STEP 1: If you have decided to buy an house, Search for
one...
STEP 2: Do not stop STEP 1 even when you get bogged down
STEP 3: Once you zero-in on a property, do a property
valuation from a valuation expert (Civil Engineer)
STEP 4: Check out the construction quality from the
valuation expert
STEP 5: Check informally about the property in the neighbourhood
on the Price/Ownership. If it is a purchase of a new apartment, visit the previous projects of the
builder to get to know the quality of construction, reliability of completion
on due date
STEP 6: If you find something wrong based on STEP 4 &
STEP 5...STOP proceeding... however nice the property may be...however cheap it may be...
STEP 6: Negotiate for the price with the owner/builder based
on the your inputs & from the valuation expert
STEP 7: If you are okay with the price, go ahead and pay a
token amount to get all necessary documents...Amount should be typically Rs.5000 to Rs.10,000
STEP 8: Find a good lawyer for evaluating the documents and
follow lawyer’s instruction word-by-word..If lawyer asks for one more
document...get it .More the proof ...the better it is for you. If lawyer raises
a flag, STOP dealing with the property .
STEP 9: Once the lawyer gives the go ahead, approach a
bank for a home loan...Even if you have
your own funds I would recommend going for financing from a bank/housing
finance institutions, as they would do another set of checks on the property
from their end.
STEP 10: Start
pooling your money in
STEP 11: Once the
home loan is approved, Register your property with help of your lawyer
