Booking a home is a big step. Before you pay any money, it is smart to check a few important documents. These papers tell you whether the project is legally approved, what exactly you are buying, and what the builder has promised. For Godrej Eternal Palms in Sanpada, Navi Mumbai, here is a simple list of documents you should look at before booking. Think of it like checking the label before buying something important — it keeps you safe.
1. The RERA Registration Number
This is the most important document to check first. Every large project in Maharashtra must be registered with MahaRERA. Godrej Eternal Palms is registered under the number PM1330002500429. You can go to the official MahaRERA website and search for this number. On the site, you will see the project details, the approved plans, and the promised completion date. Always verify this yourself — do not just take the salesperson's word for it.
2. The Sanctioned Plans and Layout
RERA requires the builder to upload the approved building plans. These plans show how many floors the towers have, where the flats are on each floor, and what the common areas look like. Check that the plan matches what you are being shown. For Godrej Eternal Palms, the plans should show the two 37-storey towers and the layout of the 2 BHK and 3 BHK homes. This helps you confirm you are getting the home you think you are getting.
3. The Cost Sheet (Full Price Breakdown)
The price you see in an advertisement is often just the starting price. It does not include many extra charges. Ask for a detailed cost sheet before you pay anything. This sheet should list the base price, floor rise charges (if your flat is on a higher floor), parking charges, clubhouse membership, GST, stamp duty and registration fees. The starting price for a 2 BHK at Godrej Eternal Palms is around ₹3.11 Cr, but the final amount will be higher once these costs are added. Knowing the full amount helps you plan your budget without surprises.
4. The Sale Agreement
This is the legal contract between you and the builder. It is a long document, but you must read it carefully. Check three things: the exact flat number and carpet area, the possession date, and the payment schedule. The carpet area is the actual usable floor space inside your home. For the 2 BHK at Godrej Eternal Palms, the carpet area is 809 sq. ft. Make sure the agreement matches this. Also check what happens if the project is delayed — the agreement should mention compensation. Under MahaRERA, builders must pay interest for delays.
5. The Title and Land Documents
These documents prove that the builder has the legal right to build on the land. You do not need to read every page yourself, but you should ask the builder to show that the land title is clear and there are no legal disputes. Many banks also check these documents before approving home loans. If a bank is willing to lend money for the project, it means the paperwork has passed a legal check. You can ask which banks have approved Godrej Eternal Palms for home loans.
