ever have any issues, you will have to pay through your nose.
