Our ‘Title Search’ services provide precisely this exhaustive and comprehensive information set to our clients. The salient features of our services are
- We obtain certified copies of the latest title records from the concerned authorities to verify and validate the ownership status of that particular property and provide the same to our clients.
- Our team of specialists help in physical verification of the property by visiting the property and finding the on-ground status on the current occupant of the property and how they are in possession of the said property.
- Photographs of the property are included as part of the comprehensive report we provide to our clients, based on the ‘Title Search’ undertaken.
- In a few areas across India some records are available online, but these are mostly insufficient and, in most cases, not updated. Thereby not allowing the client to get an in-depth overview. We obtain documentation (current as well as old records) to have a complete understanding of the history of ownership of the property.
- Translation of documents, which are mostly in vernacular languages, for clear understanding of the documents is also undertaken by our legal firm.
- If illegal transfer or an invalid sale or exchange has been committed, the client is updated about the same and given legal advice to take timely action in order to challenge the same and restore his/her rights over the property.
This entire information set coupled with latest certified copies of documents is provided to our clients in the form of an exhaustive and in-depth report. The genesis behind providing such an in-depth and exhaustive report to our clients is the clear understanding on our part, of the needs of our clients and their desire to have a complete comprehensive understanding of their real estate assets in India.
