Vivacity Viva City: Carpet Area Ka Sach?
Been tracking Vivacity Viva City for a few months now, but buying for myself is totally different than for clients. Everyone glorifies its 'affordable' tag, but is it genuinely a good home? I know the super area vs carpet area games builders play, and honestly, Vivacity ka 2BHK layout kitna efficient hai? Lagta hai bas paper pe achha hai, actual usable space mein compromises hain... Okay, I'll say what no one says: is the carpet area ratio worth that price range (₹34.81 L–₹56.64 L)? And what about maintenance? Builders quote one thing, but off the record, what are residents *actually* paying monthly? Plus, society ka vibe kaisa hai? Friendly ya isolated? Change my mind if I'm wrong, but I'm struggling to see the real livability here.

Society ka vibe bahut
Maintenance ka point bahut valid hai OP. My friend bought a flat in Ajayabpur last year. Builder ne ₹2.5/sqft bola tha, but after a year, society management ne ₹3.5/sqft kar diya, citing rising costs and amenities. Vivacity mein bhi mujhe yahi darr hai. Agar ₹35-57L mein ghar le rahe hain, toh uske upar monthly ₹4-5K maintenance aur add ho jayega. Plus, sometimes societies have huge one-time charges for sinking fund or something similar. Is Vivacity ka residents' welfare association (RWA) strong hai kya, jo builder se negotiate kar sake?
U7, I heard Vivacity's maintenance is around ₹2.8-3/sqft currently. It's not too bad, but yes, it can always increase. The RWA is quite active from what I've gathered online, they do conduct events.
Maintenance toh sabse bada headache hai. Builder bolta kuch hai, hota kuch aur hai.
Bhai, Vivacity Viva City toh 2018 mein hi COMPLETED ho chuka hai aur possession bhi mil chuka hai (April 2018). RERA number bhi UPRERAPRJ14841 hai. Aap abhi tak track kar rahe ho ya recently visit kiya? I'm confused why you're asking if it's genuinely a good home *now*. Residents toh already reh rahe hain wahan. Maybe we should ask them directly instead of guessing about carpet area efficiency. My cousin lives in a project near Alpha I, Greater Noida, and wahan bhi carpet area ko leke bahut issues the initially, but now it's settled.
Sahi baat hai U5. Aur abhi Noida mein market conditions kaisi hain? Kya is price range mein better options hain ya yahi best hai?
U4, I think OP means ki ab tak jo reviews ya builder ki marketing thi, usse alag, real resident experience kya hai. Completed toh hai, par uske baad ki kahani kya hai, that's the real question for first-time buyers like us. Abhi bhi bahut log hain jo secondary market mein ya resales mein dekh rahe hain isko.
Totally agree with you, OP! Vivacity Viva City ka naam hi itna grand hai, par jab actual site visit kiya toh carpet area kaafi cramped laga. Especially for a 2BHK, it felt like they've cut corners to fit it in the 'affordable' bracket. Meri bhi yahi tension hai, budget mein toh aa raha hai, par kya woh 'livable' bhi hoga? Maintenance ka toh sabse bada darr hai, hidden charges bahut hote hain.
Exactly! Usable space ki baat hi alag hai. Par Society ka vibe kaisa laga aapko? Kabhi gaye ho wahan weekend pe? Mujhe family ke liye chahiye, toh neighbours ka friendly hona important hai.
Haan bhai, sahi pakde ho. Paper pe sab mast lagta hai, but real space mein 'compromises' dikhte hain. Main bhi budget mein hi dekh raha hu.
