Buyer guidance
Should You Buy a Danube Properties Project?
Danube Properties carries more risk than most developers we rate. If you are considering one of its projects, favour completed or nearly completed towers, check its debt and cash flow, or credit ratings and company filings if it is privately held, confirm the project's escrow account and RERA progress, and avoid large upfront payments.
Check before you book
- RERA registration and quarterly progress for the exact project and tower you are buying.
- Credit ratings and company filings, because Danube Properties is privately held and does not publish audited results.
- That 70% of buyer payments go into the project's separate escrow account, as RERA requires.
- Financial strength: check its debt and cash flow, or credit ratings and company filings if it is privately held.
