Paper, land and what is around this land are three components of a truly successful investment. Whatever the purpose of the purchase, it is necessary to consider all factors so that you do not have problems using your new plot of land. Let's break down all the pitfalls in order. With our help, you will be able to weed out inappropriate objects, significantly save time and find what you are really looking for.
Start at the beginning: checking the documentation
Why solve the problem, if you can shift it on the shoulders of others? This is what unscrupulous land sellers often think when faced with errors in documentation, seizure of their properties and other problems. In fact, their behavior cannot even be called a fraud, because the seller is not deceiving you, but simply omitting important nuances, hoping for your inattention. In order not to become a victim of your own vice, start analyzing the documentation responsibly and with the help of experts. The experienced eye of a professional is trained to recognize mistakes at first glance. Before concluding the agreement, we advise you to check:
- cadastral number areas
- registration of property rights
- compliance of the data in these documents
- the presence of legal disputes, arrests and prohibitions regarding the land plot
- urban planning documentation, which will contain data on the intended purpose and the possibility of erecting certain structures
💡 Many sellers themselves may not be aware that mistakes were made in the State Cadastre and other documentation, so do not rush to put an end to your cooperation. Point to the error found. Perhaps their correction will not be a big problem, and soon you will still be able to become the owner of the object you like.
🚨 Many sellers themselves can guess that mistakes were made in the State Cadastre and other documentation, so do not rush to give them an advance instead of promises to quickly solve all problems.
Characteristics of the land plot
- Dimensions and boundaries
Can you imagine 1 hundred? And 10 acres or a whole hectare? All these dimensions will be empty words to you. If the site is not enclosed by a fence, it dissolves in its surroundings, and its visible boundaries blur beyond recognition. In such conditions, it is difficult to evaluate the possessions and understand whether they are suitable for your needs. In order to clearly understand where the proposed plot ends and neighboring lands begin, a demarcation procedure is carried out. According to its result, the owner must have boundary, cadastral and topographic plans in hand.
- Quality and suitability for your needs
The seller can resort to tricks and proudly show you only the most presentable part of his possessions, making swampiness and bumpiness unpleasant surprises. Flooded land and ravines are not the best place to build a house, but an excellent foundation for opening your own original business. It is best to know exactly what you are buying.
- The possibility of conducting communications
Even the most perfect plot will do you no good if it is cut off from civilization. A modern person cannot imagine his life without sewage, water supply, heating, electricity and the Internet. Sometimes, of course, it is nice to get out of the city with tents and remember the romance of student years, but it is unlikely that you intend to buy a whole hectare of land for this. Make sure you can connect all the communications you need without spending all your savings.
Speaking of untouched natural beauty, which is sometimes so lacking in the metropolis - you can combine the comfort of city amenities in your home with picturesque views and fresh air. . The settlements of the Kyiv region have real treasures - lakes, rivers and dense coniferous forests are located a few minutes' walk from many cottage towns and villages. You will be delighted with the possibilities that have opened up. Their quintessence can be found very close to the center - in Pushcha-Vodytsi forest.
💡 To solve all issues in one fell swoop, only one procedure will be enough - a detailed one mapping will help you clearly define the boundaries, features of the terrain and relief, as well as the possibility of connecting communications.
Local orientation: what, where and how to get there
You are not just buying a plot of land cut off from the world, but also the conditions that surround it. The comfort of your family or guests directly depends on them, if you decide to turn your purchase into a country house gothel for relaxation and retreat. Whatever your goal, it is important to consider the following aspects:
- the landscape of the site itself
- its surroundings are ecologically clean green areas or polluted industrial zones
- landscape painting - rivers and lakes, forests and fields
- the level of groundwater, due to which future structures can suffer from flooding, constant dampness and fungus
- availability of convenient transport connections with neighboring settlements and with the capital
- quality of access roads
- level of development of local infrastructure
💡 Neighbors are an important point that is often forgotten. Tempting individuals can completely spoil even the best impressions. Just as a small pebble disturbs you when it gets into your favorite pair of shoes, an angry neighbor can constantly call your eyes and pester you with ridiculous claims. It is better to get to know each other right away and try to establish contact, than to regret the purchase every day.
💡 And one more thing - after building a house, don't forget to legalize it. A self-built vehicle without proper registration and permits will forever remain a self-built vehicle. You cannot sell, give, or bequeath. As well as connecting communications.
