Vellayani lake properties advice

Everyone who has been to Kerala, has seen the beautifull backwater properties. Here in Kovalam we have backwater properties and land plots for sale, at Vellayani Lake behind Kovalam Junction. If you can imagine purchasing as a vacation property or an investment. It is a good idea to read the following tips

1/. Have a good look at Google earth/Map or a local map for the geography of the area, roads and lake crossings.

2/ Find out with the local and state authorities, if any projects are planned, geological surveys monitoring water depths, watershed runoff ect,ect...

3/.Check out the property, lake shore, and lake. Find out exactly where the boundry line is. Look for erosion on the beach and any water lines on shore, or trees, it can give you an idea of how much the lake rises in the monsoon season.

4/.Talk to the locals to find out about your land and the lake. When the lake rises, if any restrictions and covenants exist? What species of snakes are in the area. If you own a boat make sure the shore line and lake is deep enough to launch your boat from the property.

5/.Know what you want. Telling a Realtor what it is you want will ensure that you get just that. If you are looking for a secluded vacation home or something close to the fishing hot spots, a real estate agent will be familiar with the lake, area, and neighborhood. The chances are they will know exactly where to find what you are looking for.

Mr Parasu a real estate agent in Kovalam will gladly help you through the backwater home buying process. Talking with a him will help you get everything you want out of your investment.

  1. Hello Andrew,

    Nice blog.

    Thanks for posting the great video on the reef. The view of the beach is amazing.

    Myself an NRI surfing from california that happened to come across your blog.

    I see you and your friend Parasu specialize in the Kovalam area. Realize that the special knowledge of the area helps.

    At present, I am looking to deal an ancestrol land that is located in Kollam. The work involves getting a recommendation on the right course of action that leads to the sale of the land.

    If you know of someone that has a decent record and does business in the area, would appreciate that help.

    I see you are internet savvy. In your opinion, what is the best way to advertise a land for sale in Kerala, once the legal work is complete?

    Thanks,

    P.S. Recommend making the link to your profile more readable. It seems to be single line at present. It helps to build trust.
