Hi I am purchasing an apartment unit from a real estate company. They are providing this from a third person X (whom they call as their own investor) and through transfer of assignment. The house is still being built by the builder but more that 20% amount is already paid by the third person X. Now they ask me to give a cheque of booking amount with the name of X. later they will ask for a check of remaining amout of 20% with another cheque. for the booking amount they will give a receipt with their name. on the second cheque realization they will again give a receipt and signed copy of agreement. Then they will take the loan (80%) sanction latter and these payment proofs to the builder and get a transfer of assignment, that is between me, third person X and builder. All this looks okay, but if they are not true to their words then what to do? How can I prevent any fraud chances by taking care of legal proofs. Please advise me. I am from Bangalore.
