Metro Group has launched its uber-luxury residential project in Thane, The Presidential, featuring a first-of-its-kind Live Construction Tracker. This feature allows homebuyers to monitor the construction progress of their homes in real time—a first in India’s residential market.
With the Live Construction Tracker, buyers can log in to a platform that gives them up-to-date information on the build's progress, right down to verifying the materials used and the quality of construction.
This tool provides an unprecedented level of transparency, addressing a long-standing pain point in the real estate industry: the lack of visibility on construction timelines and quality during the buying process. This initiative marks a significant step in building consumer trust, as buyers often rely solely on periodic updates from developers, leaving them in the dark about the specifics.
Mahesh Gala, Chairman of Metro Group, emphasized the importance of this innovation, “With the Live Construction Tracker, we are empowering our customers to stay informed and involved at every stage of their home’s creation. Additionally, we are in advanced discussions with a leading institution to offer a Construction Quality Certification for The Presidential, ensuring the highest standards are met throughout the process. The Live Construction Tracker isn’t just a tool; it’s part of Metro Group’s larger strategy to lead the luxury real estate market in innovation and customer-centricity. This bold move comes as part of Metro Group’s Rs 3,500 crore investment in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), focusing on developing key areas like Thane and the Kalyan-Shil corridor.”
Metro Group’s introduction of the Live Construction Tracker is a significant shift for an industry where opacity has often been the norm, especially in luxury real estate. Moreover, the group’s discussions with a renowned institute to offer Construction Quality Certification will further assure buyers that their homes are built with the highest level of craftsmanship and materials. This certification will serve as a stamp of quality, validating that all construction stages meet rigorous standards.
