There are land lots which provide the perfect location for a Vastu home, according to Vastu expert Monica Bakshi.
Universal Truth: planning for cities and towns is often organized in a grid created by streets bounding square or rectangular shaped land lots.
Fortunately, the perfect Vastu home site is square in shape, with a second choice being a rectangle with a maximum ratio of 2:1; the shape of two equal sized square sites side-by-side. Plenty of imaginative theories for why sites of other shapes aren't ideal are prevalent in the study of Vastu. However; even if your site is less than perfect, with a little ingenuity you may still be in luck. Vastu design remedies abound for these less-than-ideal sites. For example, a very long, thin site may be sectioned off into a buildable rectangular area that has a ratio of 2:1, with separate planting areas in front or behind, making it an excellent garden or tree house.
Universal Truth: the sun rises in the east, which has spiritual significance in many belief systems. In the northern hemisphere, the north side of a home or building is naturally cooler, just as the darkness of night is also associated with cooler temperatures. The rising sun may symbolically be seen as warming the coolness of the north direction through the eastern sky.
Although the ideal Vastu home site is a square or 2:1 rectangle with perfect 90° angles, if the North-East corner of the site extends out toward the North or North-East direction, perhaps as an acute angle of a quadrilateral, this is the only exception which may be seen as auspicious for the residents.
