posted on 10 MayConfused by Sohna's real estate hidden costs
The true all-in cost in Sohna is completely opaque right now. I'm so fed up of renting in Gurgaon, finally taking the plunge and looking at Signature Global in Sector 80. Saw a decent 2BHK for around ₹1.2 Cr. But then stamp duty, registration, PLC, parking... the numbers just keep ballooning. Is it normal for so many hidden charges to appear only closer to possession? Like, what about maintenance deposits, IFMS, or club memberships? Trying to figure out what a ₹1.2 Cr flat actually ends up costing. Any advice on these surprise costs?

Yaar, this is my biggest fear! I'm also a first-time buyer, looking near Airport Road, and the thought of these hidden costs is giving me sleepless nights. My friend told me to always budget an extra 10-15% on top of the 'all-inclusive' price they show you initially, just for these surprises. Is that a realistic buffer?
Sahi kaha, RERA ka naam sab lete hain par follow koi nahi karta. Signature Global ka track record mixed hai, especially with their affordable segment. Sohna mein abhi bhi infrastructure utna develop nahi hua hai, to delays aur extra costs normal hain. Be very careful with the fine print, especially for IFMS and maintenance. These can be huge.
Did you get a RERA-compliant cost sheet? Many builders try to hide these costs. You should insist on a detailed breakdown from day one, not just a verbal quote. Also, what's the carpet area vs. super area they're quoting? That makes a huge difference to the per sqft cost. Have you checked the builder's track record for delivery timelines and hidden costs specifically?
Exactly what I'm facing! I'm looking at a project in Baharampur Naya, and the sales guy gave me a quote, then the 'final' cost sheet had almost 15-20% more. PLC toh chalo samajh aata hai, but club membership ko optional bolke baad mein mandatory kar dete hain. Total scam lagta hai sometimes.
Bhai, welcome to the club! This is absolutely normal. Builders quote a base price to lure you in, and then all these 'extra' charges add up to a significant chunk. It's frustrating, I know. Same happened to my cousin in a project near Badshahpur.
