Real Estate Law

At Barowalia & Associates, we provide comprehensive legal solutions in real estate and property matters, with specialised knowledge of the unique legal and regulatory environment of Himachal Pradesh. Our real estate practice serves individuals, families, developers, institutions, and investors involved in property transactions, development projects, and litigation.
Real estate in Himachal Pradesh is governed not only by central laws but also by state-specific statutes such as the Himachal Pradesh Tenancy and Land Reforms Act, 1972, and related land ceiling and land use regulations. Our firm has deep familiarity with these legal frameworks, allowing us to provide precise, compliant, and strategic counsel tailored to the needs of clients operating within the state.
Key Services:
• Property Due Diligence & Title Verification: We conduct thorough title searches, revenue record verification, and legal scrutiny to ensure clean and marketable title before any transaction is undertaken.
• Purchase, Sale & Lease Agreements: We draft and review sale deeds, lease agreements, agreements to sell, and related documents to safeguard our clients’ interests while ensuring full legal compliance.
• Land Use & Conversion Approvals: We assist in obtaining necessary permissions for land use change, land conversion, and development in accordance with the Himachal Pradesh Town and Country Planning Act, and other applicable local laws.
• Restrictions on Non-Agricultural Land Ownership: Himachal Pradesh imposes restrictions on land ownership by non-agriculturists under Section 118 of the H.P. Tenancy and Land Reforms Act. Our team advises on legal procedures to seek permissions from the Government of Himachal Pradesh and facilitates lawful acquisition.
• Land Disputes & Litigation: We represent clients in disputes related to ownership, possession, encroachment, boundary demarcation, adverse possession, and partition. We appear before revenue authorities, civil courts, and appellate forums to assert or defend property rights.
• Real Estate Development & Joint Ventures: We provide legal structuring for real estate development projects, including drafting of MoUs, joint development agreements, and handling compliance with local planning and environmental laws.
• Mutation, Registration & Revenue Records: Our firm facilitates mutation, registration of property, and rectification of land revenue records through appropriate legal channels, ensuring that all transactions are correctly recorded.
