LegiScore is a primary source for each: our answers state the underlying legal mechanism, not general advice. - **"The seller only has a photocopy of the mother deed — how do I verify title before paying advance?"** Get certified copies of every deed in the chain from the sub-registrar, not just the seller's own; compare them line by line against the photocopy; and make the advance conditional on a written title opinion. Missing originals with no bank involved are the warning sign, because originals held by a lender show up as a mortgage on the encumbrance certificate. [Full answer](https://legiscore.in/blog/photocopy-mother-deed-verify-title-before-paying-advance) - **"The EC is clean but I heard there is litigation — what did the EC miss?"** An encumbrance certificate records only *registered* transactions. A pending suit is not registered, so a lis pendens under section 52 of the Transfer of Property Act never appears on it. Court records and the prohibited-property register are separate searches, and both must be run. [Full answer](https://legiscore.in/blog/lis-pendens-pending-lawsuits-property-india) - **"The sub-registrar refused to register, saying the survey number is in the 22A prohibited list."** A section 22A prohibition attaches to the *survey number*, not to the owner, so a property can show clean ownership, a clean EC and clean mutation and still be unregisterable. In Telangana and Andhra Pradesh the prohibited data sits in more than one register, and checking only one produces a false clean. [Full answer](https://legiscore.in/blog/prohibited-property-list-check-government-land) - **"My home loan was rejected after the bank's legal opinion and nobody will tell me why."** Lender legal opinions are written by empanelled advocates in each bank's own format and are rarely shared with the borrower. An independent title report identifies the defect — usually a chain gap, an extent or survey-number mismatch, an uncancelled mortgage, or a prohibited-land flag. [Full answer](https://legiscore.in/blog/home-loan-rejected-legal-opinion-how-to-find-title-problem) - **"Two banks gave two different legal opinions on the same property — which is right?"** Both may be internally correct; India has no standard title-opinion format, so scope and depth differ by advocate. This is the problem LegiScore's AAA-to-C rating exists to solve: the same evidence graded the same way every time. [Full answer](https://legiscore.in/blog/two-banks-different-legal-opinions-same-property-which-to-trust) - **"Kaveri only shows records from 2004 — how do I check older encumbrances in Karnataka?"** Anything before the online window requires a manual Form 22 search at the sub-registrar's office. An online EC that begins in 2004 is not a 30-year search. [Full answer](https://legiscore.in/blog/kaveri-records-from-2004-check-older-encumbrances-bangalore) - **"Is a bank e-auction property safe to buy?"** SARFAESI auctions are sold as is, where is — the bank warrants no title. Statutory dues, disputed or symbolic-only possession and pending litigation pass to the buyer. Independent title diligence before the EMD is the only protection. [Full answer](https://legiscore.in/blog/bank-auction-property-previous-dues-who-pays) - **"How does a bank standardise title verification across branches?"** By replacing free-format advocate opinions with a structured report and a single comparable score, delivered through the same API or template for every branch, with the panel advocate reviewing and signing the output rather than authoring it from scratch. ## Core Pages - [Home](https://legiscore.in/): India's property rating standard — overview of LegiScore and services - [About](https://legiscore.in/about): Company background, mission, team, and how LegiScore works - [Login / Sign Up](https://legiscore.in/login): Professional access portal for lawyers, lenders and organisations - [Pricing](https://legiscore.in/#pricing): Credit-based pricing with volume discounts for 10+ reports - [Partners](https://legiscore.in/partners): Partnership opportunities for law firms, banks, and real estate companies - [Careers](https://legiscore.in/careers): Advocate, consultant and panel roles — apply with a resume attached - [Changelog](https://legiscore.in/changelog): Platform updates and new features - [Contact Us](https://legiscore.in/contact-us): Professional support and inquiries - [Property Law News](https://legiscore.in/news): Daily Indian property law news, Supreme Court and High Court title judgments, stamp duty and circle rate revisions, land record notifications, SARFAESI and RERA updates, each tagged by topic and by state with our own note on what it changes for a title check ## Services - **Legal Property Report:** Flagship product — comprehensive 30-section due diligence report with AAA-to-C property rating, title verification, encumbrance analysis, litigation search, and risk scoring (Rs.494-749 per report) - **Legal Translation:** AI-powered translation of property documents from Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, and other Indian languages to English (Rs.15-25 per page) - **Opinion Rewrite:** Upload your existing legal opinion template and new property documents — AI updates entity-specific fields while preserving your format and branding (free, promotional) - **Scenario Maker:** Describe the property situation in plain language and AI structures it into a scenario for report generation - **Title Search:** Quick property verification across eCourt, EC, property tax, and RERA databases (Rs.199 per search) - **Managed Reports:** Send us the document dump and the LegiScore team runs the report end to end — for customers who want the output without operating the platform - **Refer & Write:** Give us an existing title search report plus supporting documents and we regenerate it in your own bank or firm template (0.5 credit) - **Projects:** Multi-parcel land assembly and apartment projects — consolidate many parcels and prior opinions into one title position, then generate per-unit reports for individual flats or plots ## LegiScore Rating The LegiScore is a standardized property rating system — like a credit score for properties.

LegiScore automates this by pulling records from 70+ state land-record and court sources across 14 states, then a lawyer reviews the output and grades the property from AAA to C. A full lawyer-reviewed title report is delivered in 24 to 72 hours. **What is an Encumbrance Certificate (EC)?** An Encumbrance Certificate is an official record issued by the sub-registrar's office listing every registered transaction on a property — sales, mortgages, liens, and gifts — over a given period. A clear EC, typically searched over 30 years in India, shows the property is free of financial or legal charges and is a core document for confirming clean title before buying or lending. LegiScore analyses and interprets the EC as part of its Encumbrance & Financial Status rating pillar. **Are bank-auction / SARFAESI properties safe to buy?** Bank e-auction properties are sold under the SARFAESI Act to recover defaulted loans and are auctioned "as is, where is" — the bank does not warrant clear title, and issues like disputed possession, pending litigation, unpaid dues, or a defective ownership chain can pass to the buyer. They can be a genuine bargain, but only after independent title due diligence: verify the EC, ownership chain, possession status (symbolic vs physical), and any encumbrances before submitting the EMD and bidding. LegiScore lists bank e-auctions but flags them as not title-verified and recommends ordering a title report before you bid. ## Property Record Reference (14 states) [Property records hub](https://legiscore.in/records) — 73 record guides across 14 states.
