“Understanding the legal framework of land ownership in Bangladesh. Learn how to verify title, check for disputes, and ensure your investment is protected.”

Land title verification is the single most important step in any real estate transaction in Bangladesh. A clear title ensures your investment is protected and marketable for generations.

Bangladesh's land records are maintained through a multi-layered system: the SA (Single Administration) khatian, the RS (Revisional Survey) khatian, and where applicable, the BS (Bangladesh Survey) khatian. Each provides a snapshot of ownership at different points in history.

Steps to Verify Title

  1. Obtain the latest Khatian/Parcha from the local land office.
  2. Check for mutations — ensure the seller's name appears in current records.
  3. Verify no encumbrances — search for mortgages, liens, or court injunctions.
  4. Review 30-year chain of title — trace ownership back three decades.
  5. Confirm plot boundaries — physical survey and demarcation.

Be cautious of significantly below-market pricing, pressure to skip due diligence, incomplete documentation, or any history of disputes in the neighborhood. A reputable developer like Corona Properties handles all of this for you.

Never bypass legal verification, no matter how attractive the deal seems. The cost of proper due diligence is negligible compared to the cost of a disputed title.
