Property / Plot Registry Procedure in Sindh.

A registry is a written agreement on official stamp papers between parties for sale and purchase of a property.

If you have recently purchased a property in any city of Sindh province
(Karachi, Hyderabad, Sukkur, Larkana….)
and now want to get it registered on your name. For the registry of land, plot or flat you will have to go with the seller of the property to the sub-registrar branch of the concerned authority i.e. DHA, KDA etc
to register the property in your name.
Earlier we have discussed registry procedure in Punjab in another post.
Procedure in all provinces of Pakistan is almost similar but the type of documents required may vary from place to place.
