So, in this way, the first step at making our sweet home was done! To sum up, I will advice you to buy a plot from someone you have a relation with, or at least some kind of connection. This really helps in getting the right price, as well as, it minimizes chances of any kind of fraud too.
Before we were thinking of buying the plot, we came to hear about that it is a disputed plot. Now in these kind of situations, you need to confirm the news. We inquired fro our relative, who had connection with the administrative authority concerned, and he asked the local area of jurisdiction, (under which the plot comes) to inquire further through records. He later confirmed that the dispute was indeed there, but later own when we contacted the owner of the plot, he told us that the dispute was over, and showed us the relevant documents, which were confirmed by the local police stations records.
What this did was that the seller, though we already knew him through a connection, became aware that we have had some influence in these matters, and he became more polite towards us after that ! Not that he was rude at the first place, but trust me, contacts do make a difference!
Another point that I would like all of you to pay attention is that, do confirm the authenticity of plot's registration documents by a good lawyer. Again, rather then going by market value or reputation of a lawyer, better first try to find out if you know someone personally, as I sincerely feel that these things do make a lot of difference at the end !
