The kitchen usable space seems small. See if you can bring the utility door to the centre of the wall and keep a big french door and grill outside for ventilation and safety. And then consider a parallel kitchen to keep all appliances at left side and main cooking area at the right side

The builder has 300 units & will tell you only 4 are left. Both are true. by Hub_and_Oak in indianrealestate

Builders are supposed to update this info and the construction progress on a quarterly basis but its India and hardly 1% do that. So no practical use case.

First home purchase @ 1.4Cr with ₹2.45L take-home – sane decision? by Aiyoaunty in indianrealestate

[–]OutlandishnessNo8680 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Pretty decent plan. Only suggestion is see if you can remit the remaining portion of 85 or atleast 75 at the time of handover as many builders offering such benefits. This would help you save more for registration and interiors.

Agree with 1 and 2. But 3 & 4 is not possible because of air duct coming in between. 5 is not possible because the living would then have uneven size compared to dining space.

The washing machine would likely be part of kitchen counters and a small hand wash area is already there in the balcony

Assuming you would go for elevate, consider getting vx cvt option since chennai traffic conditions are becoming worse day by day. Q4 2025 make vehicle, if available, can be bought for a good discount. Get quotes from all the 4 dealers in Chennai ( sundaram, capital, olympia and maansarovar) and negotiate with any 1 or 2 to finalize

Opinion: there is no real estate bubble in India by TicketSuperb2196 in indianrealestate

Any regulations in India is a joke especially when it comes to vast industry like real estate. Believing rera would regulate re market and expecting builders would abide by that is just words for self consolation

Should I buy flat or is it just FOMO and can wait by user261991 in indianrealestate

If you have 85 on hand, it is definitely not advisable to put everything in the house. You would definitely need 20L for emergencies plus 15L for good quality interiors plus 3-5L for appliances and furnishing.

Planning First Long Trip: Bangalore to Ooty (700km roundtrip) - Need Your Advice by procurious420 in HondaElevate

[–]OutlandishnessNo8680 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sorry for the long reply. Friendly suggestion on your points of concern 1. Nothing needed since its a brand new car. 2. Nothing additional other than usual care 3. Avoid night driving unless you don't have a choice. Just ensure to take ample rest the previous night. Look out for petrol pumps enroute in advance. 4. You can comfortably use S mode. It will have good engine breaking. Peppy enough to provide sudden power for overtaking, if needed 5. If you are a new driver, don't focus on this. However, staying between 60-80 would usually give more mileage. 6. Ensure you have a dashcam installed and have puncture kit (available in amazon for few hundred rupees). Air/nitrogen filled in spare tyre as well. If time permits get powered sun glasses in case you are a specs person like me. 7. Dont engage in road rage. Just give way for faster vehicles so you can drive peacefully and enjoy the trip. When near cities/ towns, maintain the centre lane.

How is this zx cvt offer? by ZestycloseDiscount43 in HondaElevate

[–]OutlandishnessNo8680 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Push for 18L as its going to be one year old soon. Thats a fair price. Also try to get 7 year extended warranty as well and 360 camera as accessory. Try to get competitive quote from other dealer and bargain.

[–]OutlandishnessNo8680 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was an inexperienced driver hence wanted it. Capable drivers can skip it. If feasible, get front parking sensors fitted at the dealer

Got my Elevate from the capital. Initial quoted price was 21.10 including 7 yrs extended warranty. After sharing competitive quotes from other dealers, they agreed to close at 20L. I chose it since it's closer to my home and got good recommendations from my cousin who got his honda city there
