Pros and Cons of Renting in Sangalwadi
What you should know before moving
What's Great
- ✓Village-scale plots at well below city prices
- ✓Room to grow
What to Watch Out For
- *** ESTABLISH THE KRISHNA FLOOD LINE POSITION. *** The corporation sits on the KRISHNA-WARNA CONFLUENCE, and both rivers reached HISTORIC HIGH FLOOD LEVELS in August 2019. Sangli has flooded in 1853, 1856, 1914, 2005, 2006 and 2019 — this is a recurring pattern, not a one-off
- ESTABLISH WHETHER THE PLOT IS INSIDE THE GAOTHAN — a distinct tenure category
- GAOTHAN LAND IS EXCLUDED from the gunthewari route
- On agricultural-origin land, confirm NA (non-agricultural) permission was granted
- Establish SMKMC or panchayat jurisdiction for the specific property
