🏗️ What to Look for in a Commercial Plot vs Built Property

Choosing between a commercial plot and a built property depends on your investment goals.

Commercial Plot: What to Check

• Zoning Approval: Ensure it's officially designated for commercial use (C-1, C-2, etc.).
• Plot Accessibility: Is it easily reachable by road? Are utilities available?
• Size and Frontage: Wider front plots have better visibility and resale potential.
• Future Development Plans: Look into area master plans to see what’s coming nearby (e.g. malls, highways).

Built Property: What to Check

• Construction Quality: Inspect the structure, flooring, electrical, and plumbing systems.
• Rental History: Ask for current leases or occupancy status—this helps evaluate ROI.
• Maintenance Costs: Older buildings may require repairs and higher upkeep.
• Design Layout: Open floor plans are usually more flexible and attractive to tenants.

If you want faster income with less hassle, go with a built property. For long-term capital appreciation, a plot can be ideal.
