posted on 9 MayFinally taking the plunge after years of renting
The hidden costs of water and power backup can kill your ROI in Bangalore. Fed up of renting, my landlord raised rent again, so I'm finally taking the plunge. EMI vs rent math is pushing me towards Legacy Celino. But I'm super worried about the basic utilities. Yaar, water supply in Bangalore is always an issue. What's the scene with tanker dependency there? And power backup? Is it full flat backup ya sirf common areas? As an investor, reliable water and power are huge for tenant attraction and lower maintenance. Any real experiences?

Legacy Celino is a completed project, right? So someone must be living there already. Can any current resident confirm the power backup situation? Is it truly 1
You're right to be concerned about water and power. I almost went for a project last year that seemed great but then found out it was completely dependent on tankers during summer. It's not just the cost, the availability itself becomes a huge stress point. And given the current market conditions, prices are still quite high for new projects, so you really need to be sure about the amenities you're paying for. Don't rush into it just because you're fed up with your landlord.
Sahi kaha. Market abhi bhi garam hai, lagta hai thoda aur wait karna chahiye. What do you think?
Which project were you looking at? Any specific builder issues you faced?
Totally feel you on the renting part! This EMI vs rent struggle is real. Legacy Celino sounds good on paper, but the price range (₹1.7 Cr – ₹2.8 Cr) for a first-time buyer like me is a bit scary, especially with these hidden utility costs. Water is a nightmare in places like Aavalahalli too, so I'm also worried.
Exactly! My friend bought a flat near Sarjapur and the builder promised 24/7 water and power. End result? Tanker mafia aur gen-set ka bill alag se. It's not just about the EMI, these recurring costs can really pinch. Legacy Celino mein bhi confirm karna padega sab kuch.
Haan bhai, same here. Budget mein rehna mushkil ho gaya hai Bangalore mein. Har cheez ka price upar hi jaa raha hai.
