Sale/Purchase guidelines shared by DHA Multan

The DHA Multan society administration has issued the following list of the dos and don’ts for sale/purchase of the plots in DHA Multan:

THE DOs:

• The plot deal should always be made through authorised DHA property dealers/real estate agents. The details of these authorised agents are available at DHA Multan’s website

• The sale/purchase agreement should always be conducted in person for the property transactions and both buyers and sellers must abide by the written agreement

• Check the authenticity of the demand draft/pay order, prior to signing the transfer document in front of the Transfer and Record Branch of DHA Multan

• One should verify the price offered from the market, by contacting other authorised dealers

• The mode of payment and schedule should be finalised in writing, before making the deal

• Before making the deal, the commission/service charges of the dealer should be decided

• The sellers must bring their original allotment letter and CNICs at the time and date of the deal and cross the copies of these documents, before handing over to the dealer

• To confirm the amount on demand draft/cheque, the sellers should contact the bank

• The buyer and seller should try and meet in person before the transfer of the plot

THE DON’Ts

• Do not give your rights to the dealer for finalisation of sale and purchase of plots

• Never sign any paper or affidavit (prepared by the realtor) without first reading

• Do not sign the ‘Biana’ affidavit before settling terms and conditions of the sale/purchase of the plot

• Do not give the right to the purchaser for plot sale on Biana/affidavit before plot transfer

• Do not give up your exact plot number while getting an assessment from the market.

Sir, pretty much generic T&C that apply to any inch of land you buy/sell anywhere in PAK.

Except 'ALWAYS' buy from authorised dealer chouran so authorised dealers pay to get authorisation and than exploit the name to extort it from clients. I am not against these authorised dealers but these are the Front Line Cheerleaders of Dealers Game!

No offense

None taken Imtiaz, of course you are right – that it is a way to extort money. However, given the number of residential scams happening all around, the logical move would suggest that people play it safe.

However, I have heard that a real estate regulatory authority is in the works, let’s hope that it functions efficiently and ensures safer property transactions.
