Both these steps are crucial before agreeing with the Builder, because y ...ReadMore

A. Dear client,
As an exchange deed must be registered to have legal validity, participants must pay stamp duty and fee at the time of the registration of the deed. Rates of stamp duty vary from state-to-state. Failure to disclose occurs when a home seller deliberately withholds or conceals material facts about the property from the buyer. A material fact in real estate refers to any information that could significantly impact the buyer's decision to purchase the property or affect its value. If t ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,
Transferable Development Rights (TDR) is a zoning technique aimed at preserving plots of land with permanent conservation value, which does not contribute to the approval of additional floors in a building under construction. If the construction includes illegal floors or deviations exceeding 15% of the total sanctioned plan area, it may be denied an Occupancy Certificate, potentially rendering it illegal. Building bye-laws are subject to the regulations of each state and can vary b ...ReadMore

Check the society's bylaws and rules regarding parking charges. Societies typically have their own set of rules that members are expected to adhere to.

The legal heirs, in this case, would be the children. The property can be distributed among the children, and then they can collectively decide to sell it. The legal heirs may need to obtain a succession certificate from the court to establish their right to the property. This certificate is often required for transferring asse ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,
wThe major issue with bank auctions is that you won’t have access to property records for title searches before purchasing. Banks are reluctant to divulge a lot of information. The bank’s only goal is to sell the property. So, buying a house or property at a bank auction involves potential risks. As part of their due diligence, buyers must conduct a title search and verify the property’s ownership. Banks neither take possession of the property nor take on any liability for it ...ReadMore
