if you are familiar with vastu shastra, you will check if the flat you are buying complies to the rules given by vastu shastra.

therefore, you must check if the factors given below are fulfilled before you can finalise the flat:

1. the layout of the plot
2. an orientation of the flat
3. the layout of the flat
4. common walls
5. the layout of the house

the plots that meet the conditions given below are considered to be excellent for building a house:

• a rectangular or square plot with road on all four sides.
• a plot between two roads with roads in the east and west direction.
• a plot that has roads on three sides.

however, if you want to buy a flat in a large residential complex, it is impossible to determine the exact plot on which the flat is built.

and, the tube wells, pump house, septic tank, drainage, parking, and so on are also applicable to the entire building and not just for your flat.

therefore, choose the flat in a building that is not on a curved road, and the building is either in the east-west or north-south direction.

if there is a large water body within the complex, the building should be in the south-west direction of the water body.

the other key factors to look out for are as follows:

1. there is more open space in the north and east than in the south and west direction.
2. the water source such as well, tube well and underground water tank is in the north-east direction of the building.
3. the garage is in the south-east or north-west corner.
4. the porch is in the north-east side of the building.
5. the septic tank is in the west or north-west direction.
6. the rainwater or any excess water must flow to the north, north-east, or west.
7. lawns, gardens and swimming pool are in the north, east or north-east direction.
8. plant trees in the west or south side of the plot.
9. the height of the guardroom near the gate is less than 7 ft.
