Real Estate Guide — What to Know Before Buying or Selling a Flat or Land

বাংলায় পড়ুন

Buying a flat or land is a major life decision. Verifying ownership, plan approval, encumbrance-free status and registration costs in advance reduces the risk of fraud and litigation.

Key points

Verify the seller's ownership and mutation (khatian)
Building plan approval (RAJUK in Dhaka, CDA in Chattogram, etc.)
Whether the land/flat is free of encumbrance (no bank loan or lawsuit)
Registration costs: stamp duty, registration fee, local government tax and source tax
Written agreement with the developer and handover deadline

Rules, costs and taxes change from time to time and vary by area — before making a final decision, confirm with the relevant office, bank or lawyer.
