Sale Deed (movable / immovable)

What this is

A sale deed transferring ownership of immovable property - a plot, flat, house, shop or land - or of a valuable movable such as a vehicle, machinery or a business asset, recording the parties, the property, the price, payment, possession and the seller's warranties. It is for buyers and sellers who have agreed the deal. Our panel advocate drafts and reviews the deed and delivers it signed on letterhead; stamp duty and registration, compulsory for immovable property, are separate steps we explain.

What you get

A sale deed drafted, reviewed and signed by our panel advocate on letterhead, with the recitals of title, the schedule of the property, the consideration and how it was paid, possession and delivery, the seller's covenants on title, encumbrances and dues, indemnity, and the annexures the Sub-Registrar expects. For a vehicle or other movable, a sale agreement with delivery and transfer terms. Delivered ready for execution, with a note on stamp duty, registration, TDS on property purchases, and the documents to carry to the Sub-Registrar; the property-sale-deed-registration service handles the registration itself. Stamp duty and registration charges are not included.
