Selling your property: pricing, staging and closing the deal

Price your property based on recent comparable sales in the same ward or tole rather than asking-price listings, which are often inflated. An independent valuation can help set a defensible, realistic price.

Gather your documents early: lalpurja, tax clearance, building permit (naksha pass) if applicable, and any prior sale deeds. Buyers and their advisors will ask for these before making a serious offer.

Simple staging — good lighting, a tidy exterior, clear access — measurably improves buyer interest during site visits, especially for overseas buyers reviewing video walkthroughs.

Once a buyer is serious, move quickly on the bainapatra to secure the deposit, and keep close communication with both parties' representatives to avoid delays at the registration office.
