Documents required for selling a property


For those who own property that they want to sell, it is necessary to have certain documentation prepared and on hand before beginning the process of selling. Those who are considering purchasing the property will examine this paperwork. Even before finalizing the transaction, buyers often insist on seeing the original documentation.

The following are the paperwork that you will need when selling a property.

Allotment letter:

The letter from the appropriate organization or body giving you allotment of the property is the first and most important document you must have in order to complete the transaction.

Deed of sale:

When selling a property, you must have the original conveyance or sale document from the previous owners of the property available. If you have submitted the original deed for registration with the Registrar, you must send a copy of the conveyance deed or sale deed, as well as a photocopy of the receipt from the Sub-registrar where the papers were lodged for registration, to the Registrar in order to complete the transaction.

The sale deed is crucial because it serves as a record of who owns the property. It is required to demonstrate the existence of a chain of earlier agreements with previous owners.

Approved plan:

In addition, you must have a copy of the authorized building design as well as an occupancy certificate issued by the appropriate government agency.


Documents from society:

When you sell your home, you must seek approval to transfer the property from a competent body – such as a development authority or a society – before you can complete the sale. The buyer has the right to request the original stamped receipts of payments made to the builder or developer by the previous and current sellers to the builder or developer.

It is impossible to overstate the impact and significance of societal papers. Consider the following scenario: you wish to sell a property that you own. You must have a copy of the share certificate issued by the apartment society in your name in order to participate in the lottery. The share certificate serves as proof of your participation in the society. Also required is a certificate from the society stating that you have no outstanding payments to make to the organization. Filling up and signing the society's membership transfer form for the purpose of transferring ownership is necessary to ensure that there are no roadblocks in the process of transferring the property to the following buyer.

Sale agreement:

The parties may then sign into a purchase and sale agreement and approve the terms and conditions of the transaction after the paperwork has been cleared. Following that, they will be able to execute the selling deed in accordance with the agreement of selling a property. Seller and buyer sign and execute a sale agreement on non-judicial stamp paper, which is then returned to the seller for processing.

The sale agreement is one of the most important agreements in a transaction since it has legal significance and may be used as evidence in court. In order to prepare a sale deal, the agreement between the buyer and seller must first be signed by both parties. A contract to sell is required before any document that serves as proof of a transfer of property by sale may be created. It outlines in plain and unambiguous words the terms under which the seller wants to sell the property and the circumstances under which the buyer intends to acquire it.
