Sohna Reputed Test A: Quality concerns for investor ROI
My Sohna investment hunt for a 2BHK has really stalled this month. Looking at Reputed Test A, seems good on paper, but I'm worried about the ground reality. From my experience, construction quality often shows issues like seepage or fitting problems within a year. How's it holding up there? Affects resale value big time, right? Also, promised amenities versus what's delivered for tenant attraction... and then the actual maintenance charges for ghost facilities? Does it justify the premium? Need some honest opinions on these aspects for long-term ROI.

The whole Sohna market is tricky right now. Gurugram main market mein toh prices thode stable hain, but Sohna mein it depends heavily on the builder's reputation and actual delivery. Reputed Test A ke 40 units hain, toh society chhoti hogi. Aise mein maintenance ka burden bhi zyada hota hai agar builder support na kare. Long-term ROI ke liye sirf construction quality nahi, society management aur builder ka post-handover support bhi dekhna padta hai. Bahut risk hai, especially for first-time investors who are looking for rental income.
Speaking of amenities, I've seen so many projects where the gym is just a dusty room with two broken machines, or the 'clubhouse' is a single hall. And then they charge premium maintenance for these non-existent or sub-par facilities. For Reputed Test A, what's the ground reality for amenities? And how much are the maintenance charges per sqft? Does it align with what's actually available? For investor ROI, these hidden costs eat into profits big time, plus tenants will complain.
Has anyone actually taken possession yet? Or are the units still mostly empty?
Ghost amenities are a real thing. Brochure mein sab hota hai, site pe jaao toh bas construction waste milega. Happened with my friend in a project near Airport Road.
Maintenance charges for Reputed Test A were quoted around 3.5-4 Rs per sqft last I checked. For a 2BHK, that's a significant chunk monthly. And from what I heard, the 'clubhouse' is pretty basic, nothing fancy. Better to verify in person.
The project, Reputed Test A, is actually COMPLETED. The official possession date is 2024-12-01. Total units are 40. So it's not like it's stuck. But yes, quality post-possession is a big concern for any project, especially for first-time buyers like us.
Totally. Mere cousin ka project bhi 'completed' tha paper pe, but saalon lag gaye actual keys milne mein. Yeh builders bas RERA dates manage karte rehte hain.
Bhai, official date toh theek hai, but actual handover kab tak ho raha hai? Sometimes they drag it for months after the 'official' date.
Bhai, totally agree with your point about quality! Reputed Test A sounds good from far, but far from good? I've heard whispers about the builder cutting corners. My friend almost booked there but backed out because of the finishing issues he saw in a sample flat. Sohna mein itne options hain, why risk it with a project that might give headaches later?
Hmm, I heard Reputed Test A was supposed to be their flagship project in Sohna, so quality might be better? Any actual residents here who can confirm the issues? Warna toh sab suni-sunayi baatein hain.
I can vouch for this. Mera ek relative ne Badshahpur mein ek project liya tha isi builder ka (not Reputed Test A, but same group). Possession ke 6 mahine baad hi kitchen sink ke paas leakage shuru ho gayi. Amenities ka toh poocho hi mat, swimming pool banaya hi nahi, bas brochure mein tha. Resale mein value itni gir gayi ki ab woh bas loss mein nikalne ka soch rahe hain. Sohna mein bhi same pattern follow ho sakta hai, be very careful.
Exactly! Kya specific issues the unko? Seepage hi tha ya kuch aur? Bahut important hai ye details.
