Dear Sir/Madam,
We bought a property(villa) in a layout developed by Concorde Group, Bangalore. They handed over the villa 2 years late. The common amenities were/are incomplete & quality of the villa was extremely poor. Agreement says builder will charge Re.1 per sqft towards maintenance, but the builder started pushing bills at the rate of Rs.1.75. Residents started paying these maintence charges to get the major repair jobs in their villas done. We too have paid most of it & and are holding an amount for which we demand that they repair the seepage in 3 rooms.
Now a Residents Welfare Association has been legally formed & the layout maintenance has been taken over by the Association. But the Association too is helping Concorde to recover the unjustified maintenance arrears- with the argument that most residents have already paid & are insisting that the remaining residents have to pay.
Meanwhile, the builder is sending henchmen who dig road & cut water-supply. Since they had cut water supply number of times, we had given a police complaint. Police has advised the builder to send only reminders or legal notice, but not cut water supply. Still the builder threatens us that he will cut water supply. Kindly advise.
Thanks,
Usha A.
