Essential insights into securing your real estate investments through professional legal verification.
Is Due Diligence necessary for new properties from reputed builders?
+
Absolutely. Reputation does not eliminate underlying risks like unclear land titles, joint development
complexities, pending RERA approvals, or deviations from sanctioned plans. Our audit ensures that all
regulatory approvals are valid and that the project is fully compliant across all governing bodies.
How is a property under Power of Attorney (POA) handled?
+
We verify the registration, authenticity, and legal scope of the POA. We ensure the document hasn't been
revoked and that the principal is still alive, as a POA becomes invalid upon the death of the grantor. We
also validate its enforceability under specific Indian laws for NRIs or corporate entities.
My bank is doing a legal check for a loan. Is that sufficient?
+
Not necessarily. A bank’s legal check is designed to protect their loan interest, not your equity. Banks may
overlook issues like minor plan violations or road-widening risks that don't hinder mortgage recovery but
could drastically affect your future resale value or usage rights.
What if the seller lacks the required legal documents?
+
Missing documents are a red flag but can often be resolved. WillGemini offers an additional service to
procure certified copies directly from the Sub-Registrar, Municipal Corporations, or Revenue Departments to
bridge the documentation gap and move your deal forward.
How are mortgages or legal claims verified?
+
We perform a multi-layer search to ensure no third-party rights exist:
- Encumbrance Certificate (EC) from the Sub-Registrar’s office.
- CERSAI Database for active bank mortgage and loan records.
- Court Litigation Search across District and High Courts for pending cases.
- MCA/ROC Search for company charges if the seller is an entity.
Does due diligence include a physical site inspection?
+
Our core service is documentation-driven. However, physical inspections for structural, environmental, or
boundary verification can be arranged as add-ons. We also utilize satellite mapping and partner engineering
teams to check for encroachments or access path issues when required.
How does a due diligence report differ from a property valuation?
+
Valuation focuses on market price based on location and amenities. Due diligence examines the legal
health—ownership flow, compliance, and litigation. While we don’t provide a price estimate, our
report gives you the legal leverage to negotiate the price or exit a risky deal.
Can the due diligence process be customized for my specific concerns?
+
Yes. Our services are modular. For plots, we emphasize land conversion and access rights; for apartments, we
focus on RERA and Occupancy Certificates; for commercial units, we audit lease encumbrances and FSI
utilization. We tailor the scope to provide the detail you need without unnecessary overhead.
