Hello! I’m looking to buy a small plot of land in Thiruvananthapuram, about 4 cents in size. The seller says he doesn’t have the original title deed, but he has a certified copy. Is it okay to proceed with the purchase in this situation?

It’s advisable to proceed with caution. While a certified copy of the title deed can be a valid document, you should verify its authenticity with the relevant authorities like the Sub-Registrar’s office. It’s crucial to ensure the seller’s claim of ownership and the legitimacy of the certified copy before proceeding with the purchase.
