Just imagine you’re standing inside a beautifully decorated sample flat. Soft lights. Fresh fragrance. Perfect furniture. For a moment, everything feels right.
But in the back of your mind, a small voice whispers:
“Am I making the right decision?”
Everyone goes through this feeling. Because buying a home is not just a transaction — it’s an emotional milestone. And confusion during this process is completely normal.
That’s why YOU and I are going to walk through an 11-step checklist that makes everything clear, simple, and stress-free.
This is the same process we use at Euphorica — not to sell, but to help you decide confidently.
Let’s begin your clarity journey. ?
Quick Summary
RERA → Builder → Location → Future Infra → Layout → Construction → Price → Legal → Livability → Rental Value → Risk
If you understand these 11 points, nobody can misguide you.
1. RERA Status — Start Here (Always)
Quick Answer: RERA approval tells you whether the project is legally registered and safe to consider.
Tip: Always check tower-wise RERA — not just the project name.
(Because nothing else matters if this isn’t clear, right?)
Before you step into a sample flat, pause for 10 seconds and ask:
? “Is this project RERA-approved?”
This tells you:
- Whether the builder is following rules
- Possession date committed
- Whether YOUR tower is officially approved
2. Builder History — Past Performance Never Lies
Quick Answer: A builder’s past delivery record predicts your future experience.
Tip: Visit at least ONE old delivered project of the same builder.
Imagine buying a phone from a brand known for delays — you’d hesitate, right?
Same logic for builders.
What YOU should check:
- Number of projects delivered
- Were they on time?
- Resident reviews
- Maintenance quality
While YOU check the basics, we dig deeper — disputes, delays, structural concerns.
3. Location — Not the Map, But the Feel
Quick Answer: Location decides daily comfort, safety, and long-term value.
Tip: Visit the location once in the day and once after 8 PM.
Google Maps shows distance — not vibe.
Observe:
- Safety at night
- Approach road quality
- Real walking distance to shops
- Traffic during busy hours
- Cleanliness & noise
When we check locations, we visit at odd hours too — because areas feel different at night.
4. Future Infrastructure — The Real Price Booster
Quick Answer: Properties near confirmed infra grow faster in value.
Tip: Check whether the infra is approved, not just “proposed.”
You’ve heard it many times — metro coming, airport coming.
But YOU must separate:
- Approved
- Under construction
- Only promised on paper
5. Layout & Usability — Not All 2BHKs Are Equal
Quick Answer: A good layout feels larger and more comfortable even if size is smaller.
Tip: Always check layout WITHOUT furniture — it shows real space.
A beautiful brochure means nothing if daily usability is poor.
Check:
- Room sizes
- Balcony usability
- Ventilation
- Sunlight
- No wasted space
Sometimes a smart 2BHK beats a poorly designed 3BHK.
6. Construction Quality — Brochures Can’t Show This
Quick Answer: Real construction quality is seen on-site, not in brochures.
Tip: Knock lightly on walls — hollow sound = poor quality.
Sample flats are designed to impress.
Check on site:
- Doors & frames
- Tile finishing
- Electrical fittings
- Plaster & paint
Meanwhile, we examine structural integrity & waterproofing.
7. Price Breakdown — Rate Per Sq Ft Means Nothing
Quick Answer: Final price = base price + floor rise + PLC + parking + GST + registry.
Tip: Ask for an all-inclusive quote upfront.
Everyone gets shocked at the final number at least once.
Calculate:
- Base price
- PLC
- Floor rise
- Parking
- Club
- GST
- Registry charges
8. Legal Check — Peace Starts Here
Quick Answer: A legally clear project avoids loan, registry, and ownership issues later.
Tip: If banks hesitate to give loans, YOU should hesitate too.
Verify:
- Title documents
- Approval plans
- NOCs
- Land ownership
9. Livability — Can You Actually Live Here Happily?
Quick Answer: Livability matters more than amenities.
Tip: Visit the society on a Sunday — the truest picture.
Check:
- Green area
- Openness
- Convenience stores
- Safety
- Parking ease
10. Rental & Resale Potential — For Smart Investors
Quick Answer: A good investment depends on tenant demand & resale liquidity.
Tip: Projects near job hubs rent faster.
Check:
- Rental demand
- Expected rent
- Tenant profile
- Resale ease
11. Risk Level — Your Peace Matters More Than the Deal
Quick Answer: A good property should fit your budget, risk level, and long-term comfort.
Tip: If EMI feels heavy on Day 1, it will feel heavier later.
Ask yourself:
- Is EMI comfortable?
- Is builder stable?
- Is the project progressing on time?
Sometimes waiting is the wisest choice.
