Sobha One Residences Maintenance Charges

The maintenance charges at Sobha One Residences are based on the Super Built-Up Area (SBA) of each apartment. Since the project has large towers with up to 54 floors, these charges help manage many services in the community.

The fee covers lift service, 24/7 security, and cleaning of common areas. It also covers the care of parks and green spaces, which make up 65% of the project area.

Here is the monthly maintenance cost based on apartment size:

At the time of possession, Sobha also collects a one-time advance maintenance fee of ₹70–₹75 per sq. ft. The advance maintenance fee is collected to cover the first year's maintenance and facility management costs in the project.
