Verify before you invest.
Property purchases in Nepal represent major capital investments. Kaltade conducts comprehensive on-ground technical due diligence, boundary verification, municipal setback audits, and structural inspections before you sign.
Important Notice on Technical Due Diligence & Legal Title Verification
Technical/property due diligence does not replace legal title verification or advice from qualified legal professionals. Legal and government-record verification shall be carried out through the appropriate authorities and professionals.
Kaltade Engineering Services Pvt. Ltd. provides physical, structural, setback, Cadastral trace discrepancy, and market valuation assessments. Official land title ownership history, court litigation checks, encumbrances (Rokka/Dharauti), and formal conveyancing should be conducted in coordination with licensed Advocates and the Land Revenue Office (Malpot Karyalaya).
What Our Due Diligence Covers
We thoroughly evaluate 10 critical technical, spatial, and financial parameters before you execute a property purchase.
Property Identification & Parcel Match
Confirming the physical site matches the Kitta number (Plot number) on the Lalpurja and Cadastral sheet.
Physical Field Inspection
Direct examination of terrain, natural ground levels, orientation/facing, neighborhood developments, and drainage.
Electronic Field Measurement
High-precision boundary measurement verifying whether on-ground dimensions match Lalpurja area.
Building Structural Assessment
Inspecting RCC framing integrity, load-bearing walls, crack patterns, built age, and material soundness.
Road Access & Right-of-Way Verification
Checking municipal road categorization, actual physical width, statutory setbacks, and expansion plans.
Municipal & Regulatory Document Review
Review of municipal building approval (Naxa Paas), completion certificate (Nirman Sampanna), and tax receipts.
Development Potential & Zoning Check
Analyzing maximum permissible Ground Coverage, Floor Area Ratio (FAR), height limits, and future zoning.
Technical & Utility Feasibility
Verifying high-tension power line clearances, river/canal buffer setbacks, and storm water disposal outfalls.
Engineering Valuation & Price Check
Calculating fair market value vs government rate (Malpot rate) to ensure you are not overpaying.
Micro-Market & Liquidity Assessment
Analyzing recent transactions in the immediate neighborhood to evaluate resale liquidity and rental potential.
Costly Property Risks Prevented by Technical Diligence
Real estate disputes in Nepal often arise from unverified boundaries, undisclosed municipal setbacks, and unapproved buildings. Here is what our diligence safeguards you against:
Encroachment & Kitta Mismatch
Buying a plot that is physically different or overlapping neighboring boundaries due to unverified trace maps.
Undisclosed Road Expansion Setbacks
Losing 3 to 10 meters of valuable frontage to upcoming municipality or highway right-of-way expansions.
Illegal / Unapproved Floor Additions
Purchasing a building with unapproved floors that cannot be mortgaged or legally transferred.
High-Tension Wire & River Buffer Restrictions
Parcels rendered unbuildable due to mandatory statutory clearances for electricity corridors or irrigation canals.
Severe Artificial Price Inflation
Overpaying up to 40% above fair market value due to speculative broker hype without empirical valuation.
Waterlogging & Low-Lying Fill Pitfalls
Unforeseen land filling and foundation stabilization expenses running into millions of rupees.
The Technical Due Diligence Deliverable
Upon completing field inspection and document review, you receive a bound and signed Technical Due Diligence Memorandum complete with survey drawings, photographic proof, setback clearance status, and fair market valuation.
