Start with the documents
Before comparing prices, confirm ownership, boundaries, permitted land use and access to basic services. These checks reduce legal and construction risk.
- Review title documents.
- Confirm land use.
- Ask about water, power and road access.

|---|---|---|---|

| Liens and debts | Lien certificate and current property-tax record | Notary, Registry and municipality | Before signing a purchase agreement |
| Land use and utilities | Written land-use and utility feasibility records | Municipal authority and utility providers | Before design or budgeting |
| Boundaries and dimensions | Plan, cadastral data and survey | Cadastre office and surveyor | Before closing |

Evaluate the area
A strong land purchase depends on location, future growth and the cost of making the property build-ready.
Negotiate with clarity
Request all conditions in writing, including payment schedule, closing costs and delivery dates for documentation.
