Can I Buy LRS Approved Plot Beside Lake?

Hey Pal,

Can I buy LRS approved plot beside lake? This is a popular question as properties near lakes or other bodies of water are growing in popularity. But you should take a few safety measures before purchasing a house close to a water body.

Here is a list of things to consider before buying a property next to a body of water if you intend to do so: -

Yes, you can buy plots nearby the lake. However, you should consider these factors;

• Verify that the property is not located in the buffer zone first. A lake buffer zone is a region set aside for environmental protection surrounding a lake. In this area, construction is strictly forbidden. The lake buffer zone in Bengaluru extends 30 metres surrounding the water feature. Make sure the property does not fall inside the buffer zone before purchasing one close to a body of water!

• Second, make sure the property you intend to purchase is not located within 25 metres of either a stormwater drain or the Rajakaluve. Rajakaluves are channels that transport extra water into a body of water, particularly during heavy rains or floods. Any blockage of the stormwater drains causes serious issues with the drainage system of the city. Construction work is absolutely forbidden within Rajakaluve's 25-meter perimeter. Make sure the property of interest is not anywhere within this range by carefully checking.

• Thirdly, look to see if a watercourse is marked on your property or next to your survey number. If your property is next to a waterway or if there is a watercourse marked on your property, you will be in big trouble. You must maintain a 25-meter buffer zone from the watercourse's margin where such boundaries are discovered on or near a property. This implies that a buffer zone could be present on half of your land.

• Make sure the land is government or private before you buy it. Both have unique sets of rules and difficulties.

• It is simple to buy a property under the influence of promoters or real estate brokers and end yourself in legal difficulties later on. Therefore, it is always wise to use caution. Before buying a beachfront property, double-check the land records.

• Visit the revenue department's website and use the maps there to double-check the location of your property. If not, physically go to the department and ask the staff members your questions. Download the Dishaank app if you're short on time; it has plenty of information.
