A person requiring, selecting
and investing money in purchase of an immovable property either for his
self-occupation as house or for investment purpose or both, has to look into various
aspects involved in the purchase of an immovable property.
Location:
a)Civic amenities like park,
school, police station, temples, community hall, hospitals, auditorium, should
be available in that locality.
b)Better road facilities will
save more time to reach the place of work in time, though the location of the
residence is far off.
c)Generally, persons prefer to
spend more time in their residences for rest, sleep and family interactions after their work. The
location for the residential house should be free from air pollution and noise.Good environments including natural light and good ventilation will be an added
advantage for health point of view.
d)The residential area should
not be located on the main roads, high-ways, heavy traffic flow. It should not
be near the area of high tension wire.It should be preferably away from the railway line to avoid noise, away
from burial ground, graveyard, or burning ghat or cremation center. Besides,
the location should not be in any low lying area to avoid water logging and
inundation of water in case of torrential rains etc. Also, it should be away
from the lake, water tank, and drainage and sewage water storing areas.
e)The land should not be filled
up clay soil and not prone to land-sliding.
Availability of water supply, power supply, ground water and sanitary
line should be ensured.
f) Added to that, area
inhabited by decent, educated and cultured people would be gifted advantage.
Vaastu
Aspects:
Belief in vaastu concept varies
from person to person.Better select an
immovable property as per the Vaastu shastra.This may yield good resale value,
if decided later. Equally important is the selection of a rectangle or square
site and direction wise, better to
select North and East, as generally people do so.
Financial
aspects:
In the sky-rocketing real
estate price both in urban and suburban areas and mushroom growth of apartment
culture in and around cities, being sold at exorbitant price,nowadays, a
person may not afford to purchase a good property at a reasonable rate.It is always advisable to select a property
to suit their budget, otherwise they have to face a lot of problems and their
income will go to repayment of the principal and the interest only. Nowadays, Bank finance/loan is easily available
for long term i.e, 15 to 20 years subject to fulfilling their terms and
conditions.Instead of purchasing 30 x
40’ site with Ground + 2 upper floors, a person can purchase 60 ‘ x 40’ site
and construct only ground floor with further provisions to construct additional
floors suiting to their requirement and budget at later stage.
Instead of purchasing an
immovable property in an isolated area, it is better to select it in an area
having good road facility and public transport system which would be convenient
for up and down travelling to work’s spot and back home and also helpful for
the school going children. If you purchase a property in an isolated area, it
is dangerous to lead life.
Legal
requirements:
Buying a property with
complicated title is like ‘paying the money and buying an headache’. Any body offers a property at a cheaper rate
than a market value, you should be very careful.Generally,owner of property with complicated
title, either himself or through his agents/brokers pesters to buy his property
at a cheaper rate at short notice.It is
not advisable to purchase any property in a hurried manner.It is always better
to subject all the documents shown to rigorous scrutiny,verification and
seeking expert’s opinion to ensure marketable title of the immovable
property.In the process, proper and
reasonable time need to be given for legal scrutiny and opinion. Upon such
advices by Advocates, further efforts should be made to verify various records in
the concerned Government departments
Origin
of Property:
The origin of property,
continuous flow of the title and present status of the property should be
thoroughly checked.The services of an
Advocate who is having specialized knowledge and practical experience in the property matters should be sought. It is advisable to check up history of the property
at least for the past 50 years. It is also important to find out any minor
claims, court litigations, Government acquisition proceeding, Zonal regulations
and also other subsisting charges on the property.
Before entering into an
agreement, the purchaser has to verify all the original documents pertaining to
the title deed personally to make sure that immovable property is free from
mortgages through deposit of title or other charges created therein. The
deposit of title deed will not be reflected in the Encumbrance certificate.
Public
Notice:
The purchaser should act
according to the advice given by an experienced Advocate. If an Advocate
insists on Paper notification in a leading local News paper, the purchaser can
do so.However, this Paper notification
cannot guarantee any title on that property.In case,any body objects to such
purchase, such claims or objections will come to light before purchase of the
property, which may render a great help in taking further decisions.Obviously, it is the duty of the vendor of a property to settle such claims or objections if any before sale.
Further, a purchaser should
enterprise to make discrete inquiries and verify from the inhabitants of that
location and also neighbors about ownership of a property to be purchased.
Apart from verification of the main title deeds, scrutiny and verification of
the supporting documents like revenue records and other sanctioned plan/licenses
are also important in ascertaining title of the property.
Efforts
and results
Of course, purchasing a
property is time-consuming process involving various factors discussed above.
Do not simply believe in a Developers’ project presented in a colorful brochure
with glossy photographs and pictures with a lot of promises to be undertaken.Thoroughly check up the track record of the developers and verify successful
completion of their earlier projects.Do
not depend upon the Developer’s legal opinion sought from their Advocates and
you have to check up documents through your own Advocate.
Generally, a person may invest
once or twice to acquire immovable property.
In order to ensure risk-free and clean purchase, he has to put forth a
lot of efforts to acquire immovable property with good, clear and marketable title. Once the good location and good title of the property are selected, he
can live peacefully and comfortably.
