Skylark Mansion

Our current Skylark Mansion listing in Bangalore is a finished one: Skylark Royaume in Whitefield, in the city's east. Handover began in March 2019, so you are buying a completed home rather than a promise. The community covers about 7.5 acres and offers 1 BHK, 2 BHK and 3 BHK flats.

The developer is based in Bengaluru and has built in the city for decades. It says it takes up only land with clear titles and full approvals from the planning authorities. For Royaume, what matters now is how the building has held up since handover, and that you can see for yourself.

A completed project changes the checks you make. Ask for the occupancy certificate and the khata in the seller's name. Check the current maintenance charge and whether the residents' association has taken over. Look at the common areas, lifts and water supply in person. If you are buying a resale flat, confirm there is no pending loan on it.

Units have been listed from about Rs. 40 Lakhs, which makes Royaume a practical option for first-time buyers and small families who want a ready home in Whitefield. Investors after rental income may also consider the 1 BHK and 2 BHK units.
