Pre-launch property mein unexpected costs: Anyone else facing this?
Was supposed to finalize my 3BHK in Gachibowli last month but this builder drama is killing me. I work in real estate, yaar, and still got caught. Booked a unit with My Home Constructions in Kokapet during pre-launch for around ₹1.8 Cr, thinking I'd get a good deal. They promised a certain view aur no PLC, but now after booking, suddenly there's a 'view advantage charge' aur 'floor rise premium' showing up in the agreement! Matlab, pehle toh kuch nahi bola. This isn't just about the money (which is like ₹5-6 lakhs extra), it's the sheer dishonesty. I know what builders don't tell you, but this feels like a proper trap. Is this common practice now, even with big names like My Home Constructions? Should I push back hard or just suck it up? Has anyone faced similar hidden costs with pre-launch bookings in Financial District or Narsingi? What did you do?

Bhai, your experience is exactly why I'm so scared of pre-launch bookings. This 'view advantage' aur 'floor rise' drama is standard playbook for many builders, but My Home se toh expect nahi kiya tha. I heard similar stories about a project near Attapur where they added 'clubhouse membership' at the last minute. It's like they wait till you're fully invested to spring these surprises. Kya karein yaar, first-time buyers ki toh lag jaati hai.
Totally agree with
