The Legal Process: From Allotment to Sales Deed – A Quick Guide for Homebuyers

Buying a home involves several legal steps to ensure your investment is protected. Here’s a streamlined breakdown of the process, with RERA ensuring transparency at each stage.

  1. The Allotment Letter
    After the token payment, the builder provides an RERA approved Allotment Letter, confirming your unit and project details, along with the RERA registration number.
    Contents of the Allotment Letter:
    • Unit and project details
    • RERA registration number
    • Payment terms
  2. Agreement to Sale
    Once you’ve paid 10% of the booking amount, an Agreement to Sale is signed. It covers important terms like the payment schedule and project delivery timelines.
    Contents of the Agreement to Sale:
    • Payment schedule
    • Project delivery timelines
    • Terms and conditions
  3. Payment Receipts
    Every payment made toward the property must be acknowledged with a receipt, which is crucial for your records and loan processing.
    Contents of the Payment Receipt:
    • Payment details
    • Buyer and property information
    • Receipt number
  4. The Sales Deed
    At the final payment stage, a Sales Deed is signed, legally transferring the property to you.
    Contents of the Sales Deed:
    • Property transfer details
    • Buyer and seller details
    • Final payment terms
