Before you buy in Zirakpur & Derabassi: a checklist

1. Visit at peak hours: congestion at the highway junctions is a common complaint.
2. Ask how water supply works in the building and whether the society is handed over to residents.
3. Match the RERA registration number on the brochure with the regulator's website, and read the project's latest quarterly update.
4. Ask for the approved layout or building plan and the licence or change-of-land-use approval for the colony.
5. Check the title and any loan or encumbrance on the land before paying a booking amount.
6. Compare the price with the collector rate, which decides your stamp duty.
7. For a ready flat, ask for the completion or occupation certificate; for an under-construction one, the possession date registered with RERA.
