Ask A Lawyer Series: Why Conduct a Land Search?

Conducting a land search at the requisite land Registry or using Ardhisasa is essential for several reasons:

  • Verifying Ownership: It helps confirm the rightful owner of a property, protecting you from potential fraudulent transactions.
  • Identifying Encumbrances: Land searches can reveal any existing liens, mortgages, or easements that may affect the property’s value or use.
  • Assessing Property Boundaries: The records at the Registry or Ardhisasa provides accurate information on property boundaries, preventing disputes and ensuring that you’re purchasing the correct land.
  • Due Diligence: Before investing in a property, conducting a thorough land search is a crucial step in your due diligence process.
