Hi All,


“Software Engineers and Doctors Housing Co-Operative Society” is a recognized society, approved & certified by Karnataka State Govt. I have joined as a member 2 years back. Society has stopped accepting the memberships for the last 1.5 years and now they started accepting the new memberships for a short period. I thought it would be useful for the folks who are interested in sites, apartments, villas and sending you this email. As of now they are concentrating on the sites and launched a new Project in Bangalore near Vishveswaraiah Layout(0.3 kms) and currently Bookings are open for the same. Site details can be found here http://www.seadhousing.com/oakdalegreens.html

Hi general.in
Who & when was this society started ?

Praveen.N

"Software Engineers and Doctors" thats a funny combination ! I can understand societies being open to professionals, but bracketing professions like doctors and software engineers together, that is some combo indeed. Are doctors the second largest group of professionals after software engineers in the city, or is it that they are "like" thinking ?

Hi general.in

are engineers and doctors working outside india eligible ? if yes, what is the process(for people having a relative in blore and for those totally new to blore)?

Thanks,

Hi

I have some doubts.

1. Does member has the choice of selecting the layout, plot ?

2. How transparently the society deal with the plot allotment ?

@Praveen.N , A group of software professionals , Doctors started this society and it was started in 2007 and got approval in 2008.

@Parkom, Originally the team who came up with the thought were software professionals, Soon after they realized that doctors also doesn't have any housing society of their own. Hence they decided to form the society for both Software professionals and Doctors. (On a personal note, i would love to have doctors in my neighbourhood. )

@Raghav, Yes, engineers and doctors outside are eligible. You can contact the society and get more details and regarding the same. For communication purposes, you need to have a local address in Karnataka(you might have to find one of your relative/friend who stays in Karnataka).


@MNRS, Member has choice of selecting layout, but not Plot. Plot selection is only possible *if* the society fixes any premium for corner sites, etc. Otherwise allotment will be done purely based on Seniority of membership/SiteApplication/Payments
