Buying land togetherसाथ मिलकर ज़मीन ख़रीदना

Two brothers, three friends, a family pooling savings — people often want to buy land together. There is a way to do it where every buyer is named on the sale deed and in the land record, and owns their share directly. This page explains that way, what to agree in writing first, and why it is different from handing money to a scheme that holds the land for you. साथ मिलकर ज़मीन ख़रीदनी है? सबसे साफ़ रास्ता — हर ख़रीदार का नाम रजिस्ट्री और जमाबंदी दोनों में।

Direct joint purchase · सीधी साझा ख़रीद

हर ख़रीदार सीधे मालिक

• Everyone is on the deed. The sale deed names each buyer and, ideally, each buyer’s share.
• Everyone is in the record. After mutation, the jamabandi (or your state’s record of rights) shows each co-owner and their share.
• Nobody holds the land for the others. No company, friend or relative “keeps it in their name” on everyone’s behalf.
• Payment goes to the seller through the bank, from each buyer or on each buyer’s documented behalf — not into one person’s pocket.

Until the land is partitioned, co-owners usually hold undivided shares — nobody owns a specific corner. Read Batwara: partitioning a joint khata before you buy.

Settle these in writing before you pay · पैसा देने से पहले लिखित में तय करें

1. Shares. Who owns what share, and whether it matches what each person paid.
2. Costs. Who pays stamp duty, registration, the advocate, fencing and yearly upkeep — and what happens if someone does not pay.
3. Use. Who farms it, whether it is leased, and how any income or produce is split.
4. Decisions. Which decisions need everyone, and which a majority can take.
5. Exit. If one co-owner wants to sell, do the others get the first chance to buy, at what price and in how long?
6. Partition. Whether and when the land will be divided on the record, and how the parts will be chosen.
7. Death and inheritance. What happens to a share if a co-owner dies — heirs step in; agree how that will work.
8. Disputes. How disagreements will be settled before anyone goes to court.

An advocate can put these into a co-ownership agreement. Its exact form, and what the law in your state lets it do, are questions for the advocate — not for this page.

Why this is not the same as a managed pool · यह “पूल” योजना जैसा क्यों नहीं

AgriZameen does not organise groups, pool money, hold funds or match co-buyers. If a group of you has already decided to buy together, we can help you find land and read its record, as for any buyer.

Buy together with AgriZameen — your own group · अपने ग्रुप के साथ

You bring the group — family, friends, colleagues. We do the legwork a group finds hardest to share out. ग्रुप आपका, भाग-दौड़ हमारी।

1. Tell us what the group wants. How much land, roughly where, and what for — a farmhouse, farming, or holding it. One WhatsApp message is enough to start.
2. We find land that fits. From the live listings, or by asking sellers in the area you want — and if a seller has more land than you need, we ask whether they will sell part (how buying part works).
3. We read the record before anyone pays. The jamabandi for the whole holding, the mutation trail, the map, the land class and any encumbrance — the same checks as for any buyer (Check papers).
4. You settle your shares in writing, with your own advocate — the list is above.
5. Registry in every name, then mutation. We help with the paperwork for a sale deed naming each buyer and their share, and for the mutation that puts each of you in the record. The Sub-Registrar and the revenue office decide; we do not promise a timeline.
6. We make it ready for your use. On a written quote, by our site teams and partner contractors: a boundary wall or fencing and an entry gate, plantation, official demarcation of the revenue boundary (done by the revenue department on application — we apply and attend), marking the land on the ground the way you agree among yourselves, and help applying for water and electricity connections. Marking it among you is your private arrangement, not a legal partition. Building a farmhouse may need a conversion or an approval first — check that before you build.

संक्षेप में: ग्रुप आप बनाइए — परिवार, दोस्त, सहकर्मी। हम ज़मीन ढूँढते हैं, ज़रूरत हो तो किसी बड़ी ज़मीन का हिस्सा पूछते हैं, पैसे से पहले रिकॉर्ड जाँचते हैं, हर ख़रीदार के नाम रजिस्ट्री और नामांतरण के काग़ज़ों में मदद करते हैं, और लिखित कोटेशन पर ज़मीन को इस्तेमाल लायक़ बनाते हैं — चारदीवारी या तारबंदी, गेट, पौधारोपण, सरकारी निशानदेही (आवेदन पर), और पानी-बिजली कनेक्शन के आवेदन में मदद। कोई रिटर्न, मंज़ूरी या समय-सीमा का वादा नहीं।

Still not a pool: we do not form groups, match strangers, collect money for a group or hold land for anyone. The whole route, alone or together: small or partial farmland, made easy →
