The Ultimate Barog Retirement Checklist

10 Steps to Your Perfect Himalayan Home

01

Understand Section 118

A common myth is that non-Himachalis cannot buy property here. Not true for apartments. While land purchase is restricted under Section 118 of the Tenancy and Land Reforms Act, buying an apartment in a registered project (like Harison Homes) is generally permitted for all Indian citizens. We handle all the paperwork to ensure a seamless title transfer.

02

The Health Audit: AQI Check

Your lungs are your biggest asset in retirement. Compare the data:

  • Delhi NCR Average AQI: 200-400+ (Hazardous)
  • Barog Valley Average AQI: 30-50 (Excellent)

Living here isn't just a lifestyle choice; it's a medical intervention that adds years to your life.

03

Financial Arbitrage

Sell high, buy low, live rich. Selling a depreciating apartment in a crowded metro can fund a luxurious, spacious home in Barog, with enough surplus to comfortably fund your retirement corpus. Maintain your city property as a rental while enjoying a lower cost of living in the hills.

04

Healthcare Proximity

Safety is non-negotiable. Barog offers the perfect balance of seclusion and access:

  • Solan Regional Hospital: 15 minutes away.
  • MMU Medical College: 20 minutes drive.
  • PGIMER Chandigarh (Tier-1): ~90 minutes via the new highway for specialized care.
05

Connectivity Check

The new 4-lane Chandigarh-Shimla Highway has transformed accessibility. The drive from Chandigarh is now a smooth 90-minute cruise. While you feel a world away in the pine forests, you are never cut off from urban necessities.

06

Internet & Remote Work

Retirement often means "semi-retirement" or consulting. Barog is fully wired with high-speed fiber-optic internet providers (JioFiber, Airtel Xstream), ensuring you can attend Zoom calls or stream 4K movies without a glitch. It's the ultimate Work-From-Mountain setup.

07

Weather Proofing

Barog winters are chilly but charming (2°C to 15°C), unlike the harsh freezing temperatures of higher altitudes like Manali. Summers are pleasant (15°C to 28°C), acting as a natural AC. Our homes are designed to maximize sunlight ("Dhoop")—the most critical amenity in the hills.

08

Community Profile

Who are your neighbors? Harison Homes is home to a curated community of retired defense officers, doctors, senior corporate executives, and authors. You're joining a like-minded tribe that values peace, nature, and intellectual company.

09

Harison Homes Standards

Trust but verify. We pride ourselves on transparency:

  • RERA Registered: HPRERASOL2024107/P
  • Build Quality: Earthquake-resistant RCC structures, moisture-resistant paints, and premium fittings designed for hill durability.
10

The 2-Day Trial Stay

Don't just take our word for it. We invite serious buyers for a 2-Day Trial Stay. Experience the morning sun, walk the pine trails, breathe the air, and sleep in the silence. It's the only way to know if Barog calls to your soul.
