Lake View Address Plots Phase 3

Lake View Address Plots Phase 3 is at Gollahalli, off Veer Sandra Gollahalli Main Road, in the first phase of Electronic City, Bengaluru 560100, in the south of the city. The developer has not published distances to offices, schools or hospitals, so we do not quote any. The good news is that the phase is finished, so you can check everything in person.

If you work in Electronic City, start by timing the trip from the gate to your office at your usual hour. If you work further into the city, do the same drive and note where the traffic slows. Then time the return in the evening, since that is the trip that decides how much of your day you get back.

Plot buyers should look ahead too. You may live here for decades once your house is built, so look at the daily needs close by: the nearest supermarket, clinic and school. See how the approach road copes after rain and whether it is lit at night. Talk to owners who have already built and moved in, since they will know the realities of the location better than any map.

Lake View Address Plots Phase 3 has no floor plans, because you buy land and design your own house. The plots are either 30 x 50 ft, roughly 1,500 sq ft, or 60 x 40 ft, roughly 2,400 sq ft. The developer has sold both, so any plot you buy comes from an owner, at a price the owner sets.

Compare resale offers by rate per sq ft of plot area, and check how the position of each plot affects its value. Ask the local planning authority how many floors and what setbacks are allowed, since that decides how big a house you can build. Houses already standing on nearby plots are a useful guide.

A plot resale carries no GST, but stamp duty and registration are due on the sale value. The later cost of building is separate. Collect from the seller:

• The sale deed with plot dimensions and area
• The khata and latest property tax receipt
• A no-dues letter from the association
• The loan closure letter, if the plot was mortgaged
• Recent sale values in this phase, to compare

Lake View Address Plots Phase 3 does not show a published RERA number for this phase. If one is given to you, check it on the Karnataka RERA website (rera.karnataka.gov.in). For a plot in a completed layout, the land papers are what protect you, so focus on these:

• The conversion order for the land
• The approved layout plan showing your plot
• The release order covering the plot
• An encumbrance certificate for the seller's period of ownership
• The seller's sale deed and any earlier deeds
• The khata and latest tax receipt

Have a lawyer match the survey numbers across these papers and confirm that the plot carries no loan or dispute. If a structure is already built on the plot, ask for its sanctioned building plan too.

You then register the sale deed with the owner and move the khata into your name. Before you start building, get your own plan sanctioned, and keep every approval with your title papers for when you sell.

Lake View Address Plots Phase 3 has 54 plots inside a 40-acre layout. Ask for the plan and mark the plot you are considering. A plot close to the clubhouse or the courts will be livelier; one at the edge will be quieter. Any images are as planned by the developer, but the layout is complete, so walk it and compare.

Once your house is built, a day could start on the jogging track or in the gymnasium, followed by a swim in the clubhouse pool. The outdoor courts are there for an evening game, and the games room covers rainy days. Small errands are easier with retail spaces within the layout.

Children have their own play area and an activity area, and the landscaped gardens make for an easy evening walk. Family celebrations go to the party area, and the clubhouse is where neighbours meet. While you are still planning your build, the facilities may matter less. Ask whether you pay maintenance from the day you register, how much it is, and whether any special charges are planned for repairs.
