I recently heard that they are telling customers that they are giving less space outside(corridor 4.2 ft) so that they can give you more space inside, so I took my paper and pen and found that they are giving less than 69% carpet area. most of the people do not do the calculation and accept marketing team words. reality is they are giving less corridor to make more flats, even 100 EXTRA flats will give them profit. govt put restriction on FAR(FLOOR AREA RATIO), Govt say in this much land you can do max this much construction area.whether that area is used for corridor or for some more extra flats is up to builder.
Below is the calculation.(this calculation is for 1205.47 sqft flat)
1205.47 sqft is equal to 111991827.6 sqmm.(since Sobha specify area in MM hence I am doing calculation in MM)
kitchen= 7650000 sqmm
balcony= 8362800 sqmm
living= 25398000 sqmm
Bothy Toliet= 7200000 sqmm
kids Bedroom= 10404000 sqmm
master Bedroom= 14314000 sqmm
passage(1050x3600)= 3780000 sqmm
Total is 77108800 sqmm
1205.47 sqft is equal to 111991827.6 sqmm and 69% of it is 77274361.044 . means they are not giving even 69% carpet area and saying that we are giving less space outside so that we can give more space inside.
