A Sale Deed is the most important legal document that officially transfers ownership of property from the seller to the buyer. It’s governed by the Transfer of Property Act, 1882 and becomes legally binding only once registered under the Registration Act, 1908 at the local Sub-Registrar Office.
In Karnataka, it is virtually impossible to claim ownership of a property without a properly stamped and registered Sale Deed. This document legally records the sale transaction, making it enforceable in a court of law.
