The land
CONTACT US
Make sure the land is definitely residential, not agricultural
or commercial. Customers have to rely on a vendor’s word
due to Mauritius’ lack of an established land registry. Here’s
what to look out for - there is little chance that the plot
is residential if it is located in the middle of a sugarcane
field. Consult the zoning plans which are kept in district
councils, for extra help.
The view Never underestimate the transportative powers
of a good view. Even if your home and its amenities are not
all that, a picturesque view can revive even the blandest of
abodes. When buying land, ensure the view is scenic and
promises to remain unobstructed after you invest in it.
Accessibility
Whether you’re looking to live at your property or monetize
on it, accessibility is key. Building your creative getaway in
the middle of nowhere may sound like a poetic dream, but
it could cost you big bucks. Contractors could charge a
premium rate to accommodate for travel costs.
Natural elements
If the land is located by the seaside, study its humidity and the tide situation. If it’s on
the outskirts of a bustling city, ensure there are decently constructed roads that lead
in and out of town. If you’re an avid home gardener, make sure the lot gets enough
natural light. Save on air-conditioning costs and invest in land that gets abundant
natural breeze. Pause to ponder the shape of the land and its incline. These factors
could affect your the design of your property. Keep your ears peeled for common
noise disturbances – the din of whizzing traffic, potentially erratic sounds of local
wildlife and birds, a noisy nightclub within the vicinity, the list goes on.
