One of the most asked questions in 2025 is: Should I buy an ongoing (under-construction) property or a ready-to-move one? Both come with benefits and risks. At Silver Bricks, we advise based on your timeline, budget, and goals. Here’s how to decide what’s best for you.

Builder Track Record Matters
Whether ongoing or ready, always check the builder’s history. Silver Bricks shares verified delivery records, site visit reports, and RERA links with all clients.
There’s no one-size-fits-all. But with the right insights and guidance, both options can be great. We don’t push projects — we walk with you until it feels right. That’s the Silver Bricks way.
