What is this service?
SRCHN.PROPERTY collects the available deeds, obtains certified copies where originals are missing, matches the chain against EC and Khatha records, and produces a clear flow chart with each link verified or flagged - a document a buyer's or lender's lawyer can work from directly.
Title flow verification lays out the ownership chain - parent deed to present deed - and checks that every transfer was executed, stamped and registered correctly, that no link is missing, and that the EC and Khatha match the chain. A broken or unregistered link anywhere in the chain puts the current owner's title in doubt.
Why and when you need it
- Why
- Most Bengaluru title disputes trace back to one defective link - an unregistered partition, a missing heir's signature, an unstamped agreement. Finding it before the transaction is far cheaper than after.
- Who needs it
- Buyers before registration, lenders before sanction, and owners who want their own title cleaned up before selling.
- When
- Before any purchase, mortgage or family settlement.
