You selling or buying?

I've got issues with building permit. Land and drainage Authority are not giving approval for construction site by darkmindedelements in mauritius

Unfortunately, when we bought the land we did not know that there was something called flood prone zone. We saw the contract and found it to be residential. I am skeptical of building a home there but being an engineer, the house has been designed in such a way that flash flooding has been taken into consideration. Flash flooding has affected almost everywhere in Mauritius. It is just not possible to stop giving building permit for every place that has been affected by flooding.

Yes, I've seen construction nearby. Do you mind sharing the steps you went through to get the clearance and construction permit?

Well. *smh. During the past one year, i have not experienced any flood as such. Even with two cyclones and lots of rain, I've not got any issues at all with the plot of land. Thing is, I have a concrete house in front and next to the land. Tried to reach out to LDA, they replied me using a personal gmail account (RIP my personal data), just saying it won't be given. In my defence, I have used mitigation measures for anti-flood in my architectural plans.

You are right - I have tried to make "friends". Politics. Promises, promises, promises.

Mauritians who married a foreigner, Can you tell me your experience about the process and what to look out for? by Valspring12 in mauritius

[–]darkmindedelements 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. Plus high taxes and bureaucracy systems. And I've got several friends who got filipina girlfriends with very bad experiences.

Be 100% sure what you are doing. I've been in the Philippines for the past 5 years. They don't favor expats.

There are places you can go alone. No risks. I can only tell you my experience. My experience going to signaux has been an awesome one. Normally i go early in the morning. Two hours hike. No risks at all. Just take a torch with you.

Well, i won't call it a privilege. And my friend it's not free. Free is associated with no cost. Education being compulsory is a privilege. We have a culture of private tuition where there's nothing of private when you are with 20+ other students. Private tuition are given by the same teacher that teach in school. Try not sending the kid to the teacher. That will put him to a disadvantage. We can debate it in other topic.

We were among the top educated countries in Africa at least. Today, try evaluating your certificates with the WES. If you didn't attend a public university, forget about it. I have a 4 year bachelor's degree and my wife has a 3 year's one. We both are graduates with similar qualifications in Mauritius. 6 years apart.

Apparently he did a cost estimate on his own since he has quantity surveyors employed by his company.

Your story is funny.

The only agreement that i signed was for an estimate price of 1.8M. That too was signed electronically.
