Navigating your first real estate purchase can feel overwhelming with legal terminology, government approvals, and financial planning. Whether you are purchasing a residential plot in Makronia or an apartment in Civil Lines, taking a structured verification approach ensures your hard-earned savings remain secure.

1. Verify RERA MP Registration

Always verify whether the development or project is registered with the Madhya Pradesh Real Estate Regulatory Authority (MP RERA). RERA registration ensures the developer adheres to layout plans, sanctioned timelines, and designated escrow account rules for buyer funds.

2. Perform a Thorough Title Search (Khasra & Khatoni)

Ask for a clear 30-year title search report from a practicing property advocate. Verify that the revenue records (Khasra and Khatoni) accurately list the seller or developer as the rightful land owner without any pending dispute or encumbrance.

3. Check Approved Master Layout & Diversion Status

Ensure the property has valid land use diversion (residential/commercial) and Town & Country Planning (TNCP) layout approval. Purchasing unapproved or non-diverted land can lead to legal complications during construction permission.

4. Inspect Physical Boundaries & Road Access

Never rely solely on paper drawings. Conduct an on-site physical visit to measure exact plot dimensions, confirm road widths (e.g. 30 ft or 40 ft internal roads), and verify utility points like electricity lines and drainage connections.

5. Review Pre-Approved Bank Tie-ups

Projects approved by major nationalized and private banks (such as SBI, HDFC, ICICI, or Axis Bank) undergo rigorous legal and technical vetting by financial institutions before sanctioning home loans.

6. Confirm Builder Credentials & Past Projects

Examine the developer’s track record, completed projects, quality of construction, and reputation for timely handover in the city.

7. Read the Sale Agreement Thoroughly

Before making a token deposit, read every clause in the Agreement to Sell. Ensure key details like total price, payment schedule, carpet area, possession date, and penalty clauses for delay are clearly documented.
