Living with the Queen, Ooty

Why property in Ooty?

Life in Ooty is like living in a Queen’s house, where everything will make you feel better compared to life in plains that drains your energy and will, with the heat and stress. The situation in the plains will make you uncomfortable with its high temperature.

Wanting Peace in Heights

The mesmerizing view of the tea plantations, the fragrance of spices and tea will keep your mind fresh. While in Ooty, you can’t miss a cup of Masala Chai that fills you up with enthusiasm and keeps you refreshed for the whole day. How could I forget about the train which I came to Ooty for the first time Mettupalayam to Ooty. The beauty of the hills and the insane view from the train, running at such a height was thrilling and such a treat to the eyes. The height of the hill is 2240 m and it is above the sea level, 86 km north of Coimbatore and 128 km south of Mysore where it is near to the Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. The highest and lowest temperature in summer: 23 to 10 °C, the highest and lowest temperature in winter: 15 to 5 °C. The normal temperature in plains is 30 o C and above. The sceneries are something that you cannot find elsewhere – Green, with a little sprinkle of the other colors in the palette with which Nature has painted this beautiful place. Anybody that travels to Ooty, would grow reluctant to leave the place. If only there was a way to stay there permanently...

Buying property in India isn’t a piece of cake. This is a congested market and making the right choices might be difficult with the amount of assorted options available. Also, the cities aren’t a peaceful place to enjoy a nice quiet vacation, or a peaceful retirement too.

The value of real estate in India, is seeing more depreciation, than appreciation, all thanks to the current economic depression. In simple words, a dingy apartment in a crowded city isn’t worth the time and investment.

That’s it – everything that was to be said, has been said. Real estate in the plains is not worth it anymore. 

Wait – Real estate in the PLAINS?

Yes! Plains! It’s not really worth it – especially for an NRI. Then? Which type of real estate could be ideal? 

H-I-L-L S-T-A-T-I-O-N PROPERTY!

 Hill stations are the most beautiful places on earth and India isn’t to scarce of them. There are various beautiful Hill stations in India, such as Shimla, Mussourie, Darjeeling, Ooty, Kodaikanal, Coorg, Munnar, Gudalur, Nilgiris, Kolli Hills, etc. that you could take a vacation at. 

How can hill station property be the ideal choice of real estate for an NRI? 

i.                High Demand, High value

Hill station properties and space is in high demand, because, the Hill Station real estate laws are stringent and the space available is low. There are many complications and complexities in buying or constructing property on the hill terrain. Thus Hill Station property are always of high value and regard in the real estate domain, and would definitely fetch good appreciation of capital.

ii.              Gives you a high and mighty status in society.

Because of the rarity of people owning hill station property, the beauty of the hills and the high demand and value of property in hill stations, being an owner of one would give you a high, royal and classy status in the society. 

iii.             Revenue through Rental

The world, with its fast pace is becoming stressful to many and going on a vacation would definitely help in rejuvenating. This is known by many nowadays, and thus there are better and higher opportunities to rent out your hill station home to tourists and vacationers. This brings us to the next point.

iv.              A great place to spend a peaceful vacation

While Yoga, meditation can relieve stress, a nice calm break from the speed and the stress would rejuvenate – rejuvenation is always better than just relief. Hill stations are thus an ideal choice for a rejuvenatingvacation, with its closeness to nature, the cool climate and the pristine views and water bodies – Our minds cool as we read this, don’t they? 

v.               Retire to peace, at your motherland.

NRI’s lead stressful lives, living at one country, traveling back and forth to their homeland and such, and thus they deserve a peaceful retirement home, in their motherland. One might very well live in a peaceful hill station abode, rather than stressing out at the plains. 

A home in the hills surely does have its own benefits, that would be the best to an NRI’s interest, but being able to buy one at ease, by oneself is going to be a near impossible task - for instance property buying in Ooty, or any other hill station, is restricted by local laws and land and construction complexities.
