Documents Required When Purchasing a Property

Purchasing a house is much more than a dream for most individuals. A person devotes a considerable portion of their life to the purchase of a home. However, the home-buying process can be more difficult in practice, especially for first-time buyers. 

In case you are planning to buy a property in Mumbai or any metropolis for that matter, get ready for a lot of paperwork because the process entails various documents that you need to be aware of. Let’s take a glance at them:

The Sale Deed

It is an important legal document that records the sale and transfer of property from the developer to the buyer. The sale deed must be provided in original form because it demonstrates ownership of title to the property. The sale deed must be registered with the Sub-Registrar's office in the region where the property is situated.

The Mother Deed

It is an essential document that traces property ownership. Banks typically request this document when a homebuyer applies for a home loan against the property. Homebuyers can seek assistance from local authorities for this document.

The Sale and Purchase Agreement

This document contains all of the property's information, such as the terms and conditions, the occupancy date, the payment schedule, the specifications, information about the common spaces and facilities, and so on.

The Building Approval Plan

Before starting construction work, the builder must get the requisite sanctions under the terms of the building regulations, master plan, and local authority acts.

The Letter of Possession

It is a document that specifies the date on which the buyers will take possession of the property. This document, though, is not evidence of property title. For the same, an Occupancy Certificate is required.

The Completion Certificate

Also known as Occupancy Certificate, it is a document that confirms the building was inspected after completion and complies with laws defined by the municipal corporation or local development authority. It is important to obtain utilities like water, power, and sewer.

The Khata Certificate

A Khata is simply a revenue paper containing property particulars, like its size, location, and the area on which it is built, in order to pay property taxes.

The Allotment Letter

If you want to book a property that is presently under development, you must have an Allotment Letter. It contains all of the information on the payment of the flat as well as any other costs that you may have to pay for any additional facilities.

It doesn’t matter whether you buy a property in Godrej Horizon, Wadala or Godrej Ascend, Kolshet Road, Thane or any other residential project in any location, make sure to check all these documents.
