First-time buyers in Amaravati: how to buy one plot well
Most first-time buyers ask which village to buy in. A better first question is which unit. The best question is which papers the seller can show you today.

A simple plan, in order
- Fix your total budget. Then set aside about 7.5% of it for stamp duty, transfer duty and registration, plus the lawyer and the documents.
- Choose a village for a reason you can say out loud, such as a campus, a court, a road or a town. Read its village page.
- Before you visit, ask for the unit, the plot number, the final allotment certificate and the registered deed.
- Visit with the GIS layout open. Look at the street, not only the plot.
- Get an EC and a written title opinion.
- Register at the sub-registrar office, then apply for mutation.
Five mistakes first-time buyers make
- Paying token money before seeing the final certificate.
- Buying on a GPA.
- Believing "near the airport".
- Assuming a commercial plot can be used as a residential one.
- Borrowing money on the hope that prices will rise.
