Under Construction Property Transaction: Important Documents & Steps


While dealing in an under construction property of a Group Housing Project, whether as a Company Sales Person, Channel Partner or even as a Developer certain Steps & Documents are very important for a smooth process.

We are listing here-under a few of these for your knowledge purpose:

Booking Documents

Along with booking amount you must take following documents so as to complete the booking documents set:

-    Booking/Registration Form: along with booking terms & conditions completely filled & signed by client.

-    Price List: with the price at which he is purchasing circled & signed by client. If he is buying at a price other than which is printed, than that price should be handwritten on Price List circled & signed.
  
-  Payment Plan: A company may have different payment plans, so the one applicable to this deal should be attached along with & signed.
  
- Booking Amount: A Cheque towards the booking amount, which is generally 10% of total price, should be collected along with other documents.

Once this is done you are through with the booking process and move on to the next steps of the process. Here one thing very important to mention is that every payment received from customer should be by adding 4% Service Tax. This has to be religiously deposited to government at the end of month. 

Booking Receipt
When we receive booking amount make a Booking Receipt. In this Client is generally given a Unique Code in company’s system and under that code Client’s file is started.

A receipt should be issued to client for the Booking Amount received and that receipt contains information like Client’s Name, His Father & Mother’s Names, His Contact Address, His Permanent Address, Details of Nominee like Name; Relation; preferably Nominee’s Signatures etc., Details of Payment Received: Cheque/DD No. (If Cheque/DD) or Cash; Date, Amount, Unit Number (Here he is temporarily allotted a Unit Number also).

Allotment Installment
The 2nd installment is called the “Allotment Installment”. Here again a routine receipt for payment received in issued.

But what is more important is that, at this stage Buyer-Builder Agreement is signed between client & developer. Two completely filled copies of the same should be given to client for signing. Client signs both the copies attach his KYC documents with it and return it back to company.

Than Authorized person of company signs both the sets, after which one copy goes to Client & other to his file.   

P.S.: Each & Every paper entering client file should preferably be signed by Client

Due Payment Intimation
Whenever a customer’s payment becomes due as per the Payment Plan opted by him, compliance officer may be with the assistance of his team, sends him an intimation.

After the intimation has been sent by compliance officer, you should follow with client as well concerned channel partner to get the payment within due time.

Cancellation of Booking

If the payment doesn’t come even after the passage of 90 Days (Again varies from company to company) than a cancellation letter should be sent to customer through Registered/Speed Post only. Under no circumstance should this be sent through Courier or ordinary post.

You should also intimate this to client as well concerned channel partner.

Transfer Cases

Many a time’s clients will like to transfer their property in someone else’s name. For that you should have a properly worded & vetted by a Lawyer Transfer document. This Transfer Set on a Stamp Paper of Rs. 100 should be filled & signed by both Transferor & Transferee. Both will attach their KYC documents along with & get it notarized. On submission of this Transferor will have no rights over this property.

Cancellation
During the process many persons will like to get the unit cancelled also due to some reason or the other. For this also you should have a properly worded & vetted by an advocate cancellation set. Any person willing to cancel a unit will fill it on a stamp paper of Rs. 100. Than after submission of the same you should release him the payment as per company’s policy.


Cancellation will be complete once that person has refund amount in his account after which he will have no right over the said property.
