Property & Real Estate Law
Title verification, transfer disputes and property litigation. Irfan Mir Halepota & Associates represents clients in this area before the relevant Karachi courts and tribunals.
Property disputes in Karachi are rarely just about the transaction in front of you — they're about a chain of title, competing claims, or documentation that doesn't hold up under scrutiny. Before any purchase, we verify title and encumbrances; where a dispute has already arisen, we litigate possession, ownership and specific performance claims.
What this covers
- Title verification and due diligence before purchase
- Sale, gift and transfer documentation
- Possession and ownership disputes
- Specific performance of agreements to sell
- Fraudulent transfer and cancellation of documents
- Real estate litigation before civil courts
Where we appear
- District & Civil Courts, Karachi
- High Court of Sindh (Real Estate Litigation)
- Revenue authorities (Sub-Registrar offices)
Forum selection and limitation periods are often decided in the first conversation about a matter — the earlier we're involved, the more options remain open.
Common questions
What should I check before buying property in Karachi?
Chain of title, any pending litigation or attachment, and whether the seller's documentation is consistent with revenue records. We run this verification before you commit funds, not after.
The seller won't complete a transfer we've already paid for — what are our options?
A suit for specific performance is generally the route, alongside interim relief to prevent the property being sold to someone else while the case is pending.
