InfraGuru Advisory Desk
Research Team
The most expensive mistakes in real estate rarely happen at the negotiation table; they happen weeks earlier, in paperwork nobody read carefully enough. Before we let a client sign anything, every acquisition passes through the same seven-point due-diligence process, regardless of ticket size.
It starts with title verification: a clean, unbroken chain of ownership going back at least thirty years, cross-checked against the local sub-registrar's records. Any gap, however small, gets resolved or the deal gets walked away from.
Next comes RERA registration: not just confirming the project is registered, but reading the filed timeline, sanctioned plan, and any amendments against what's actually being marketed. Discrepancies here are one of the most common red flags we encounter.
We also pull encumbrance certificates, verify there's no pending litigation attached to the land parcel, confirm occupancy certificate status for ready properties, and independently verify carpet area against RERA-registered plans rather than developer brochures.
None of this is exciting work. But it's the difference between an investment and a liability, and it's why every InfraGuru client walks into a transaction knowing exactly what they're buying, and exactly what they're not.
