How much should I budget for registration and transfer costs?

I’m buying a flat for 85 lakhs. Besides the purchase price, what are the additional costs I should budget for? Registration fees, stamp duty, lawyer fees, etc.

I’ve heard the total additional cost can be 8-12% of the property value. Is that accurate?

I think the key takeaway here is to take your time and not rush into any property purchase.

Good points but I think you missed one important factor: the quality of construction varies HUGELY between developers.

What’s the community’s opinion on buying during Ramadan? I’ve heard sellers are more willing to negotiate.

Has anyone consulted a lawyer about this? I think professional legal advice would be worth the investment.

Very well written. I’m saving this for future reference. Everyone should read this before buying property.
