What is an Agreement to Sale?
An Agreement to Sale is the foundational legal document in any property transaction. It outlines the terms and conditions under which the seller agrees to sell the property to the buyer, and the buyer agrees to purchase it.
Unlike a Sale Deed (which confirms the final transfer of ownership), the Agreement to Sale dictates the roadmap of the transaction—including payment schedules, handover timelines, penalty clauses, and dispute resolution methods. A flawlessly drafted agreement is your primary shield against property fraud.

FAQ'S
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. An Agreement to Sale is a promise to transfer property in the future under certain conditions. A Sale Deed is the actual document that immediately transfers the ownership. You first execute the Agreement, and later the Sale Deed.
Yes, under the Maharashtra Ownership Flats Act (MOFA) and RERA, registering an Agreement to Sale is mandatory. Without registration, it is not considered valid evidence in court.
This is exactly why drafting is crucial. A well-drafted agreement includes specific penalty clauses. Usually, if the buyer backs out, they lose the token amount. If the seller backs out, they must refund the token amount along with a predefined penalty.
Yes, in Maharashtra, the applicable stamp duty is usually paid during the registration of the Agreement to Sale. When the final Sale Deed is executed later, you only pay a nominal fee (usually ₹100) since the main duty was already paid.
