Ghaziabad site visits are a real eye-opener
Honestly, after years of renting, I thought buying would be simpler. Fed up of rent hikes, I'm finally taking the plunge. But yaar, site visits for projects like Parivahan Apartment are confusing. Builders promise so much, but what's the actual construction quality? Like, after 6 months, do cracks appear? And amenities, are they just for brochure photos or actually usable? What should I really look for during an under-construction site visit to spot bad quality?

Agree with U10. Residents are key. Ask about water supply, electricity backup, and security. Sometimes builders cut corners there. And for under-construction projects, always check the plaster quality, electrical conduit routing, and plumbing points. Cracks often appear due to poor plaster work or foundation issues, but in a 2014 project, structural issues would've surfaced already.
Bhai, Parivahan Apartment mein total 225 units hain, it's a decent sized society. For quality, you need to check common areas like lift lobbies, basements, and fire safety equipment. If those are well-maintained, chances are individual flats are also okay. Also, talk to current residents, they're your best source of info.
Yaar, Parivahan toh bahut purana project hai na? 2014 ka possession date. Abhi usme kya dekhoge construction quality? Resale hi hoga mostly. Builders ki toh baat hi mat karo, sab marketing hype hota hai. My friend bought in Ahinsa Khand 1, builder promised a swimming pool, it was just a dirty pond for years.
RERA tab tha hi nahi bhai! 2014 mein toh RERA ka naam bhi nahi suna tha. That's the biggest risk with older projects. You're relying purely on the builder's reputation and society's current state. Check the society balance sheet, that's a good indicator of maintenance.
That's why I'm so confused! If it's resale, then I need to check different things. What about the structure? Any RERA complaints from that time? I'm looking at options in Abhay Khand too, but similar issues.
Sahi keh rahe ho. Ahinsa Khand 1 mein bhi kaafi projects ka yahi haal hai. Parivahan ka price range 51L-2.3 Cr dikha raha hai, for a 2014 project, that's quite a wide range. Depends on the flat size and condition, I guess.
Totally get you, bhai. Rent hikes are killer. Parivahan Apartment ka naam toh suna hai, but 2014 possession date sunke thoda doubt ho raha hai. Is it even under construction now or resale?
Haan, it's definitely resale now. For old projects like this, focus on maintenance records and how well the society is managed. Cracks and seepage are common in older buildings if not maintained properly. Go during monsoon season if possible, you'll see the real picture.
Exactly! Parivahan Apartment toh 2014 ka possession hai. Ab toh resale market mein hi milega. Construction quality toh ab rehne wale hi bata sakte hain, ya phir society office se pata karo.
