For many people, purchasing a home is their ideal, but it can be difficult to comprehend the associated paperwork. Proper property paperwork in Bihar requires a number of steps and legal verifications to safeguard your investment. Even little errors might result in delays, additional costs, or legal issues if they are not addressed appropriately.
In this tutorial, we’ll give you a clear explanation of all the necessary documentation, lay out the usual timeframe, point out typical buyer mistakes, and demonstrate how Vibhas Buildtech can help you every step of the way. Additionally, a printable checklist to keep you organized is included at the end.
Documents You Need When Buying Property in Bihar:
Here’s a simplified explanation of the key documents required:
- The Deed of Sale: This is the last document that gives the buyer possession of the property after it has been sold. It serves as proof of your legal ownership and needs to be registered at the local sub-registrar’s office.
- The Deed of Title: The seller’s legal right to sell the property is attested by this document. It demonstrates that the property is lawfully owned and not under question.
- Certificate of Encumbrance (EC): This document attests that there are no outstanding debts or legal obligations on the property. It is among the most crucial documents to review prior to making a purchase.
- Certificate of Mutation: The ownership information must be changed in the government’s land records as soon as you purchase the property. In order for you to pay property taxes in your name, the mutation certificate documents this change.
- A letter or certificate of possession: The developer or landowner issues this document to attest to your current ownership of the property.
- Building Plan Approved: Verify that the Patna Municipal Corporation or another appropriate authority has authorized the building plan if you’re purchasing a constructed home.
- Receipts for property taxes: Request the most recent tax receipts from the seller to demonstrate that there are no unpaid property taxes.
- Certificates of No Objection (NOCs): NOCs from municipal offices, the water board, and the electrical agency may be required, depending on the property. These demonstrate that the property complies with municipal regulations and does not contravene zoning restrictions.
- Proof of Identity and Address: Registration and loan processing require documents such as your passport-sized pictures, Aadhaar card, and PAN card.
How Long Does the Documentation Process Take?
It usually proceeds smoothly in a few weeks if everything is in order, though the entire procedure can vary. You first choose the property and verify its legality. An agreement to sell is then signed. The bank will require several days to verify your documentation if you are applying for a home loan. The property is subsequently registered at the sub-registrar office. After registering, obtaining the mutation certificate is the last step, which could take a few weeks.
Common Pitfalls and How to Avoid Them:
- Not Cross-Checking the Title: By failing to inspect the title deed, some purchasers wind up with property that is contested or unlawfully owned. Check this with a lawyer or reputable builder at all times.
- The Encumbrance Certificate Ignored: This document reveals whether the property is involved in any pending lawsuits or overdue loans. Serious problems may arise if you purchase without this check.
- Incomplete Sale Contract: Some sign the selling agreement without reading it, or they choose to skip it. Ensure that every payment term, deadline, and responsibility is stated explicitly.
- Postponing mutation: Many purchasers neglect to update their name’s government records. If you don’t change, you can have problems paying taxes or selling your property in the future.
- Purchasing Without the Right Approvals: A building may be unlawful if its layout and construction plan are not approved. Authorities may impose fines or even demolish the property.
