Protecting your most valuable asset — careful due diligence before you buy, and decisive action when your property is threatened.
Property in Karachi is often bought on trust and lost through forged documents, double sales or illegal occupation. Proper verification and the right legal response at the right time make all the difference.
We advise buyers, sellers, owners and heirs on transactions and disputes, and litigate before the City Courts, Sessions Courts and Sindh High Court.
Transfer of Property Act, 1882; Registration Act, 1908; Illegal Dispossession Act, 2005; Specific Relief Act, 1877; Sindh Land Revenue Act, 1967
Verify the seller's title and the full chain of ownership, confirm the documents with the registering office and the relevant society or authority, check for mortgages, litigation or unpaid dues, and confirm that construction is approved.
No. An agreement to sell only creates a right to obtain a sale. Ownership of immovable property passes through a registered sale deed. If the seller refuses to complete, a suit for specific performance can be filed.
Act quickly. A complaint under the Illegal Dispossession Act, 2005 can be filed before the Sessions Court, alongside a civil suit for possession and an injunction where needed.
