Handover inspection for Prestige Falcon City
A large apartment township on Kanakapura Road in south Bangalore, built as multiple high-rise phases. We inspect units here independently, before you sign possession — 200+ checkpoints, thermal imaging included, and a snag report a builder’s site team can act on.

What matters most in a high-rise tower
Prestige Falcon City is a high rise development, and that changes where problems show up. These are the checks our engineers weight most heavily here.
- External façade and expansion joints — the commonest route for water into upper-floor flats.
- Window and balcony door seals, tested under spray, since wind-driven rain at height behaves nothing like it does at ground level.
- Plumbing stack pressure and drainage fall, which change materially with the height of the column above your unit.
- Common-area fire provisions: staircase pressurisation, sprinkler coverage, and whether the refuge floor is actually clear.
- Lift shaft finishing and door alignment on your floor.
- Thermal imaging across ceilings and shared walls to find moisture behind finished surfaces before it stains.
What we watch for in Kanakapura Road
Large phased township developments and plotted villa projects, overwhelmingly new construction.
Quality variance between phases
In big townships, later towers are often finished by different subcontractors. Never assume your unit matches the show flat — we inspect what you are actually buying.
Painting over unrepaired defects
Snags closed cosmetically just before handover. Thermal and moisture scanning shows what a fresh coat conceals.
Kitchen and utility plumbing terminations
Missing stop-cocks, unsupported pipework and untested outlet points are routine findings at first handover.
Amenity and common-area completion
Clubhouses and lifts promised at possession are frequently unfinished. Documenting the gap at handover protects your position.

Questions buyers at Prestige Falcon City ask
Can I get an inspection done at Prestige Falcon City before I take possession?
Yes. The best time is after the builder declares the unit ready but before you sign the possession documents, because outstanding items are far easier to get rectified while handover is still open. We inspect independently — we are not empanelled by any developer.
How long does an inspection at Prestige Falcon City take?
Most units take three to four hours on site depending on size, and the full report reaches you within 24 hours. For a flat in Kanakapura Road we usually schedule a single visit and one free re-inspection after the builder completes rectification.
Does the report work for raising snags with Prestige Group?
That is what it is built for. Every finding is photographed, located and written so a builder's site team can act on it, and the report includes a RERA Section 14(3) rectification letter you can send to the developer.
How much does a home inspection cost in Bangalore?
HomeGyan inspections start at ₹5,999 for new handover and resale properties, and ₹2,999 for an annual maintenance check. Most Bangalore inspection firms charge ₹8,000–₹20,000 for comparable scope. Thermal imaging and the RERA rectification letter are included at no extra cost, not billed as add-ons.
How long does the inspection take and when do I get the report?
A 2BHK apartment takes about 3 hours, a 3BHK or villa 4–5 hours. Your detailed PDF report — photographs, severity ratings and an AI-generated plain-English summary — is delivered within 24 hours of the site visit.
What does the inspection actually cover?
Over 200 checkpoints across structure, walls and ceilings, flooring, doors and windows, electrical systems, plumbing and drainage, waterproofing, kitchen and bathroom fit-out, balconies, and external areas. We use thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters to find defects that are not visible to the eye.
Inspect before you sign
Once possession is signed, getting the builder back is a negotiation. Before it, it is a snag list. Book a certified engineer for Prestige Falcon City from ₹5,999.
