Buying a property involves more than comparing prices and locations. Buyers should verify legal documents, approvals, safety, construction quality, and the developer’s record before making a decision.
Check the property’s title documents and ownership history before proceeding with the purchase. This can help identify existing claims, disputes, loans, or other legal issues linked to the property.
Confirm that the person or company selling the property has the legal right to transfer ownership. Review relevant documents carefully before paying money or signing agreements.
For eligible projects, verify the property’s registration on the RERA portal. Compare the registered information with the developer’s claims, approved plans, and promised completion timeline.
Check whether the required construction permissions and approvals are in place. Buyers should also examine structural safety, fire protection systems, emergency exits, and other essential safeguards.
Look beyond the apartment itself. Check connectivity, nearby facilities, ventilation, natural light, open spaces, and greenery, along with upcoming developments that could affect everyday living.
Before committing your savings, examine the developer’s previous projects and track record. Review construction quality, delivery history, legal records, and customer experiences before signing the final documents.
