Shortlisting Homes That Truly Fit You

By now, we’ve had a deep conversation about your needs, budget, lifestyle, and preferences. The next step is where our expertise kicks in and it’s all about bringing clarity to your home search.

At Propsoch, we call this step the Longlist Call, it is a short, map-led session where we narrow the universe to homes that actually fit your life. Here’s what happens:

Why the Longlist Call Matters

  • Most wrong picks are wrong locations, not wrong buildings. We fix the location first.
  • Clear trade-offs beat endless browsing (brand vs. open space, main road vs. quieter approach, RTMI vs. under-construction).
  • You move from “everywhere” to a workable set worth visiting.
  • Time saved– no random site trips, more meaningful comparisons.

What Happens in the Longlist Call?

  • Map → neighborhood → project. We start macro and zoom in, so placement is obvious.
  • Anchor to your routes. We sanity-check work/school/home commutes at realistic hours.
  • Filter by location. Unsuitable corridors are dropped up front.
  • Street View, selectively. When approaching quality or streetscape matters, we show it.
  • Why it’s on the list. 2–3 fit-reasons per project, plus calm, honest watch-outs (with mitigations).
  • No fluff. No availability promises or vague “negotiation possible.” Floor plans appear only if they help a decision.

Behind the Scenes: Our Research Team at Work

  • We analyze 500+ RERA-approved projects across the city.
  • In just 48 hours, our advisory team filters out projects based on your requirements– location, amenities, builder track record, pricing, and more.
  • From this, we handpick a longlist of 10–12 properties that actually make sense for you.

What We Evaluate

  • Connectivity & neighborhood: arterial/feeder roads, metro proximity, upcoming infrastructure.
  • Builder credibility: delivery record, post-handover support.
  • Project DNA: open-space/unbuilt ratio, density, amenities quality, security, maintenance model.
  • Design & livability: layout efficiency, light/ventilation, privacy, likely views, acoustics.
  • Practicalities: parking logic, approach roads, civic networks, water reliability.
  • Your priorities: depth of Vastu, brand weightage, community scale, possession timeline.
  • Future-proofing: resale drivers and area trajectory. And more…

Spotting Red Flags You Might Miss

Even if a property looks great on paper, there are often hidden deal-breakers. Our research ensures you don’t get blindsided by things like:

  • Planned flyovers or High-Tension lines near tower lines.
  • Low-lying flood pathways and poor last-mile roads.
  • Utility adjacencies (STP/transformers) that affect comfort or resale.

What You’ll Walk Away With

✅ A focused longlist (~10–12) aligned to your brief.

✅ A marked map of considered and excluded corridors (with reasons).

Per-project notes: fit-reasons, sensible watch-outs, on-site validations.

✅ A shortlist (3–5) strong contenders ready for meaningful site visits.

(Quick Prep You Can Do)

  • Share pins for home / work / school (or nearby landmarks).
  • List places you’ve already visited with one-line “liked / didn’t like.”
  • Mark non-negotiables vs. trade-offs (e.g., deep Vastu vs. basic Vastu).
  • Confirm comfort budget and move-in window.
  • Tell us any hard no’s (specific corridors/issues).

What’s Next?

After the Longlist Call, we move to Site Walkthroughs, where you experience the top contenders in person and validate the details that matter most to you.
