Legal Verification
An advocate reads every document, searches the registry and the courts, and hands you a written report. Not a badge. A report you can act on.
Four failures account for most of the property disputes that reach a court in this region.
Or is one of several co-owners, and the others never agreed to sell. A sale deed signed by one of four heirs is not a sale.
An unpaid housing loan, a mortgage, or a lien that follows the property to you rather than staying with the person who borrowed.
Built outside the sanctioned plan, on land never converted from agricultural use, or without an occupancy certificate.
A partition suit, a builder dispute or a stay order you inherit on the day you sign.
Every report covers all seven. None of them is an optional extra you can be upsold later.
Clear ownership, and the chain of transfer traced back through previous owners.
Outstanding loans, mortgages and third-party claims registered against the property.
Pending and disposed court cases touching the property or the people selling it.
Building plan sanction, land use, municipal clearances and the occupancy certificate.
Payment history and any arrears left behind for the next owner to settle.
That the way the property is actually used matches what the land is permitted for.
The deed itself, read line by line by the advocate handling your file.
Two reports, two speeds. Both are written by an advocate, not generated.
48 hours
The fast read before you pay a token: ownership, obvious encumbrances and anything that should stop the deal outright.
4–5 business days
All seven checks, the full chain of title, court searches and a written opinion you can hand to a bank.
The list differs by what you are buying. These are the instruments used across Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh and Delhi.
The single largest payment most people make, against a document set they have never had to read before.
Several properties, often in districts you do not live in, where a site visit is not practical.
Everything done remotely, including the parts that normally need someone standing at a counter.
Title, conversion and litigation history checked before a term sheet, not after.
Your file is handled by a practising advocate on our empanelled network, supported by our in-house title diligence team. Nothing is outsourced to a document-processing desk.
Vetted by experienced high court and district court property advocates with 10+ years of land record and title search expertise.
Anonymised from closed files. We publish what the work actually found, including the deals it stopped.

It traces who has owned the property and how it passed from each owner to the next, usually across the last thirty years, and checks that each transfer was properly executed and registered. It is the difference between the seller holding a document that says they own it and the seller actually owning it. On its own it does not cover court cases or building approvals, which is why our report runs six further checks beside it.
They answer different questions. The badge says we visited the property, confirmed who the owner is and checked the listing is live. It is about whether the listing is real. A title report is about whether the ownership is sound, and it is the work of an advocate reading registry and court records. A badge is not a substitute for one, and we will never imply that it is.
Usually yes. Most of what a title search needs is a public record that we can obtain ourselves from the registry or the land records office, so a missing encumbrance certificate or an old deed is rarely a blocker. Tell us what you have, and the advocate will tell you what is genuinely needed from the seller before work can proceed.
You get it in writing, with the record it came from and what it would take to clear it. Some defects are fixable before completion, some are a reason to renegotiate, and a few are a reason to walk away. The advocate who wrote the report will talk you through which of those you are looking at. We do not sell a clean report; we sell an accurate one.
Most lenders run their own legal check regardless of what you bring them, because they are lending against the property rather than relying on your advisors. Our report is written so it can be handed over and will usually make that process faster, but it does not replace the bank's own opinion and we would not claim otherwise.
Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh and Delhi, because that is where our empanelled advocates actually practise and hold the district-level familiarity this work needs. If your property is outside those, say so when you enquire and we will tell you honestly whether we can help rather than taking the file and learning as we go.
