Flats in Malad West, Mumbai: What Buyers Should Check

Test the location in real life

Check routes to work, railway or metro access, schools, healthcare and shopping. Visit at peak and off-peak times where possible. Look at the approach road, street lighting, drainage, noise and parking around the property.

Compare the home itself

Review carpet area, room dimensions, storage, ventilation, natural light, floor, view and the placement of columns. If possible, inspect the exact unit rather than relying only on a sample flat or brochure.

Understand what the price includes

Ask for a written, itemised cost sheet. Confirm the base price, parking terms, taxes or statutory charges that apply, stamp duty, registration, maintenance deposits and any other stated fees. Avoid comparing two quotes until you know what each includes.

Verify project details and possession

Check MahaRERA registration and the project’s current record where applicable. Compare the registered possession date, agreement terms and actual construction progress. For completed buildings, ask for relevant occupancy documents and review maintenance and repair history.

Keep a clear paper trail

Save the brochure, cost sheet, payment schedule and written answers to your questions. Have a qualified property lawyer review the documents before signing or paying a token amount.
