4 things to check before buying a flat in Dhaka

Buying a flat is one of the biggest decisions of your life. Here is a short checklist to help you choose with confidence.

1. Check the land documents

Ask for the land title deed, mutation record, tax receipts and the approved building plan. A trusted developer will share these openly.

2. Look at the developer's track record

Visit completed projects, speak to existing owners and confirm the handover timeline of earlier work.

3. Understand the location

Road width, nearby schools, hospitals, public transport and future development all affect long-term value.

4. Confirm the payment schedule

Get the booking money, instalments and handover charges in writing before you sign.
