Sir:

One has to examine the title of the land, the dues if any upon the land, if the person selling the land is not the person in whose name the title is then the link between the two. in fact, one should seek the services of a professional in this regard.

Re: documents to be verified for purchase of land

You should examine title documents of the owner for the last 30 years. It may be better if the 'title verification' is done by a local lawyer after depositing the requisite fee in the office of collector.
