Review of Total Environment properties in Bangalore

Anyone who lives in a TE property or has evaluated them?

Why are they priced so high? Is the experience worth it?

If you have budget, go for it. Better than sobha, brigade, prestige. Small society with community living. Most of their buyers are end users and not investors. If you are in community of people buying 8-12cr property, you know the benefits.

Wow good review. I was looking at one of their lower end flats around 3.5 Cr in new development

The open area is really low. Around 25%

The floor plan is good. But the price is bit on the higher side. Also the builder has kept most of the units reserved to be sold at lager stage at premium.
In April 2023 the price was around 6200 per sqft today they are selling at 8200per sqft + other charges. If anyone of you have booked in JRC let me know the experience.

Overrated and unnecessarily costly. Look at other options.

Which other builder brand do you prefer?

Purva has decent projects. Sobha neopolis seems to be decent. I find prestige very commoditised.

How about maintenance? Anyone know about it. I had visited zed properties a few years back. He had more innovation and cheaper than total environment

Check youtube. I heard he folded after demonetisation. A pity really. I would pay a premium to him anyday.

Total is running short if funds. Close to bankruptcy. They are working on Pursuit if radical rhapsody past 9 years and is still not completed. They also operate in a Ponzi scam artificially blocking all flats/ units to investors which artificially jacksup the price

Do you have a source/link?

One of their Whitefield properties is almost fully booked with only a couple remaining (as per them) but a broker said that the investor flats (initially granted) are available at 10-20% discount. Its quite unusual for flats to get fully booked when the construction is only half complete.

Some one who works at Total actually told me. Yes, their whitefield property is booked since they launched :) but available through investors resell. These investors are nit alien but someone appointed n choosen by Total to create an artificial demand to jack their prices

For end users, once you experience TE, the rest of the Cat A apartments just feel like utility grade. If you appreciate the natural materials, quality of construction, craftsmanship then go for it. Look at their properties completed 15+ yrs ago. See how they aged. Huge downside - delayed construction (7yrs easily) cz they let u customize materials, layouts, flooring, furniture and electricals.

They are always delayed by few years so one has to be patient.

Had visited one of their under development properties, and was impressed. Had seen some other builders like Brigade, Nikoo, etc., but the quality and class of construction is a big level above them. Their customization options are crazy. They even offer a private garden for each unit, even though it's a flat. I don't know much about their marketing or operational tactics, but I feel if you have the money, TE is a very good purchase.
