Hi Marie,
I'm Glad to see your interest in buying a property in India, and you are relocating. Now the question is are you a foreign National with out an Indian Origin or are you a NRI. Now if u are a foreign national you can only buy a property and cannot own a land. I can give you a lot of advice on this if you want and guide you and i'm based in Chennai, providing this service for NRI's and Foreigners looking to buy property in India. I'm a Sole trader and its a family business and have been in this business for almost 35 years. I also provide errand services after the property is bought which gives my customers more comfort especially if they are foreigners. You can email me if you want to know more about chennai and Tamilnadu and i can help you. mail me at

Cheers
Daniel
