Before You Pay a Rupee: How to Verify a Property in Punjab

The most expensive mistakes in real estate aren't about price — they're about paperwork. Here's the verification checklist we run before any client of ours signs. Do this, and you avoid 90% of the horror stories.

The non-negotiable checks

• Title deed: confirm the seller genuinely owns it, with a clean chain of ownership.
• RERA registration: for applicable projects, verify it on the Punjab RERA portal — not just the brochure.
• Encumbrance certificate: proves the property is free of loans or legal dues.
• Approved layout & licence: the plan and the licence must match what's being sold.
• Mutation & tax receipts: up-to-date records and no outstanding dues.

Why we walk every property ourselves

We don't list everything — we curate what passes these checks first. It's slower, and it means we sometimes tell a client 'don't buy this one.' But it's the reason families trust us with the biggest cheque they'll ever write.

Found a property elsewhere and want a second opinion before you commit? Call us — we'll tell you honestly what we see.
