How to buy a plot in Kharian
Buying land is a big decision, so it is worth going step by step. This guide explains how to buy a plot in Kharian in simple words, with a checklist you can use before you pay any money. It covers Grand City, Citi Housing, New Metro City, Dream City, Buraq City and other societies around Kharian and Sarai Alamgir.
Step 1: Decide your budget and your plot size
Start with how much you can spend and what size you need. Common sizes are 5 marla, 7 marla, 10 marla and 1 kanal. Remember to keep some money aside for transfer costs. To see what sellers are asking, read our price guides: 5 marla plot price in Grand City Kharian and 5 marla house price in Metro City Kharian.
Step 2: Choose the society and the block
Every society has blocks, and the price changes from block to block. Read about the society first:
Step 3: Compare at least three plots
Never decide on the first plot you see. Compare plots of the same size in the same block, such as corner with corner and park-facing with park-facing. You can search plots for sale in Kharian on PlotDeals.pk and call the sellers directly.
Step 4: Visit the plot yourself
- Go to the plot and check that the plot number and street match the papers.
- Ask the society office to confirm the plot number and the block.
- Check the size of the plot and the width of the street.
- Ask if the plot has possession, or if it is only a file or a booking.
Step 5: Check the documents before you pay
Ask the seller to show the original papers and keep copies. Documents can differ from society to society, so ask the society office what applies to your plot. The usual things to check are:
- Allotment letter or ownership papers in the name of the seller.
- The seller's CNIC. The name must match the papers.
- Possession letter, if the plot is in a society.
- Society dues. Ask for a clearance that all dues are paid.
- Payment record showing how much of the plot price was already paid to the society.
- Land record, for land outside a society. Ask a trusted professional to help you check it.
Step 6: Agree the price and the payment plan in writing
Write down the price, how much you pay now, the dates of the next payments, and who pays the transfer costs. Pay by bank transfer where possible and keep every receipt. Avoid large cash payments without a written receipt.
Step 7: Transfer the plot into your name
The plot is only fully yours after the transfer is done. Ask the society office or a local lawyer which steps and fees apply. For tax rules, read the current rules on the FBR website.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Paying a token or advance before seeing the papers.
- Trusting a price on a phone call without visiting the plot.
- Buying from someone whose name is not on the papers.
- Ignoring unpaid society dues.
- Not putting the agreement in writing.
