In addition to large under-construction inventory, buyers can choose ready-to-move houses from a selection of high rise flats in gated community complexes or plotted housing developments.

There are several affordable homes for sale on the Dwarka Expressway. They can be bought under the Haryana government’s affordable housing scheme via Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY), wherein house buyers can avail interest subsidies. Lifestyle homes that are affordable yet render the best of amenities such as daycare facility, community centre, landscaped garden, children’s play area, jogging track, 24-hour power and water supply, and suitable shopping within the community along with free maintenance for five years.
