Ivy Estate Twin Villa : OVER PRICED

Review On Kolte Patil Developers, Pune

When we went there to check out the Ivy Estate Twin Villa, we were initally impressed with the vastu and all. So we decided to take a second look before booking. It was during this second visit we really got really disappointed.

It appeared to be overly priced initially. But our second visit shocked us. For some villa to be placed at 1.2 cr the amenities to say the least is shared with the apartments and frankly they seem inadequate considering the population it is supposed to address. Probably they are more in line of "good to say about" rather than actualy using them.

Security: Well this is a true shocker! No intercom nothing! Yes there is a security post placed at the road that connects the villas but that poor security guys are probably expected to know every resident living to provide any effective security! Mind you that road in the future will also connect the aparments as well along with the outside world to the schools, clinics. Well that probably states a lot. Without intercom the poor security can't even perform a decent check on the incoming traffic.

As per the villas, Kolte gives ad about having party on your lawns! Give us a break, look at the size of the lawn and now comes the killer. Well they will provide you the provision of having a lawn! no soil nothing. You are expected to fill them will soil and grass or tiles.

Strange thing I noticed. Buyers shelling over 1 cr should not be expected to have ACs. Well, thats right, AC provision is only for master bed room. Look at Karia or Gera, they provide AC provision for ALL rooms.

These days almost everybody provide solar heated water with a private water storage tank when it comes to row houses or villas. Well this is being missed glaringly.

So basically you pay 1.2 CR for literally nothing but the bare structure. Guess people with a lot of disposable money will be the ones targetting them.

Also, recent heard some disturbing news about the quality of construction as well. Apparently for one of the construction a slab broke and fell killing a few labourers! Things like this seriously raise a question mark on the longevity of the construction and more importantly how safe would we be after 10-15 years time!
