Common buyer red flags
Unauthorised colonies
Layouts without LDA approval face demolition risk and no home loan. Always verify approval before token.
Agricultural land sold as plots
Requires land use change (LU) under UP Zamindari Abolition Act — most private layouts skip this step.
RERA number missing on hoardings
Section 3 of RERA mandates registration for projects over 500 sqm. Skip any project that hides it.
Inflated super built-up area
RERA now mandates carpet area disclosure. Compare carpet vs saleable before signing agreement.
Post-dated cheques for possession
Delayed-possession penalty must be part of the agreement — 2% above SBI MCLR per month is standard.
Frequently asked questions
Which Lucknow locality has the highest price appreciation?
Gomti Nagar Extension has delivered 14–18% annual appreciation over the last 4 years, followed by Sushant Golf City at 12–16%.
How do I check if a project is RERA approved in Lucknow?
Visit up-rera.in, click "Search Project" and enter the project name or RERA number. The listing shows promoter, approvals, completion date and complaints.
What is the difference between LDA approved and RERA registered?
LDA approval is layout/building plan sanction from the Lucknow Development Authority. RERA registration is a mandatory transparency filing under the Real Estate (Regulation) Act. Both are required.
Which is safer — under-construction or ready-to-move flats?
Ready-to-move eliminates delivery risk but costs 8–15% more. Under-construction offers construction-linked payment plans but only from RERA-registered developers with strong delivery track record.
