Affidavit of Property Ownership Format in Urdu

When is an affidavit of property ownership needed?

Banks, utility companies, development authorities and courts sometimes want a sworn statement that a property belongs to the person applying and carries no mortgage, loan, dispute or court order. It is asked for with a loan application, a new electricity or gas connection, a building plan, or when a property is offered as surety.

Where it goes

It goes to the office that asked for it, attached to copies of the title papers: the registered deed, the record of rights from the land record office, or the allotment and transfer letters of a housing society or authority. The affidavit confirms what those papers show. It does not prove ownership without them.

Points to get right

• Describe the property the same way the title papers do: plot or khasra number, area, and its mauza, scheme or society.
• If there is any loan or charge on it, declare it. Saying a mortgaged property is free of charge is a serious false statement.
• If the property is owned jointly, every owner should be named, and usually every owner signs.
• Attach an up-to-date copy of the record. Offices do not rely on an old one.

Before you sign

These are general formats to save typing. Requirements differ between offices, courts and provinces, and a paper about property or money has legal effect. Have the final wording checked by a deed writer or lawyer, use stamp paper of the correct value, and get the paper attested or registered where that is required.
