Property due diligence
Why checking land records matters
Property transactions can involve significant savings and long-term commitments. Reviewing the available official record is one important part of due diligence before paying a deposit or signing an agreement.
- ✓Check recorded ownership
Compare recorded details with the seller's identity and supporting documents. - ✓Review transaction history
Ask about relevant registered deeds, mutations and earlier transfers. - ✓Confirm the land description
Compare location, area, parcel identifiers and boundaries where applicable. - ✓Look for unresolved issues
Ask the relevant authority and a qualified property lawyer about disputes, restrictions or competing claims.
Important: A record search or Fard alone may not resolve every legal issue. Verify the complete title, documents and transaction circumstances with the appropriate authorities and a qualified lawyer.
