Buying a plot is one of the best investments you can make. Although it is a more affordable purchase than an apartment or villa, the purchase of a plot requires the same amount of planning. There are several documents that need to be checked and verified before buying a plot. Knowing more about these documents will help you stay alert about the entire plot buying procedure. Also, it is imperative to be legally compliant while investing in a future asset.

1. Sale Deed

2. Khata Certificate/ Extract

3. General Power of Attorney

4. No- Objection Certificates (NOC)

5. Alottment Letter

6. Sale Agreement

7. Possession Letter

8. Pyment Receipts

9. Property Tax Receipts

10. Encumberance Certificate
