Start with the right checks

A safe property verification process separates title, planning or layout approval, RERA registration where applicable, encumbrance review, physical inspection and written commercial terms.

Property కొనేటప్పుడు “Approved Project” అని చెప్పడం మాత్రమే సరిపోదు. ఏ Authority? ఏ Approval Number? RERA Applicableనా? Title Clearనా? అన్నీ separately verify చేయండి.
Buyer note:

Location marketing, nearby infrastructure, approval wording or future-development claims should not be treated as a guarantee of legal status, price appreciation or returns. Verify the specific property and documents.

Official verification resources

Use official planning and regulatory portals as cross-checks. They do not replace project-specific document verification or independent legal advice.

Planning approval and RERA are not the same thing

Planning / layout authorityAuthorities such as APCRDA, VMRDA or HMDA publish planning resources for their respective jurisdictions. The relevant authority depends on the exact location.
RERAAP RERA and Telangana RERA regulate registered real-estate projects where the law requires registration. RERA registration is a separate check from title and planning approval.
TitleOwnership and transfer rights must be checked separately from planning or RERA status.
EncumbranceRegistered charges or prior transactions should be reviewed as part of legal due diligence.
Project-specific numberAsk the seller/developer for the exact approval or RERA number instead of accepting a generic “approved” statement.
Match the documentsConfirm that the project name, location, survey details and promoter/seller information match the property being offered.

A safe verification sequence

  1. Write down the exact project/property name, locality, survey number and plot/unit number.
  2. Ask for the claimed approval number and authority name.
  3. Check the relevant official planning authority portal or documents.
  4. Check AP RERA or Telangana RERA where project registration is applicable.
  5. Review title and encumbrance documents separately.
  6. Physically inspect the property and access road.
  7. Get important price, refund, possession or development promises in writing.

Buyer FAQ

Is RERA registration the same as layout approval?

No. RERA registration and planning or layout approval are different checks, and title verification is also separate.

Which authority should I check for an AP or Telangana property?

It depends on the exact property location and type. Examples include APCRDA, VMRDA, HMDA and the respective state RERA portals, but the applicable authority must be confirmed for the specific project.

Can an official master plan prove a project is approved?

No. A master plan gives broader planning context. A specific project or layout approval should be verified using its own records.
