Uppal Marble Arch mein water supply ka issue normal hai kya?
Okay, I'll be honest — I completely underestimated how many things you need to check when buying a flat. We recently moved into Uppal Marble Arch, Chandigarh, aur honestly, water supply ka issue chal raha hai. Brochure mein toh 24/7 reliable supply ka promise tha, but abhi toh roz tankers aate hain. Matlab, itna premium pay kiya aur basic cheez bhi nahi mil rahi. My parents keep saying 'pehle sab check karna chahiye tha,' aur ab samajh nahi aa raha kya karein. Maintenance charges bhi itne high hain, but services ka level toh bilkul match nahi karta. Elevators bhi slow hain, aur agar kabhi fas jao toh maintenance response time bhi bahut poor hai. Is this normal in Chandigarh projects? Ya sirf humare saath hi aisa ho raha hai? Uppal Marble Arch residents, have you faced this too? Kya koi solution mila?

It's a classic case of expectation vs. reality in the Indian real estate market. Uppal Marble Arch was completed way back in 2016, so builder ki liability ab limited hogi. Most of these issues now fall under the purview of the RWA. You need to activate your RWA, get a professional audit of the water supply system, and then collectively demand solutions. Aajkal New Chandigarh mein bhi kafi projects aate hain, but wahan bhi builders ka record check karna bahut zaroori hai, especially for first-time buyers who are on a budget. Don't get swayed by fancy marketing.
This is really disheartening. Chandigarh mein toh prices already sky-high hain, upar se aisi issues. Original poster, kya koi legal action ka option nahi hai ya society khud se kuch nahi kar sakti? Itne units (168 total) hain, toh collective voice toh strong honi chahiye.
Consumer court ka process bahut lamba hota hai yaar. Aur maintenance charges toh society hi collect karti hai na? Agar society ka fund management theek nahi hai, toh phir yeh issues solve karna aur mushkil ho jaata hai.
Haan, exactly! Society ko active hona padega. Ideally, residents' welfare association (RWA) ko builder ke saath issue escalate karna chahiye. Agar builder nahi sunta, toh consumer court mein ja sakte ho. Collective complaint ka weightage zyada hota hai. Humare area mein bhi ek baar parking issue pe sab residents ne milke builder ko jhukaya tha.
My advice to all first-time buyers here: physical verification is key. Mere ek relative ne Mullanpur Garibdass mein ek project liya tha, builder ne 24/7 power backup ka promise kiya tha, but power cuts mein generator sirf 2-3 ghante chalta tha. Unhone toh pura society group bana ke builder pe case kiya tha. It takes years and a lot of effort. Don't rely just on brochures, talk to existing residents, visit multiple times at different hours, and check the society's financial health and maintenance records if possible.
Yeh sunkar toh aur darr lag raha hai. Hum bhi first-time buyer hain aur Uppal Marble Arch ko consider kar rahe the. Price range ₹4.5 Cr – ₹5.9 Cr hai, itni high price range mein bhi agar basic amenities nahi mil rahi toh kya fayda? My budget is already stretched, aur aisi hidden costs aur problems ka sunke toh lagta hai better hai rent pe hi reh lein.
RERA ki toh baat hi mat karo, ye project 2016-12-01 possession date ka hai, tab RERA act aaya hi nahi tha, toh 'Rera Not Applicable' dikhayega. Lekin Uppal ke baare mein toh kafi sunte rehte hain. Manimajra mein bhi ek project mein similar complaints thi paani aur maintenance ki. Builder ka reputation toh average hi hai, I'd say.
Haan yaar, yahi toh problem hai. Brochure mein sab chamakdar dikhate hain. RERA registered hai kya ye project? Wahan se kuch help mil sakti hai kya?
Totally agree with you! Humara bhi same budget constraint hai. Itna paisa lagane ke baad bhi agar water supply jaisi basic cheez mein compromise karna pade, toh it's a huge red flag. Maybe we should look at some newer projects in New Chandigarh?

Bhai, you are not alone! Uppal Marble Arch mein yeh water issue kaafi common hai, especially summers mein. Hum bhi yahi rehte hain aur same problem face kar rahe hain. It's frustrating.
