We want to buy a flat in the next two years. Which year is better for me, 2027 or 2028? My Moon sign is Pisces.
Please share your birth date, time and place. I will check your dasha and which lords it touches, then where Jupiter moves from your Pisces Moon in 2027 and 2028. Prices and the loan are for your bank to judge.
Short answer
Astrologers look for the right time to buy property in the dasha of the 4th lord, which Phaladeepika links to new land and a new house, and in Jupiter's transit from your Moon. For the day itself, tradition prefers Uttarayana, mid-January to mid-July. A chart says nothing about prices or rates, so ask your bank. On Kismo, verified Vedic astrologers read your timing by chat or call, online from anywhere.
What are the key facts about buying property?
| Answer | |
|---|---|
| The situation | You can afford to buy and want to know which period your chart favours |
| What an astrologer reads | The 4th lord's dasha 1, Jupiter's transit from the Moon 2, then a muhurat 4 |
| Jupiter in 2027 | In Cancer, its exaltation sign, from 25 January to 25 June 2027 (calculated) 3 |
| Uttarayana windows | About 15 January to 16 July each year, 2027 to 2030 (calculated) |
| What it cannot tell | Prices, interest rates or whether a project is sound |
| Session on Kismo | From ₹15 a minute, 5 free minutes in the first session, online from anywhere in India and abroad |
What does an astrologer check to time a property purchase?
- The dasha of the 4th lord. Phaladeepika 20.5 links the 4th lord's dasha with vehicles, new land and a new house 1.
- The antardasha. Phaladeepika 20.29 says a sub-period lord gives the results of the house it occupies counted from the dasha lord 1.
- Jupiter's transit from the Moon. Phaladeepika 26.2 reads Jupiter as good in the 2nd, 5th, 7th, 9th and 11th from the Moon 2.
- Vedha, the blocking rule. Phaladeepika 26.7 says each good Jupiter house is spoiled if a planet sits in its paired vedha house 2.
- Jupiter's sign. Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra 3.49 makes Cancer Jupiter's exaltation sign 3.
What changes the right time to buy for each person?
- Your Moon sign. Jupiter's good houses are counted from the Moon, so the same month is a good transit for one sign and not for another 2.
- Your dasha. A 4th-lord or Jupiter period is read differently from a period of a planet in the 6th, 8th or 12th from the dasha lord 1.
- Whether you are buying or moving in. Signing, registration and griha pravesh can each get their own muhurat 4.
- Your money position. A favourable period does not change how much the bank will lend or what you can repay.
Where is Jupiter from 2026 to 2030?
Jupiter moves back and forth between signs in 2027 to 2030, so windows come in pieces. Calculated from public astronomical data with the open-source astronomia library, Lahiri sidereal, sampled daily.
| Dates | Jupiter's sign |
|---|---|
| 2 Nov 2026 to 24 Jan 2027 | Leo |
| 25 Jan 2027 to 25 Jun 2027 | Cancer (exaltation) |
| 26 Jun 2027 to 26 Nov 2027 | Leo |
| 27 Nov 2027 to 28 Feb 2028 | Virgo |
| 29 Feb 2028 to 23 Jul 2028 | Leo |
| 24 Jul 2028 to 25 Dec 2028 | Virgo |
| 26 Dec 2028 to 28 Mar 2029 | Libra |
| 29 Mar 2029 to 24 Aug 2029 | Virgo |
| 25 Aug 2029 to 24 Jan 2030 | Libra |
Jupiter's exaltation stretch in 2027 falls almost wholly inside that year's Uttarayana, 15 January to 16 July.
What do the classical texts say about timing a house purchase?
Phaladeepika gives the 4th lord's dasha as the period for property. Chapter 20, sloka 5, lists vehicles, new land, a new house and wealth in the dasha of the planet owning the 4th house 1. Sloka 29 narrows it by sub-period: the antardasha lord brings the results of the house it holds from the dasha lord 1.
Transits are judged from the Moon in Phaladeepika chapter 26. Sloka 2 reads Jupiter as good in the 2nd, 5th, 7th, 9th and 11th from the Moon, and sloka 7 cancels each good house when a planet occupies its vedha house, the 12th, 4th, 8th, 10th or 3rd 2.
For the day itself, B. V. Raman sets griha pravesh in Uttarayana with Jupiter and Venus strong 4. For buying land he wants Jupiter in a kendra or trikona of the moment's chart 4.
| Text | Rule | Used for |
|---|---|---|
| Phaladeepika 20.5 1 | 4th lord's dasha: new land, new house, vehicles | Which years |
| Phaladeepika 20.29 1 | Sub-period lord gives its house's results from the dasha lord | Which months |
| Phaladeepika 26.2 and 26.7 2 | Jupiter good in 2, 5, 7, 9, 11 from the Moon unless blocked by vedha | Which months |
| Raman, Muhurtha pp. 133-137 4 | Uttarayana, strong Jupiter and Venus, fixed rising sign | Which day |
When is Jupiter in a good house from my Moon sign until 2028?
Jupiter's good houses from your Moon sign, by Phaladeepika 26.2, fall on these dates until the end of 2028 2. Vedha and your dasha still apply.
| Moon sign | Jupiter in the 2nd, 5th, 7th, 9th or 11th from the Moon |

What do people get wrong about this?
Belief: Jupiter over my 4th house is the best time to buy a home.
Phaladeepika 26.2 does not list the 4th from the Moon among Jupiter's good houses; it names the 2nd, 5th, 7th, 9th and 11th 2. Some astrologers still read the 4th from the ascendant differently, so ask which they use.

- Every Kismo astrologer passes four steps: qualification review, panel interview, live audits of real sessions, 30-day probation.
- Nobody can guarantee an outcome. Treat any promise of a fixed result as a red flag.
- Never pay for an expensive puja or ritual under pressure. Get a second opinion first.
- On Kismo you only pay for the minutes you use; misconduct, pressure or a request for money outside the app is handled by a person.
Which astrologers can I talk to about buying property?

Questions people ask
What is the best time to buy property as per astrology in 2027?
There is no single best time for everyone in 2027; it depends on your Moon sign and dasha. Jupiter is in Cancer, its exaltation sign, from 25 January to 25 June 2027, which falls inside that year's Uttarayana. That window is a good Jupiter transit for Gemini, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces Moons by Phaladeepika's houses.
Which dasha is good for buying a house?
Phaladeepika links the dasha of the 4th lord with new land, a new house and vehicles. Many astrologers also read Jupiter's and Venus's periods for comfort and property, then narrow it with the antardasha. The dasha shows a favourable period in the chart, not a promise that a purchase happens.
Is it good to buy property in Rahu or Saturn mahadasha?
A Rahu or Saturn mahadasha does not rule out buying property in most astrologers' reading. They check where Rahu or Saturn sits, which houses it touches, and the antardasha lord's house counted from it, as Phaladeepika 20.29 describes. Bring the dates you have in mind so the astrologer can read those sub-periods.
Should I avoid buying property in kharmas or pitru paksha?
Many families avoid signing in kharmas or pitru paksha as a custom, and an astrologer will usually respect that. We found no rule on these periods in the Muhurtha text we opened, so treat it as family tradition. Practical dates, such as the registration slot and loan disbursal, often decide more.
Can astrology tell me if property prices will fall next year?
No, astrology cannot tell you where property prices or home-loan rates are going. A chart reading is about your own periods, not the market. For prices and rates, talk to your bank, a registered property adviser or a SEBI-registered financial adviser before you decide.
Where can I ask an astrologer which year to buy a house?
You can ask which year to buy a house on Kismo, where verified Vedic astrologers read your dasha and Jupiter's transit by chat or call. Kismo is an app where you talk to verified Vedic astrologers by chat or call, in 16 languages. After a session you get up to three suggestions for a second opinion.
What will I pay on Kismo to ask which year suits a home purchase?
A timing session on Kismo is billed at the astrologer's rate, from ₹15 a minute, per started minute from your wallet. The first session has 5 free minutes, no card needed, and the minimum top-up is ₹100. Bring your shortlist of dates so the session stays short.
Someone says I must buy a ₹21,000 bhoomi puja package before the right time comes. Should I?
No, a timing reading never needs a costly package first. Nobody can guarantee that a puja brings the right time or protects a purchase. If your family wants a bhoomi puja, choose it calmly and at a price you set. Get a second opinion before paying for any ritual.
