Subha Villamor

Subha Villamor is located in Omkar Nagar, Iggalur, within the Surya City Phase 2 part of the Subha Ecocity township, pincode 562106. This is Chandapura, off Hosur Road at the city's southern fringe. The developer has not published distances to workplaces, schools or hospitals, so none are quoted here.

If you work in Electronic City, your commute is by road, and it is worth testing before you commit. Leave at your usual time on a weekday and note how long the drive takes. Then repeat it in the evening, when Hosur Road is at its busiest. For jobs further into the city, the drive along Hosur Road is longer, so try that route at peak hour as well.

You will find schools, hospitals and shops in and around Chandapura. Spend a weekday afternoon in the area to see which you would really use. Since the township is still being built, expect construction traffic for a while. Ask the developer when the internal roads and the entrance to your phase will be complete.

Subha Villamor prices start at Rs. 2.42 Crore across two plans, with sizes quoted as built-up area. The 3 BHK is about 2,431 sq ft and adds a family room, a courtyard and a terrace patio; it starts at Rs. 2.42 Crore. The 4 BHK, about 5,162 sq ft, keeps the family room and patio and adds a leisure loft; its price starts at Rs. 4.69 Crore.

That comes to about Rs. 10,000 per sq ft for the 3 BHK and about Rs. 9,100 for the 4 BHK. Carpet areas have not been published. In homes with courtyards and patios, ask how much of the quoted area is open space and how much is enclosed.

GST applies to under-construction homes. Stamp duty and registration are payable when you register. Ask for a cost sheet that sets out:

• Base price and the area it is charged on
• Carpet area, and courtyard and patio areas shown separately
• Parking, clubhouse membership and maintenance deposit
• GST as a separate line
• Stamp duty and registration
• The payment schedule linked to construction

Subha Villamor RERA registration number is the key approval to confirm before booking. Ask Subha Developers for it and search for the project on the Karnataka RERA portal, rera.karnataka.gov.in. The entry gives the declared completion date, the number of units filed and the plans submitted. Do not book until you have seen it.

Because you are buying before completion, your lawyer should check:

• RERA registration certificate
• Title documents for the land and an encumbrance certificate
• Order converting the land to residential use
• Sanctioned layout and building plans
• Draft agreement for sale, with the handover date and delay penalty
• Payment schedule tied to construction stages

A home loan from a large bank adds another check, since the bank reviews the project's papers before it lends. At handover, ask for the occupancy certificate and register the sale deed. Then transfer the khata into your name and pay the property tax from that year.

Living at Subha Villamor takes in a land parcel of 7.5 acres, though the unit count and the arrangement of blocks are not stated. Ask for the approved layout plan before you pick a home. Any images you see are the developer's plans, not a finished site.

Picture a morning on the jogging track or in the meditation and yoga zone, then a swim in the pool. The gym and the indoor games area are part of a clubhouse planned at 25,000 sq ft. Your own courtyard or terrace patio gives you open air without leaving home, which is the main draw of these plans.

Five outdoor sports courts cover evening games, and children have their own play area. The mini theatre suits a film night, while the open-air theatre can host larger gatherings. Party areas take birthdays and festivals, and the grounds are laid out as themed gardens. Since none of it is complete, ask which facilities will be ready at your handover and how the upkeep will be charged.
