Installments for plots also make it easier to maintain the same level of living standards buyers were having before.

Other areas of life that need funding will not suffer in this way. Most people buy an automobile after being a plot owner. The payment for this automobile is only possible if less is spent on the plot or is planned on installments. Otherwise, it becomes very difficult for the buyers or investors to pay for both properties.

  1. Better Money management

One of the many benefits of paying the seller in installments is that you get to manage your finances better. Buyers can then easily purchase plots without needing more savings. Even if you have savings for any other item, you should not use that money here. This is because using the funds that you have saved for a long time for something else, it would be difficult to put those funds back for the original purpose.

Many people prefer installments, as they can invest the extra money in short-term savings. They can easily earn profit from there and they can manage their funds better.

Cons of Installment payment plan:

  1. A period of money instability

Many buyers do not have the required funds for each installment, buyers feel very anxious as they have the stress of paying after every month and have no relaxation. The buyer needs to have the proper amount of payment to fund the installments too.

  1. Interest Rate

In some cases, an interest is added to the real original price of the plot. Each installment is based upon principle and interest. This is considered the extra funds people need to pay for their plot.

  1. Missed opportunities

The seller may resort to choosing the installment system as he knows that people can’t afford the full payment. So the seller chooses the installment payment plan so that his plot gets sold. This happens mostly when there is any defect in terms of plot surroundings etc. So the Buyer needs to be careful.

  1. Missed Installment

If the buyer misses any installment due to any reason, a fine is applied due to the missed payment. This is an additional payment which the buyer has to bear due to the lateness in payment of the original installment. The sellers do not want that the buyer to stop the payment and ask for a refund of already paid installments. So they try to give them relaxation that the buyers can restore the installment and give them different options.

  1. Delay in development:

Sometimes, there is a delay in the project due to a lack of payment of installments by the buyers or by neglectfulness of the developers. This kind of situation needs to be avoided by both parties for a peaceful contract.

  1. Fee for late payments:

There are certain fees and penalties that come with installment payments, especially if the payment is not done on the due date of payment. There are many reasons for the late payments but Buyers are given no further relaxations. Buyers are then caught off-guard after receive your statement with a huge amount you have to pay.

The plan needs to be followed as per plan otherwise it will become difficult for the buyers. The budget of the buyer is disturbed to a great in this extent.

  1. Emergencies

Emergency situations need savings individually. Buyers are already paying the installments every month. If they encounter any emergency, it would be quite difficult for them to pay for both. One Payment needs to be left out in this situation. We don’t know when we need to pay for an emergency and to have a reserve fund for such situations.
