In today’s fast-paced real estate market, countless new projects launch every month — but not every project is genuine, secure, or worth your investment. With increasing cases of scams and unauthorized developments, verifying a project before booking is not just important, it’s essential.
This guide will help you understand exactly how to verify a real estate project so your investment remains safe, secure, and profitable.
1. Check the Project’s Approval Status (NOC & Legal Documents)
The first step is to confirm whether the project is legally approved.
Look for:
NOC (No Objection Certificate) from the relevant development authority (CDA, RDA, LDA, etc.)
Land ownership documents
Layout plan approvals
Building plan approvals
A legitimate project always provides verified copies of these documents. If a developer hesitates, take it as a red flag.
2. Verify Land Ownership & Title Deed
Before booking, ensure that the developer actually owns the land.
Request:
Fard / Ownership certificate
Registry or Mutation documents
Allotment letters (if applicable)
Cross-check these with the relevant authority to confirm authenticity.
3. Research the Developer’s Track Record
A trusted developer usually has a history of delivering past projects. Check:
Previous projects delivered on time
Quality of construction
Customer reviews
Reputation in the market
Financial stability
A well-known and established developer reduces your investment risk significantly.
4. Visit the Project Site Physically
Never rely only on brochures, 3D animations, or digital marketing.
Visit the actual site and look for:
Actual land demarcation
On-ground development progress
Machinery and workforce activity
Construction quality (if work has started)
A physical visit exposes reality behind the marketing.
5. Confirm Payment Plan Authenticity
Genuine payment plans are:
Transparent
Consistent with market prices
Clearly breaking down cost, down payment, and installments
Issued officially by the developer or authorized dealership
Avoid payment plans that seem too cheap or have unclear pricing structures.
6. Check the Dealership’s Authorization
Before booking through an agent or agency, verify that they are:
Officially authorized by the developer
Listed on the project’s official website or brochures
Able to provide an authorization letter or dealership certificate
Working with trusted agencies like Wahid Marketing Network ensures transparent and secure bookings.
7. Understand the Project’s Location & Future Value
Location determines 70% of your property’s future worth.
Verify:
Distance from main landmarks
Future development plans
Nearby commercial activity
Road access and upcoming infrastructure
Government-approved master plans
Good location = long-term appreciation.
8. Read the Booking Form & Terms Carefully
Before signing anything:
Check refund policies
Delivery timeline
Hidden charges
Transfer fees
Maintenance charges
Possession timeline
Never rush — take time to understand every clause.
9. Check Online Reputation & Reviews
Search the project and developer on:
Google
Facebook real estate groups
YouTube reviews
Zameen.com forums
Consistent negative reviews or customer complaints are a major warning sign.
10. Work With a Trusted Real Estate Agency
At the end of the day, your safest choice is dealing with a trusted, authorized, and experienced real estate agency.

Verifies documents for you
