PropIQ buyer advisory — always check this prior to booking
1. Leverage their highly detailed client portals to request concrete cube testing logs of your specific wing. SP is one of the few builders that will share this layout data.
2. Double check the specific RERA possession timeline for your tower phase. Although SP is highly reliable, separate sub-wings occasionally carry different delivery targets.
