Real estate has become a popular investment avenue. Investment in plots continue to remain popular and rightly so, as land
is the only asset that has increased in value by over 800% in the last
20 years. The
best part is that the demand for land is ever-increasing and that there
is limited land on sale, which is certainly a positive point for all
those who are interested in investing in plots. However, lack of
transparency and tight regulations means buyers are making investment
decisions with limited understanding of the risks involved in parking
their hard-earned money in plots.
Buyer's Checklist
Buying land has become a risky business in Bangalore due to the number of instances of fake registration papers. Hence, it is essential to check under whose name the land is registered. Further, one must look out whether the house is stuck in litigation and the seller has sole ownership of the land with no other claimants.
Investing in land is not as simple as it may appear. To
begin with, there might be (and usually are) any number of legal
requirements to meet and procedures to follow before a piece of land
becomes a marketable item. Most buyers are aware of the difference
between the Agricultural and Non-Agricultural (NA) categories – one
cannot put in a development of any magnitude on agricultural land.
However, even if the land is clearly NA, one still needs clearance from
the local authorities to build on it. Furthermore, one should not purchase land without any idea of whether it
is included in some other developmental plan. For instance, the town
planning board may have scheduled a highway to run through it, or
allocated it to the building of some Government structure. If this is
the case, one may own a piece of land and still have no right to do
anything with it – including sell it.
