Take immediate steps. Send legal notice for cheque bouncing, following file a case u/s 138, 142 NI Act. Secondly send legal notice demanding the entire money with interest and compensation, following file a complaint before District Consumer Forum and also file a suit for recovery of money. And also file a criminal case u/s 156(3) under Sec 406, 420 IPC for cheating. I hope, the builder will come to you and pay the money immediately.
