Casagrand Reva

Casagrand Reva stands in Pallavaram, a long-established residential part of south Chennai. The developer has not published a street address, a landmark or distances to offices, stations, schools or hospitals, so we do not quote any here. Ask Casagrand for the exact location of the site and a map pin before you go to see it.

Because the buildings are not finished, what you can test now is the neighbourhood. Drive from the site to your workplace at the hour you would really leave, and come back in the evening rush. If someone in the family commutes by train or bus, time that journey from the gate as well.

An older locality usually means shops, clinics and schools are already close by, but check that for yourself. Walk the streets around the site and note the nearest grocery, pharmacy and school bus stop. With 450 households eventually using the same approach road, ask how many gates are planned and where guests will park. Ask, too, whether any road or transit work nearby is expected during construction.

Casagrand Reva has six layouts, all measured as built-up area. The 2 BHKs are about 1,168 sq ft from Rs. 71 Lakhs and about 1,393 sq ft from Rs. 83 Lakhs. The 3 BHKs are about 1,618 sq ft from Rs. 95 Lakhs and about 1,889 sq ft from Rs. 1.10 Crore. The 4 BHKs are about 2,521 sq ft from Rs. 1.49 Crore and about 2,522 sq ft from Rs. 1.51 Crore. Carpet areas are not published.

That keeps every plan close to Rs. 5,800 to Rs. 6,100 per sq ft, so you are paying for space rather than a premium on any one size. These are starting prices. GST applies on an under-construction home, and stamp duty and registration are extra. Ask for the RERA carpet area of your plan, and a cost sheet that lists:

• Base rate and the area it is charged on
• Floor-rise and facing charges
• Car parking and bays included
• Clubhouse membership, if charged
• Maintenance and corpus deposits
• GST, stamp duty and registration

Casagrand Reva carries Tamil Nadu RERA registration TN/1/Building/0179/2025. Look it up on the TNRERA portal and check the promoter name, the land area of 5.01 acres and the declared completion date. Keep a copy of the entry with your booking papers.

While the homes are being built, ask for:

• The RERA certificate and the approved building plan
• Title documents for the land and a recent encumbrance certificate
• Planning permission from the local authority
• A draft agreement for sale with the handover date and delay penalty
• The payment schedule linked to construction stages

Have a property lawyer read the title and the agreement before you pay a booking amount. If you take a home loan, check that the bank has approved the project and that its valuation matches the agreement value. At handover, collect the completion or occupancy certificate, register the sale deed, and transfer the property tax and electricity accounts into your name.

Casagrand Reva fits 450 homes on 5.01 acres, in blocks of a basement, ground and 12 floors. The developer has not published an open-space share or the number of blocks, so ask for the sanctioned site plan and see how much ground remains between buildings. Pictures you are shown are renders as planned by the developer.

As planned, a morning could start on the yoga deck, then move to the gymnasium before work. Younger children have their own play area, and older ones can use the sports courts after school. Dog owners get a pet park, which saves the evening walk on a busy road.

Weekends can mean a film in the mini theatre or a slow walk through the landscaped gardens. The developer also describes a clubhouse of about 15,000 sq ft and a pool of about 7,800 sq ft. Ask whether the clubhouse and the pool are being built with the homes or later, and whether membership is part of the price or a separate charge after handover.
