How it works

  1. 1

    Send the papers

    Upload everything you have; we tell you what else to ask for.

  2. 2

    Examination

    A property lawyer works through the chain of title.

  3. 3

    Report

    A written report setting out the risks in plain language.

  4. 4

    Discussion

    A call to take you through what it means for the purchase.

Documents you will need

  • Sale deed or title deed
  • Encumbrance certificate
  • Property tax receipts
  • Approved building plan, where applicable
  • Mutation and khata documents

Scans or clear photographs are fine. The lawyer handling your matter will tell you if anything else is needed once they have seen your papers.
