Tamil Nadu Legal Opinion
Expert assessment of property title and legal status
Overview
A property legal opinion is a written declaration by a qualified real-estate advocate confirming that a seller has clear, marketable title. The lawyer studies the chain of deeds, encumbrance certificates, tax receipts, court filings and zoning rules to be sure there are no hidden mortgages, forged links, boundary disputes or statutory violations. Lenders treat this opinion as a safety net before approving home loans; buyers rely on it to avoid costly litigation; developers use it to attract investors. In short, a legal opinion converts a bundle of confusing land papers into one clear “yes” (or a list of defects to fix) so every party can proceed with confidence.
