Builders in Chennai for Individual Houses & Villas

Hunter Property is a Chennai construction company that designs, gets approval for and builds individual houses, villas and small residential buildings. We work from four offices in the city, in Perambur, Sembiam, Royapettah and Kolathur, and build in every part of Chennai, from Thiruvottiyur in the north to Guduvanchery in the south.

You get one team for the whole job: architect, structural engineer, approval filing and site execution. The price is a fixed rate per square foot against a written specification with named brands, and you pay in stages as the work is completed.

What it costs to build a house in Chennai

These are our four construction packages. The rate covers the building itself, from foundation to finishing, to the specification listed for each package on our home page.

Built-up area, not plot area. Approval fees, soil testing, compound wall, sump and interiors are quoted separately. See the house construction cost guide for how the rate breaks down.

Why owners choose Hunter Property

• One contract, end to end. Design, structural drawings, plan approval and construction are handled by the same team, so nothing falls between consultants.
• A fixed, itemised rate. Every quote lists the brands and grades of cement, steel, tiles, electricals and plumbing, so two quotes can be compared line by line.
• Stage-wise payments. Each payment is tied to finished work in the construction agreement.
• Daily progress reports. Photos and updates from site every working day, so you can follow the build from anywhere.
• Local knowledge. Building in Velachery is a different job from building in Kolathur. Our area guides below explain what matters in each part of the city.

How we build your house

1. Site visit and consultation. An engineer visits your plot, checks access, road level and drainage, and talks through your requirements.
2. Document and plot check. We review the title, patta and layout approval before any design work. Our property legal team can help with verification.
3. Design and estimate. Floor plans, elevation and Vastu-compliant layouts, with an itemised estimate on your chosen package.
4. Plan approval. We file with the authority that covers your plot and follow it through to the permit.
5. Construction. Soil test, foundation, structure, masonry, plastering, waterproofing and finishes, with an engineer's check at every stage.
6. Handover. Final inspection with you, a snag list closed before handover, and the documents you need for utility connections.

Who approves a house plan in Chennai

The authority depends on where the plot is and how big the building is. Inside city limits most individual houses are approved by the Greater Chennai Corporation. Tambaram and Avadi have their own city municipal corporations. Larger buildings need approval from CMDA, and plots outside the metropolitan area fall under DTCP. Our CMDA approval guide explains the process step by step.
