Overseas Friends Hurry Up And Call

Always meet in a safe, public location—preferably during daylight hours. Locations such as cafes, commercial plazas, outside bank branches or in an office of a real estate agency are ideal.

Do not make any payment before proper verification of the property, completion of all legal formalities, and due diligence with the respective authorities.

Inspect the property thoroughly and ensure all details match what's listed in the advertisement.

Be cautious of offers that seem too good to be true. Unrealistically low prices may be a sign of a scam.

Verify property ownership documents, including title deeds, registry, and CNIC of the seller/agent.

Check for encumbrances or disputes by consulting with a legal advisor or relevant land authority.

Never go alone when visiting a property. Take a trusted person along for added security.

Avoid sharing sensitive personal or financial information unless the other party is verified and trustworthy.
