The best plot is the square one followed by the rectangular one. The four sides of the plot should be towards the four main directions. A hexagon shaped plot (8 even sides) is also good.
The most important factor before choosing a land is its direction. While you plan to purchase a plot, prefer North-facing direction as it is considered highly auspicious. East and west facing plots can also be considered, however, south facing land should be completely avoided.
With the rise of smart homes and AI-driven real estate analytics, Vastu compliance is evolving to accommodate technology-friendly spaces. Experts recommend choosing plots that allow for seamless Wi-Fi connectivity, home automation setups, and minimal electromagnetic interference.
It is very important to have a look at the surroundings of your plot. First, one should ensure that no temple is present near the plot. There should be a good distance between the two. This is because temple carries negative energies of the followers.
Plots with ample sunlight, cross-ventilation, and proximity to green spaces not only enhance positive energy but also contribute to well-being. Additionally, solar panel installations and rainwater harvesting systems positioned in Vastu-compliant directions can further amplify prosperity and health benefits.
If the plot is rectangular, it is better that the longer sides run north to south rather than west to east. The best properties are either square or rectangular. If the plot is not a perfect rectangle, it is best if at least the southwest and southeast sides of the land are at 90º angles from one another. The southwest side of the quadrilateral should definitely not be extended past the southeast side, even if that means giving away a portion of the plot.
Land that extends past the northeast side of the quadrilateral, however, brings wealth, happiness, and good name. Land extending on the northeast side is very good. Extensions on any other side are inauspicious. Extensions of the northwest side will cause you to lose money and peace.
