Each option trades certainty against price. Knowing what you give up helps you choose well.

Under construction

Prices and payment plans can be easier at the start, and you may pick your floor and unit. The risk is delay, so check the builder's record and the RERA registration.

Ready to move

You see exactly what you are buying and can move in soon. You usually pay more up front, but there is no waiting and no rent while you wait.

Our advice

Whichever you pick, verify approvals and read the agreement with a lawyer. We can compare options with you by budget and timeline.
