Things to know before buying plot property in Goa
If you are considering buying a plot property in Goa, you need to consider the following things: location, zoning, infrastructure title deeds, environmental considerations, and budget.
Location: Location is important when you are considering buying land in Goa. You must consider the property’s proximity to schools, hospitals, and amenities like shopping arcades, marts, or malls.
Zoning: Zoning of the property must be done. In Goa, different areas might have different zoning restrictions. Therefore it is necessary to know what is allowed and what is not in the plot.
Infrastructure: Consider the infrastructure of that area. Whether the plot is connected to necessary utilities or not or has access to electricity supply, water, and roads.
Title deeds: Make sure that the seller has a clear title to the land and that there are no disputes over ownership. It’s a good idea to have a legal expert review the land’s title deed.
Environmental considerations: Check whether the property sits in an environmentally sensitive area or has any environmental restrictions on development.
Pro Tips
Check the burial records of the church
You need to be extra careful while buying land in Goa. First, check the burial record of the land, as many land properties and estates belonged to Catholics in the past and when they were buried. Churches always keep records of the surviving members.
Engagement with locals
If you are buying a property in Goa, it is important to make a connection with locals. A group named “Comunidad,” a community of elders, knows everything related to property. Therefore, it is advised to connect with them to learn more about the property’s neighborhood, the surroundings, and the family history of the property’s previous owners.
Doing all these things can make you go crazy! Genuine Plots help you with these necessary steps and complete the buying process more accessible and convenient.
