Third-party handover audits for apartments

Property Buyers

Property buyers often find that the construction quality of an apartment is not up to scratch once they have moved in.

Common problems include uneven plastering, wall leakages, substandard flooring, faulty doors, window frames and grills, and inferior quality wiring and plumbing.

If you become aware of poor construction during your purchase, it is important to raise the issue with the seller or builder.

Real Estate Regulatory Authority

The Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA) is a regulatory body in India that aims to maintain transparency and accountability in the real estate sector.

RERA does not ensure the quality of buildings during construction, though it does offer construction audit and evaluation services.

The only way to test the quality of a building during construction is through independent construction audit and evaluation services.

Leading construction company

JENO Maran Builders is a leading construction company in Pondicherry, India.

It carries out third-party handover audits for its apartments, engaging a third-party quality auditor to identify and audit the quality of construction before handing over and submitting a report to the developer. The goal of the third-party handover audit is to ensure that the apartments are built with superior quality and that any defects identified are rectified before handing over the apartment to the buyer.

Audit Process

A complete audit of the structure is performed through visual checks.

Materials like electrical systems, elevators, and air conditioning systems must be inspected for their design specification compliances.

After the construction is complete, the auditor can facilitate assessing the building’s health by Ultrasonic Pulse Victory or NonDestructive Tests (NDT).

JENO maran Builders (P) Ltd was found to construct innovative landmark projects with uncompromising quality, and service.
