What to check before you pay an advance
Farms here are often held by extended families across generations. Check for a registered partition, legal-heir certificates and the consent of every co-owner, and check forest boundaries for parcels toward the foothills.
Banks check both the land (the title and the approved layout) and the building (an approved plan that matches what was actually built) before they sanction a loan. Our house document checklist lists every paper you'll need.
What to check
- Compare the approved building plan with the house as built: floors, setbacks and extensions.
- Confirm the plot is in a DTCP/LPA-approved layout, or that a regularisation order exists.
- Pull a 30-year Encumbrance Certificate on TNREGINET and trace the parent documents.
