In any property transaction, a deposit is a serious commitment—and buyers should ensure key checks are completed before funds move. At minimum, confirm the seller’s authority to sell, verify title and ownership details, and ensure the property description matches the legal documentation.
Buyers should also request clarity on timelines, conditions of sale, and any outstanding issues that could delay transfer (such as estate processes, missing paperwork, or municipal compliance). A structured process protects both local and diaspora buyers, reduces fraud risk, and prevents costly surprises.
HSP Realty encourages buyers to work with professionals and to insist on clear written communication, verified banking details, and a documented audit trail throughout the transaction.
