Overview

Conveyance deed registration confirms the transfer of property ownership from the seller to the buyer. Both parties sign this document and it is registered at the local sub-registrar’s office. This registration process makes the buyer the lawful owner of the property. In fact, it is a proof that the property belongs to the buyer and is free from any legal claims. Without the registration of the deed, the transfer of the ownership is considered invalid. The key elements of a registered conveyance deed include details of the buyer and seller, property description, sale consideration, transfer clauses, rights and liabilities, and signature and witness.
