Property Selection Guidance

The cheapest Vastu consultation is the one you take before you sign. Have the options you are considering read side by side — entrance, facing, plot shape, layout and surroundings.

Fees depend on the property and the format, and are confirmed on the call — before you commit to anything.

Every correction Alok makes on an existing home is a correction somebody could have avoided by asking one question before signing. Property selection guidance exists for that moment: you have shortlisted two or three options, the broker is pushing for a decision, and you want to know what you would be taking on.

You share the plans and locations of what you are considering. Alok reads each one against the traditional scheme — the direction the entrance faces, the shape and slope of the plot, where water and services fall, how the internal layout sits in the zones, and what surrounds the building.

What you get back is a comparison, not a verdict dressed up as destiny. Some findings are easy to correct once you move in; others are structural and will stay with the property. Knowing which is which before you pay is the entire point.

Who it is for

Is this the right consultation for you?

  • Buyers choosing between two or three flats or houses
  • Anyone about to put down a token amount or sign an agreement
  • Families buying a plot to build on, where orientation decisions are permanent
  • Businesses comparing shops, offices or industrial sheds to lease
  • NRI and Gulf-based buyers purchasing in India without being able to visit
The analysis

What Alok looks at

Each point below is part of the traditional reading, and each one comes with the reasoning in your report.

01

Entrance direction and position

Which way the main door faces and where it falls along the frontage — for a built flat, usually the finding that matters most.

02

Plot shape, slope and levels

For land and independent houses: regularity of the plot, cut corners, extensions and the direction the land falls. These are permanent.

03

Internal layout in the zones

Where the kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms and staircase fall in the sixteen traditional zones, and which of those you could still change.

04

Water, drainage and services

Tanks, bathrooms, drainage, the lift shaft and the electrical room — the fixtures a buyer rarely looks at and cannot move later.

05

Surroundings and approach

The road, the buildings either side, what faces the entrance, and anything the tradition would flag about the immediate environment.

06

Fixed versus correctable

The most useful part of the exercise: an honest split between what you could correct after moving in and what you would be living with permanently.

How it works

From first call to follow-up

  1. 1

    Free 10-minute clarity call

    Tell Alok how many properties you are comparing and your timeline. He confirms what he needs and how fees work for your case.

  2. 2

    Send the options

    Floor plan and a Google Maps pin for each property, plus photos of the entrance and surroundings if you have been to see them.

  3. 3

    Each option read separately

    Every property is studied against the same traditional checks, so the comparison is like for like.

  4. 4

    Discussion session

    A video or phone session going through the options one by one, including what is fixed and what is correctable.

  5. 5

    Written comparison and follow-up

    A written summary of each property with the findings, and WhatsApp follow-up while you decide.

Because buying decisions move fast, tell Alok your deadline on the clarity call and he will say honestly whether it can be done in time.

What you receive

  • A reading of each shortlisted property against the same traditional checks
  • A clear comparison of the options you are considering
  • An honest split between findings that are correctable and findings that are permanent
  • A discussion session to go through the options together
  • A written summary of the findings
  • WhatsApp follow-up while you decide

What to keep ready

  • Floor plan for each property — a brochure plan or a photo of one is fine
  • A Google Maps pin or the full address for each
  • Photos of the entrance and the approach, if you have visited
  • Whether it is to live in, to let out, or to build on
  • Your decision deadline
Straight answers

What we will not do

  • No valuation, legal or title advice. Vastu says nothing about price, approvals, title or structural soundness — use a lawyer, a valuer and a structural engineer for those.
  • No "do not buy this" theatre. You get findings and reasoning; the decision is yours.
  • No fear-based pressure. A finding is reported with its reasoning, not used to push you towards or away from a purchase.
  • No guarantees. Vastu is a traditional belief system and outcomes vary.
Where you are now

Vastu at every stage of a space

There is no single right moment. There is only the moment you are in — and what can still be changed from there.

  1. 01

    Before you buy

    A plot or a flat can be compared against others while you still have a choice. Directions, shape, slope and surroundings are fixed once you sign.

  2. 02

    Before you build or renovate

    Drawings are cheap to change; walls are not. A layout read at the drawing stage avoids rework later in the build.

    While you live or work there

    For a home or office already in use, corrections work through placement, colour, light and how each room is used. Nothing is broken.

    Before a date is fixed

    A Gruha Pravesh, an opening or a shift already has a date in mind. Astrology is where that question belongs.

Questions

Property Selection frequently asked

Two or three is the useful range. Beyond that the comparison stops being a decision aid, and Alok will usually suggest you shortlist first.

Yes, and that is how most NRI and Gulf-based clients use it — from the plan, the location pin and photos. It is the normal format.

No, and it must not be treated that way. Title, approvals, encumbrances and structural safety are matters for a lawyer and a qualified engineer. This consultation is only about the traditional Vastu reading.

That is the usual result, and it is not a problem. Almost every property has something; the point is to know which findings you can correct after moving in and which are permanent.

Yes, and it is the best possible time. Orientation, entrance position and zoning set at the design stage are far easier than corrections later.

By the number of properties and their type. The fee is confirmed on the free clarity call before you commit.
