An ideal developer assures the project quality, communicates clearly about convenient loan facilities, takes responsibility for project delay, and legal issues. Take this as a guide to pick an ideal developer and land for your dream home with minimum efforts.
1. Research – Visit their Websites:
Choosing the right property developer is purely a time taking and effortful process. But if you need a home that is built with high-quality, essential amenities and has no legal issues, that effort is required. So, start with researching who are the top real estate developers within your region and make a list. Browse for their official websites and check out what do they actually do, what is their quality of work, who are their partners, what are they promising, and finally verify if they match your budget. Also, make sure they have some good years of experience in the industry. The developers who are playing around in the industry for a long time are likely to be trusted than fresher or inexperienced ones. Moreover, experienced developers have portfolios so that you can evaluate their work and make a decision.
2. Step out and Meet Multiple Developers
It is crucial to visit the developers in real than talking to them on phones or meeting them virtually. So, plan your schedule and get ready to do some physical exercise. It is always better to step out and meet developers from your list in-person, that too in their workplace. So that you can understand more clearly what and how they work. If they fail in impressing you with either duration or quality or hesitate to promise any assurance, you can rule them out from your list. Thus you can know certain things beforehand if you test them in advance.
3. Talk with their Existing Customers
Though you talk to the developers directly, you cannot always believe their words. So, cross-check with their previous customers and existing owners about how those developers delivered the project and how well they extended their support to clients. Discover if there are any reviews posted by customers on different platforms. Reach them and ask for more details about the developers. Thus you could also build a relationship with the existing owners at the same time. During the process, if you notice the customer satisfaction is bad, you can simply ignore those developers or keep them as your last priority.
4. Discuss Pricing & other Charges
Talk to the developer about the pricing and payment plans, and do not hesitate to negotiate. Make sure the pricing, payment plans and other charges, on the whole, falls within your budget. Also, discuss the investment returns, ease of renting and nearby facilities before you make the decision. Investigate if the project is RERA approved, and has no legal issues to stand on the safe side.
5. Finally, Compare, Select & Proceed
So, you are done with vetting the developers on your list. It might be difficult to decide whom to choose if they are equally trustworthy. So, with the notes you have made, compare the factors such as quality, facilities, and budget. Select the one who stands top and meets your requirements and delivers your dream home within the committed time.
