Seven Documents to Check Before Paying a Token

A practical starting checklist for buyers before committing money.

Seven Documents to Check Before Paying a Token

A token payment may feel like a small step, but it can create pressure before ownership, dues and authority have been checked.

Ownership trail

Review the title chain and confirm the seller’s identity and authority to transact.

Dues and records

Check available property-tax, utility, society or maintenance records relevant to the property.

Terms in writing

Record what the token represents, the refund conditions, the timeline and the documents still pending review.

What to remember

  • Do not rely only on verbal assurances.
  • Use an appropriate lawyer for legal verification.
  • Keep payment evidence and signed terms.

Good real-estate decisions begin with clear information, local context and documents that can be verified.
