What should I check before buying a plot in Kerala?
Before buying a plot, verify the legal title, survey information, land classification, access, permitted use and physical suitability for your intended construction. A local property lawyer and survey professional should review the documents before purchase.
Important checks
- Original title deed and ownership chain
- Encumbrance certificate and latest tax records
- Survey sketch, boundaries and measurements
- Legal road access and frontage
- Land classification and building restrictions
- Water, electricity, drainage and site levels
- Applicable local authority rules and permits
Also visit the plot in person. Check flooding or waterlogging history, neighbouring boundaries and actual road conditions. Avoid relying solely on maps or verbal claims about future infrastructure.
