Good quality but lot of delays, less common area

Review On Sobha Developers, Bangalore

Sobha can not be beaten on quality. I have seen properties on Mantri. Stayed at a Brigade property and finally bought a Sobha property. I can definitely say the end quality delivered by Sobha can not be delivered by any other builder of Bangalore.

Another plus is that though they were badly beaten during the recession they did not go down but that is the case with any other top builder in Bangalore. But their projects never have the grand appearance or scale as those done by Purva, Mantri or Brigade.

They try to cut corners on the common area. You will feel the common area and facilities given are not sufficient for the large number of residents. e.g just two small lifts(plus one service lift) for a block with 120 apartments. No garbage chutes.huh!

Project execution is pathetic. There delays and then there are Sobha delays. They can not stick to commitments on timelines. a project which is supposed to get over in 2.5 yrs easily gets delayed by another year.add another year before they actually close the project after hand overs. They never have a reason or a good plan to contain the delay. Customers are never informed on time. Communication is never clear. the compensation offered is peanuts as compared to the delay.

And I will not accept them as builders with honest practices. caught them once following some dishonest practice. but its not rampant like other smaller builders. it was just one off case. The whole interaction with em was not as smoothless as I expected. Most of my interactions with them were full of issues. I cant remember one interaction with them which went smoothly.

CRM never has correct info. Replies are never on time.

Bottomline: Good quality but not value for money. look for other options before you go for them. they will be my last resort if I need to buy something again.

I completely agree with you... I'm regretting my purchase at Pune from them. I wish I could sell the property but in vain. Thank you for your post, I hope others don't get to go through what we have.

Regards,

Miera
