All Property Services

Records & Title

Revenue records / paperwork check

We compare the Patta, Chitta and Adangal with the registered parent deed and look for differences in owner names, extents, survey numbers or land use. You get a clear list of any mismatches, so they can be corrected before you commit money or go ahead with a sale.

Registration & Transfers

Property registration support

We prepare and review the sale deed and supporting papers, check that stamp duty and registration charges reflect the applicable value, and coordinate your visit to the Sub-Registrar's office. The registration itself is carried out by the Registration Department once the documents are in order.

Registration & Transfers

Patta / Chitta transfer and update

We first check whether the Patta update is progressing through the registration and revenue process or needs a separate application. Where manual action is needed, we prepare the supporting documents, coordinate any required survey and follow up with the revenue authorities until the records are updated.

Buying & Selling

Identify sellers and market analysis

We help you find suitable properties and genuine sellers in your preferred locality, share local price information and comparable sales, and help you shortlist. This lets you see what is available, and what is reasonable, before you spend time on site visits.

Buying & Selling

Property site visits

We arrange and accompany site visits and look at layout, condition, access and surroundings with you. We note visible issues and questions to raise with the seller. A site visit does not replace title and records checks, which we suggest doing alongside it.

Records & Title

Title verification and legal opinion

We collect and organise the sale deeds, parent deeds, Patta, encumbrance certificates, survey details and approvals, often going back several decades, so that your advocate can give a written opinion on title. Pinewood coordinates the documents; the legal opinion itself comes from your advocate.

Tax, Finance & Valuation

TDS consulting

Where a property is bought above the prescribed value, tax has to be deducted at source and deposited. We coordinate the transaction-side paperwork, including Form 26QB and the certificate to the seller. The tax computation and filing are handled by your chartered accountant where required.

Registration & Transfers

EB / water / property-tax name transfer

After a purchase, electricity, water connections and property-tax accounts stay in the previous owner's name until they are changed. We gather the documents, submit the name-transfer applications to each department and follow them up, so bills and notices come to the new owner.

Tax, Finance & Valuation

Bank loan assistance

We help prepare the property and personal documents a lender asks for in a home loan or other property loan, check them for errors that could cause delays, and coordinate with the bank. Approval, interest rate and terms are decided by the lender.

Tax, Finance & Valuation

Project Finance Documentation

We help coordinate the documentation required for project finance and promoter or developer funding, including project records, approvals, financial information and lender-facing paperwork for construction and bank finance. Loan approval and commercial terms remain the lender’s decision.

Records & Title

Rectifying land records

Where title documents, encumbrance certificates or survey records do not match the current ownership or extent, we identify the error, prepare the supporting papers and coordinate the correction with the revenue authorities. Timelines depend on the department and the type of error.

Records & Title

Legal Heir Certificate Coordination

We help coordinate the application for a Legal Heir Certificate, used for inheritance and to show the legal heirs: gathering the family and death records, preparing the application and following up with the tahsildar or revenue department. The certificate itself is issued by the competent government authority.

Records & Title

Legal Heir & Co-owner Documentation

We help identify and organise the documents required where inherited or jointly owned property involves multiple legal heirs, co-owners or signatories. This can include ownership records, inheritance and relationship documents, consent requirements and transaction-related documentation.

Approvals & Compliance

Pending regularisation clearance

We review whether a property or layout has pending approvals, such as a building plan approval, occupancy certificate or regularisation of an unapproved plot, and prepare the papers where the property may be eligible. The authority decides eligibility, charges and timelines.

Tax, Finance & Valuation

Market rate study

We compare recent sales of similar properties, guideline values, local trends and access to amenities to give you a realistic price range. This helps you set an asking price that attracts genuine buyers and supports your negotiation.

Tax, Finance & Valuation

Property valuation

We coordinate a valuation by a qualified valuer, who looks at location, size, condition and recent sales nearby. The valuation is performed and certified by the valuer where required, and the report can support pricing, a sale, a loan or a family settlement.

Buying & Selling

Identify buyers

We use our local network to find and reach prospective buyers and screen enquiries, so you speak with serious buyers who have the documents and funds needed. For NRI owners this is done on your behalf while you are abroad.

Buying & Selling

Negotiation support

We help you assess offers, counteroffers and payment terms against market rates, and manage communication between the parties. Once terms are agreed, we help record them in writing so they carry into the sale agreement.

Tax, Finance & Valuation

Sell mortgaged property

If the property is mortgaged, we find out the outstanding amount and the lender's closure requirements, sequence the buyer's payment with the loan closure, and coordinate the no-objection certificate (NOC) and the release of the original documents and the charge.

Tax, Finance & Valuation

Tax consulting

We help you understand capital gains on a property sale, possible exemptions and, for NRIs, the paperwork involved in repatriation of sale proceeds abroad. Your chartered accountant computes the actual tax; we help gather documents and plan the timing.

Survey & Land

Encroachment resolution

Where boundaries are unclear or someone has built on or used your land, we check the position against your records, arrange a boundary survey and gather the evidence. We then coordinate with your advocate and the authorities on the appropriate complaint or approach.

Survey & Land

Patta sub-division

Dividing land among co-owners or heirs, or selling part of it (subdivision), needs separate Pattas. We coordinate the survey by a licensed surveyor, verify the documents, prepare and submit the sub-division application, and follow up with the revenue authorities. The decision rests with the authority.

Property Deeds

Rectification deed

Errors in owner names, extents, survey numbers or the property schedule can cause trouble later. A rectification deed corrects them by agreement of the parties. We help identify the errors, coordinate drafting with your advocate and register the deed at the Sub-Registrar's office.

Property Deeds

Ratification deed

When a sale, lease or transfer was signed without proper authority, a ratification deed can confirm it afterwards. We help review the earlier document, coordinate the consent of the rightful owners and prepare the deed with your advocate for registration.

Property Deeds

Settlement deed

A settlement deed transfers property to family members such as a spouse, children or legal heirs, and typically takes effect straight away, unlike a will. We help gather documents, coordinate drafting with your advocate, arrange stamp duty and registration, and follow up the Patta update.

Property Deeds

Partition deed

When several co-owners hold a property, a partition deed divides it so that each owner has a separate share. We coordinate the survey, verify the documents, arrange drafting with your advocate and registration, and follow up the individual Pattas afterwards where applicable.

Property Deeds

Declaration deed

A declaration deed records ownership, rights or family facts when no other document does, for example to clarify an inheritance or a self-acquired property. We help gather supporting papers and coordinate drafting with your advocate and registration.

Property Deeds

Gift Deed

We coordinate the documents and advocate drafting required for a Gift Deed when property is transferred voluntarily, for example within the family, without consideration. We also support registration and related record-update follow-up where required.

Property Deeds

Release / Relinquishment Deed

We coordinate the documentation and advocate drafting for release or relinquishment of rights in property jointly owned with co-owners or inherited. We support registration and related record updates where required.

Development

Zoning regulations and land-parcel identification

We identify land parcels with development potential and check the zoning, land-use, master-plan and density rules that apply to them. Doing this first helps a promoter avoid buying land that cannot be used as planned.

Survey & Land

Land survey

We coordinate a licensed surveyor to measure your land and mark its boundaries and area against the title deed and revenue records. The survey work itself is carried out by the appropriate licensed surveyor. It helps before buying, dividing or developing land, and when resolving a boundary question.

Survey & Land

FMB sketch

The Field Measurement Book (FMB) sketch shows a plot's boundaries and divisions as recorded by the Survey Department. We help obtain the sketch and compare it with the title deed, so differences in shape or extent are found early. Any fresh measurement is done by a licensed surveyor.

Approvals & Compliance

Legal compliance (RERA, DTCP, CMDA)

We identify which regulatory requirements apply to your project across RERA, DTCP, CMDA and related authorities, such as registrations, approvals, environmental or fire clearances and building rules. We help organise the documentation and follow up with your professionals. Each authority makes its own decision.

Approvals & Compliance

Layout Approval Coordination

We coordinate the documentation, plans, submissions and follow-up required for layout approval of a plot layout or subdivision with the relevant planning authority, such as DTCP or CMDA. Approval itself remains the decision of the competent authority.

Approvals & Compliance

RERA Registration & Ongoing Compliance

We coordinate the documents and professional inputs required for RERA project registration by the promoter and ongoing compliance activities, including periodic (quarterly) project updates where applicable. Registration and acceptance remain subject to the competent RERA authority.

Approvals & Compliance

Land conversion approval

Agricultural land needs a change of land use before it can be developed. We help prepare and submit the application to the local authority and coordinate the related concurrences, where the rules allow. The authorities decide, and the process varies by location.

Development

Project scope and study

We help define the project scope and timeline and gather inputs for feasibility, such as land, approvals, cost and market information, for your consultants to assess. The feasibility conclusions come from the professionals you engage.

Approvals & Compliance

Building plan approval

We coordinate the paperwork for building plan approval and planning permission: drawings and structural plans from your architect and engineer, together with the compliance documents the planning authority asks for. We follow up submissions and queries; the approval decision rests with the authority.

Development

JV agreement

We help you look for suitable joint venture partners and coordinate the drafting of joint venture agreements, MoUs and joint development agreements with your advocate, covering roles, timelines and revenue sharing.

NRI Services

Power of Attorney for NRIs

A Power of Attorney (PoA) lets a trusted person act for you in India while you are abroad. We help prepare it, coordinate signing and attestation as required in your country, and support stamping and registration in Tamil Nadu, so it can be used for a purchase, a sale or managing your property.

NRI Services

Property Repatriation / FEMA Paperwork

For NRIs moving property sale proceeds abroad, we help you understand the NRO to NRE and repatriation steps and prepare the documents, such as Form 15CA and 15CB, tax clearance and bank requirements, with your chartered accountant. Limits and procedures are set by RBI and FEMA rules.

NRI Services

Lower Deduction Certificate for NRI Sellers

When a non-resident sells property, tax (TDS) is generally deducted at source from the sale amount. In some cases a lower-deduction certificate can be sought from the Income Tax Department. We help organise the documents and coordinate with your chartered accountant, who handles the tax side. The department decides the outcome.

Property Management & Improvements

Property Maintenance & Repair Coordination

Routine upkeep and repairs for your property, coordinated by our team and sometimes called facility management. We arrange the vendors, supervise the work and keep you updated, so the property stays in good condition while you are away.

Property Management & Improvements

Property & Vacant Plot Inspections

We coordinate periodic property care for vacant homes, buildings or land, including remote owners' properties: checks for access, maintenance, dumping, vegetation, fencing, visible encroachment and other issues, with updates to the owner. Any survey, repair or legal action needed is handled separately through the appropriate professionals or authorities.

Property Management & Improvements

Tenant Screening & Management

We help you find and screen tenants, check their background and rental history, and coordinate the rent agreement and renewals. During the tenancy we follow up on rent and coordinate maintenance requests.

Buying & Selling

Property Marketing & Advertising

We create property listings on suitable platforms, arrange photography and virtual tours, run targeted campaigns to reach tenants or buyers, and handle enquiries and showings.

Property Management & Improvements

Kitchen Repair & Refurbishment

We help plan and coordinate the repair, renovation or upgrade of a kitchen, such as cabinets, countertops or remodelling the layout, and supervise the appointed contractors against your needs and budget.

Property Management & Improvements

We coordinate the repair, renovation or remodelling of a bathroom, from layout and fixtures to storage and finishes, and supervise the appointed contractors from planning to completion.

Property Management & Improvements

We inspect to find the source of a leak or leakage, such as roofing, plumbing or seepage through walls, and coordinate sealing, pipe repair or replacement and waterproofing.

We coordinate improvements to outdoor areas such as patios, decks, gazebos and gardens, from design ideas to execution by the appointed contractors, using durable materials.

Property Management & Improvements

We coordinate a rooftop solar installation with a suitable vendor: site assessment, solar panel and system design, and connection to your existing power supply. We can also guide you through subsidy and net-metering applications where these are available.

Property Management & Improvements

We coordinate the design and installation of a reverse osmosis system, water purifier or other water-treatment and filtration setup with a suitable vendor, from a feasibility check to installation and ongoing maintenance arrangements.
