Assetz 22 & Crest

Assetz 22 & Crest is in Mahalakshmi Layout, inside the Yeshwanthpur Industrial Suburb in the north-west of Bengaluru, pincode 560022. This is an old, working part of the city rather than a fresh suburb. Yeshwanthpur's railway station is one of the city's main ones, and the metro serves the area as well, so a commute into the centre does not have to depend on a car.

If your work takes you along Tumkur Road or into Peenya's industrial belt, both are a road trip from the site. The developer has not published distances in kilometres or minutes to any office, station or school, so time the trip yourself at your usual hour. Do it once in the morning and once in the evening, because industrial-belt traffic behaves differently from IT-corridor traffic.

Everyday shopping, schools and hospitals are within Mahalakshmi Layout and the streets around it, which means most errands can be a short ride rather than a planned outing. With 197 homes and two towers on 1.79 acres, check how the cars leave the site at peak hours and how many parking bays your home includes. Walk the approach lane too; an industrial suburb can carry heavy vehicles at odd hours.

Assetz 22 & Crest offers two layouts, and both are three-bedroom homes; the sizes below are built-up areas. The two-bathroom 3 BHK measures roughly 1,518 sq ft and is priced from Rs. 2.58 Crore. The three-bathroom 3 BHK measures roughly 1,931 sq ft and is priced from Rs. 3.28 Crore. On either plan the rate comes to about Rs. 17,000 per sq ft, so the extra Rs. 70 Lakhs buys about 413 sq ft and a bathroom, not a different grade of home. Carpet areas have not been published; ask for them and for the loading between carpet and built-up.

Only starting prices are available, and in a 22-floor tower the floor and the facing move the number. Get a unit-wise quote for the exact flat you want. The project is complete, so no GST applies to the sale; stamp duty and registration charges apply in full on the agreed value.

Ask for a cost sheet that lists:

• Base price and the area it is charged on
• Floor-rise and any premium for the facing you choose
• Car parking, with the number of bays included
• Clubhouse fee, maintenance deposit and the first year's charge
• Stamp duty and registration on the full consideration
• Any transfer or possession charges due to the association

Assetz 22 & Crest has no RERA registration number published by the developer. Ask Assetz Property for it and check it on the Karnataka RERA website, rera.karnataka.gov.in, before you pay a booking amount. For a completed building the entry also tells you the declared completion date and whether the promoter's final filings are in.

Because handover started in September 2024, you are buying a finished home and the paperwork should reflect that. Ask to see:

• The occupancy certificate for your tower
• The sanctioned building plan with your flat marked on it
• The khata and the latest property tax receipt
• Title documents for the 1.79-acre parcel and an encumbrance certificate
• A draft sale deed, since a completed flat is conveyed by sale deed rather than an agreement to sell
• A no-dues letter from the developer or association for maintenance

If Assetz Property still holds the unit, the sale deed is executed with the developer and the khata is transferred to you after registration. If you are buying from an earlier purchaser, add that owner's registered sale deed and the association's no-objection letter to the list. Do not rely on a verbal assurance for any item above; each one is a document you can hold.

Assetz 22 & Crest has two 22-floor towers on a plot of 1.79 acres, with the shared facilities placed between and around them for 197 households. The developer has not published the share of ground left open, so ask for the site plan and see how much of the plot the towers occupy. The building is finished, so what you see on a visit is built, not a render.

A weekday could start with a lap in the swimming pool or a session in the gymnasium, then a loop of the jogging track before the heat builds. In the evening the sports courts take over for the active, while the reading lounge and games room give the rest of the family somewhere quiet or somewhere loud. Children have their own play area, and the landscaped gardens are where the towers meet.

Weekends bring the clubhouse into play. The spa, its sauna and its steam room are there for recovery, the amphitheatre for the society's events, and the multipurpose hall for birthdays that do not fit inside a flat. Handover started in September 2024, so ask the association which facilities are open and staffed today. Ask too what the monthly maintenance charge is and whether the clubhouse carries a separate membership fee.
