From fake documents to double registrations, property frauds are rising—and buyers must stay alert.

Common Types of Property Fraud:

  • Fake Sale Deeds: Forged documents with rubber stamps or mismatched seals

  • Double Registration: Same property sold to multiple buyers using duplicate paperwork

  • Impersonation: Fraudsters posing as owners or legal heirs

  • Benami Transactions: Property held in someone else’s name to hide real ownership

  • Unapproved Projects: Sold without municipal or RERA approvals

Legal Protection Tips:

  • Verify the Registered Sale Deed—it’s the strongest proof of ownership

  • Check Encumbrance Certificate (EC) for past transactions and dues

  • Match seller’s ID with deed details—watch for impersonation tactics

  • Confirm mutation records, survey maps, and title history

  • Demand NOCs from builder, society, and civic bodies

  • Use bank loans—banks do thorough document checks

  • Hire a property lawyer for legal due diligence
